Safety information

Connect the power supply cord to a properly grounded electrical outlet that is near the product and easily accessible.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: Do not 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 the power cord is misused, a risk of fire or electrical shock results. Inspect the power cord regularly for signs of misuse. Remove the power cord from the electrical outlet before inspecting it.

Do not place or use this product near water or wet locations.

Use only the power cord provided with this product or the manufacturer's authorized replacement.

Refer service or repairs, other than those described in the user documentation, to a professional service person.

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: Do not use the fax feature during a lightning storm. Do not set up this product or make any electrical or cabling connections, such as the power supply cord or telephone, during a lightning storm.

This product is designed, tested, and approved to meet strict global safety standards with the use of specific manufacturer's components. The safety features of some parts may not always be obvious. The manufacturer is not responsible for the use of other replacement parts.

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: Make sure that all external connections (such as Ethernet and telephone system connections) are properly installed in their marked plug-in ports.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: This product uses a laser. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

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.

CAUTION—HOT SURFACE: The fuser and the inside of the printer near the fuser may be hot. Wait for the fuser to cool before clearing jams from this area.

Safety information

This product contains a lithium battery.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced with an incorrect type. Discard used batteries according to the battery manufacturer’s instructions and local regulations.

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: If you are installing memory or option cards sometime after setting up the printer, turn the printer off and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before continuing. If you have any other devices attached to the printer, turn them off as well and unplug any cables going to the printer.

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: If you are installing an optional tray after setting up the printer, then turn the printer off and unplug the power cord, the USB cable, and the Ethernet cable before continuing.

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: If you are installing an Internal Solutions Port (ISP) after setting up the printer, then turn the printer off and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before continuing.

CAUTION—SHOCKHAZARD:To avoid the risk of electric shock when cleaning the exterior of the printer, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and disconnect all cables from the printer before proceeding.

CAUTION—TIPPING HAZARD: Floor-mounted configurations require additional furniture for stability. You must use either a printer stand or printer base if you are using a high-capacity input tray, a duplex unit and an input option, or more than one input option. If you purchased a multifunction printer (MFP) that scans, copies, and faxes, you may need additional furniture. For more information, see www.lexmark.com/multifunctionprinters.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: The printer weight is greater than 18 kg (40 lb) and requires two or more trained personnel to lift it safely.
