The following items should be noted in order to
maintain the performance of the printer.  Also
refer to the sections “Warning” (page 2).

• If the printer will not be used for an extended

period of time, remove the paper supply/eject
tray from the printer and store it in the tray case,
turn off the printer, and then unplug the power
cord.

• When transporting the printer, remove all

accessories from the printer.  Carrying the
printer while any accessories are still in the
printer can result in damage to the printer.

Water droplets (called “condensation”) may form
inside the printer if it is moved from a cold
location to a warm one, or if it is placed in a
humid room.  Operating the printer while
condensation is present could not only cause the
printer to operate incorrectly, but could also
result in damage to the printer.  If there is any
possibility that there is condensation inside the
printer, turn the power off and allow the printer
to sit until the condensation evaporates.

• Before cleaning the printer, turn the power off

and unplug the power cord.

• If the cabinet is dirty, dampen a cloth with

water or a mild, dilute detergent solution, wring
the cloth out thoroughly, and then wipe the dirt
away.  Afterwards, wipe away any moisture
with a dry cloth.

• Do not use paint thinner, benzene, alcohol,

chemical dust cloths, or other materials that
could harm the finish of the cabinet.

Before sending the printer for repair, repeat the
checks. If it still doesn’t operate properly, please
consult the store from which you purchased the
printer or you Sony service center.
