Operator Safety:
This machine is considered a class I laser device, safe for office/ EDP use. The machine contains a 15milliwat, 760 - 800 nanometer wavelength, GaAIAs laser diode. Direct (or indirect reflected) eye contact
with the laser beam might cause serious eye damage. Safety precautions and interlock mechanisms
have been designed to prevent any possible laser beam exposure to the operator.
The following label is attached on the back side of the machine.
Laser Safety:
The optical housing unit can only be repaired in a factory or at a location with the requisite equipment.
The laser subsystem is replaceable in the field by a qualified Customer Engineer. The laser chassis is
not repairable in the field. Customer engineers are therefore directed to return all chassis and laser subsystems to the factory or service depot when replacement of the optical subsystem is required.
Warning:
Use of controls or adjustment or performance of procedures other than those specified in this manual
might result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Two kinds of size notation are employed in this manual. With this machine refer to the metric version.
For good copy quality, Ricoh recommends that you use genuine Ricoh toner.
Ricoh shall not be responsible for any damage or expense that might result from the use of parts other
than genuine Ricoh parts in your Ricoh office product.
Power Source:
220-240V, 50/60Hz, 8A
Please be sure to connect the power cord to a power source as above. For details about power source,
