Where to Place Your Printer

Now that your printer is unpacked, you need to find the best place to put it. Keep the following tips in mind:

•Place the printer close enough to the computer for the PIC cable to reach between them.

•Place the printer on a stable surface. Avoid setting the LX-90on carpeting or chairs.

•Use a grounded outlet, and do not use an adapter plug.

•Avoid using outlets that are controlled by wall switches-if you accidentally turn off a switch, you could wipe out valuable infor- mation in your computer’s memory and stop your printing.

•Try not to use an outlet on the same circuit breaker with large elec- trical machines or appliances-they can disrupt the flow of power to your printer.

•Protect your printer from direct sunlight, and keep it away from excessive heat, moisture, and dust.

•In order to use the tractor and continuous paper, put your LX-90where the paper can flow freely in and out of the printer. See the illustrations for suggestions.
