Choosing a place for the printer
Before actually unpacking the printer, you should take a few minutes to think about where you plan to use it. Remember the following points when doing this.
✓Choose a firm, level surface where the printer will not be exposed to vibration.
✓The power outlet you plan to connect to for power should be nearby and unobstructed.
✓Make sure that the printer is close enough to your host computer for you to connect the two.
✓Make sure that the printer is not exposed to direct sunlight.
✓Make sure that the printer is well away from heaters and other sources of extreme heat.
✓Make sure that the surrounding area is clean, dry, and free of dust.
✓Make sure that the printer is connected to a reliable power outlet. It should not be on the same electric circuit as copiers, refrigerators, or other appliances that cause power spikes.
✓Make sure that the room where you are using the printer is not too humid.
