Laser Safety (100 to 120 volt Model Only)
This printer is certified as a Class I laser product under the U.S. Department
of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Radiation Performance Standard
according to the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968. This
means that the printer does not produce hazardous laser radiation.
Since radiation emitted inside the printer is completely confined within
protective housings and external covers, the laser beam cannot escape from
the machine during any phase of user operation.

IMPORTANT - For Your Safety
To ensure safe operation the supplied three-pin plug must be inserted only
into a standard three-pin power outlet that is properly grounded through the
normal household wiring.
Extension cords used with this printer must be three-pin plug type and
correctly wired to provide proper grounding. Incorrectly wired extension
cords may cause personal injury and equipment damage.
The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily does not imply that the
power is grounded and that the installation is completely safe. For your
safety, if in any doubt about the effective grounding of the power, call a
qualified electrician.
Disconnect device
You must install this printer near a power outlet that is easily accessible. In
case of an emergency, you must disconnect the power cord from the power
outlet to shut off the power completely.
Caution for batteries
Do not replace the battery. There is a danger of explosion if the battery is
incorrectly replaced. Do not disassemble, recharge or dispose of t he battery
in fire. Dispose of used batteries according to local regulations.
Caution for LAN connection
Connect this product to a LAN connection that is not subjected to over
voltages.
IT power system (For Norway only)
This product is also designed for an IT power system with phase-to-phase
voltage 230V.
If the mains plug that is supplied with this printer is not suitable for your plug
socket, remove the plug from the mains lead and fit an appropriate three-pin
plug. If the replacement plug needs a fuse, fit the same fuse as the original.
If a moulded plug comes off the mains lead, you should destroy it because a
plug with cut wires is dangerous if it is put in a live plug socket. Do not leave
it where a child might find it!
If you need to replace the plug fuse, fit a fuse that is approved by ASTA to
BS1362 with the same rating as the original fuse.
Always replace the fuse cover. Never use a plug that does not have a cover.
Warning - This printer must be earthed.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in line with the following code :
Green and Yellow: Earth
Blue: Neutral
Brown: Live
The colours of the wires in the mains lead of this printer may not match the
coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug.
If you need to fit a different plug, you should do the following.
Remove a bit of the outer cover of the lead, taking care not to damage the
coloured insulation of the wires inside.
Cut each of the three wires to the appropriate length. If you can, leave the
green and yellow wire longer than the others so that, if the lead is pulled out
of the plug, the green and yellow wire will be the last to disconnect.
Remove a short section of the coloured insulation to expose the wires.
The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the
terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "E" or the safety earth
symbol, or coloured green or green and yellow.
The wire, whi ch is coloured blu e, must be connected to the t erminal, which is
marked with the letter "N" or coloured black or blue.
The wire, whi ch is coloured brown, must be connected t o the terminal, which
is marked with the letter "L" or coloured red or brown.
The outer cover of the lead must be secured inside the plug. The coloured
wires should not hang out of the plug.
