1.3 Safety Information

Laser Safety

This is a digital machine which operates using a laser. There is no possibility of danger from the laser provided the machine is operated according to the instructions in this manual.

Since radiation emitted by the laser is completely confined within protective housing, the laser beam cannot escape from the machine during any phase of user operation.

This machine is certified as a Class 1 laser product: This means the machine does not produce hazardous laser radiation.

Internal Laser Radiation

Maximum Average Radiation Power:26.4 µW at the laser aperture of the print head unit.

Wavelength:770-795 nm This product employ s a Clas s 3b las er dio de th at em its an inv isibl e las er

beam. The laser diode and the scanning polygon mirror are incorporated in the

print head unit. The print head unit is NOT A FIELD SERVICE ITEM: Therefore, the print head unit should not be opened under any

circumstances.

Ozone Release

NOTE

= Locate the Machine in a Well Ventilated Room = A negligible amount of ozone is generated during normal operation of this machine. An unpleasant odor may, however, be created in poorly ventilated rooms during extensive machine operations. For a comfortable, healthy, and safe operating environment, it is recommended that the room well ventilated.

REMARQUE

= Placer l’appareil dans une pièce largement ventilée = Une quantité d'ozone négligable est dégagée pendant le fonctionnement de l’appareil quand celui-ci est utilisé normalement. Cependant, une odeur désagréable peut être ressentie dans les pièces dont l'aération est insuffisan te et lorsq ue une utilisati on prolongée de l’apparei l est effectuée. Pour avoir la certitude de travailler dans un environnement réunissant des conditions de confort, santé et de sécurité, il est préférable de bien aérer la pièce ou se trouve l’appareil.
