Safety Instructions
Laser Printer Precautions
This printer uses laser technology. The following precautions
apply whenever you use the laser printer. Even if you are familiar
with other types of printers, be sure to follow these precautions
carefully to ensure safe, efficient operation.
Because the printer weighs approximately 70 kg (154 lb), you
❏
should not lift or carry it by yourself. Four people should carry
it, lifting it by the correct positions. Refer to the instructions
in the
Unpacking Guide
Be careful not to touch the fuser, which is marked CAUTION!
❏
HIGH TEMPERATURE, or the surrounding areas. If the
printer has been in use, the fuser and the surrounding areas
may be very hot.
CAUTION! HIGH TEMPERATURE
.
Avoid touching the components inside the printer unless
❏
instructed to do so in this guide.
Safety Instructions
1
Page 10
Never force the printer’s components into place. Although the
❏
printer is designed to be sturdy, rough handling can damage
it.
When handling the toner cartridges, always place them on a
❏
clean, smooth surface.
Do not attempt to modify or take apart the toner cartridge. It
❏
cannot be refilled.
Try not to touch the toner and avoid all contact with your eyes.
❏
Do not dispose of the used toner cartridges, fuser oil roll, or
❏
waste toner collector in fire, as they can explode and cause
injury. Dispose of them according to local regulations.
Do not use a toner cartridge for at least one hour after moving
❏
it from a cool to a warm environment.
Keep the fuser oil roll horizontal at all times. Do not tilt it or
❏
lean it against something, as it can cause oil leakage and
reduce print quality.
When removing the photoconductor unit, avoid exposing it
❏
to room light any longer than necessary. The unit contains a
light-sensitive drum, which is the green cylinder that can be
seen through the openings to the unit. Exposure to light can
damage the drum, causing dark or light areas to appear on
the printed page and reducing the service life of the drum. If
you need to keep the unit out of the printer for long periods,
cover it with an opaque cloth.
Safety Instructions
2
Page 11
Be sure not to scratch the surface of the drum. When you
❏
remove the photoconductor unit from the printer, always set
the unit on a clean, smooth surface. Also, avoid touching the
drum, since oil from your skin can permanently damage its
surface and may affect print quality.
To get the best print quality, do not store the photoconductor
❏
unit in an area subject to direct sunlight, dust, salty air, or
corrosive gasses (such as ammonia). Avoid locations subject
to extremes or rapid changes of heat or humidity. Also, be
sure to keep consumable components out of the reach of
children.
Do not leave jammed paper in the printer. It can cause the
❏
printer to overheat.

Testing the Printer
To test whether the printer is set up correctly, print a status sheet.
The status sheet contains information about the printer, including
the current settings. To print a status sheet, follow the steps below.
Loading paper
1. Fan a stack of A4 or Letter size paper, then tap it on a flat
surface to even the edges.
2. Be sure to load paper into the MP tray long edge first. Load
the stack of paper with the printable surface up and left edge
of the paper resting against the left paper guide of the MP tray.
Then slide the right paper guide against the right edge of the
paper.

Connecting to the Computer
To connect your computer to your printer’s built-in parallel
interface, you need a shielded, twisted-pair parallel interface
cable that is IEEE-1284 compatible.
Note:
If you installed the optional interface card, you need a different type of
cable. See the optional interface card’s manual.
1. Make sure that both the printer and the computer are off.
2. Plug the cable connector securely into the printer’s parallel
interface connector, and squeeze the wire clips together until
they lock in place on both sides of the connector.
Note:
If your cable has a ground wire, connect it to the printer’s ground
connector as shown below.
3. Plug the other end of the cable into the computer. (If the cable
has a ground wire at the computer end, attach it to the ground
connector at the back of the computer.)
After you connect the printer to your computer, install the printer
software as described in the next section.

Safety Information
This printer is certified 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 printer does
not produce hazardous laser radiation.
Since radiation emitted by the laser is completely confined within
protective housings and external covers, the laser beam cannot
escape from the machine during any phase of user operation.
The EPSON ColorPage EPL-C8200 is a page printer which utilizes
a semiconductor laser.
There is no possibility of danger from the laser, provided that the
printer is operated according to the instructions in the guides
provided.
Since radiation emitted by the laser is completely confined within
protective housings and external covers, the laser beam cannot
escape from the machine during any phase of user operation.
