PRE-INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS FOR CANON FACSIMILE EQUIPMENT

A. Location

Supply a suitable table, cabinet, or desk. See Appendix for the unit’s dimensions and weight.

B. Order Information

1. Only a single line, touch tone, or rotary telephone set is to be used.

2. Order an RJ11-C modular jack (USOC code), which should be installed by the phone company. If the RJ11-C jack is not present, installation cannot occur.

3. Order a normal business line from your telephone company’s business representative. The line should be a regular voice grade line or equivalent. Use one line per unit.

DDD (DIRECT DISTANCE DIAL) LINE

IDDD (INTERNATIONAL DIRECT DISTANCE DIAL) LINE IF YOU COMMUNICATE OVERSEAS

Canon recommends an individual line following industry standards [e.g., the 2500 (Touch Tone) or 500 (Rotary/Pulse Dial) telephones]. A dedicated extension of a PBX unit without “Call Waiting” can be used with your unit. Key telephone systems are not recommended because they send non-standard signals to individual telephones for ringing and special codes, which may cause a fax error.

C. Power Requirements

This equipment should be connected to a standard 120 volt AC, threewire grounded outlet only. Do not connect this unit to an outlet or power line shared with other appliances that cause “electrical noise.” Air conditioners, electric typewriters, copiers, and machines of this sort generate noise which often interferes with communications equipment and the sending and receiving of documents.

Preface

CONNECTION OF THE EQUIPMENT

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. On the rear panel of this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC Registration Number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. If requested, this information must be given to the telephone company. This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company. Connection to party lines is subject to state tariffs.

An FCC compliant telephone cord and modular jack is provided with this equipment. This equipment is designed to be connected to the telephone network or premises wiring using a compatible modular jack which is Part 68 compliant. See Installation Instructions for details.

This REN is used to determine the quantity of devices which may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive REN’s on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but all areas, the sum of the REN’s should not exceed five(5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to the line, as determined by the total REN’s, contact the telephone company to determine the maximum REN for the calling area.

IN CASE OF EQUIPMENT MALFUNCTION

Should any malfunction occur which cannot be corrected by the procedures described in this User’s Guide, disconnect the equipment from the telephone line or unplug the power cord. The telephone line should not be reconnected nor the power cord plugged in until the problem is completely resolved. Users should contact their local authorized Canon Facsimile Dealer for servicing of equipment.

RIGHTS OF THE TELEPHONE COMPANY

Should the equipment cause harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may temporarily disconnect service. The telephone company also retains the right to make changes in facilities and services which may affect the operation of this equipment. When such changes are necessary, the telephone company is required to give adequate prior notice to the user.

Preface

Canon recommends an individual line following industry standards [e.g., the 2500 (Touch Tone) or 500 (Rotary/Pulse Dial) telephones]. A dedicated extension of a PBX unit without “Camp On” signals is also permissible with a fax unit. Key telephone systems are not recommended because they send non-standard signals to individual telephones for ringing and special codes, which may cause a fax error.

C. Power Requirements

The power outlet should be a three-prong grounded receptacle (Single or Duplex). It should be independent from copiers, heaters, air conditioners, or any electric equipment that is thermostatically controlled. The rated value is 120 volts and 15 amperes. The CA11A modular jack should be relatively close to the power outlet to facilitate installation.

Preface

NOTICE

Safety Information

Laser Safety

The LASER CLASS 2060P complies with 21 CFR Chapter 1 Subchapter J as a Class 1 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 LASER CLASS 2060P does not produce hazardous laser radiation.

Since radiation emitted inside the LASER CLASS 2060P is completely confined within protective housings, and external covers, the laser beam cannot escape from the machine during any phase of user operation.

CDRH Regulations

The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration implemented regulations for laser products on August 2, 1976. These regulations apply to laser products manufactured from August 1, 1976. Compliance is mandatory for products marketed in the United States.

Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than

those specified in this user’s guide may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Preface

This label is attached to the laser scanner unit inside the LASER CLASS 2060P and is not in a user access area.

Reduced-size printing

The LASER CLASS 2060P automatically scales received faxes to fit the size of the paper loaded in the paper cassette or the multi-purpose tray. So if your client is sending you a fax on A4-size paper and you have lettersize paper in the multi-purpose tray, the fax will be scaled down and printed on letter-size paper.

Automatic dialing and broadcasting

To make faxing even easier, the LASER CLASS 2060P provides several automatic dialing methods: One-Touch Speed Dialing, Coded Speed Dialing, and Group Dialing. The LASER CLASS 2060P also enables you to broadcast faxes or send faxes at a preset time to as many as 133 locations at once.

Copier Features

Up to 99 copies

The LASER CLASS 2060P can make up to 99 copies of a document at a time, at a rate of up to six copies per minute.

600 × 600 dpi resolution

The LASER CLASS 2060P copies documents at 600 × 600 dpi when using direct copying and 300 × 600 dpi when using memory copying.

Copy reduction

The LASER CLASS 2060P can reduce copies to 90%, 80% or 70% of their original size. This allows you to copy legal-size documents onto letter-size paper, for example.
