Setting up the hardware
This section shows the steps to set up the hardware, as is explained in the Quick Install Guide. Make sure you read the Quick Install Guide first and follow the steps below:
1.Select a stable location.
Select a level, stable place with adequate space for air circulation. Allow extra space to open covers and trays.
The area should be well ventilated and away from direct sunlight or sources of heat, cold, and humidity. Do not set the machine close to the edge of your desk or table.
Printing is suitable for altitudes under 1,000 m (3,281 ft). Refer to the altitude setting to optimize your printing. (See "Altitude adjustment" on page 40.)
Place the machine on a flat, stable surface so that there is no incline greater than 2 mm (0.08 inch). Otherwise, printing quality may be affected.
2.Unpack the machine and check all the enclosed items.
3.Remove tape holding the machine securely.
4.Install the toner cartridge.
5.Load paper. (See "Loading paper in the tray" on page 43.)
6.Make sure that all cables are connected to the machine.
7.Turn the machine on.
