Mounting the 55-watt power supply on a vertical surface (using optional kit A798-K309)
1 Select a location that allows adequate support for
the power supply and reaches an electrical outlet and
the printer. Mount the bracket using the instructions
provided with the A798 power supply wall-mount kit.
2 Set the power supply (K301, available separately) onto
the bracket and secure with the provided tie wrap.
Caution: Do not plug in the power supply until all the
cables are connected, as this may damage the
printer. (See next section page 15.)
