Safety Notes
• To protect against electric shock, plug the machine
into a properly grounded wall outlet. DO NOT use an
adapter plug. Use of an adapter could compromise
the ground and cause a possible shock hazard or
damage to the equipment in the event of a short
circuit.
• DO NOT remove the ground pin from the line cord.
• Avoid using outlets controlled by wall switches.
Someone could accidently shut your printer off.
• The power cord wall plug is the primary means of
disconnecting the machine from the AC power. The
wall outlet should be near the machine and easily
accessible.
• DO NOT route the power cord over sharp edges or
trap it between pieces of furniture.
• Insure that there is no strain on the power cord
where it passes between the equipment, walls or
furniture.
• Be certain the area in front of the wall receptacle into
which the machine is plugged is free from obstruc-
tion
