LOCATING THE PRINTER
Give some thought to the best place to put the printer. Both the printer
and computer should be used in a normal indoor environment. For best
performance, we recommend:
l
Place the printer on a flat surface.
a Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from heat-producing appliances.
l
Use it only in temperatures where you are comfortable.
l
Avoid locations with dust, grease, or high humidity.
l
Supply it "clean" electricity. Don't connect it to the same circuit as a large,
noise-producing appliance such as a refrigerator.
l
Make sure the line voltage is within 10% of the voltage specified on the
identitication plate.
l
If you will be using fanfold forms, place the printer where the forms can
feed up to it from below, with at least a full page hanging free.
UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
Check the carton contents
Open the carton and check each item in the box against Figure l-l to
make sure that you have everything (there should be five items).
