Plugging in the Power Cord and Turning the Power On

Before connecting the machine to a computer, connect the machine's power cord and turn the machine on.

WARNING

  • Do not use any power sources other than those that match the specifications shown in this manual. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock.

  • Do not use any frequencies other than those that match the specifications shown. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock.

  • Do not use multi-socket adaptors. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock.

  • Do not use extension cords. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock.

  • Do not use power cords that are damaged, broken, or modified. Also, do not use power cords that have been trapped under heavy objects, pulled hard, or bent severely. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock.

  • Touching the prongs of the power cable's plug with anything metallic constitutes a fire and electric shock hazard.

  • It is dangerous to handle the power cord plug with wet hands. Doing so could result in electric shock.

  • The supplied power cord is for use with this machine only. Do not use it with other appliances. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock.

  • If the power cord is damaged and its inner wires are exposed or broken, contact your sales or service representative for a replacement. Use of damaged power cords could result in fire or electric shock.

  • Be sure to locate the machine as close as possible to a wall outlet. This will allow easy disconnection of the power cord in the event of an emergency.

CAUTION

  • Be sure to push the plug of the power cord fully into the wall outlet. Partially inserted plugs create an unstable connection that can result in unsafe buildup of heat.

  • When disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the cord. Pulling the cord can damage the power cord. Use of damaged power cords could result in fire or electric shock.

Important

  • Do not handle the machine while the cartridge is being filled.

1Plug the power cord fully into the machine.

The machine starts feeding ink into its print heads.

Leave the machine idle for about six minutes until the message “Ready” appears.

Do not remove the plug from the wall outlet while the ink is being fed.

You might hear a clicking sound while the print heads are being filled. This is not a malfunction and it will stop after a while.

When ink is completely fed, the [Power] key stops flashing and remains lit.
