Your printer and the recommended supplies have been designed and tested to meet strict safety
requirements. Attention to the following information ensures the continued safe operation of
your printer.
Electrical Safety
■ Use the power cord supplied with your printer.
■ Plug the power cord directly into a properly grounded electrical outlet. Make sure each
end of the cord is securely connected. If you do not know if an outlet is grounded, ask an
electrician to check the outlet.
■ Do not use a ground adapter plug to connect the printer to an electrical outlet that does not
have a ground connection terminal.
■ Do not use an extension cord or power strip.
■ Verify that the printer is plugged into an outlet that is capable of providing the correct
voltage and power. Review the printer’s electrical specification with an electrician if
necessary.
Warning: Avoid the potential of electrical shock by ensuring that the printer is properly
grounded. Electrical products may be hazardous if misused.
■ Do not place the printer in an area where people might step on the power cord.
■ Do not place objects on the power cord.
■ Do not block the ventilation openings. These openings are provided to prevent overheating
of the printer.
■ Do not drop paper clips or staples into the printer.
Warning: Do not push objects into slots or openings on the printer. Making contact with a
voltage point or shorting out a part could result in fire or electrical shock.
If you notice unusual noises or odors:
1. Turn off the printer immediately.
2. Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.
3. Call an authorized service representative to correct the problem.
