FCC Regulations

Warning:

it is not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, interference with
radio communications may result. This equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class A computing device, pursuant to Subpart B, Part 15, of FCC
rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against interference from such
equipment when it is operating in a commercial environment.

Users operating this equipment in a residential area are likely to cause interference, in
which case they may be required to correct the interference at their own expense.

The Konica Force 85 generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy. If

Canadian Department of Communications Regulations

Le présent appareil n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites
applicables aux de Classe A prescrites dans le règlement sur la brouillage radioélectrique
édicté par Le Ministère des Communications du Canada.

This equipment does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions as set out in
the radio interference regulations of the Canadian ICES-003.

FDA Regulations

This Printer is certified as a “Class 1” laser product under the U.S. Department of Health
and Human Service (DHHS) Radiation Performance Standard according to the Radiation
Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968. Since radiation emitted inside this printer is
completely confined within protective housings and external covers, the laser beam cannot
escape during any phase of normal user operation.

Safety Information

Machine Installation and Power Requirements

CAUTION:

FAILURE TO HEED THE FOLLOWING CAUTIONS MAY RESULT IN BODILY INJURY AND/OR
MACHINE DAMAGE.

❒

FIRE PREVENTION

Install machine away from flammable or volatile materials. Routinely check for abnormal
heat from power cord and/or plug.

❒

SHORT CIRCUIT FROM WATER DAMAGE

Do not install or operate this equipment outdoors near a lake, pond, or river, etc.; and do
not allow the machine to come in contact with splashes of rain, water, or any liquid.

❒

TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY

Install the machine away from direct sunlight, heat sources
(stoves, heaters) and cold temperatures (air conditioners).

with 10~80% humidity.

❒

VENTILATION

Do not allow the machine to come in contact with dust or
ammonia gas, or fumes from printing or cleaning solutions,
etc.; otherwise, image quality will be poor. Install the machine
in a well-ventilated area, for comfort; otherwise, an ozone odor
will be detected during large print runs. When in use, the
printer generates ozone in amounts too small to be hazardous
to the human body.

Temperature

Konica Force 85 Overview

The Force 85 Network Printing System provides high quality printing suitable for any IBM­compatible or Macintosh environment. The printer's main body engine works in
conjunction with the new open architecture (NOA) of the print controller to provide a
flexible and modular way of customizing the language interpreter, the I/O and
communication, and the system control. NOA supports a modular based object oriented
system software that enables you to use special software modules developed for
enhancing printing capabilities and/or for adjusting the IP system to meet special
requirements.

The built-in electronic recirculating document handler (ERDH) provides dual access
capability, enabling the printer to receive a job while another job is printing or rasterizing.
This timesaving system allows you to work with optimal efficiency even when the printer is
working at peak capacity.

The advanced finishing system of the Force 85 provides you with the option of sending
print jobs to the output tray face down and in correct order.

The Force 85 printer is perfect for any work environment.

• use it as a non-network printer by connecting it to your PC with standard serial or
parallel port cabling.

• install the optional network interface card and use it as a standard network printer
supporting NetWare, AppleTalk (EtherTalk) or TCP/IP.

• install the Force 85 as a high-end network printer in an AS 400/IBM Host
Environment.

Highlights of the Force 85 include:

• 85 ppm

• 600 dpi

• duplex mode

•3 standard paper trays plus a Multi-sheet bypass tray

• LCT, Finisher and Punching/Z-Folding Unit
