3Insert the power cable plug firmly in the socket.
Do not take out or insert the power plug with a wet hand. This could lead to an electric shock.
Make sure to use only the specified power supply (AC 100 V - 120 V or AC 220 V - 240 V). If a power supply other than the specified voltage is used, it could cause an electric shock and fire.
Take power for the printer directly from the power socket (AC 100 V - 120 V or AC 220 V - 240 V). Do not use multiple plugs on the same socket. This could generate heat and might cause fire.
Make sure to use a dedicated power socket with an earth terminal for the power supply, and connect it to an earth terminal. If the earth wire is not connected, an electric shock or fire may occur.
Do not connect an earth wire to the following places.
Gas pipe
There is a possibility of ignition and explosion.
Earth wire of telephone cables and lightning rods
Heavy current might flow whenever lightning strikes.
Water pipe and faucet
The earth might not work if a plastic pipe is connected in the middle of the metal pipe.
Pay attention to the following points when handling the power supply plug. Any mishandling of the power cable could cause a fire.
Make sure that no foreign substances such as dust etc. are stuck to the power plug.
Make sure that the power plug is firmly inserted to the edge of the power socket.
When you do not use the printer for a long period, make sure to pull out the power plug from the power socket for safety.
Make sure to connect an earth wire to the earth connection that meets the following standards.
Earth terminal of power socket
Earth wire with copper plate which is buried at 650 mm or more, deep in the ground.
Contact the retail outlet of purchase if the earth connection cannot be established, or if the earth connection is not given.
When the power supply of the printer is ON, do not pull out the power cable from the power socket.
Whenever the plug is pulled out from the power socket, allow one minute or more before inserting the plug in the power socket again.
To use the two power cables plugged in the inlets, a total capacity of 17 A or over is required. If the power source cannot supply the required capacity, plug the two power cables in the different power sources respectively.
