To ensure the optimum performance of the printer, follow the precautions listed below.

-NEVER open any door, or turn OFF the printer during operation.

-NEVER bring any magnetized object or flammable gas or liquid near the printer.

-NEVER pull on the cord and ALWAYS hold the plug when unplugging the power cord. A damaged cord could result in a fire or cause an electrical shock.

-NEVER attempt to unplug the power cord with a wet hand, as it could cause an electrical shock.

-ALWAYS unplug the power cord whenever attempting to move the printer. Moving the printer with the power cord plugged in can damage the cord, resulting in a fire or causing an electrical shock.

-ALWAYS unplug the power cord when the printer is not to be used for a long time.

-NEVER remove any panel or cover which is secured. The printer contains a high-voltage component inside which can cause an electrical shock.

-NEVER remodel the printer, as a fire or electrical shock could result.

-NEVER place a heavy object on the power cord, or pull or bend it, as a fire or electrical shock could result.

-ALWAYS ensure that the printer does not ride on the power cord or communications cable of other electrical equipment, and it does not get such a cord or cable wedged into its own mechanism, as malfunctioning equipment or fire could result.

-NEVER drop paper clips, staples, or other small pieces of metal through the vents or other openings in the printer, as a fire or electrical shock could result.

-NEVER place a vase or vessel containing water on the printer. If fluid gets inside, it can cause a fire or electrical shock. In case a piece of metal or fluid gets inside the printer, immediately turn it OFF, unplug the power cord, and call your technical representative. A fire or electrical shock could result if the printer is run without taking necessary action.

-NEVER leave the printer running when it becomes inordinately hot, or emits smoke, unusual smell, or noise. If that happens, immediately turn OFF the printer, unplug it, and call your technical representative. A fire or electrical shock could result if the printer is run without taking necessary action.
