Turning the printer on and off

You press the power button to turn the printer on and off.

When you plug in the printer, you’ll hear the printer preparing itself. Before
you press the power button to turn the printer on, wait a few moments for the
preparation sounds to subside.

After you press the power button, you’ll hear the printer preparing itself again
for several seconds.

Saving energy

When you save energy, you save natural resources and reduce

pollution. Your Color StyleWriter 2200 saves energy by automatically turning
itself off after sitting unused for about 5 minutes. You can also save energy by
using the page preview function available in many programs to check page
layout rather than printing a draft.

Be sure to turn the printer back on when you want to print.

IMPORTANT

Except in an emergency, never turn the printer off by unplugging

the printer unless the power light indicates that the power is off. If the printer
is plugged into a power strip, never turn off the power strip unless you’ve
already turned the printer off. Each time you press the power button to turn
off the printer, or the printer turns itself off, it automatically moves the ink
cartridge to the right, where it caps the nozzles to keep the ink cartridge from
drying out. If you unplug the printer or discontinue power before turning it
off, the printer can’t position the cartridge in the capped position, the print
head may dry out (which can cause gaps in your printing), and you may have
to replace the cartridge.

This light glows
while the printer is on.

To turn the printer on
(and off), press this button.

This light blinks.
