Caution
• Prior to operation, read the safety instructions carefully and observe them.
• Do not use or store the printer near fire, excessive moisture, in direct sunlight,
near an air conditioner or heater or other source of unusually humidity or
excessive dust.
• Do not place the printer where chemical reactions occur, such as in a
laboratory.
• Do not place the printer where air is mixed with salt or gas.
• The printer must sit on a firm, level surface where there is ample ventilation.
Never allow the printer's air vent to be blocked by an object.
• Do not put anything on the top of printer.
• Do not place the printer near a radio or television, and do not use the same
wall outlet for the printer and radio or television. Radio or television reception
could be adversely affected.
• Do not put anything on the power cord or step on it.
• Do not drag or carry the printer with the power cord or interface cable.
• Avoid plugging the power cord into an outlet with many loads.
• Do not bundle the power cord when inserting the plug.
• Always grip the plug housing, not the cord, to plug/unplug the power cord.
• Make certain the power is turned off before connecting/disconnecting the
interface cable.
• Avoid lengthening the signal cable or connecting it to any noise-producing
device. If it is unavoidable, use the shielded cable or twisted pair for each
signal.
• Place the printer near the outlet where the power cord can be unplugged
easily to shut off power.
• Use the AC outlet that accepts a three-pronged plug. Otherwise, static
electricity may be generated and there will be danger of electric shock.
• Do not carry it holding the cover.
Doing this might break its mechanisms or cause it to malfunction.
