Connecting to a power outlet and turning power on and off

Plug the power cord of the printer into a standard power outlet whose voltage matches the power rating noted on the label affixed to the bottom of your printer.

Caution!

If the voltage marked on the bottom of your printer does not match the voltage from the outlet you are using, do not plug in the power cord. Contact your dealer for assistance.

Set the switch on the left of the printer to 1 (ON) to turn power on, and to 0 (OFF) to turn power off.

Caution!

Whenever you turn off the power, wait for at least five seconds before turning it back on. Otherwise you may damage the printer. We also recommend that you unplug the printer from the power outlet whenever you do not plan to use it for long periods. Because of this, you should locate the printer so that the power outlet it is plugged into is nearby and easy to access.

At this point you may want to perform a test of the printer to make sure it is working properly. See “Testing the printer” on page 70 for details on how to perform tests.
