• Be certain the area in front of the wall receptacle into which the machine 
is plugged is free from obstruction. 
• To prevent overheating, do not cover the vent openings.
• Read all instructions before attempting to operate the equipment.
• Use this equipment only for its intended purpose.
If your stacker has an AC adapter to power the stacker:
• Use only the AC adapter designed specifically for the stacker and 
shown in Chapter 11, Supplies and Options. Third-party AC adapters 
may damage the stacker.  
• To protect against electrical shock, plug the AC adapter power cord into 
a properly grounded wall outlet. 
Do not route the AC adapter cable over sharp edges or trap it between 
furniture.
Your DM Series™ Digital Mailing System is designed to remain powered on 
at all times. This is necessary so that the printer station can perform the 
required maintenance it needs to maintain peak performance. 
Your DM Series™ System has a power switch (for the location, refer to 
Chapter 2
page 2-6) so that you can properly remove power to the system. 
If you need to power off your system, you must use the power switch. When 
you power off the system, the system immediately moves the printhead 
back to the capping station to keep the printhead from drying out. 
Powering off your system by any other means, such as a wall switch, a 
power strip, or unplugging from a wall outlet, will result in higher than normal 
ink consumption and could damage your mailing system.
NOTE: 
Always follow the specific occupational safety and health standards 
for your workplace.
