However, if the machine is unplugged during printing, the print head is not protected with the cap
that prevents the ink from drying. This may affect the print quality of the machine when printing
later.
During electrical storms, turn OFF the power and disconnect the power cord from the power
outlet.
Do not use an extension cord as this may result in fire or electrical shock.
Ensure that the area around the power outlet is kept clear at all times so you can easily unplug the
power cord if necessary. Otherwise you will be unable to disconnect the power plug in case of an
emergency, and it may result in fire or electrical shock.
Never use a power supply source other than the one rated for the machine in the country where
you purchased the machine as it may result in fire or electrical shock.
The operating requirement of this machine is as follows:
120V AC, 60 Hz

or copier. These devices generate electrical noise which may interfere with your machine’s
operation.
Whenever you turn OFF the power and unplug the machine, wait at least five seconds before you
plug it in again.
Use only the power cord that came with the machine. Using a different power cord may cause
electric leakage or damage to the machine.
Turn OFF the power and unplug the machine in the following conditions:
• When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
• If liquid has spilled into the machine.
• If the machine has been exposed to rain or water.
• If the machine does not operate normally when you have followed the instructions in the guides
included with your machine.
• If the machine does not operate normally when you have followed the instructions provided in
Chapter 11, “Troubleshooting.”
• If the machine has been dropped or damaged.
• If the machine exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for servicing.
