Introduction

WARNING

• Do not modify this product: Fire, electrical shock, or breakdown could result. If the product employs a laser, the laser beam source could cause blindness.

• Do not attempt to remove the covers and panels which have been fixed to the product. Some products have a high-voltage part or a laser beam source inside that could cause an electrical shock or blindness.

• Use only the power cord supplied in the package. Failure to use this cord could result in fire or electrical shock.

• Use only the specified power source voltage. Failure to do so could result in fire or electrical shock.

• Do not use a multiple outlet adapter to connect any other appliances or machines. Use of a power outlet for more than the marked current value could result in fire or electrical shock.

Do not unplug and plug in the power cord with a wet hand: An electrical shock could result.

Plug the power cord all the way into the power outlet. Failure to do so could result in fire or electrical shock.

• Do not scratch, abrade, place a heavy object on, heat, twist, bend, pull on, or damage the power cord. Use of a damaged power cord (exposed core wire, broken wire, etc.) could result in fire or breakdown. Should any of these conditions be found, immediately turn OFF the power switch, unplug the power cord from the power outlet, and then call your authorized service rep resentat ive.

• In principle, do not use an extension cord. Use of an extension cord could cause fire or electrical shock. Contact your authorized service representative if an extension cord is required.

Introduction

Laser Safety

This is a digital m achine whi ch operates usi ng a laser. Th ere is no pos sibility 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 Cla ss 1 la ser produc t: This means th e machi ne does not produ ce 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 employs a Class 3b laser diode that emits an invisible laser 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.

Introduction

Laser Aperture of the Print Head Unit

There is a laser aperture at th e location shown above, w hich must, however, NEV ER be viewed directly by the user.

CDRH Regulation

This machine is certified as a Class 1 Laser product under Radiation Performance Standard according to the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act of 1990. Compliance is mandatory for Laser products marketed in the United States and is reported to the Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). This means that the device does not produce hazardous laser radiation.

The label shown on page 1-9 indicates compliance with the CDRH regulations and must be attached to laser products marketed in the United States.

CAUTION

Use of controls, ad jus tments or performance of procedures othe r th an those specified i n this manual may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

This is a semiconductor laser. The maximum power of the laser diode is 5 mW and the wavelength is 770-795 nm.
