Connecting the Power Cord
WARNING
• Do not damage or modify the power cord. Also, do not place heavy objects on
the power cord, or pull on or excessively bend it. This could cause a current to
leak and cause a fire or electrical shock.
• Keep the power cord away from a heat source. Failure to do so may cause the
cord coating to melt, causing a fire or electrical shock.
• Do not connect or disconnect the power cord with wet hands, as this may result
in electrical shock.
• Do not connect the power cord to a multiplug power strip, as this may cause a
fire or electrical shock.
• Do not bundle up or tie the power cord in a knot, as this may result in a fire or
electrical shock.
• Insert the power plug completely into the power outlet, as failure to do so may
result in a fire or electrical shock.
• Do not use power cords other than the power cord provided, as this may result
in a fire or electrical shock.
• As a general rule, do not use extension cords. Using an extension cord may
result in a fire or electrical shock.
CAUTION
• Do not use power supplies with voltages other than those specified herein, as
this may result a fire or electrical shock.
• Always grasp the plug when unplugging the power cord. Pulling on the power
cord may expose or snap the core wire, or otherwise damage the power cord. If
the power cord is damaged, this could cause a current to leak, resulting in a fire
or electrical shock.
• Leave sufficient space around the power plug so that it can be unplugged easily.
If objects are placed around the power plug, you will be unable to unplug it in an
emergency.
IMPORTANT
•
Do not connect the power cable to the auxiliary outlet on the computer.

One AC outlet should be used exclusively for the printer.
