2.2. Operating Procedures

This section explains basic operations of the printer and procedures leading up to and including printing.

Operating Precautions

●Do not turn off power during printing. This may result in a paper jam or damage to the printer.

●Do not open covers on the printer or covers of optional equipment or move the printer during printing.

●Do not open the paper feed cassette or the paper feed unit during printing.

●Refrain from frequently plugging and unplugging the power plug from the power outlet even when power is turned off.

●Do not plug or unplug the power cord or printer cables while the printer’s power is turned on.

●Be sure that the printer’s power is off when inserting or removing memory cards. Inserting or removing a memory card while the printer’s power is on may result in damage to the memory card and/or the printer.

●Be sure to carefully attach and detach paper feed cassettes and carefully open and close the top cover.

●Be sure to unplug the power cord from the power outlet and take precautions against dust gathering on the printer by draping a cover over it when it is not in use.
