Getting
Started
A. Choosing a
Good Location
Place the unit in a location with adequate air
circulation to prevent internal heat build up.
1. Use the dimensions specified in Section 12 as a
guideline for the minimum clearances to the unit.
2. Do not place the unit in a location where the
ventilation holes located on the rear of the unit
could become blocked.
3. Do not install unit near heat sources, such as
radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct
sun-light, excessive dust, mechanical vibration, or
shock.
B. About
Moisture
Condensation
If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm
location, or is placed in a very damp room,
moisture may condense inside the unit. Should this
occur, print quality may not be optimum. Leave the
unit turned off in a warm, dry room for several
hours before using. This will allow the moisture to
evaporate.
C. Unpacking
and Inspection
While unpacking your printer, inspect the carton to
ensure that no damage has occurred during
shipping. Make sure that all supplied accessories
