GENERAL SAFETY TIPS
Note these general safety reminders before servicing
the printer. Additional cautions and warnings appear
in this document as they apply to specific procedures.
WARNING
NEVER perform maintenance on the printer with the
power cord connected. Doing so exposes points where
AC voltages are present. Reattach the power cord
only when test procedures indicate that power is
required.
CAUTION
Static electricity can damage printer parts. Use a
static ground wrist strap whenever possible. If a wrist
strap is not available, ground yourself by touching
some metal before touching the printer.
