1.4 Safety information
Laser safety
This printer is certified as a Class 1 laser product under the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services (DHHS) Radiation Performance Standard according
to Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968. This means that the printer
does not produce hazardous laser radiation. Since radiation emitted inside the
printer is completely confined within protective housings and external covers, the
laser beam cannot escape from the printer during any phase of user operation.
Laser notice
The printer is certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS 21 CFR
Subchapter for Class I (1) laser products, and elsewhere is certified as a Class I
laser product conforming to the requirements of IEC 825.
Class I laser products are not considered to be hazardous. The printer contains
internally a Class IIIb (3b) laser that is nominally a 5 milliwatt laser operating in
the wavelength region of 670 nanometers. The laser system and printer are
designed so there is never any human access to laser radiation above a Class I level
during normal operation, user maintenance, or prescribed service condition.
Safety information
Laser product labels are located on top of the laser scanner:

PRODUCT INFORMATION
Safety information
Figure 1.2 Laser notice label
Warning Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other
than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
CDRH regulations
The Center of Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration implemented regulations for laser products on August 2, 1976.
These regulations apply to laser products manufactured after August 1, 1976.
Compliance is mandatory for products marketed in the United States. A label indicating compliance with the CDRH regulations must be attached to laser products
marketed in the United States.
Ozone concentration
Laser printers generate ozone gas (O3) which may concentrate in the place of
installation and cause an unpleasant smell. To minimize the concentration of ozone
gas, we recommend that the laser printer not be installed in a confined area lacking ventilation.

Environmental requirements
Environmental conditions
Environmental conditions described in Table 1. 1 on page 3 should be observed to
ensure the optimum operation of the printer. The use of the printer in a location
which does not satisfy the requirements may result in troubles and risk shortening
its service life.
The printer will work best if it is installed in a location that is:
Level and well supported (Place the printer on a sturdy table or desk.)
•
Not exposed to sunlight or other bright light (not next to an uncurtained win-
•
dow). Do not place the printer on an unstable cart, stand, or table.
Near an AC wall outlet, preferably one that can be used for the printer alone
•
(See Table 1. 1 on page 3). (The outlet should have a ground slot, or an adaptor
should be used. If you use an extension cord, the total length of the power cord
plus extension cord should be 17 feet or 5 meters or less.
PRODUCT INFORMATION
Installation
Well ventilated, not too hot or cold, and not too damp or dry. If you install the
•
printer where the temperature or humidity is outside the requirements in
Table 1. 1 on page 3 in chapter 1, the best print quality may not be expected
and there will be an increased chance of paper jams.
Provide a sufficient clearances around the printer to ensure ventilation and
•
ease of access. See below.

1.6 About the toner
PRODUCT INFORMATION
About the toner
The printer should use Kyocera
Toner Kit. To ensure the high print quality
TK-20
and long service life, the following handling precautions should apply.
Caution As the Ecosys printers are designed to ensure the optimum print qual-
ity when used with the Kyoceraís proprietary toner, Kyocera do not
recommend to use any refilled toner containers that may be available
commercially. This is because Kyocera have no means for control over
how such refilled toner could affect the print quality and the reliability of the printer.
Toner container handling
To loosen and mix the toner inside, with the label side down, thoroughly shake the
toner container (in the direction of the arrow) ten times or more.
Warning Do not attempt to disassemble or refill the toner container.
