Operation Guide
Please read the Operation Guide before using the copier.
Keep it in the designated location for easy reference.
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.
About the International Energy Star Program
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 copies
come equipped with a “Low Power Mode” where energy consumption
is reduced after a certain amount of time elapses since the device
was last used, as well as an “Off Mode” where the device
automatically turns itself off after there is no activity within a set
amount of time. When the copier includes printer and fax functions,
the printer and fax must enter a “Low Power Mode” where power
consumption is automatically reduced after a certain amount of time
elapses since they were last used, and they must also support a
“Sleep Mode” where power consumption is reduced to a minimum
when there is no activity 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 15 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. See “Energy Saver Function” for more information.
● Off Mode
The device automatically enters “Off Mode” when 90 minutes have
passed since the device was last used. The amount of time of no
activity that must pass before “Off Mode” is activated may be
lengthened. For more information see “Auto Shutoff Function”.

permission of the copyright owner.
• It is prohibited under any circumstances to copy domestic
or foreign currencies.
• Copying other items may be prohibited.
NOTICE
This Operation Guide contains information that corresponds
to using both the inch and metric versions of this machine.
Since the messages and terminology on those respective
operation panels differs between these two versions, for
purposes of clarification and easier understanding we have
listed the message displays and operation panels used in
BOTH types of machine. However, in the main text of this
guide, when the difference in a name or message is only
one of upper- and lowercase spelling, we have listed the
information as it specifically pertains to the inch version of
this machine. When there is even a slight difference in the
message, key/indicator name or other specifications, we
have listed the information for the inch version followed, in
brackets, by the corresponding information for the metric
version.
● Sleep Mode (If the copier has printer and/or facsimile function)
The device automatically enters “Sleep Mode” when 90 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 more information see “Auto Shutoff Function”.
● Paper Recycling
The Energy Star Program encourages the use of environmentally
friendly recycled paper. Your sales or service representative can
provide information about recommended paper types.

the copier.
• 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.
WARNING
• Always use the caster stoppers to stabilize the copier
once it is in place to keep it from moving and/or falling
over and causing injury...............................................
Other precautions
• Adverse environmental conditions may affect the safe
operation and performance of the copier. Install in an
air-conditioned room (recommended room temperature:
around 68°F[20°C], humidity: around 65%RH) and avoid
the following locations when selecting a site for the
copier.
. Avoid locations near a window or with exposure to
direct sunlight.
. Avoid locations with vibrations.
. Avoid locations with drastic temperature fluctuations.
. Avoid locations with direct exposure to hot or cold air.
. Avoid poorly ventilated locations.
■ Handling of plastic bags
WARNING
• Keep the plastic bags that are used with the copier away
from children. The plastic may cling to their nose and
mouth causing suffocation..........................................
• If the floor is delicate against casters, when this product
is moved after installation, the floor material may be
damaged.
• During copying, some ozone is released, but the amount
does not cause any ill effect to one's health. If, however,
the copier 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.
