● Precautions for use

WARNING

● If the machine is used after foreign matter (metal fragments, water, or liquid) has entered the machine, this may result in fire or electric shock.

→ Turn the main unit’s power switch OFF, and then remove the power plug from the

outlet. Contact the sales distributor.

● If the machine is used after heat, smoke, strange smell, or other abnormality is detected, this may result in fire or electric shock. → Turn the main unit’s power switch OFF, and then remove the power plug from the

outlet. Contact the sales distributor.

● Do not insert or drop metal, flammable material, or other matter through the

ventilation holes into the machine interior.

→ Doing so may result in fire or electric shock.

● Do not place flower vases, flowerpots, cups, or water containers (including metal

containers) on top of the machine. → Fire or electric shock may result if liquid spills inside the machine.

CAUTION

● Some paper may cause paper dust in the machine. Keep clean the machine and sufficient ventilation.

● Caution for Grounding (Be sure to use the supplied power cord)

WARNING

● Use only the power cord that is provided among the accessories. Insert the power cord plug firmly into the socket, so that proper electrical contact is effected.

→ Use of any other power cord could result in imperfect grounding.

If grounding is imperfect and electrical leakage occurs, fire or electric shock could result.

● Caution for Power Supply and Power Cord

WARNING

● Do not use a source voltage other than that specified. Do not connect two or more loads to a single outlet.

→ Doing so may result in fire or electric shock.

● Do not remove or insert the power plug with wet hands. → Doing so may result in electric shock.

● Do not damage, break, or modify the power cord.

Do not place heavy objects on, tug, or unnecessarily bend the power cord.

→ Doing so may result in fire or electric shock.

WARNING

● Remove the power plug itself, not the cord. → Tugging the cord may damage it (expose conductors, or cause disconnections,

etc.), resulting in fire or electric shock.

● Prohibition of Disassembly or Modification

WARNING

● Do not modify the machine.

→ Doing so may result in fire or electric shock.

● Do not remove the rear lid, cabinet, or covers from the machine. → The inside of the machine contains high-voltage parts, which may cause electric

shock.

● Caution for Location

WARNING

● Do not place the machine in a humid or dusty area. → Doing so may result in fire or electric shock.

● Once the machine is in position, secure in place using the casters. → If the machine falls over, this could result in personal injury.

CAUTION

● Before moving the machine, remove the power plug from the outlet. → If the cord is damaged, this may result in fire or electric shock.

● Do not place the machine in an unstable position, such as on an unsteady support

or sloping area.

→ If the machine is dropped or falls over, this could result in personal injury.

● Do not place the machine in a place subject to direct sunlight or heating equipment

such as a stove. → It may degrade ink quality and affect printing. The machine also may malfunction.

● Avoid placing the machine in a place subject to high or low temperature or high

humidity.

→ The paper absorbs moisture and it may cause paper jam or creasing.

vii

WARNING

● Install the machine on the optional cabinet.

● Do not use any other desks or table than optional cabinet.

● Do not place the machine on the desk. → If the machine is dropped or falls over, this could result in personal injury.

■ How Master Making and Printing are Performed

● Master Making

In the “master making” process, the old master on the drum is removed while the thermal head creates the scanned image on the new master and transfers it onto the drum.

● Printing

In the “printing” process, paper separated from the stack by the feeder roller and paper separator unit is pressed against the drum unit by the press roller. There are small holes over only the image area of the master that is attached to the drum, and ink that seeps from these holes is transferred to the paper. The paper is then peeled from the master by the paper stripper finger. The paper is directed onto the paper ejection belt by a fan unit and discharged from the machine.

3. Fan sheets and align them.

4. Put the sheets between the “side guides” and push them

to the inside.

REFERENCE:

About 1250 sheets of 64gsm high-quality paper can be

loaded.

IMPORTANT: Height of sheets loaded should not exceed 140mm.

5. Adjust the “feed pressure adjuster lever” to the paper

thickness.

If no paper is fed: Adjust the “feed pressure adjuster lever” to (HIGH).

If 2 sheets are fed:

Adjust the “feed pressure adjuster lever” to (LOW).

● How to Supply or Change Paper While Printing

If paper runs out during printing or when you change paper, press the “feed tray descend switch” to lower the “feed tray”.

1. Make sure that the machine stops.

If printing is in process, press the STOP key.

2. Press the “feed tray descend switch”.

The “feed tray” is lowered for the time that the “feed tray

descend switch” is pressed.

REFERENCE:

When paper runs out or papers in the feed tray are

removed, the feed tray is automatically lowered.

3. Follow the steps 2, 3, and 4 in “How to Set Papers” (page 12).

IMPORTANT:

y When supplying different-size paper, set the “paper stacker guides“ and “paper

stopper“ again.

y When supplying paper of different quality, adjust the “feed pressure adjuster lever“ and

“separation pressure adjuster knob“.

● How to Set the Print Tray

1. Open out the “print tray”.

2. Open out the “paper stacker guides”.

3. Open out the “paper stopper”.

4. Adjust the “paper stacker guides” and “paper stopper”

to the size of the printing paper.

■ Loading Documents

● Loading Document on Document Glass Plate

The document can be loaded in the “portrait” or landscape” position.

IMPORTANT:

y A4, B5, and A5-size documents can be loaded in the “portrait” or landscape” position.

y Use the landscape position when enlarging or reducing from standard-size documents

to standard-size paper, such as A4 to A3.

y A3 and B4 documents can only be loaded in the landscape position.

►How to Load Document

1. Gently open the “scanner cover”.

2. Place the “document face down” on the document

glass plate, aligned with the guide (scale).

REFERENCE:

When you load a non standard-size document, place it with the center of the document aligned with the arrow on the guide (scale).

3. Gently close the “scanner cover”.

IMPORTANT:

When you place a thick document such as a book on the document glass plate, take care not to force the scanner cover as this may damage the document glass plate with a risk of personal injury.

● Loading Document in Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) (Optional)

Load documents that consist of a series of sheets to be printed in the ADF.

When one or more documents are loaded in the ADF, master making and printing are automatically repeated until the document tray is empty.

IMPORTANT: ADF mode is automatically selected when a document is loaded in the ADF. The ADF then takes priority over the document glass plate in the master making process.

The document can be loaded in the “portrait” or landscape” position.

IMPORTANT:

y A4, B5, and A5-size documents can be loaded in the “portrait” or landscape” position. y Use landscape position when enlarging or reducing from standard-size documents to

standard-size paper, such as A4 to A3.

y A3 and B4 documents can only be loaded in the landscape position. y Shadow erasure function cannot be available with the ADF.

►How to Load Document

1. Align the “document guides” with the marks for the size of document to be loaded in the ADF.

2. Place the “document” with printing face up in the document tray. Master making starts with the top document in the tray.

IMPORTANT:

Do not attempt to remove or add to the documents in the document tray while master making and printing are in progress.
