Choosing a location
Put your machine on a flat, stable surface that is free of vibration and shocks, such as a desk. Put the machine
near a telephone socket and a standard, grounded electrical socket. Choose a location where the temperature
remains between 10°C and 35°C.
WARNING
• DO NOT put the machine near heaters, air conditioners, refrigerators, medical equipment, chemicals
or water.
• DO NOT connect your machine to electrical sockets on the same circuit as large appliances or other
equipment that might disrupt the power supply.
CAUTION
• Avoid placing your machine in a high-traffic area.
• Avoid placing your machine on a carpet.
• DO NOT expose the machine to direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture, or dust.
• DO NOT connect your machine to electrical sockets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers.
• Disruption of power can wipe out information in the machine's memory.
• Avoid interference sources, such as other cordless telephone systems or speakers.
• DO NOT tip the machine, or place it on any tilted surface. Doing this may cause ink spillage and internal
damage to your machine.
