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:
• Carefully read all setup and operating instructions. Be sure
to save all documents for future reference.
• Read and follow all warning and instruction labels on the
printer itself.
• Place your printer on a firm, solid surface. If you put in on
something unsteady, it might fall and be damaged.
• Avoid overheating the printer. Do not place it on a soft
surface, such as a rug, sofa, or bed. The vents may be
blocked, causing the printer to overheat.
• The printer must be installed near a power outlet which will
remain easily accessible.
• Be certain that your power source matches the rating listed
on the back of the printer. If you aren’t sure, check with your
dealer or with your local power company.
• Your printer has a grounded, 3-prong plug as a safety feature.
It will only fit into a grounded outlet. If you can not plug it
in, chances are that you have an older, non-grounded outlet.
Contact an electrician to have it replaced with a grounded
outlet. Do not use an adapter to defeat the grounding.
• To avoid damaging the power cord, do not put anything on it
or place it where it will be walked on. If the cord becomes
damaged or frayed, replace it immediately.
• If you’re using an extension cord 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.
