The purpose of the International ENERGY STAR Program is to
protect the quality of the global environment through the efficient use
of electric power that is generated chiefly by fossil fuels.
The Konica 1312 copier conforms to the International ENERGY
STAR Program when used with the following Power Save function.
Power Save function
The Power Save function saves energy by reducing power
consumption of the fixing unit below 5W. To accomplish this,
Power Save puts the copier in the
function automatically activates the sleep state if the copier is
inactive for 30 minutes initially, or you can choose another sleep
state, as desired, from 2, 5, 30, 60, 120, or 240 minutes. If you
wish to make changes to the Power Save function, contact your
Konica service representative.

Ozone Statement
During operation of the Konica 1312 copier, ozone is generated in
amounts too small to be harmful to human health. Operating the
1312 in a poorly ventilated room for an extended period of time or
making a large number of copies will cause an unpleasant ozone
odor. We recommend that you locate the Konica 1312 Copier in a
well-ventilated room to maintain a comfortable working environment.
Ozone generated by this machine is as follows:
Maximum 0.3 ppm or less / Average 0.1ppm or less.

■ Warning - To Prevent Fire and Electrical Shock
❏Do not expose the high-voltage area inside the copier by removing
the rear cover or any other cover from the copier.
■ Cautions - To Prevent Fire and Electrical Shock
❏Do not operate the copier on a voltage other than the voltage
stated. Be sure the copier does not share the same wall outlet with
other electrical equipment.
❏Do not place any liquid-filled vessel or metal on the copier. Should
any foreign matter (metal chips or water or other liquid) enter the
copier, immediately disconnect the power plug and contact your
Konica service representative.
❏Do not scratch, damage, or modify the power cord. Never place any
heavy item on the power cord or tug it or forcibly bend it.
❏Do not modify the copier in any way or attempt to repair it yourself.
Always contact your Konica service representative for help.
❏If the copier emits smoke, abnormal odor, or is unduly heated,
immediately stop using it, disconnect the power plug from the wall
outlet and contact your Konica service representative.
❏If the copier is damaged in any way, disconnect the power plug and
contact your Konica service representative.
❏Do not connect, disconnect or touch the power plug while your
hands are wet; and do not allow an infant’s mouth to come in
contact with the power cord.
❏Do not disconnect the power cord from the copier while the plug is
connected to the wall outlet.
❏Do not throw the toner cartridge developing unit, or drum unit into a
fire, as the contents may blaze and cause burns.

Safety Information (continued)
■ Cautions - T
❏When closing the left side of the upper unit, press down evenly on
both corners of the left side and close the unit slowly to avoid injury
to your fingers or damage to the copier.
❏Avoid exposing the copier to humidity or dust.
❏When using the copier in a small room for extended periods of time,
use care to provide adequate ventilation.
❏Never tug the power cord as a means to disconnect the plug, and
always disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before
moving the copier; otherwise, the cord may become damaged.
Never use the copier when the cord is damaged.
❏Do not cover the copier vent openings; otherwise, heat will become
trapped inside the copier.
❏Avoid placing any heavy object on the copier that may interfere with
normal copier use or be likely to topple or fall.
❏When power is turned ON, the fixing unit becomes extremely hot.
When replacing the drum unit or performing other maintenance
tasks, do not touch any high temperature area.
❏When transporting the copier, grasp and lift the copier only in the
areas designated for lifting; otherwise, the main unit may fall or
break and cause an accident.

Chapter 1 Installation, transportation, handling
Safety Information (continued)
■ Locating the Equipment
❏Place equipment horizontally on a stable surface that does not
shake or vibrate in any way.
❏Keep this equipment away from direct sunlight; otherwise plastic
parts may become deformed or discolored.
❏To avoid risk of fire or electric shock, keep this equipment away from
water. If water inadvertently enters the equipment, immediately
unplug the AC power cord and contact your Konica service representative for assistance.
❏Maintain a temperature range of 10~30°C (50~86°F) and a humidity
range of 30~80% RH in the room where the equipment is placed.
High temperature or high humidity can adversely affect paper and
cause deterioration in print quality.
❏Choose a location with a minimum amount of dust; otherwise, dust
entering the equipment may degrade image quality or cause severe
equipment malfunctions and physical damage.
❏Keep other electrical appliances (television, radio, etc.) away from
the equipment, as electromagnetic noise can cause a deterioration
in performance.
❏Do not remove any screws (unless otherwise instructed) or open the
equipment case itself.
❏Be sure the socket outlet is installed near the equipment and is
easily accessible. To prevent electrical shock or fire, be sure the
power cable remains free from any crimping.

Chapter 1 Installation, transportation, handling
Safety Information (continued)
■ Handling the Copier & Supplies
❏When a heater is used in a cool room to generate heat quickly,
condensation may form inside the copier housing and cause paper
jams or other operation problems. In this case, turn on the equipment and wait before using the copier until the temperature inside
the housing increases sufficiently to evaporate the moisture.
❏Keep the equipment case and control panel clean by wiping away
soil marks with a soft cloth dampened with a mild synthetic detergent. Never use any volatile chemical cleaners, which can cause
discoloration or deformation of plastic parts.
❏Exposing the photosensitive drum in the drum unit to direct sunlight
will cause deterioration in print quality. Do not place the photosensitive drum outside the main unit for a period longer than 5 minutes
and never touch the drum surface.
Photosensitive
drum
❏Do not touch the developing roller in the developing unit; otherwise
your hands may become soiled. Soil on your hands may be transferred to the paper and cause deterioration in print quality.
Developing roller
❏Do not place the drum or developing unit in an upright position or
turn it upside down; otherwise the photosensitive drum surface may
be scratched or the toner may spill.

Chapter 1 Installation, transportation, handling
Safety Information (continued)
■ Transporting the Copier
❏When transporting the copier for relocation, first remove compo-
nents from the copier listed below, then pack the main body and all
components using the packing materials and boxes supplied at the
time of purchase; or use similar containers, if original packing
materials are not available.
Wrap up the developing and drum unit in aluminium packing
materials before placing them in packing boxes.
- Developing unit
- Drum unit
- Power cord
- Paper exit tray
❏The main body should be lifted and carried by two persons. One
person should support the bottom front area and the other person
should support both sides of the rear area.
❏Do not dispose of the copier yourself. Contact your Konica service
representative.
