NOTE: When you use the printer with the multipurpose feeder opened, do not locate the printer in direct sunlight.
Doing so may cause a malfunction or unnatural screen image.
Leave enough room to open the printer trays, covers, and options. It is also important to allow space around the printer
for proper ventilation.
