Caution:
❏ Be careful not to trap your hands or fingers when opening or closing the front cover.
Failure to observe this precaution could result in injury.
❏ Secure the media in place by the following procedure. Injury may occur if the media
falls.
❏ Do not rub your hands along the edges of the media. The edges are sharp and can
cause injury.
Important:
Load media immediately before printing. The pressure rollers may crease media left in the
printer. The media may also become wavy or curled, causing jams or resulting in the media
coming into contact with the print head.
Note:
For information on the media that can be used in the printer, see “Supported Media” on page
