This switches the power on and off. The POWER LED indicates whether the power is on or
off.
POWER LED: Indicates whether the power is on or off.
CAUTION:
When turning the printer off, always use the POWER switch. If the power is turned off
by unplugging the power cable instead of using the POWER switch and the printer
is left for 2 weeks or more, the ink head nozzles become blocked and no longer
work because the printer was unable to perform the power-off process.
Note:
When the POWER LED is flashing, do not open the printer cover or turn off the printer.
If the POWER LED and another LED are flashing at the same time, it indicates that an error has
occurred. For details, see "Troubleshooting" on page 3-8.
