CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: Do not use this product with extension cords, multioutlet power strips, multioutlet extenders, or UPS devices. The power capacity of these types of accessories can be easily overloaded by a laser printer and may result in a risk of ﬁre, property damage, or poor printer performance.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: Only a Lexmark Inline Surge Protector that is properly connected between the printer and the power cord provided with the printer may be used with this product. The use of non-Lexmark surge protection devices may result in a risk of ﬁre, property damage, or poor printer performance.

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: To avoid the risk of electrical shock, do not place or use this product near water or wet locations.

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: To avoid the risk of electrical shock, do not set up this product or make any electrical or cabling connections, such as the power cord, fax feature, or telephone, during a lightning storm.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: Do not cut, twist, bind, crush, or place heavy objects on the power cord. Do not subject the power cord to abrasion or stress. Do not pinch the power cord between objects such as furniture and walls. If any of these things happen, a risk of ﬁre or electrical shock results. Inspect the power cord regularly for signs of such problems. Remove the power cord from the electrical outlet before inspecting it.

Safety information 6

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: To avoid the risk of electrical shock, make sure that all external connections (such as Ethernet and telephone system connections) are properly installed in their marked plug-in ports.

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.

• 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—ROTATING FAN BLADES: To avoid the risk of laceration from moving fan blades, turn o the printer and unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet before accessing areas marked with this symbol.

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 32.

Statement of Volatility

Your printer contains various types of memory that can store device and network settings, and user data.

Type of memory Description

Volatile memory Your printer uses standard random access memory

(RAM) to temporarily buer user data during simple print jobs.

Non-volatile memory Your 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 memory Some printers have a hard disk drive installed. The printer

hard disk is designed for printer-speciﬁc functionality. This lets the printer retain buered 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 dierent 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 printer 34

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.

Changing port settings after installing an internal solutions port

Notes:

• If the printer has a static IP address, then do not change the conﬁguration.

• If the computers are conﬁgured to use the network name instead of an IP address, then do not change

the conﬁguration.

• If you are adding a wireless internal solutions port (ISP) to a printer previously conﬁgured for an Ethernet

connection, then disconnect the printer from the Ethernet network.

For Windows users

Open the printers folder.

2 From the shortcut menu of the printer with the new ISP, open the printer properties.

3 Conﬁgure the port from the list.

4 Update the IP address.

5 Apply the changes.

For Macintosh users

Cleaning 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.

Notes:

• Perform this task after every few months.

• Damage to the printer caused by improper handling is not covered by the printer warranty.

1 Turn o the printer, and then unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.

2 Remove paper from the standard bin and multipurpose feeder.

3 Remove any dust, lint, and pieces of paper around the printer using a soft brush or vacuum.

4 Wipe the outside of the printer with a damp, soft, lint‑free cloth.

Notes:

• Do not use household cleaners or detergents, as they may damage the ﬁnish of the printer.

• Make sure that all areas of the printer are dry after cleaning.

5 Connect the power cord to the electrical outlet, and then turn on the printer.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: To avoid the risk of ﬁre or electrical shock, connect the power cord

to an appropriately rated and properly grounded electrical outlet that is near the product and easily accessible.
