Legal Restriction On Copying
Energy Star Program
Legal and Safety Information
• It may be prohibited to copy copyrighted material without permission of
the copyright owner.
• It is prohibited under any circumstances to copy domestic or foreign
currencies.
• Copying other items may be prohibited.
We have determined as a participating company in the International
Energy Star Program that this product is compliant with the standar ds 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 environmental
pollution that accompanies energy consumption by promoting the
manufacture and sale of products that fulfill program standards.
International Energy Star Program standards require that multifunction
devices come equipped with Low Power Mode and Auto Sleep Mode. After
a specified period of time since the last operation the machine remains in
a waiting state but enters Lower Power Mode or Auto Sleep Mode and
reduces power consumption. This product is equipped with the following
features as a result of its compliance with International Energy Star
Program standards:
Low Power Mode
Auto Sleep Mode
Duplex Mode
The device automatically enters Low Power Mode after 15 minutes of
machine inactivity. The period of time the machine is idle before entering
Low Power Mode can be lengthened. For further information refer to Low
Power Mode, on page 3-18.
The device enters Auto Sleep Mode after 30 minutes (16 and 20 ppm
models) or 45 minutes (25 ppm model) of machine inactivity. The period
of time the machine is idle before entering Auto Sleep Mode can be
lengthened. For further information refer to Auto Sleep Mode, on page 3-
19.
The Energy Star Program encourages the use of two-sided copying which
reduces the load on the environment. Your Sales or Service
Representative can provide information about adding two-sided copying
capabilities to this device. For further information refer to Duplex Unit, on
page 4-8.

Installation Precautions
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.
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 a ir to be
properly ventilated out of the machine.

Legal and Safety Information
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 unple a san t. To ma in tain
the appropriate environment for cop y wor k, it is sugg e ste d th at the room

WARNING:
than that specified. Avoid multiple connections in the same
outlet. These types of situations present a danger of fire or
electrical shock.
WARNING: 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.
WARNING: 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 earth connection is not po ssible,
contact your Service Representative.
Other Precautions

may result in a paper jam.
IMPORTANT: Ensure paper is
not stapled and clips are
removed.
Load the paper with the side which faced the top of the packaging face-up
if using a Cassette and face-down if using the Multi-Bypass Tray.
Leaving paper out of its package under high temperature and hig h humidity
conditions may lead to problems caused by ambient moisture. After
loading paper into a Cassette or Multi-Bypass Tray, seal the remaining
paper in its original package. If the machine is not being used for a
prolonged period of time, remove all paper from the Cassette(s) and Multi-
Bypass Tray and reseal it in its original packaging.
Loading Paper into a Cassette
Standard paper (60 to 90 g/m²), thick paper (90 to 105 g/m²), recycled

additional 64 MB or 128 MB is
effective when copying from
originals with photos, due to their
normally low compression ratio.
Memory Available:
• For copier: 16 MB, 32 MB, 64 MB, 128 MB
