SETTING UP THE HARDWARE

This section shows the steps to set up the hardware which is explained in the Quick Install Guide. Make sure you read Quick Install Guide and complete following steps.

1.Select a stable location.

Select a level, stable place with adequate space for air circulation. Allow extra space to open covers and trays.

The area should be well-ventilated and away from direct sunlight or sources of heat, cold, and humidity. Do not set the machine close to the edge of your desk or table.

Printing is suitable for altitudes under 1,000 m (3,281 ft). Refer to the altitude setting to optimize your printing. See page 29 for more information.

Place the machine on a flat, stable surface so that there is no incline greater than 5 mm (0.02 inch). Otherwise, printing quality may be affected.

•Installing the software

•Machine's basic settings

•Understanding the keyboard

3.Remove the tape holding the machine tightly.

4.Install both the print cartridge and imaging unit.

5.Load paper. (See "Loading paper" on page 38.)
