The FS-6900 printer provides support for a JEIDA/PCMCIA category of memory card in both
SRAM and flash types. The memory size of up to 32 MB is supported.
Following is a list of makes and models of flash cards recommended for use with the printers.
Note that the flash card to be used should be operative on +5 V DC.
This printer is certified as a Class 1 laser product under the U.S. Departme nt 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 dur ing any phase of
user operation.
/DVHU#QRWLFH
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 produ ct con form ing to
the requirements of IEC 825.
Class I laser products are not considered to be hazardous. Th e printer contains intern ally 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.

Laser product labels are located on top of the laser scanner:
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 complian ce with the CDRH regulations must
be attached to laser products marketed in the United States.

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 ventil ation.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 1 5 of th e FCC Rul es. These limits ar e designed t o provi de reasonabl e protecti on
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communication. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit d ifferen t fro m that to which the receiver is
•
connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
•
Change or modifications not expressly approved by th e manufacturer for compliance could void
the userís authority to operate the equipment.
Interference cable to the computer shall be used with shielded circular cable.
Any modification without prior permission may cause harmful interface. If any modification/
change is introduced to this equipment without prior permission, Kyocera, as the man ufactur er,
cannot guarantee compliance with FCC rules.
To use equipment which does not comply with FCC rules is prohibited . Conf orming to Class B
limits, the printer may be optionally in stalled with the following units:

Environmental conditions described in Table 1. 1 on page 1-3 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 window). 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 alon e (See Table 1. 1
•
on page 1-3). (The outlet shoul d have a g round s lot, or an adapto r shou ld be us ed. If yo u use
an extension cord, the total length of the power cord plus extension cord should be 17 feet
or 5 meters or less.

the temperature or humidity is outside the requirements in Table 1. 1 on page 1-3 in chapter
1, the best print quality may not be expected and there w ill be an increased chance of paper

Avoid installing the printer in locations exposed to:
Direct drafts of hot or cold air.
•
Direct drafts of outside air. (Avoid locations next to outside doors.)
•
Sudden temperature or humidity changes.
•
Any source of high heat, such as a radiator or stove.

Vibration.
•
Ammonia fumes or other harmful fu mes. (In case of humi gating t he room or satura te it with
•
insecticide, remove the printer first.)
Avoid greenhouse-like rooms. (Because of sunlight and humidity.)
•
Avoid enclosed spaces that block ventilation.
•
Avoid sites more than 6500 feet or 2000 meters above sea level.

Use only the power source voltage conforming to the printer’s rated power voltage (See
•
Table 1. 1 on page 1-3). Do not use other power sources.
Disconnect the printer from the power source before attempting removal or re-placement of
•
an electrical component or a printed-circuit board.
The printer should not be connected to a power source until the instruction is given to do so
•
when performing tests described in this manual.
In connecting the printer power, exercise an extreme care in handling the power supply or
•
any other electric parts which may give an electric shock.
Before performing maintenance or repair, power from both the power source and the asso-
•
ciated peripheral devices (computer, sorter, etc.) should be disconnected, unless otherwise
specified.
To avoid possible electrical shock, extreme caution must be exercised in handling the
