Installation Precautions

Q

Environment

CAUTION

• Avoid placing the printer on or in locations which are

unstable or not level. Such locations may cause the

printer to fall down or fall over. This type of situation

presents a danger of personal injury or damage to the

printer.

.........................................................................

• Avoid locations with humidity or dust and dirt. If dust or

dirt becomes attached to the power plug, clean the

plug to avoid the danger of fire or electrical shock.

.....

• Avoid locations near radiators, heaters, or other heat

sources, or locations near flammable items, to avoid

the danger of fire.

........................................................

• To keep the printer cool and facilitate changing of

parts and maintenance, allow access space as shown

below. Leave adequate space, especially around the

left cover, to allow air to be properly ventilated out of

the printer.

...................................................................

• Always use the caster stoppers to stabilize the printer

once it is in place to keep it from moving and/or falling

over and causing injury.

..............................................

Other Precautions

• Adverse environmental conditions may affect the safe

operation and performance of the printer. Install in an

air-conditioned room (recommended room tempera-

ture: around 20 °C, humidity: around 65 % RH) and

avoid the following locations when selecting a site for

the printer.

• Avoid locations near a window or with exposure to di-

rect sunlight.

• Avoid locations with vibrations.

• Avoid locations with drastic temperature fluctuations.

• Avoid locations with direct exposure to hot or cold air.

• Avoid poorly ventilated locations.

• If the floor is delicate against casters, when this prod-

uct is moved after installation, the floor material may

be damaged.

Q

Power Supply/Grounding the Printer

WARNING

• DO NOT use a power supply with a voltage other than

that specified. Avoid multiple connections in the same

outlet. These types of situations present a danger of

fire or electrical shock.

................................................

• Plug the power cord securely into the outlet. If metallic

objects come in contact with the prongs on the plug, it

may cause a fire or electric shock.

.............................

• Always connect the printer to an outlet with a ground

connection to avoid the danger of fire or electrical

shock in case of an electric short. If an earth connec-

tion is not possible, contact your service representa-

tive.

.............................................................................

Other Precautions

• Connect the power plug to the closest outlet possible

to the printer.

Q

Handling of Plastic Bags

WARNING

• Keep the plastic bags that are used with the printer

away from children. The plastic may cling to their nose

and mouth causing suffocation.
