and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause

harmful interference to radio or television reception. However, there is no

guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this

determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to

correct the interference by one or more of the following measures.

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

.Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

.Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which

the receiver is connected.

The connection of a non-shielded equipment interface cable to this equipment will

invalidate the FCC Certification of this device and may cause interference levels

which exceed the limits established by the FCC for this equipment. It is the

responsibility of the user to obtain and use a shielded equipment interface cable

with this device. If this equipment has more than one interface connector, do

not leave cables connected to unused interfaces.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void

Important Safety Instructions

Read all of these instructions before you set up your printer.

Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the printer.

Unplug the printer from the wall outlet before you clean it, and use a damp

cloth for cleaning, not liquid or aerosol cleaners.

Do not use your printer near water or spill any liquid on it.

Do not place the printer on an unstable cart, stand, table or other surface that

may allow the printer to fall.

Do not block any slots or openings in the cabinet. These are provided for the

ventilation necessary to ensure reliable operation and protection from

overheating. Placing the printer on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface

may block the openings. Also, do not place the printer in a built-in installation

unless proper ventilation is provided.

Never place the printer near or over a radiator or heat register.

Use the type of power source indicated on the label. If you are not sure of the

type of power available, consult your dealer or local power company.

This printer may be equipped with a plug having a third (grounding) pin,

which fits only into a grounding-type outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are

unable to insert the plug into the outlet, have an electrician replace your

obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding-type plug.

Do not put your printer where the cord will be walked on.

If you use an extension cord, make sure that the total of the ampere ratings on

the products plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the extension

cord’s ampere rating. Also, make sure that the total of all products plugged

into the wall outlet does not exceed 15 amperes.

Never push objects of any kind into your printer because they may touch

dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a risk of fire or

electric shock.

Except as specifically explained in the user’s manual, do not attempt to repair

the printer yourself. This could expose you to dangerous voltage points or

other risks. Refer all servicing in those compartments to service personnel.

iii

.Unplug the printer from the wall outlet and have it repaired by a qualified

service person under the following conditions:

When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed

If liquid has been spilled into it

If it has been exposed to ram or water

If it does not operate normally when the operating instructions are

followed. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating

instructions since improper adjustment of other controls may result in

damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to

restore the printer to normal operation.

If it has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged

If it exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service
