Electrostatic Discharge Caution • For any of these procedures that involve touching internal components of the printer, the procedure must be performed at a static-free workstation, an anti-static wrist strap must be worn and properly terminated, or other appropriate protection must be used.

Electric Shock Hazard • Some troubleshooting procedures direct the use of bypassing inserts (also called "cheaters") to enable troubleshooting with power on and the covers open. For these procedures, use extreme caution to avoid touching any internal parts of the printer with your hands or any tools, and be sure to remove any bypassing inserts before placing equipment back into service.
