Installation
To use this machine safely and in a trouble-free
way, carefully read the following precautions and
install the machine in an appropriate location.
WARNING
Do not install in a location that may result in
a fire or electrical shock
• A location where the ventilation slots are
blocked (too close to walls, beds, sofas, rugs,
or similar objects)
• A damp or dusty location
• A location exposed to direct sunlight or
outdoors
• A location subject to high temperatures
• A location exposed to open flames
• Near alcohol, paint thinners or other
flammable substances
Other warnings
• Do not connect unapproved cables to this
machine. Doing so may result in a fire or
electrical shock.
• Do not place necklaces and other metal
objects or containers filled with liquid on the
machine. If foreign substances come in
contact with electrical parts inside the
machine, it may result in a fire or electrical
shock.
• When installing and removing the optional
accessories, be sure to turn OFF the power,
unplug the power plug, and then disconnect
all the interface cables and power cord from
the machine. Otherwise, the power cord or
interface cables may be damaged, resulting
in a fire or electrical shock.
• If any foreign substance falls into this machine,
unplug the power plug from the AC power
outlet and contact a dealer or service center.
Do not install in the following locations
The machine may drop or fall, resulting in injury.
• An unstable location
• A location exposed to vibrations
CAUTION
Do not install in the following locations
Doing so may result in damage to the
machine.
• A location subject to temperature and
humidity extremes, whether low or high
• A location subject to dramatic changes in
temperature or humidity
• A location near equipment that generates
magnetic or electromagnetic waves
• A laboratory or location where chemical
reactions occur
• A location exposed to corrosive or toxic gases
• A location that may warp from the weight of
the machine or where the machine is liable to
sink (a carpet, etc.)
Supports (only for products with supports)
Do not remove the machine's supports after the
machine has been installed, as this may cause
the machine to fall or tip over, resulting in
personal injury.
When using wireless LAN (only for products
with a wireless LAN function)
• Install the machine at a distance of 50 meters
or less from the wireless LAN router.
• As far as possible, install in a location where
communication is not blocked by intervening
objects. The signal may be degraded when
passing through walls or floors.
• Keep the machine as far as possible from
digital cordless phones, microwave ovens, or
other equipment that emits radio waves.
CAUTION
When using a cassette feeding unit with the
Canon WG7000 Series printer, follow the
instructions in the manual to securely attach the
printer to the cassette feeding unit. Always use
the following combinations of printer and
cassette feeding unit.
Canon WG7000 Series: Use Canon Cassette
Feeding Unit CF10.
Using a different combination of printer and
cassette feeding unit than shown above, using a
cassette feeding unit not listed above, or not
attaching the printer securely to the cassette
feeding unit may be unstable and may result in
injury.
Power Supply
WARNING
• Use only a power supply that meets the
specified voltage requirements. Failure to do
so may result in a fire or electrical shock.
• Do not use power cords other than the one
provided, as this may result in a fire or
electrical shock.
• The provided power cord is intended for use
with this machine. Do not connect the power
cord to other devices.
• Do not modify, pull, forcibly bend, or perform
any other act that may damage the power
cord. Do not place heavy objects on the
power cord. Damaging the power cord may
result in a fire or electrical shock.
• Do not plug in or unplug the power plug
with wet hands, as this may result in an
electrical shock.
• Do not use extension cords or multi-plug
power strips with the machine. Doing so may
result in a fire or electrical shock.
• Do not wrap the power cord or tie it in a knot,
as this may result in a fire or electrical shock.
• Insert the power plug completely into the AC
power outlet. Failure to do so may result in a
fire or electrical shock.
• Remove the power plug completely from the
AC power outlet during a thunder storm.
Failure to do so may result in a fire, electrical
shock, or damage to the machine.
• Make sure that the power supply for the
machine is safe, and has a steady voltage.
• Keep the power cord away from a heat
source; failure to do this may cause the power
cord coating to melt, resulting in a fire or
electrical shock.
• If excessive stress is applied to the connection
part of the power cord, it may damage the
power cord or the wires inside the machine
may disconnect. This could result in a fire.
Avoid the following situations:
– Connecting and disconnecting the power
cord frequently.
– Tripping over the power cord.
– The power cord is bent near the connection
part, and continuous stress is being applied
to the power outlet or the connection part.
– Applying excessive force on the power plug.
CAUTION
• Install this machine near the power outlet
and leave sufficient space around the power
plug so that it can be unplugged easily in an
emergency.
• To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG
or larger telecommunication line cord.
IMPORTANT
When connecting power
• Do not connect the power cord to an
uninterruptible power source. Doing so may
result in malfunction of or damage to the
machine at power failure.
• If you plug this machine into an AC power
outlet with multiple sockets, do not use the
remaining sockets to connect other devices.
• Do not connect the power cord to the
auxiliary AC power outlet on a computer.
Other precautions
Electrical noise may cause this machine to
malfunction or lose data.
Handling
WARNING
• Immediately unplug the power plug from the
AC power outlet and contact a dealer or
service center if the machine makes an
unusual noise, emits an unusual smell, or
emits smoke or excessive heat. Continued use
may result in a fire or electrical shock.
• Do not disassemble or modify this machine.
There are high-voltage and high-temperature
components inside the machine. Disassembly
or modification may result in a fire or
electrical shock.
• Place the machine where children will not
come in contact with the power cord and
other cables or gears and electrical parts
inside the machine. Failure to do so may
result in unexpected accidents.
• Do not use flammable sprays near this
machine. If flammable substances come into
contact with electrical parts inside this
machine, it may result in a fire or electrical
shock.
