Operator Safety
This machine is considered a CDRH class I laser device, safe for office/EDP use. The machine con­tains a 5-milliwatt, 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.
Laser Safety:
The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) prohibits the repair of laser-based optical unit in the field. 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 or 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 inch version.
For good copy quality, the supplier recommends that you use genuine toner from the supplier.
The supplier shall not be responsible for any damage or expense that might result from the use of parts other than genuine parts from the supplier with your office products.

ENERGY STAR Program

As an ENERGY STAR Partner, we have determined that this machine model meets the ENERGY STAR Guidelines for energy efficiency.
The ENERGY STAR Guidelines intend to establish an international energy-saving system for developing and introducing energy-efficient office equipment to deal with environmental is­sues, such as global warming.
When a product meets the ENERGY STAR Guidelines for energy efficiency, the Partner shall place the ENERGY STAR logo onto the machine model.
This product was designed to reduce the environmental impact associated with office equip­ment by means of energy-saving features, such as Low-power mode.
•Low Power mode This product automatically lowers its power consumption 15 minutes after the last copy or print job has finished. Fax reception and printing is still pos­sible in Low Power mode, but if you wish to make copies press the operation switch first. For details about how to change the default interval that the machine waits before entering Low Power mode, see “4. Energy Saver Timer” on p.14 “Sys­tem Settings”.
• Sleep mode (Fax or printer installed) If the fax or printer features are installed, this product automatically lowers its power consumption even further 30 minutes after the last copy or print job has finished. Fax reception and printing is still possible in Sleep mode, but if you wish to make copies press the operation switch first. For details about how to change the default interval that the machine waits before entering Sleep mode, see “6. Auto Off Timer” on p.14 “System Set­tings”
• Auto Off mode (Copier only) To conserve energy, this product automatically turns off 30 minutes after the last copying or printing job has completed.
