Safety Precautions

Laser Safety
Laser radiation is harmful to the human body. Since the laser components are completely sealed within the printer, laser radiation will not leak. To avoid laser radiation, please do not disassemble the printer at discretion!
The device is certied as a Class IIIB laser product. Since radiation emitted inside the device is completely conned within protective housings and external covers, the laser beam cannot escape during any phase of normal operation. Do not open the laser unit under any circumstances to avoid exposure to the laser beam.
The following label is attached to the laser components inside the printer.
Safety Warning
Please note the following safety warnings before using the printer:
Warning
There is a high-voltage current inside the printer. Before cleaning the printer, make sure the power is turned off!
Plugging and unplugging the power cord plug with a wet hand may result in an electric shock.
The fuser unit is hot during and after printing. Touching the fuser unit (the shaded area as shown) may cause burns!
The fuser unit bears a high temperature warning label. Please do not remove or damage this label.
