Using the Copier Properly
To ensure the optimum performance of the copier, follow the precautions listed below.
Never place a heavy object on the copier.
Never subject the copier to shocks.
Never open any doors or turn the copier off while the copier is making copies.
Never bring any magnetized object near the copier.
Never modify the copier, as a fire or electrical shock could result.
Never remo ve any panel or cov er which is secured. The copier contains high v oltage components which can cause electrical shock.
Never tamper with the laser mechanism on laser-equipped models, as blindness or other injury may result.
Never drop paper clips, staples or other small pieces of metal through the vents or other openings in the copier, as a fire or electrical shock can result.
Never place containers of liquid on the copier. If liquids get inside the copier, they can cause fire or electrical shock. If a piece of metal or any liquid gets inside the copier, immediately turn the copier off, unplug the power cord and call your technical representative. A fire or electrical shock can result if the copier remains plugged in or is operated after metal or liquid gets inside.
Never leave the copier running if it becomes unusually hot, or if smoke or an unusual odor or noise is detected. Should any of these conditions occur, immediately turn the copier off, unplug the power cord and call your technical representative. A fire or electrical shock can result if the copier remains plugged in under any of these conditions.
Always insert the power plug all the way into the outlet.
Always make sure that the outlet is visible, clear of the copier or copier cabinet.
Always provide good ventil ation when making a large number of continuous copies.
Never pull on the po wer cord, and always hol d the plug when unplugging the po wer cord. A damaged cord could result in a fire or cause an electrical shock.
Never unplug the power cord with a wet hand, as it could cause an electrical shock.
Always unplug the power cord before moving the copier. Moving the copier with the power cord plugged in can damage the cord resulting in a fire or causing an electrical shock.
Always unplug the power cord when the copier is not going to be used for a long time.
Never place a heavy object on the power cord, or pull or bend it, as a fire or electrical shock can result.
Always ensure that the copier does not sit on or move onto the power cord or communications cable of other electrical equipment, as malfunctioning equipment or a fire could result.
Always ensure that the power cord or communications cable of other electrical equipment does not become wedged into the copier mechanism, as malfunctioning equipment or a fire could result.
Using the Copier Properly
Always use the correct power voltage, as improper voltage can cause a fire or electrical shock.
Never use a multiple outlet adapter, as a fire or electrical shock can result.
Should the power cord become damaged, immediately turn the copier off, unplug the power cord and call your technical representative. A damaged cord can result in a fire or cause an electric shock.
If an extension cord is needed, use one with a greater rated capacity than the maximum power requirements of the copier. The use of an extension cord that falls short of supporting the maximum power requirements can result in overheating or a fire.
Always unplug the copier whenever an ything unusu al is observed during operation. Make sure that the outlet is nearby and clear of the copier and furniture.
Note: =Locate the Copier in a Well Ventilated Room= A negligible amount of ozone is generated during normal operation of this copier. An unpleasant odor may, however, be created in poorly ventilated rooms during extensive copier operations. For a comfortable, healthy and safe operating environment, it is recommended that the room be well ventilated.
Remarque: =Placer le copieur dans une pièce largement ventilée= Une quantité d’ozone négligeble est dégagée pendant le fonctionnement du copieur quand celui-ci est utilisé normalement. Cependant, une odeur désagréable peut être ressentie dans les pièces dont l’aération est insuffisante et lorsqu’une utilisation prolongée du copieur est effectuée. Pour avoir la certitude de travailler dans un environnement réunissant des conditions de confort, santé et de sécurité, il est préférable de bien aérer la pièce ou se trouve le copieur.

Moving
If you need to transport the copier over a long distance, consult your Technical Representative.
Care of Copier Supplies
Use the following precautions when handling the copier supplies (toner, paper, etc.).
Store the paper, toner, and other supplies in a place free from direct sunlight and away from any
heating apparatus. Keep them in a dry, clean environment.

2. Precautions for Use
Storage of Copies
• If copies are to be kept for a long time, keep them in a place which is not exposed to light to prev ent f ad­ing.
• If an adhesive containing solvent (e.g., spray glue) is used to paste copies, the toner on the copies can melt.
• The color copies have a toner layer thicker than the normal black-and-white copies. When a color copy is folded, therefore, the toner at the fold can be separated.
NOTE

Getting to Know Your Copier Chapter 2
Initial Mode
When the Power Switch is turned ON, the Basic screen appears on the Touch Panel. The settings on this screen are called the initial mode. The Basic screen serves as the reference for all panel settings to be later made.

Useful Tip
The initial mode can be changed. For details, see Setting the Utility Mode. p. 5-1
Note on making multiple copies
If the fusing temperature drops excessively during a multi-copy cycle, there is a possibility that the copying speed will be reduced. The copying speed will automatically return to normal when the fusing temperature rises enough to ensure good fusing performance.

6. Auxiliary Funct i ons

Auxiliary Functions
Panel Resetting
The Panel Reset Key resets all control panel settings to default settings including the number of copies and zoom ratio. * If the Duplexing Document Feeder is used, the
original present on the Original Glass will be ejected out of the unit.

• To avoid miscopy, try to press this Key before making any se t ting for your own copy job.
• Pressing this Key does not cancel the Interrupt Mode.
2-10
Useful Tip
The time for the copier to enter the Energy Saver Mode can be selected from 1 to 240 min. by using User’s Choice. p. 5-15
Auto Copy Start Function
Even during the copier warm-up, the copier is set into the Auto Copy Start Function by loading the originals onto the Duplexing Document Feeder and pressing the Start Key. This Function allows a copy process to be started as soon as the copier completes warming up (which takes a pprox. 9 min.).
Interrupt Mode
Auto Panel Reset Function
The Auto Panel Reset Function is automatically activated to return the copier to the default settings 5 min. after the copier has been touched last.
Useful Tip
The time for the copier to enter the Auto Panel Reset Function can be selec ted from 1 to 9 min. by using User’s Choice. Also, the Auto Panel Reset function can be disabled by the User’s Choice. p. 5-15
Energy Saver Mode
If the copier is shut down when it is not in use, it takes the copier approx. 9 min. to complete the warm-up cycle. Instead of turn ing the copier OFF, it's a good idea to use the Energy Saver Mode. This mode will minimize the time for the copier to complete the warm-up cycle to about 60 sec.
• The Energy Saver Mode is automatically activated a given period of time after the copier has been touched last. The initial setting is 15 min.
• Pressing the Energy Saver Key sets the copier into the Energy Saver Mode.
• To cancel the Energy Sa ver Mode, press any ke y on the Control Panel, for instance, the Start Ke y.
The Interrupt Mode allows you to interrupt a current job and run a different one. Pressing the Interrupt Key once sets the copier into the Interrupt Mode. Pressing the Key again cancels the Interrupt Mode and returns to the previous settings.
NOTES
• Pressing the Interrupt Key resets all settings to the initial ones. For details, see “Default Settings.” p. 5-1
• Some functions set before the Interrupt Mode disable Interrupt copying. Further , when in the Interrupt Mode, the copier defies setting of some functions. For more details, see “Function Combination Matrix.” p. 8-9
• To cancel an Interrupt cycle, you need to press the Interrupt key. The Panel Reset key or Auto Panel Reset function does not serve this purpose.
