CAUTION:
❏
When connecting external devices to the USB (including Micro-USB) ports, follow the precau tions
below.
• Confirm the rated current of the external devices by checking the descriptions on the devices or manuals.
Connect the external devices only when those total rated current is less than 2.0 A. Do not use a device
whose rated current is unclear.
• Use UL-approved external devices (only for North American users).
❏
When using the printer, make sure the protective cover fits firm ly into place.
❏
When Ethernet cables are installed outdoors, make sure devices without pr oper surge protection
are cushioned by being connected through devices that do have surge protection. Otherwise, the
devices can be damaged by lightning.
QNote:
Connecting the optional Wireless LAN Cable Set (OT-WL01) to the USB connector enables the
wireless LAN connection. While connecting via wireless LAN, keep the Ethernet cable unconnected to
the printer.
Arranging the Cables
When connecting the cables whose connectors do not lock th emselves (USB cable and DC 5 V
cable), pass the cables through the cable band to prevent them from coming off.
QNote:
When attaching the optional connector cover (OT-CC70), use multiple cable exits depending on the
number of cables. After installing, make sure the cables are not pinched by the connector cover.
