IMPORT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONSIMPORTANT MESURES DE
when using your telephone equipment, basic
safety precauti ons should alway s be followed to
reduced the risk of fire, electric shoc k and
injury to persons, including the following:
1. Do not use this product near water,
for example, near a bath tub, wash
bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in
a wet basement or near a swimming
pool.
2. Avoide using a telephone ( other

LASER SAFETY
This FAX contains a page printer which operates by means of a laser. There is no
possibility of danger from the laser, provided the FAX is operated according to the
instructions in this manual provided.
Since radiation emitted by the laser is completely confined within protective housing, the
laser beam cannot escape from the machine during any phase of user operation.
This machine is certifie d as a Class 1 l aser product . this means the machine does not
produce hazardous laser radiation.
INTERNAL LASER RADIATION (for all Uers)
Maximum Radiation power:7.3x10 (W) at the laser aperture of the print head unit.

Precautions for Routine Use
Do not store toner units, PC drum units, and other supplies and consumables in a place subject to direct
sunlight and high temperature and humidity, as poor image quality and malfunction could result.
Do not attempt to replace the toner unit and PC drum unit in a place exposed to direct sunlight. If the PC
drum is exposed to intense light, poor image quality could result.
Do not unpack a toner unit or PC drum unit until the very time of use. Do not leave an unpacked unit
standing. Install it immediately or poor image quality could result.
Do not keep toner units and PC drum units in an upright position or upside down, as poor image quality
could result.
Do not throw or drop a toner unit or PC drum unit as poor image quality could result.
Do not use this product in an area where ammonia or other gases or chemicals are present. Failure to do so
may shorten the service life of the product, cause damage or decrease performance.
Do not use this product in an environment with a temperature outside the range specified in the operator’s
manual, as a breakdown or malfunction could result.
Do not attempt to feed stapled paper, carbon paper or aluminum foil through this product, as a malfunction
or fire could result.
Do not touch or scratch the surface of the toner unit, developing roller and the PC drum, as poor image
quality could result.
lUse the supplies and consumables recommended by the dealer. Use of any supply or consumable not
recommended could result in poor image quality and breakdown.
xxii
Miscellaneous
Do not rest your weight on the control panel, as a malfunction could result.
Normal international communications may at times not be possible depending on line conditions.
If tap or well water is used in a humidifier, impurities in the water are discharged into the air and may be
deposited inside the printer, resulting in poor image quality. It is recommended that pure water that does
not contain any impurities be used in the humidifier.
The cooling fan may be activated automatically, but this suggests no problems.
Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride) Batteries are installed inside machine as back up memory batteries. Please
dispose according to local, state and federal regulations.
