To prevent fire or electric shock, follow the instructions below based on your printer
configuration.
If in doubt, contact our Customer Support Center.
- If your printer is a 220-240 V model, there is no need to attach a separate earth
line since the earth connection is incorporated in the power line. Plug it into a
properly rated outlet.
- If your printer is a 100 or 110 V model, use the green earth bundled with the
power cord, located at the rear of the printer.
The earth wire must be connected to one of the following conductors:
- Earth terminal of the specified power outlet
- A piece of copper buried in the earth 650 mm or deeper
- Earth terminal with Class D* earthing
*Class D is the regulation for Japan only.
Never connect the earth wire to any of the following:
Gas pipe, which can be ignited and explode
●
Telephone line earth wire or lightning rod, which can draw an excessive electric
●
current if hit by lightning
Water faucet or pipe whose electrical conductivity is broken by a non-metal part
●
If the power cord is broken or insulated wires are exposed, ask our Customer Sup-
port Center for a replacement. Using a damaged cord can cause fire or electric
shock.
Do not unplug or replug the machine while it is on. Unplugging a live connector can
deform the plug and cause fire.
When unplugging the machine, grasp the plug instead of the cord. Forcibly pulling
on a cord can damage it and cause fire or electric shock.
Once a month, unplug the machine and check the power cord for the following:
The power cord is plugged firmly into a receptacle.
●
The plug is not excessively heated, rusted, or bent.
●
The plug and receptacle are free of dust.
●
The cord is not cracked or frayed.
●
If you notice any unusual conditions, contact our Customer Support Center.
When the machine is not used over an extended period of time, switch it off and
unplug it. If an unused machine is left connected to a power source for a long
period, degraded insulation can cause electric shock, current leakages, or fire.
