Your Oki printer has been carefully designed to give you years of safe, reliable performance. As with all electrical equipment, however, there are a few basic precautions you should take to avoid hurting yourself or damaging the printer: • Read the setup instructions in this handbook carefully. Be sure to save it for future reference. • Read and follow all warning and instruction labels on the printer itself. • Unplug the printer before you clean it.
• Lifting the top cover exposes hot surfaces. These are clearly labelled. Do NOT touch them. • Do not make any adjustments other than those outlined in the handbook you may cause damage requiring extensive repair work. If anything happens that indicates that your printer is not working properly or has been damaged, unplug it immediately and contact your dealer. These are some of the things to look for: • The power cable or plug is frayed or damaged.
