Important Safety Instructions
CAUTION
• Do not install the printer in the following locations:
-A damp or dusty location
-A location exposed to oily smoke or steam; e.g., near a countertop or humidier.
-A location exposed to rain or snow.
-A location exposed to salty wind.
-A location subject to high temperatures
-A location near open ames
• Do not place the printer in an unstable location; e.g., on a wobbling or inclined table, or a location
subject to frequent vibrations. The printer could fall down or fall over, resulting in personal injury.
• Never place the printer where it will be exposed to rapid changes in temperature, such as in direct
sunlight, near an air conditioner, or in a car on a hot day. This could cause a re or damage to the printer.
IMPORTANT
• Use the printer in the following operating environment:
Operating environment: 15 degrees Celsius - 30 degrees Celsius, RH 10% - 80% (with no condensation)
• If the printer is carried into a warm room on a cold day, this could cause condensation inside the printer. If this
happens, allow the printer to sit for at least 1 hour at room temperature to adapt to the ambient temperature
and humidity.
• To ensure normal operation of the printer and avoid possible damage, do not install the printer near large oce
equipment or any other type of electrical device that emits a strong magnetic eld.
■Power Supply
WARNING
• Do not use any power cord and AC adapter other than those supplied with the printer. Do not use the
supplied AC adapter for any other product. This could cause a re or electric shock.
• Do not bring the power cord and AC adapter close to heating appliance. This could melt the cable
sheath and cause a re or electric shock.
• To avoid a re or electrical shock, do not use an extension cord.
• To avoid a re or serious electrical shock, connect the printer power cord to an independent power
outlet that is not shared by other equipment or appliances.

6
Important Safety Instructions
• To avoid causing a re or serious electrical shock, make sure that the power plug is securely and
completely inserted into the power outlet.
• Do not damage, break, or modify the power cord and AC adapter. Do not place a heavy object on, heat,
or pull the AC cord and the AC adapter. This could cause power leakage from the damaged portion,
resulting in a re or electric shock.
• Do not stress the base of power cord such as wrapping it around the AC adapter. This could cause power
leakage from the damaged portion, resulting in a re or electric shock.
• To avoid personal injury from an electrical shock, do not handle the power cord or plug when your hands
are wet.
• To avoid a re or serious electrical shock, do not knot the power cord or wrap it around itself.
• Disconnect the printer power cord during severe electrical storms. Lightning could cause a re or severe
electrical shock or damage to the printer.
CAUTION
• To avoid damaging the power plug, which could cause a short circuit and cause a re or electrical
shock, do not pull on the power cord to unplug the cord from the power supply. Always grip the plug to
remove it from the power supply.
• When disconnecting the AC adapter from the printer, be sure to remove the power plug from the power
outlet rst. If the connection terminal of the AC adapter is brought into contact with any metallic part
when the power plug is still connected to the power outlet, a re or electric shock could result.
• Always keep the area around the power plug free of obstacles so you can unplug it easily. This allows you
to unplug the power cord quickly in an emergency.
• Do not use any power outlet other than the one rated for the printer. This printer is designed to be used
in the region where you purchased. Also, make sure that the power outlet can supply sucient power for
the printer. This could cause a re or serious electrical shock, or damage the printer.
■Handling
WARNING

enters inside of the printer, turn the printer o immediately, disconnect the power plug from the power
outlet and contact the dealer.
• When abnormal sound, smoke, excessive heat, or strange odor is detected, turn the printer o
immediately, disconnect the power plug from the power outlet and contact the dealer. Using the printer
continuously could cause a re or electric shock. Do not attempt to repair the printer by yourself. This
could cause a re or serious electrical shock.
