Choosing the printer location
•
The printer should not be placed in a built-in installation unless proper
ventilation is provided.
•
Do not install the printer where it is exposed to smoke, steam, an open flame,
or direct sunlight.
If the printer will inevitably be exposed to direct sunlight, use a heavy curtain to
shade the printer.
•
Do not expose the printer to a chemical environment, such as an experimental
laboratory. The exterior of the printer is made of plastic, and the outside
covering may fade, become deformed, or melt.
•
Do not place the printer at any of these locations:
•
A location near magnets or equipment generating a magnetic field
•
A place with constant vibration
If exposed to vibration, the optical and electrophotographic systems of
the printer may not operate properly.
•
A dusty or wet area
Handling abrupt temperature changes
When the room is quickly heated or the printer is moved from a cool, dry place to
a warm, humid one, let the printer remain idle for more than one hour before
using it to allow it to adjust to the temperature to change. Otherwise,
condensation may form inside, causing paper delivery problems and/or
deterioration in print quality. In some cases this may be detected as an error.
Using a supersonic humidifier
If tap water or well water is used in a supersonic humidifier, the impurities in the
water will be released into the air and become attached to the inside of the printer,
causing the image quality to deteriorate. When using a supersonic humidifier, we
recommend using purified water.
Additional warnings
Never push objects of any kind into the printer through openings in the
enclosure, as the objects may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts.
This could result in a fire or electrical shock.
