1. Installation Precautions
WARNING
• Do not use a power supply with a voltage other than that specified.
Avoid multiple connections to one outlet: they may cause fire or electric
shock. When using an extension cable, always check that it is
adequate for the rated current. ...............................................................
• Connect the ground wire to a suitable grounding point. Not grounding
the printer may cause fire or electric shock. Connecting the earth wire
to an object not approved for the purpose may cause explosion or
electric shock. Never connect the ground cable to any of the following:
gas pipes, lightning rods, ground cables for telephone lines and water
pipes or faucets not approved by the proper authorities.........................
CAUTION:
• Do not place the printer on an infirm or angled surface: the printer may
tip over, causing injury. ...........................................................................
• Do not install the printer in a humid or dusty place. This may cause fire
or electric shock......................................................................................
• Do not install the printer near a radiator, heater, other heat source or
near flammable material. This may cause fire. .......................................
• Allow sufficient space around the printer to allow the ventilation grills to
keep the machine as cool as possible. Insufficient ventilation may
cause heat buildup and poor printing performance. ...............................
• Always handle the machine by the correct locations when moving it. ....
• Always use anti-toppling and locking devices on printers so equipped.
Failure to do this may cause the printer to move unexpectedly or
topple, leading to injury...........................................................................
• Avoid inhaling toner or developer excessively. Protect the eyes. If toner
or developer is accidentally ingested, drink a lot of water to dilute it in
the stomach and obtain medical attention immediately. If it gets into the
eyes, rinse immediately with copious amounts of water and obtain
medical attention.....................................................................................
• Advice customers that they must always follow the safety warnings and
precautions in the printer’s user's manual. .............................................
2. Precautions for Maintenance
WARNING
• Always remove the power plug from the wall outlet before starting
machine disassembly. ............................................................................
• Always follow the procedures for maintenance described in the service
manual and other related brochures.......................................................
• Under no circumstances attempt to bypass or disable safety features
including safety mechanisms and protective circuits. .............................
• Always use parts having the correct specifications. ...............................
• Always use the thermostat or thermal fuse specified in the service
manual or other related brochure when replacing them. Using a piece
of wire, for example, could lead to fire or other serious accident............
• When the service manual or other serious brochure specifies a
distance or gap for installation of a part, always use the correct scale
and measure carefully. ...........................................................................
• Always check that the printer is correctly connected to an outlet with a
ground connection. .................................................................................
• Check that the power cable covering is free of damage. Check that the
power plug is dust-free. If it is dirty, clean it to remove the risk of fire or
electric shock. .........................................................................................
• Never attempt to disassemble the scanner unit in machines using
lasers. Leaking laser light may damage eyesight. ..................................
• Handle the charger sections with care. They are charged to high
potentials and may cause electric shock if handled improperly..............
CAUTION
• Wear safe clothing. If wearing loose clothing or accessories such as
ties, make sure they are safely secured so they will not be caught in
rotating sections......................................................................................
• Use utmost caution when working on a powered machine. Keep away
from chains and belts..............................................................................
• Handle the fuser section with care to avoid burns as it can be
extremely hot..........................................................................................
• Check that the fuser unit thermistor, heat and press rollers are clean.
Dirt on them can cause abnormally high temperatures. .........................
• Do not remove the ozone filter, if any, from the printer except for
routine replacement. ...............................................................................
• Do not pull on the AC power cord or connector wires on high-voltage
components when removing them; always hold the plug itself...............
• Do not route the power cable where it may be stood on or trapped. If
necessary, protect it with a cable cover or other appropriate item. ........
• Treat the ends of the wire carefully when installing a new charger wire
to avoid electric leaks. ............................................................................
• Remove toner completely from electronic components..........................
• Run wire harnesses carefully so that wires will not be trapped or
damaged.................................................................................................
• After maintenance, always check that all the parts, screws, connectors
and wires that were removed, have been refitted correctly. Special
attention should be paid to any forgotten connector, trapped wire and
missing screws. ......................................................................................
• Check that all the caution labels that should be present on the machine
according to the user's manual are clean and not peeling. Replace with
new ones if necessary. ...........................................................................
• Handle greases and solvents with care by following the instructions
below: .....................................................................................................
· Use only a small amount of solvent at a time, being careful not to
spill. Wipe spills off completely.
· Ventilate the room well while using grease or solvents.
· Allow applied solvents to evaporate completely before refitting the
covers or turning the power switch on.
· Always wash hands afterwards.
• Never dispose of toner or toner containers in fire. Toner may cause
sparks when exposed directly to fire in a furnace, etc..........................
• Should smoke be seen coming from the printer, remove the power
plug from the wall outlet immediately. ..................................................
3. Miscellaneous
WARNING
• Never attempt to heat the drum or expose it to any organic solvents
such as alcohol, other than the specified refiner; it may generate toxic
gas. .........................................................................................................

Environmental requirements
Environmental conditions
The
Environmental requirements
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 alone. The outlet
should have a ground slot, or an adapter 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.
• Well ventilated, not too hot or cold, and not too damp or dry (See section Environmental
requirements on page Chapter 1-4). If you install the printer where the temperature or

Places to avoid
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.
• Excessive dust. Dust and smoke may cause contamination on the laser scanner window,
causing print quality problem.
• Vibration.
• Ammonia fumes or other harmful fumes. (In case of humigating the room or saturate 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.
Note on power
Use only the power source voltage conforming to the printer’s rated power voltage. 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
associated peripheral devices (computer, sorter, etc.) should be disconnected, unless
otherwise specified.
• To avoid possible electrical shock, extreme caution must be exercised in handling the
power cord and any other electrical part.
• An easily accessible socket outlet must be provided near the equipment.
