Preparation

2 Set the main power switch placed on the back of the printer to the OFF (a) side.

Note

Be sure not to set the main power switch to the OFF (a) side directly. Set the printer to standby mode once, and then set the main power switch to the OFF (a) side. The printer turns the power off after it performs maintenance so that it will start in good condition when the power is turned on next time.

Relationship Between the ON/ STANDBY Indicator and the READY indicator

You can confirm the status of the printer according to the lighting status of the ON/STANDBY and READY indicators placed on the front panel.
