Part 15 of the FCC Rules. ese limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
FCC WARNING
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
For compliance with the Federal Noise Interference Standard, this equipment requires a shielded cable.
For RF interference suppression, if a ferrite core is provided with this device, ax it to the interface cable.
is statement will be applied only for the printers marketed in U.S.A.
Statement of
e Canadian Department of Communications
Radio Interference Regulationst

4. Make sure that the printer is not exposed to direct sunlight.
5. Make sure that the printer is well away from heaters and other sources of extreme heat.
6. Make sure that the printer is connected to a reliable power outlet. It should not be on the same electric circuit as copi-
ers, refrigerators, or other appliances that cause power spikes.
7. Make sure that the room where you are using the printer is not too humid.
8. Use the printer within the boundaries indicated in the environmental requirements. Even when the ambient tem-
perature and humidity are within the specications, avoid radical changes in environmental conditions. e suitable
operating temperature range is as follows:
Operating temperature: 5°C to 45°C
