Now that you've installed the paper feed knob, use it to remove the sheet of paper wrapped around the printer's platen (the black roller). 2 Selecting the Right Location The most important consideration in choosing a location for your printer is that it be close enough to connect a cable to your computer. But also keep the following tips in mind: l Place the printer or printer stand on a solid and level foundation. Avoid setting it on carpet, chairs, or unstable surfaces. l Use a grounded outlet-one that has three holes to match the power plug on the printer. Don't use an adapter plug. l Avoid using electrical outlets that are controlled by wall switches- if you accidentally turn off a switch, you could wipe out valuable information and stop your printing. l Keep your printer and computer away from base units for cordless telephones. l Avoid using an outlet on the same circuit breaker with large electrical machines or appliances that might disrupt the flow of power to your printer. l Protect your printer from direct sunlight, and keep it away from excessive heat, moisture, and dust. Make sure it's not too close to a heater or any other heat source. 1-4

Selecting the Right Location
The most important consideration in choosing a location for
your printer is that it be close enough to connect a cable to your com-
puter. But also keep the following tips in mind:
l
Place the printer or printer stand on a solid and level foundation.
Avoid setting it on carpet, chairs, or unstable surfaces.
l
Use a grounded outlet-one that has three holes to match the power
plug on the printer. Don’t use an adapter plug.
l
Avoid using electrical outlets that are controlled by wall switches-
if you accidentally turn off a switch, you could wipe out valuable
information and stop your printing.
l
Keep your printer and computer away from base units for cordless
telephones.
l
Avoid using an outlet on the same circuit breaker with large electri-
cal machines or appliances that might disrupt the flow of power to
your printer.
l
Protect your printer from direct sunlight, and keep it away from
excessive heat, moisture, and dust. Make sure it’s not too close to a
heater or any other heat source.
