Connect the power cord

and telephone line

WARNING

• The machine must be fitted with an earthed

plug.

• Since the machine is grounded through the

power outlet, you can protect yourself from

potentially hazardous electrical conditions on

the telephone network by keeping the power

cord connected to your machine when you

connect it to a telephone line. Similarly, you

can protect yourself when you want to move

your machine by disconnecting the telephone

line first and then the power cord.

aConnect the power cord.

bLift the scanner cover until it locks securely into

the open position.

NOTE

• Save all packing materials and the box in case

for any reason you must ship your machine.

• You need to purchase the correct interface

cable for the interface you want to use (for USB

or network connection).

USB cable

We recommend using a USB 2.0 cable (Type

A/B) that is no more than five metres long.

Network cable

Use a straight-through Category5 (or greater)

twisted-pair cable for 10BASE-T or

100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet Network.

NOTE

DO NOT connect the USB cable yet (if you are

using a USB cable).

NOTE

• If you do not plan to use the fax feature on this

machine, go to step 3on page 4.

• To prolong the life of the print head, provide the

best ink cartridge economy and maintain print

quality, we do not recommend unplugging the

machine frequently and/or leaving the machine

unplugged for extended periods of time. Each

time you plug the machine in, it automatically

cleans the print heads, which uses some of

your ink.

We recommend using to power down the

machine. Using allows minimal power to

the machine, resulting in periodic, but less

frequent, cleaning of the print heads.

the socket marked LINE on the machine.

Carefully guide the telephone line cord into the

cable channel and out the back of the machine.
