Choosing a Place for the Printer
When selecting a place to set up your printer, be sure to follow
the guidelines below.
Place the printer on a flat, stable surface.
Place the printer close enough to the computer for the
printer's interface cable to reach it.
Leave adequate room around the printer to allow for easy
operation and maintenance.
Caution:
Avoid locations that are subject to direct sunlight, excessive
heat, moisture, or dust.
Use a grounded outlet; do not use an adapter plug.
Place the printer where you can easily unplug the power
cord.
Avoid electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or
automatic timers. Accidental disruption of power can wipe
out information in the memory of your printer or computer.
Avoid outlets on the same circuit as large motors or other
appliances that can cause fluctuations in line voltage.
Keep the entire computer system away from potential
sources of electromagnetic interference, such as
loudspeakers or the base units of cordless telephones.
