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.
Notes:
The model names of the machines do not appear in the following pages. Check the type of your ma­chine before reading this manual. (For details, see P.iv “Machine Types”.)

Note
When you use the bypass tray, it is recommended to set the copy paper direc-
tion to L.
Postcards should be fed from the bypass tray.
If you load paper of the same size and in the same direction in two or more
trays, the machine automatically shifts to another tray when the tray in use runs out of paper. This function is called Auto Tray Switch. This saves inter­rupting a copy run to replenish paper even when you make a large number of copies. You can cancel this setting. See 10Auto Tray Switch of the System Settings manual.
