Safety Instructions For An Epson Printer

The Epson printer is one of the more popular kinds of printer on the market. Many people have opted for an Epson printer over all the other brands for some reason or other. Some of these people will have read the instruction manual carefully, others will have decided that it is much simpler to discover the machine by means of trial and error. This article is just going to go over some of the safety operating procedures for an Epson printer.

The first thing to note is that, like every other machine, an Epson printer uses electricity. This means that water is not a good thing to have hanging around near the printer. If you need to clean your Epson printer it is recommended that you switch off and unplug the printer. You should also use only a damp cloth to do the cleaning, never a wet one.

The Epson printer should also always be placed on a stable surface. The printing process will cause some movement in the printer and if it is on an unstable surface it stands a good chance of falling off and being badly damaged.

Another thing to note is that a printer has air vents somewhere on the casing of the machine. This is to allow the machine to stay cool while it is operating much like a computer. It is very important that these air vents are not blocked by a sofa or cabinet or anything at all. If you air vents are blocked then the printer will most likely overheat and become useless.

You should also take really good care of the plug and cable. This is what provides power to the Epson printer. If the cable becomes frayed or damaged in any other way it is vital that you replace it before using the printer again. Failure to do so may result in an electrical fire or someone getting shocked. The best place to plug the printer in will be somewhere where the cable is not going to be walked on. It is also a good idea to make sure that the plug that you use for the printer has some kind of surge protection on it. Printers are often very sensitive to things like power surges and need to be protected against them as much as possible.

If something does happened to the printer, say it gets dropped or some water spilled on it, it is very important that you contact the Epson contact centre to have it checked out by a professional technician. It is not advisable that you try to service it yourself as you do not really know the inner workings of an Epson printer and may well invalidate the warranty on the machine if you do try to service it yourself.

The Epson printer is very popular for a reason. It is a very good brand of printer and also fairly hardy. You do need to make sure that you take good care of it though so that it will last a long time.
