LOCATING THE PRINTER
Give some thought to the best place to put the printer. Both
the printer and computer should be used in normal office
surroundings. For best performance, we recommend:
l Use the printer on a flat surface.
l Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from
heat-producing appliances.
l Use it only in temperatures where you are comfortable.
l Avoid locations with dust, grease, or high humidity.
l Supply it “clean” electricity. Don’t connect it to the
same circuit used by large, noise-producing appliances
(such as refrigerators).
l Make sure the line voltage is within 10% of the voltage
specified on the identification plate.
CHECK THE CARTON CONTENTS
Open the carton and check each item in the box against
Figure l- 1 to make sure that you have everything (there should
be five items).
