Important Safety Instructions
Except as specifically described in this guide, do not attempt to service the machine yourself. Never attempt to
disassemble the machine: opening and removing its interior covers will expose you to dangerous voltages and
other risks. For all service, contact Canon Customer Care Center, or a Canon Authorized Service Facility.
What Can I Do with This Machine?
Handling and Maintenance
Be careful when removing printed paper from output trays or when aligning it, because it may be hot and result
in burn injury.
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the machine.
–
Do not subject the machine to strong physical shocks or vibrations.
–
Always unplug the machine before moving or cleaning it.
–
To avoid paper jams, never unplug the power cord, open the left cover or add or remove
–

When transporting the machine, be sure to remove the toner cartridge from the
–
machine.
Place the toner cartridge in its original protective bag or wrap it in a thick cloth to
–
prevent exposure to light.
Always use the handles (on the left side) and the hand grips (on the right side) of
–
the machine when you lift the machine. Never lift the machine by any of its trays or
attachments.

Pre-Installation Requirements for Canon Facsimile Equipment
A. Location
Supply a suitable table, cabinet, or desk. See p. 13-2 for the machine’s weight and dimensions.
B. Order Information
1. Only a single line, touch-tone or rotary telephone set is to be used.
What Can I Do with This Machine?
2. Order an RJ11-C modular jack (USOC code), which should be installed by the telephone
company. If the RJ11-C jack is not present, installation cannot occur.
3. Order a regular voice grade line or the equivalent from your telephone company’s business
representative.
Use one line per machine.
DDD (DIRECT DISTANCE DIAL) LINE
-or-
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 off a PBX machine without “Call Waiting” can be
used with the machine. 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. This machine
is not supported on Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP).
C. Power Requirements
This equipment should be connected to a standard 120-volt AC, three-wire grounded outlet
only. Do not connect this machine 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 electrical noise which often interferes with communications equipment and the
sending and receiving of documents.
xxvi
Connection of the Equipment
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted
by the ACTA. On the rear panel of this equipment is a label that contains, among other
information, a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this
number must be provided to the telephone company.
An FCC compliant telephone cord and modular jack are 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 the Starter Guide for details.
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is used to determine the number of devices that
may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result
in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas, the
sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that
may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone
company. The REN for this product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:
AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 10
is a REN of 1.0).
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company.
Connection to party lines is subjected to state tariffs.
What Can I Do with This Machine?
In Case of Equipment Malfunction
Should any malfunction occur which cannot be corrected by the procedures described in
this guide, disconnect the equipment from the telephone line, unplug the network cable (if
connected), and unplug the power cord. The telephone line should not be reconnected or
the power cord plugged in until the problem is completely resolved. Users should contact
Canon Authorized Service Facilities for servicing of equipment. Information regarding
Authorized Service Facility locations can be obtained by calling Canon Customer Care
Center (1-800-828-4040).
xxvii
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.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept an interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant
to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
•
receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
•
xxviii
Use of shielded cable is required to comply with class B limits in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC
Rules.
Do not make any changes or modifications to the equipment unless otherwise specified
in this manual. If such changes or modifications should be made, you could be required to
stop operation of the equipment.

Toner Cartridge
The lifetime of the Canon genuine starter toner cartridge which comes with the
machine is approximately 2,500 pages, the Canon genuine replacement toner
cartridge is approximately 5,000 pages. The page counts are on the basis of “ISO/IEC
19752”* when printing A4 size paper with the default print density setting. The level
of toner consumption varies depending on the type of documents printed. If your
average document contains a lot of graphics, tables, or charts, the life of the toner
cartridge will be shorter as they consume more toner. When you are replacing a toner
cartridge, be sure to use a toner cartridge designed for this product. To purchase
the Canon genuine replacement toner cartridge, contact your local Canon dealer or
Canon Customer Care Center (U.S.A.:1-800-828-4040, Canada:1-800-652-2666).
* “ISO/IEC 19752” is the global standard related to “Method for the determination of toner cartridge yield
for monochromatic electrophotographic printers and multi-function devices that may contain printer
components” issued by ISO (International Organization for Standardization).

Maintaining the Toner Cartridge
Keep the toner cartridge away from computer screens, disk drives, and floppy disks. The
●
magnet inside the toner cartridge may harm these items.
Avoid locations subject to high temperature, high humidity, or rapid changes in
●
temperature.
Do not expose the toner cartridge to direct sunlight or bright light for more than five
●
minutes.
Store the toner cartridge in its protective bag. Do not open the bag until you are ready to
●
install the toner cartridge in the machine.
Save the toner cartridge’s protective bag in case you need to repack and transport the
●
toner cartridge at a later date.
Do not store the toner cartridge in a salty atmosphere or where there are corrosive gases
●
Before Using the Machine
such as from aerosol sprays.
Do not remove the toner cartridge from the machine unnecessarily.
●
Do not open the drum protective shutter on the toner cartridge. Print quality may
●
deteriorate if the drum surface is exposed to light or is damaged.
Always hold the toner cartridge by its handle to avoid touching the drum protective
●
shutter.
Do not stand the toner cartridge on end, and do not turn it upside down. If toner
●
becomes caked in the toner cartridge, it may become impossible to free it even by
shaking the toner cartridge.
If there is a toner powder leakage, make sure not to inhale or touch the toner powder. If it
●
comes in contact with your skin, rinse with cold water using soap. If you feel an irritation
on your skin or inhale the powder, consult a doctor immediately.
When removing the toner cartridge from the machine, make sure to remove it carefully. If
●
not removed with care, the toner powder may scatter and come in contact with your eyes
and mouth. If this happens, rinse with water and consult a doctor immediately.
Keep the toner cartridge away from small children. If they ingest the toner powder,
●
consult a doctor immediately.
Do not disassemble the toner cartridge. The toner powder may scatter and come in
●
contact with your eyes and mouth. If this happens, rinse with water and consult a doctor
immediately.
Do not place the toner cartridge in fire. Toner powder is flammable.
