Energy Star Program

We have determined as a participating company in the International Energy Star
Program that this product is compliant with the standards laid out in the International
Energy Star Program.

The International Energy Star Program has as its basic goals the promotion of
efficient energy use and the reduction of the env iro nm e nt al po llut i on tha t
accompanies energy consumption by pr omoting the manufacture and sale of
products that fulfill program standards.

International Energy Star Program standards require that multifunction devices
come equipped with a Low Power Mode where printer and fax functio ns remain in a
waiting state but energy consumption is still reduced after a certain amount of time
elapses since the device was last used, as well as a Sleep Mode where printer and
fax functions remain in a waiting state but power consumption is still reduced to a
minimum when there is no activity with the device within a set amount of time. This
product is equipped with the following features as a result of its compliance with
International Energy Star Program standards.

Low Power Mode

The device automatically enters low power mode when 5 minutes have passed since
the device was last used. The amount of time of no activity that must pass before
Low Power Mode is activated may be lengthened. For further information refer to

Low Power Mode on page 4-8.

Auto Sleep

The device automatically enters Sleep Mode when 30 minutes have passed since
the device was last used. The amount of time of no activity that must pass before
Sleep Mode is activated may be lengthened. For further information refer to Auto

Sleep on page 4-8.

Environment

CAUTION:

Avoid placing the machine on or in locations which are unstable or not
level. Such locations may cause the machine to fall down or fall over. This
type of situation presents a danger of personal injury or damage to the
machine.

Avoid locations with humidity or dust and dirt. If dust or dirt become
attached to the power plug, clean the plug to avoid the danger of fire or
electrical shock.

Avoid locations near radiators, heaters, or other heat sources, or locations
near flammable items, to avoid the danger of fire.

Legal and Safety

To keep the machine cool and facilitate changing of parts and
maintenance, allow access space as shown below. Leave adequate
space, especially around the vents, to allow air to be properly ventilated
out of the machine.

OPERATION GUIDE xi

Legal and Safety

During copying, some ozone is released, but the amount does not cause any ill effect
to one's health. If, however, the machine is used over a long period of time in a poorly
ventilated room or when making an extremely large number of copies, the smell may
become unpleasant. To maintain the appropriate environment for copy work, it is
suggested that the room be properly ventilated.

Power Supply/Grounding the Machine

WARNING:

Do not use a power supply with a voltage other than that specified. Avoid
multiple connections in the same outlet. These types of situations present
a danger of fire or electrical shock.

Plug the power cord securely into the outlet. If metallic objects come in
contact with the prongs on the plug, it may cause a fire or electric shock.

Always connect the machine to an outlet with a ground connection to avoid
the danger of fire or electrical shock in case of an electric short. If an e arth
connection is not possible, contact your service representative.

Other Precautions

Connect the power plug to the closest outlet possible to the machine.
The power supply cord is used as the main disconnect device. Ensure that the

socket/outlet is located/installed near the equipment and is easily accessible.

Handling of Plastic Bags

WARNING:

Keep the plastic bags that are used with the machine away from children.
The plastic may cling to their nose and mouth causing suffocation.

Precautions for Use

Cautions when Using the Machine

WARNING:

Do not place metallic objects or containers with water (flower vases, flower
pots, cups, etc.) on or near the machine. This situation presents a danger
of fire or electrical shock should they fall inside.

Do not remove any of the covers f rom the machine as there is a d anger of
electrical shock from high voltage parts inside the machine.

Do not damage, break or attempt to repair the power cord. Do not place
heavy objects on the cord, pull it, bend it unnecessarily or cause any other
type of damage.
These types of situations present a dange r of fire or ele ct rica l sho ck.

Legal and Safety

Never attempt to repair or disassemble the m achine or its parts as ther e is
a danger of fire, electrical shock or damag e to the laser. If the laser beam
escapes, there is a danger of it causing blindness.

If the machine becomes excessively hot, smoke appears from the
machine, there is an odd smell, or any other abnormal situation occurs,
there is a danger of fire or electrical shock. Turn the power switch off (O)
immediately, be absolutely certain to remove the power plug from the
outlet and then contact your service representative.

If anything harmful (paper clips, water, other fluids, etc.) falls into the
machine, turn the power switch off (O) immediately. Next, be absolutely
certain to remove the power plug from the outlet to avoid the danger of fire
or electrical shock. Then contact your service representative.

Do not remove or connect the power plug with wet hands, as there is a
danger of electrical shock.

Always contact your service representative for maintenance or repair of
internal parts.

OPERATION GUIDE xiii

Legal and Safety

CAUTION

Do not pull the power cord when removing it from the outlet. If the power cord is
pulled, the wires may become broken and there is a danger of fire or electrical shock.
(Always grasp the power plug when removing the power cord from the outlet.)

Always remove the power plug from the ou tlet when moving the machine.
If the power cord is damaged, there is a danger of fire or electrical shock.

If the machine will not be used for a short period of time (overnight, etc.),
turn the power switch off (O). If it will not be used for an extended period of
time (vacations, etc.), remove the power plug from the outlet for safety
purposes during the time the machine is not in use.

Always hold the designated parts when lifting or moving the machine.

For safety purposes, always remove the power plug from the outlet when
performing cleaning operations.

If dust accumulates within the machine, there is a danger of fire or other
trouble. It is therefore recommended that you consult with your service
representative in regard to cleaning of internal parts. This is particularly
effective if accomplished prior to seasons of high humidity. Consult with
your service representative in regard to the cost of cleaning the internal
parts of the machine.

Other Precautions

Do not place heavy objects on the machine or cause other damage to the machine.
Do not open the upper front cover, turn off the power switch, or pull out the power

plug during copying.
When lifting or moving the machine, contact your service representative.
Do not touch electrical parts, such as connectors or printed circuit boards. They

could be damaged by static electricity.
Do not attempt to perform any operations not explained in this handbook.

Safety of Laser Beam (USA)

1. Safety of laser beam

This copier has been certified by the manufacturer to Class 1 level under the
radiation performance standards established by the U.S.DHHS (Department of
Health and Human Services) in 1968. This indicates that the product is safe to use
during normal operation and maintenance. The laser optical system, enclosed in a

A laser-product-related act was implemented on Aug. 2, 1976, by the Center for
Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA). This act prohibits the sale of laser products in the U.S. without certification,
and applies to laser products manufactured after Aug. 1, 1976. The label shown
below indicates compliance with the CDRH regulations and must be attached to
laser products marketed in the United States. On this copier, the label is on the rear.

3. Optical unit

When checking the optical unit, avoid direct exposure to the laser beam, which is
invisible.

Shown at left is the label located on the cover of the optical unit.
