CHAPTER 1

SETTING UP SC-lo/l5
In this chapter, we’ll show you how to unpack your new
SG-lo/15 printer, set it up in the right location, and get it ready
for you to load it with paper and start printing. But first . . .
WHERE SHALL WE PUT IT?
Before you do anything else, give some thought to where you’ll
be using your printer. Obviously, it will be somewhere near your
computer. And both printer and computer will lead longer,
healthier lives if they like their environment. For instance, we
recommend . . .
l Placing the printer on a flat surface
l Keeping it out of direct sunlight and away from
heat-producing appliances
l Using it only in temperatures where you are comfortable
l Avoiding areas with a lot of dust, grease, or humidity
l Giving it “clean” electricity. Don’t connect it to the same
circuit as large, noise-producing motors
l Power supply voltage should be the same voltage that’s
specified on the identification plate - not over 10% more
or less than the recommended AC voltage.
Warning: Extremely high or low voltage can damage your
printer.
WHAT HAVE WE HERE?
Now let’s take a look at what’s in the carton. Take it slow and
easy, and check each item in the box against Figure l-l. There
should be exactly 7 items.
