Finding a Location for the Printer Dock
mAllow 5 inches (12.7 cm) clearance on all
sides of the printer dock.
mPlace the printer dock on a flat, clean, dust-
free surface, out of direct sunlight.
mMake sure airflow around the top and back
is not blocked.
mDo not place the printer dock on cloth or
carpeted surfaces.
mAvoid areas where ventilation ducts, open
doors, or frequent passersby might expose
the printer dock and paper to high levels of
dust and debris. Airborne dirt particles can
cause image-quality problems.

printer and lift up the back edge.

printer and lift out the front edge.
