General information about color

Everybody has an idea of what hue an
object has, for example, an apple is red,
a lemon is yellow, and the sky is blue.
Hue is the tint by which the color of an
is classified as red, yellow, blue, etc.

Brightness is the degree of lightness in
which makes it a light color or a dark
color. For example, when comparing the
yellow of a lemon and the yellow of a
grapefruit, it is obvious that the yellow of
the lemon is brighter. But what about
when comparing the yellow of a lemon
and the red of a bean? Obviously, the
yellow of the lemon is brighter.
Brightness is the this degree of lightness
that enables comparison regardless of
the hue.

What makes the difference between the

By saying that the lemon is a more vivid

difference between the two colors is stated

yellow of a lemon and the yellos of a pear?

yellow and the pear is a duller yellow, the

in terms of saturation,as opposed to
brightness. As opposed to hue and
brightness, saturation is the characteristic
that indicates the degree of vividness.

x-30 d-Color MF25

Relationship between hue, brightness and saturation (color

model)

Hue, brightness and saturation are the elements that we call the “three at­tributes of color”. We can think of their affects using the solid object shown
in figure 1, where the outer edge is the hue, the vertical axis is the brightness,
and the horizontal axis from the center is the saturation.

Assigning colors to the solid object, representing the three attributes of color,
shown in figure 1 produces the color model shown in figure 2. Although the
level of saturation differs for each hue and degree of brightness, creating a
complex color model, we can get a better understanding of the conditions
under which the hue, brightness and saturation vary.

% Do not ignore this safety advices.

Warning Symbol

• Use only the power cord supplied in the package. If a power
cord is not supplied, only use the power cord and plug that
is specified in POWER CORD INSTRUCTION. Failure to use
this cord could result in a fire or electrical shock.

• Use the power cord supplied in the package only for this ma­chine and NEVER use it for any other product. Failure to ob­serve this precaution could result in a fire or electrical shock.

• Do not scratch, abrade, place a heavy object on, heat, twist,
bend, pull on, or damage the power cord. Use of a damaged
power cord (exposed core wire, broken wire, etc.) could re­sult in a fire or breakdown.
Should any of these conditions be found, immediately turn
OFF the power switch, unplug the power cord from the pow­er outlet, and then call your authorized service representa­tive.

Warning Symbol

• Use only the specified power source voltage. Failure to do
that could result in a fire or electrical shock.

• Connect power plug directly into wall outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. Use of an adapter leads to the
product connecting to inadequate power supply (voltage,
current capacity, grounding), and may result in fire or shock.
If proper wall outlet is not available, the customer shall ask
qualified electrician for the installation.

• Do not use a multiple outlet adapter nor an extension cord in
principle. Use of an adapter or an extension cord could cause
a fire or electrical shock.
Contact your authorized service representative if an exten­sion cord is required.

• Consult your authorized service representative before con­necting other equipment on the same wall outlet. Overload
could result in a fire.

1.3 Laser safety

This is a digital machine which operates using a laser. There is no possibility
of danger from the laser provided the machine is operated according to the
instructions in this manual.

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 certified as a Class 1 laser product: This means the machine
does not produce hazardous laser radiation.

Internal laser radiation

This product employs a Class 3B laser diode that emits an invisible laser
beam.

The laser diode and the scanning polygon mirror are incorporated in the print
head unit.

7 WARNING

Incorrect handling may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

% The print head unit is not a field-serviceable item.
% Therefore, the print head unit should not be opened under any circum-

stances.

CDRH Regulation

This machine is certified as a Class 1 Laser product under Radiation Per­formance Standard according to the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act of 1990.
Compliance is mandatory for Laser products marketed in the United States
and is reported to the Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration of the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services (DHHS). This means that the device does not produce haz­ardous laser radiation.

The label shown on page 1-18 indicates compliance with the CDRH regula­tions and must be attached to laser products marketed in the United States.

7 CAUTION

Incorrect handling may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

% Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than

those specified in this manual may result in hazardous radiation expo­sure.

1.6 Operation precautions

To ensure the optimum performance of this machine, observe the precau­tions described below.

Power source

The power source requirements are as follows.

- Voltage fluctuation: Maximum ±10% (at 220 to 240 V AC)

- Frequency fluctuation: Maximum ±3 Hz (at 50 Hz)

– Use a power source with as little voltage or frequency fluctuations as

possible.

Operating environment

The environmental requirements for correct operation of the machine are as
follows.

- Temperature: 10°C (50°F) to 30°C (86°F) with fluctuations of no more than

10°C (18°F) within an hour

- Humidity: 15% to 85% with fluctuations of no more than 20% within an

hour

Storage of copies

To store copies, follow the recommendation listed below.

- Copies that are to be kept for a long time should be kept where they are

not exposed to light in order to prevent them from fading.

- Adhesive that contains solvent (e.g., spray glue) may dissolve the toner

on copies.

- Color copies have a thicker layer of toner than normal black-and-white

copies. Therefore, when a color copy is folded, the toner at the fold may
peel off.
