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.
In accordance with IEC 60417, this machine uses the following symbols for the main power switch:
aaaa means P OWER ON. cccc means STAND BY.
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.
Power Source
120V, 60Hz, 7A or more
Please be sure to connect the power cord to a power source as above. For details about power source, see P.59 “Power Connection”.
