Safety notes
3.Place your printer on a firm, solid surface. If you put it on an unsteady surface, it might fall and become damaged. If you place the printer on a soft surface, such as a rug, sofa, or bed, the vents may be blocked, causing it to overheat
10.You must only use the 3-conductor,18 AWG, SVT type, IEC320 style power cord provided with your printer e.g., a plug having a third grounding pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding-typepower outlet. This is a safety feature. To avoid the risk of electric shock, contact your electrician to replace the receptacle if you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet. Never use a ground adapter plug to connect the printer to a power source receptacle that lacks a ground connection terminal
∙The power cord or plug is frayed or damaged
