Turning on the printer

After you have connected the interface cables, you are ready to connect the power cord and turn on the printer. If you need to turn the printer off, wait until the display shows Ready or the printerÕs name before powering it down.

Caution To avoid damaging the printer, make sure that the power switch is in the off position before connecting the power cord.

If you move the printer to a location that requires a different type of power cord, refer to ÒChanging line voltageÓ on page 5-56 for more information.

1.Plug the power cord into the printer and into a grounded outlet capable of supplying a minimum of 15 Amps at 115 VAC.

2.Turn on the printer.

Note To ensure optimum printing performance and best ink economy, leave the printer turned on overnight and during weekends. The printer automatically switches into a standby mode to reduce power consumption during periods of infrequent use.
