connections (such as Ethernet and telephone system connections) are properly installed in their marked
plug-in ports.
Safety information6
CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: To avoid the risk of electrical shock, if you are accessing the controller
board or installing optional hardware or memory devices sometime after setting up the printer, then turn
the printer o, and unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet before continuing. If you have any
other devices attached to the printer, then turn them o as well, and unplug any cables going into the
printer.
CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: To avoid the risk of electrical shock when cleaning the exterior of the
printer, unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet and disconnect all cables from the printer before
proceeding.
CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: The printer weight is greater than 18 kg (40 lb) and requires two or
more trained personnel to lift it safely.
CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: When moving the printer, follow these guidelines to avoid personal
injury or printer damage:
• Make sure that all doors and trays are closed.
• Turn o the printer, and then unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.
• Disconnect all cords and cables from the printer.
• If the printer has a caster base, then carefully roll it to the new location. Use caution when passing over
thresholds and breaks in flooring.
• If the printer does not have a caster base but is configured with optional trays, then lift the printer o the
trays. Do not try to lift the printer and the trays at the same time.
• Always use the handholds on the printer to lift it.
• Any cart used to move the printer must have a surface able to support the full footprint of the printer.
• Any cart used to move the hardware options must have a surface able to support the dimensions of the
options.
• Keep the printer in an upright position.
• Avoid severe jarring movements.
• Make sure that your fingers are not under the printer when you set it down.
• Make sure that there is adequate clearance around the printer.
CAUTION—TIPPING HAZARD: Installing one or more options on your printer or MFP may require a
caster base, furniture, or other feature to prevent instability causing possible injury. For more information
on supported configurations, see
CAUTION—TIPPING HAZARD: To reduce the risk of equipment instability, load each tray separately.
Keep all other trays closed until needed.
CAUTION—HOT SURFACE: The inside of the printer might be hot. To reduce the risk of injury from a hot
component, allow the surface to cool before touching it.
CAUTION—PINCH HAZARD: To avoid the risk of a pinch injury, use caution in areas marked with this
label. Pinch injuries may occur around moving parts, such as gears, doors, trays, and covers.
CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: This product uses a laser. Use of controls or adjustments or
performance of procedures other than those specified in the User’s Guide may result in hazardous
radiation exposure.
CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: The lithium battery in this product is not intended to be replaced.
There is a danger of explosion if a lithium battery is incorrectly replaced. Do not recharge, disassemble,
or incinerate a lithium battery. Discard used lithium batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions
and local regulations.
This equipment is not suitable for use in locations where children are likely to be present.

Refer service or repairs, other than those described in the user documentation, to a service representative.
This product uses a printing process that heats the print media, and the heat may cause the media to release
emissions. You must understand the section in your operating instructions that discusses the guidelines for
selecting print media to avoid the possibility of harmful emissions.
This product may produce small amounts of ozone during normal operation, and may be equipped with a filter
designed to limit ozone concentrations to levels well below the recommended exposure limits. To avoid high
ozone concentration levels during extensive usage, install this product in a well-ventilated area and replace
the ozone and exhaust filters if instructed to do so in the product maintenance instructions. If there are no
references to filters in the product maintenance instructions, then there are no filters requiring replacement for
this product.

Erasing printer memory
To erase volatile memory or buered data in your printer, turn o the printer.
To e r as e n o n‑volatile memory or individual settings, device and network settings, security settings, and
embedded solutions, do the following:
1 From the home screen, touch Settings > Device > Maintenance > Out of Service Erase.
2 Select the Sanitize all information on nonvolatile memory check box, and then touch ERASE.
3 Follow the instructions on the display.
Erasing printer hard disk memory
1 From the home screen, touch Settings > Device > Maintenance > Out of Service Erase.
2 Select the Sanitize all information on hard disk check box, and then touch ERASE.
3 Follow the instructions on the display.
Note: This process can take from several minutes to more than an hour, making the printer unavailable
for other tasks.
Securing the printer27
Configuring printer hard disk encryption
1 From the home screen, touch Settings > Security > Disk Encryption > Start Encryption.
Note: Enabling disk encryption erases the contents of the hard disk. If necessary, back up important data
from the printer before starting the encryption.
2 Follow the instructions on the display.
Notes:
• Do not turn o the printer during the encryption process. Loss of data can occur.
• Disk encryption can take from several minutes to more than an hour, making the printer unavailable
for other tasks.
• After encryption, the printer returns to the home screen.
Restoring factory default settings
From the home screen, touch Settings > Device > Restore Factory Defaults > Restore Settings > Restore all
settings > RESTORE > Start.
For more information, see
“Erasing printer memory” on page 26.
Statement of Volatility
Your printer contains various types of memory that can store device and network settings, and user data.
Type of memoryDescription
Volatile memoryYour printer uses standard random access memory
(RAM) to temporarily buer user data during simple print
jobs.
Non-volatile memoryYour printer may use two forms of non-volatile memory:
EEPROM and NAND (flash memory). Both types are used
to store the operating system, device settings, network
information and bookmark settings, and embedded
solutions.
Hard disk memorySome printers have a hard disk drive installed. The printer
hard disk is designed for printer-specific functionality.
This lets the printer retain buered user data from
complex print jobs, as well as form data, and font data.
Erase the content of any installed printer memory in the following circumstances:
• The printer is being decommissioned.
• The printer hard disk is being replaced.
• The printer is being moved to a dierent department or location.
• The printer is being serviced by someone from outside your organization.
• The printer is being removed from your premises for service.
• The printer is being sold to another organization.
Securing the printer28
Disposing of a printer hard disk
Note: Some printer models may not have a printer hard disk installed.
In high‑security environments, it may be necessary to take additional steps to make sure that confidential data
stored in the printer hard disk cannot be accessed when the printer—or its hard disk—is removed from your
premises.
• Degaussing—Flushes the hard disk with a magnetic field that erases stored data
• Crushing—Physically compresses the hard disk to break component parts and render them unreadable
• Milling—Physically shreds the hard disk into small metal bits
Note: Most data can be erased electronically, but the only way to guarantee that all data are completely
erased is to physically destroy each hard disk where data is stored.
Maintaining the printer29
Maintaining the printer
Warning—Potential Damage: Failure to maintain optimum printer performance periodically, or to replace
parts and supplies, may cause damage to your printer.
Networking
