Allow 6“ (15cm) of free space either side of the printer and adequate space for paper behind the printer, if you want to use fanfold (computer) paper.
If you want to use the bottom feed for fanfold (com- puter) paper, you should locate the pile of paper at least one page length (about 12” (30cm)) below the printer.
Make sure the printer is connected to a steady power supply. It should not be on the same electric circuit as appliances like copiers or refrigerators that cause power spikes and surges.
●Use a power supply of the correct voltage as speci- fied on the printer’s identification plate.
