Using the Machine Properly

To ensure the optimum performance of the machine, follow the precautions listed below.

‹Never place a heavy object on the machine.

‹Never subject the machine to shocks.

‹Never open any doors or turn the machine off while the machine is making prints.

‹Never bring any magnetized object near the machine.

‹Never use flammable sprays, liquids or gases near the machine.

‹Never modify the machine, as a fire or electrical shock could result.

‹Never remove any panel or cover which is secured. The machine contains high voltage components which can cause electrical shock.

‹Never tamper with the laser mechanism in laser-equipped models, as blindness or other injury may result.

‹Never drop paper clips, staples or other small pieces of metal through the vents or other openings in the machine, as a fire or electrical shock can result.

‹Never place containers of liquid on the machine. If liquids get inside the machine, they can cause fire or electrical shock. If a piece of metal or any liquid gets inside the machine, immediately turn the machine off, unplug the power cord and call your Minolta authorized dealer. A fire or electrical shock can result if the machine remains plugged in or is operated after metal or liquid gets inside.

‹Never leave the machine running if it becomes unusually hot, or if smoke or an unusual odor or noise is detected. Should any of these conditions occur, immediately turn the machine off, unplug the power cord and call your Minolta authorized diealer. A fire or electrical shock can result if the machine remains plugged in under any of these conditions.

‹Always insert the power plug all the way into the outlet.

‹Always make sure that the outlet is visible, clear of the machine or machine cabinet.

‹Always provide good ventilation when making a large number of continuous prints.

‹Never pull on the power cord, and always hold the plug when unplugging the power cord. A damaged cord could result in a fire or cause an electrical shock.

‹Never unplug the power cord with a wet hand, as it could cause an electrical shock.

‹Always unplug the power cord before moving the machine. Moving the machine with the power cord plugged in can damage the cord resulting in a fire or causing an electrical shock.

‹Always unplug the power cord when the machine is not going to be used for a long time.

ii

‹Never place a heavy object on the power cord, or pull or bend it, as a fire or electrical shock can result.

‹Always ensure that the machine does not sit on or move onto the power cord or communications cable of other electrical equipment, as malfunctioning equipment or a fire could result.

‹Always ensure that the power cord or communications cable of other electrical equipment does not become wedged into the machine mechanism, as malfunctioning equipment or a fire could result.

‹Always use the correct power voltage, as improper voltage can cause a fire or electrical shock.

‹Never use a multiple outlet adapter, as a fire or electrical shock can result.

‹Should the power cord become damaged, immediately turn the machine off, unplug the power cord and call your Minolta authorized dealer. A damaged cord can result in a fire or cause an electric shock.

‹If an extension cord is needed, use one with a greater rated capacity than the maximum power requirements of the machine. The use of an extension cord that falls short of supporting the maximum power requirements can result in overheating or a fire.

‹Always unplug the machine whenever anything unusual is observed during operation. Make sure that the outlet is nearby and clear of the machine and furniture.

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 be well ventilated.

Remarque:= Placer le líappareil dans une pièce largement ventilée=

Une quantité díozone négligeble est dégagée pendant le fonctionnement du líappaeil quand celui-ci est utilisé normalement. Cependant, une odeur désagréable peut être ressentie dans les pièces dont líaération est insuffisante et lorsquíune utilisation prolongée du líappareil 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 le líappareil.

Precautions for Installation & Operation Chapter 1

1-1

Installation

Installation Environment

Install the Scanner in a location which meets the following requirements to ensure safe operation and utmost performance.

‹A place where the illumination onto the book table is less than 1000 lx (e.g. 4.5 m x 6.5 m area with ceiling height of 8.5ft (2.6 m), and 12 or less 40 W fluorescent lamps).

‹A place the room lighting or the light from a window does not directly strike the scanner unit or reflect from the steel mirror.

‹A place away from curtains or other objects that catch fire and burn easily.

‹A place where there is no possibility of being splashed with water or other liquid.

‹An area free from direct sunlight.

‹A place not in the direct air stream from an air conditioner, heater, and/or ventilator, ensuring fairly constant temperature.

‹A well-ventilated place.

‹A dry place.

‹A dust-free location.

‹An area not subject to undue vibration.

‹A stable and level surface.

Power Source

The power source voltage requirements are as follows.

‹ Use a power source with little voltage/frequency fluctuations.

Voltage fluctuation:	120 VAC	±10%
Frequency fluctuation:	60 Hz	±3 Hz

‹When a 15A or less power source is to be used, connect the Scanner and printer to separate outlets. When a 20A or more power source is to be used, these two machines can be connected to the same outlet.

‹If any other electrical equipment uses the same power outlet, make sure that the capacity of the outlet is not exceeded.

‹The outlet should be located near the Scanner and easily accessible so that the power cord can be disconnected whenever necessary.

‹NEVER use a multiple adapter to connect other equipment or machines to the outlet used by the Scanner.

‹If an extension cord is required, use one with a capacity higher than the power consumption of the Scanner.

‹Make sure that no unusual, excessive force is applied to the power cord or extension cord.

Grounding

Connect the Scanner’s ground wire to any of the following to prevent electrical shocks due to electrical leakage.

‹Ground terminal of the outlet.

‹Ground contact that complies with local electrical standards.

Never connect the ground cable to a gas pipe, ground wire for a telephone line, or a water pipe.

Features

This system is designed for making quality copies of books and other bound originals. The Scanner reads the images of an open book placed on the Book Table and the Printer copies them. The Scanner is designed to scan books set face up on the book table. This makes placement of the book very easy and reduces concerns that the book may be creased or damaged. In addition, warped text lines and text compression are corrected, ensuring clearer images. Various options such as a foot switch, etc. are also provided.

System Configuration

The system is configured as follows:
