CAUTION
• Avoid placing the printer on or in locations which are unstable or not level. Such locations may
cause the printer to fall down or fall over. This type of situation presents a danger of personal
injury or damage to the printer. .......................................................................................
• Avoid locations with humidity or dust and dirt. If dust or dirt becomes attached to the power
plug, clean the plug to avoid the danger of fire or electrical shock. ......................................
• Avoid locations near radiators, heaters, or other heat sources, or locations near flammable
items, to avoid the danger of fire. ....................................................................................
• To keep the printer cool, be sure to allow sufficient space around it as shown below. In partic-
ular, be sure to allow sufficient space between the vents on the sides of the printer and walls,
etc. Not allowing enough space can impede cooling, which leads to overheating and poor
printer performance.......................................................................................................
• Always use the caster stoppers to stabilize the printer once it is in place to keep it from moving
and/or falling over and causing injury. .............................................................................
Other Precautions

printer. Install in an air-conditioned room (recommended room temperature: around 20 °C,
humidity: around 65 % RH) and avoid the following locations when selecting a site for the
printer.
– Avoid locations near a window or with exposure to direct sunlight.
– Avoid locations with vibrations.
– Avoid locations with drastic temperature fluctuations.
– Avoid locations with direct exposure to hot or cold air.
– Avoid poorly ventilated locations.
• When casters are installed on the printer, moving the printer can cause damage to certain floor
surfaces.
