Safety Precautions
After installing the High Capacity Feeder, lock down the brakes on the casters at the
front of the High Capacity Feeder. Failure to lock down the brakes can cause the printer
to move unexpectedly, resulting in injury.
Other Precautions
•Operate the printer in a location that meets the following conditions:
Ambient temperature range of 50-90˚F (10 to 32˚C), relative humidity of 15 to 85% (no
condensation)
If operating the printer with an ambient temperature of 90˚F (32˚C), the relative humidity
should not exceed 65%. If the relative humidity reaches 85%, the ambient temperature
should not exceed 82˚F (28˚C).
NOTE: Do not place the printer in a room where there are sudden fluctuations in temperature, and do not
move the printer from a cold place to a warm humid place. If you do, condensation may occur
within the printer and print quality may deteriorate.
•Do not place the printer in direct sunlight, as this may damage the printer.
•To prevent trays or consumables from falling out, do not tilt the printer more than 10
degrees in any direction.
•When moving the printer, remove the toner cartridges. Do not reuse toner cartridges once
you have removed them from the printer. Loose toner can spill inside the printer and deteriorate print quality.
•Do not place the printer directly next to an air conditioner or heater, as this affects the
temperature inside the printer and can cause damage.
Precautions for Power and Ground Connections
Three power specifications are listed below. The specifications that apply to your
printer depend on its configuration. Connect the power plug only to a properly rated
power outlet. Otherwise, it can cause fire or electric shocks. If in doubt, contact your
GCC Customer Support Center.
•North American (110v) models:
Rated voltage:110-127 V
Rated frequency:60 Hz
•European (220v) models:
Rated voltage:220-240 V
Rated frequency:50/60 Hz
GCC Elite Color 16 Series User’s Guide
Safety Precautions
Ensure that the plug connection is dustless. In a damp environment, a contaminated
connector can draw a non-negligible amount of current that can generate heat and eventually cause fire over an extended period of time.
Always use the power cord provided with your printer. When an extension power cord
is required, always use a properly rated cord.
If you use a cord with an unspecified current rating, the printer or plug may emit smoke
or become hot to the touch.
Do not attempt to modify, pull, bend, chafe, or otherwise damage the power cord. Do
not place a heavy object on the cord. A damaged cord can cause fire or electric shocks.
Never touch a power cord with wet hands. This constitutes an electric shock hazard.
Stop operation immediately if your printer emits smoke, excessive heat, unusual noise
or smell, or if water is spilled onto the printer. These conditions can cause fire. Immediately turn off and unplug the printer, and contact your GCC Customer Support Center.
8
Cautions
To prevent fire or electric shocks, follow the instructions below based on your printer’s
configuration. If in doubt, contact your GCC Customer Support Center.
If the power cord is broken or insulated wires are exposed, ask your GCC Customer
Support Center for a replacement. Using a damaged cord can cause fire or electric
shocks.
Do not unplug or replug the printer while it is on. Unplugging a live connector can
deform the plug and cause fire.
When unplugging the printer, grasp the plug instead of the cord. Forcibly pulling on a
cord can damage it and cause fire or electric shocks.
Be sure to switch off and unplug the printer before accessing the interior of the printer
for cleaning, maintenance, or fault clearance. Access to a live printer’s interior can
cause electric shocks.
Once a month, unplug the printer and check the power cord for the following:
•The power cord is plugged firmly into a receptacle.
•The plug is not excessively heated, rusted, or bent.
•The plug and receptacle are free of dust.
•The cord is not cracked or frayed.
If you notice any unusual conditions, contact your GCC Customer Support Center.
GCC Elite Color 16 Series User’s Guide 9
Safety Precautions
When the printer is not used over an extended period of time, switch it off and unplug
it. If an unused printer is left connected to a power source for a long period, degraded
insulation can cause electric shocks, current leakages, or fire.
Switch off the printer before connecting the interface cable or options. Connecting the
cable or card with a live printer can cause electric shocks.
Other Precautions
•This printer may interfere with radio or television reception, causing flickering or distor-
tion. This can be determined by turning the printer off and on. To correct interference,
perform one, or a combination of the following procedures:
•Move the printer away from TV and/or radio.
•Reposition the printer, TV and/or radio.
•If the printer, TV and/or radio are plugged into the same outlet, unplug them, then plug
them into different outlets.
•Reposition the TV and/or radio antennas and cables until the interference stops. For exter-
nal antennas, consult your local electrician.
•Use coaxial cable with the antennas.
Operating Precautions
Do not place any liquid containers such as vases or coffee cups on the printer.
Liquids spilled on the printer constitue a fire and electrical shock hazard.
Do not place any metal parts such as staples or clips on the printer. If metal and flammable parts get into the printer, they can short-circuit internal components, and cause
fire or electric shocks.
If debris (metal or liquid) gets into the printer, turn off and unplug the printer. Contact
your GCC Customer Support Center. Operating a debris-contaminated printer can
cause fire or electric shocks.
Never open or remove printer covers that are secured with screws unless specifically
instructed to do so in the this manual. A high-voltage component can cause electric
shocks.
Do not try to alter the printer’s configuration or modify any parts. An unauthorized
modification can cause smoke or fire.
This printer complies with the IEC60825 (Class 1) international laser standard. This
means that the printer does not present any risk of injury to persons from laser radiation. Various covers confine the laser radiation to the inside of the printer; hence, users
cannot incur injury from the laser under normal operating conditions. Removing covers, unless instructed to do so in this manual, can cause injury from laser radiation.
10 GCC Elite Color 16 Series User’s Guide
Safety Precautions
Never touch a labeled area found on or near the fuser unit. You can burn yourself. If a
sheet of paper is wrapped around the fuser roller, do not try to remove it by yourself, as
this may cause injuries or burns. Turn off the printer immediately and contact your
GCC Customer Support Center.
Do not place any heavy objects on the printer. An off-balance printer can fall over or the
heavy object can fall, causing injuries.
Do not use highly flammable sprays or solvents in or around the printer, as this can
result in fire.
When removing paper jams, make sure no pieces of paper are left inside the printer, as
this can cause fire. If the paper is wrapped around the fuser or roller, or you cannot see
the jam you are trying to clear, do not attempt to remove the paper by yourself, as this
may cause injury or burns.Turn off the printer immediately, and contact the place of
purchase or a GCC Customer Support Center.
