• Do not use your printer near water, or spill liquid of any kind
into it.
• Be certain that your power source matches the rating listed
on the back of the printer. If you are not sure, check with your
dealer or with your local power company.
• Your printer has an earthed, 3-pin plug as a safety feature,
and it will only fit into an earthed outlet. If you can not plug
it in, chances are that you have an older, non-earthed outlet;
contact an electrician to have it replaced with an earthed outlet.
Do not use an adapter to defeat the earthing.
• The outlet into which you plug your printer must remain easily
accessible at all times.
• To avoid damaging the power cable, do not put anything on it
or place it where it will be walked on. If the cable becomes
damaged or frayed, replace it immediately.
• If you are using an extension cable or power strip with the
printer, make sure that the total of the amperes required by all
the equipment on the extension is less than the extension’s
rating. Generally, the total ratings of all equipment plugged
into any one power line should not exceed 15 amperes. Don’t
exceed this unless you know that the power line your
equipment is plugged into has a rating above 15 amperes.
Safety
Your Oki printer has been carefully designed to give you years of
safe, reliable performance. As with all electrical equipment, there
are a few basic precautions you should take to avoid hurting
yourself or damaging the printer:
• Read the setup and operating instructions in this manual
carefully. Be sure to save it for future reference.
• Read and follow all warning and instruction labels on the
printer itself.
• Unplug the printer before you clean it. Use only a damp cloth;
do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
• Place your printer on a firm, solid surface. If you put in on
something unsteady, it might fall and be damaged; if you place
it on a soft surface, such as a rug, sofa, or bed, the vents may
be blocked, causing it to overheat.
• To protect your printer from overheating, make sure no
openings on the printer are blocked. Do not put the printer on
or near a heat source, such as a radiator or heat register. If you
put the printer in any kind of enclosure, make sure it is well
ventilated.
• The printhead can get quite hot when it has been printing for
a length of time. Do not touch the printhead until it has had a
chance to cool off.
