Operations and Terms Used in This Manual

This machine makes effective use of memory in order to perform print operations efficiently. For example, as soon as the machine has scanned the original that you want to copy, it can immediately scan the next person's original. You can also print from this machine, using a function other than the Copy function. In this machine, these operations take place in a complex way, so that not only copies, but also various kinds of prints may sometimes have to wait their turn before they can be output.
To avoid confusion when reading this manual, the terms "scanning", "printing", and "copying" used throughout this manual are defined as set out below. There are some cases in which the scanning of an original when making a copy, and the process of making a print, are described separately.
Scanning
Printing
Outputting a copy, or outputting data sent from a personal computer to the machine.
Scanning an original to be copied, or scanning an original to be stored as data in a mailbox.
ix
Copying
Scanning of an original, printing through finishing.

Never open covers other than those instructed in this manual. Do not remove the caution label attached to the cover of the laser scanner unit. If the laser beam escapes from the machine, exposure may cause serious damage to
your eyes.

Maintenance and Inspections

WARNING
When cleaning the machine, rst turn OFF the main power switch, then disconnect the power cord. Failure to observe these steps may result in a re or electrical shock.
Disconnect the power cord from the power outlet regularly, and clean the area around the base of the power plug's metal pins and the power outlet with a dry cloth to ensure that all dust and grime is removed. If the power cord is connected for a long period of time in a damp, dusty, or smoky location, dust can build up around the power plug and become damp. This may cause a short circuit and result in a re.
Clean the machine using a slightly dampened cloth with a mild detergent mixed with water. Do not use alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, or other ammable substances. Check detergent for ammability prior to use. If ammable substances come into contact with a high-voltage area inside the machine, it may result in a re or electrical shock.
There are some areas inside the machine which are subject to high-voltages. When removing jammed paper or when inspecting the inside of the machine, do not allow necklaces, bracelets, or other metal objects to touch the inside of the machine, as this may result in burns or electrical shock.
Do not burn or throw used toner cartridges into open ames, as this may cause the toner remaining inside the cartridge to ignite, resulting in burns or a re.
xviii
CAUTION
