Operator Safety:
This machine is considered a CDRH class I laser device, safe for office/EDP use. The machine con­tains a 15-milliwat, 760-800 nanometer wavelength, GaAIAs laser diode. Direct (or indirect reflected) eye contact with the laser beam might cause serious eye damage. Safety precautions and interlock mechanisms have been designed to prevent any possible laser beam exposure to the ope rat or.
Laser Safety:
The Center for Devices and Radi ologi cal Heal th (CDRH) pro hibit s the repai r of laser -bas ed optic al unit in the field. The opt ical housing unit can only be re paired in a factory or at a location with the requisite equipment. The laser s ubsy stem is repl acea ble i n the fiel d b y a qual ifi ed Cust omer Enginee r. The l aser chassis is not repairable in the field. Customer engineers are therefore directed to return all chassis and laser subsystems to the factory o r service depot when replacement or the optic al subsystem is re­quired.
Warning:
Use of controls or adjustment or performance of procedures other than those specified in this manual might result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Two kinds of size notati on are employed in this manual. With this machine refer to the inch version. For good copy quality, Ricoh recommends that you use genuine Ricoh toner. Ricoh shall not be responsible for any dam age or expens e that might re sult from the use of parts other
