This printer is equipped with a laser unit. If the print er is used in accordance wit h the instruct ions in the User ’s Manual, t he laser presents no danger.

The radiation emitt ed is complet ely absorbed and attenuated by the case. The laser radi ation c annot esc ape at any t im e during the pri ntin g process .

This laser printer is categorized as a Class 1 print er. This classifica tion means that the printer does not produce any hazardous laser radiation.

This printer is certi fied as a Class I Laser product under the US Department of Health and Human Service s (DHHS) Radiation Performance Standard according to the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968. This means t hat the printer does not produce hazardous laser ra diation.

Internal laser radiation

Average radiation output:

1.03 mW at the laser aperture of the laser unit. Wavelength: 770-810 nm This device works with a laser diode of class 3b with invisib le l aser

radiation. The las er diode and the polygon mirror fo r sampling are integrated into t he laser unit.

The laser unit is NOT AN ITEM TO BE MAINTAINED ON SITE. You should therefore not open it under any circumstance.

CAUTION Dangerous laser radiation!

Using the printer in a manne r other than as indicated in this manual may result in exposure to dangerous radiation.

➜ Use the printe r only according to the instr uctions contained in the

User’s Manual.

Only use the power cable suppli ed with the printer! The laser printer req uires a power supply with minimal voltage and

frequency fluc tuation. If necessary, ask an electrician f or advice.

✔ Power supply: 120-127 V at 50-60 Hz / 220-240 V at 50-60 Hz ✔ Voltage fluctuation: 120 V -10%, 127 V +6% / 220-240 V ± 10% ✔ Frequency fluctuation: Within 3 Hz

Make sure that the printer’s power

switch is in the "0" (OFF) position.

Insert the plug on the end of the

power cable (supplied) into the power socket of the print er.

Insert the other end of the power

cable into a power socket.

CAUTION Using the wrong power cable may lead to a short-circuit situation!

The use of a power cable of inadequate cross-secti on can lead to a overheating of the cable.

➜ Only use an extensi on cable which has a hi gher rat ing than the c urrent

consumption of the printer.

➜ Only use cables wi th a ground connection. ➜ Always observe the relevant local regu lations regarding the

connection of electrical equipment to the mai ns network.

is receiving data fr om the computer (flashing “Stand-by“ lamp on the control panel) or the printer is being reset.

➜ Switch the power switc h to "I" (ON)

in order to activate the printer. The printer is ready for use after

approx. 23 seconds.

"0" (OFF) in order to deactivate the printer.

✎

Saving energy makes sense!

After the printer has not received a print com mand for a certain amount of time, it automatically switches to POWER SAVE mode. This time interval can be set usi ng the control panel (see the Onli ne m anual). If the printer receiv es a new pri nt j ob whil e it is in Power Save mode, or if the side cover is opened, or if the [ON LINE] key is pressed, the printer automatically starts its warm-up phase.
