Unpacking
This section describes how to select a good place for the printer and
unpack it. If the printer is already set up, you can skip ahead to the
next section.

Selecting a Good Place for the Printer

When selecting a place for your printer, observe the following guidelines:
99
99
9The site must be large enough to accommodate the printer. For
narrow-carriage models, the site must be at least 21 inches (54 cm)
wide by 19 inches (49 cm) deep. For wide-carriage models, the site
must be at least 26 inches (66 cm) wide by 19 inches (49 cm) deep.
99
99
9The printer must be close enough to the computer for your cable to
reach: 10 feet (3 meters) for parallel or 50 feet (15 meters) for
serial.
99
99
9The printer must be on a flat, solid surface—never on a chair or any
other unstable support.
99
99
9Choose a place that is clean and free from excessive heat (including
direct sunlight), moisture, and dust.

9Use a grounded outlet—one that has three holes to match the power
plug on the printer. Don't use an adapter plug or an extension cord.
