Note the following important precautions when selecting a location for the printer and when connecting it to a power source.

Selecting a Location for the Printer

A proper location helps to ensure that your printer provides you with the long service life for which it is designed. Double-check to make sure that the location you select has the following characteristics.

Choose a location that is well-ventilated.

Make sure there is no chance of ammonia or other organic gases being generated in the area.

The power outlet you plan to connect to should be nearby and unobstructed.

Make sure that the printer is not exposed to direct sunlight.

Avoid areas in the direct airflow of air conditioners, heaters, or ventilators, and areas subjected to temperature and humidity extremes.

Choose a sturdy, level surface where the printer will not be exposed to strong vibration.

Keep the printer away from any objects that might block its heat vents.

Do not locate the printer near curtains or other combustible objects.

Choose an area where there is no possibility of the printer being splashed with water or other liquids.

Make sure that the surrounding area is clean, dry, and free of dust.
