3.1 Unpacking and Inspection
The printer has been packaged in protective foam to help reduce the damage during
shipment. Inspect the shipping container(s) for signs of damage. If damage is evident,
contact the shipping company immediately to file a damage claim.
After the printer is removed from the container(s), verify that all the items on the packing list
are present and in good condition. The picture below (See Figure 3-1) shows a printer,
operator's manual, and optional power cord. Your shipment may contain different items.
The foam and shipping container(s) should be kept and used if the printer needs to be
shipped later. Additional shipping materials may be ordered by contacting the Microcom
Corporation Service Department.
