• To avoid hazardous electric shock, do not remove any covers or screws other than those specified in this manual.

• Turn off the power and disconnect the power plug (by pulling the plug, not the cable) if any of the following occurs:

• You spill something into the machine.

• You suspect that your machine needs service or repair.

• The external housing of your machine has been damaged.

• Keep the machine away from flammable liquids, gases, and aerosols.

A fire or an electric shock might occur.

• Connect the power cord directly into a wall outlet and never use an extension cord.

• Only connect the machine to the power source described in this manual.

• Disposal can take place at our authorized dealer or at appropriate col-

lection sites.

C2678608_Platinum-EN.book Page 7 Sunday, February 12, 2006 10:53 PM

R CAUTION:

• After you move the machine, use the caster fixture to fix it in place. Otherwise the machine might move or come down to cause an injury.

• If you use the machine in a confined space, make sure there is a continuous air turnover.

• Keep the machine away from humidity and dust. Otherwise a fire or an electric shock might occur.

• Protect the machine from dampness or wet weather, such as rain and snow.

• Do not place the machine on an unstable or tilted surface. If it topples over,

an injury might occur.

• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before you move the machine. While moving the machine, you should take care that the power cord will not be damaged under the machine.

• When you disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull the plug (not the cable).

• Do not allow paper clips, staples, or other small metallic objects to fall inside the machine.

• For environmental reasons, do not dispose of the machine or expended supply waste at household waste collection points. Disposal can take place at an authorized dealer.

• When disposing of a used ink container, reattach the cap to prevent ink from splattering.

• Be careful not to get ink on your clothes when replacing an ink container. Ink stains on clothes are hard to remove.

• Be careful not to cut yourself on any sharp edges when you reach inside the machine to remove misfed sheets of paper or masters.

• If ink comes into contact with your eyes, rinse immediately in running water. For other symptoms, consult a doctor.

• Keep the ink or ink container out of reach of children.

• If ink is ingested, induce vomiting by drinking a strong saline solution. Con-

sult a doctor immediately.

• If your skin comes into contact with ink, wash the affected area thoroughly with soap and water.

• While printing, do not touch the belt at the end of the paper delivery tray or the job separator. Otherwise, an injury might occur.

• Our products are engineered to meet the high standards of quality and functionality, and we recommend that you only use the expendable supplies available at an authorized dealer.

Before Using the Machine

• The following types of envelopes

Note

❒ Do not use inkjet paper. It does not absorb ink well, print will smudge if

rubbed, and the back of paper may be dirtied.

❒ If you print on rough grained paper, the print image might be blurred.

Important

❒ Correct curls in the paper before placing it in the machine. When you cannot

correct the paper curl, stack the paper with the curl face down or face up as shown in the illustration. If the paper is curled, it might wrap around the drum or stains might appear.

TPEY990E

Storing Paper

Note

❒ When storing paper, the following precautions should always be taken:

• Do not store paper where it will be exposed to direct sunlight.

• Avoid storing paper in humid (greater than 70%) areas.

• Store on a flat surface.

❒ Keep open reams of paper in the package and store as you would unopened
