Features of this Printer
❖❖❖❖ High Image Quality
True 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution provides high resolution. You can print various business documents in fine detail from presentations and newsletters
containing illustrations or graphics to catalogues, ads, and pictures. In addition, the built-in automatic color registration function assures high image
quality at all times.
❖❖❖❖ High Performance
By using an intermediate transfer belt with the single path method, we have
achieved short paper path architecture equivalent to the single drum method.
These printers are as compact as a monochrome printer, but offer high performance output of 16 pages per minute (ppm)/21 ppm in black and white, 16
ppm/17 ppm in full color (printing speeds vary depending on model-check
which model you have). The printer performs duplex printing at the same
speed as simplex printing with the Interleave function installed. Also, by using induction-heating technology in the fusing unit, a short warm-up time after turning the printer on has been achieved and also the recovery time from
the Energy Saver mode has been reduced for fast printout when you want to
print immediately. The printer also comes with our advanced-technology
high-speed controller that allows fast printing and time saving on the total
printing time for large-volume data.
❖❖❖❖ Ease of Use
With a compact body like our other A4 16/21 ppm monochrome printer
(printing speeds vary depending on model), it takes up minimum space. Also, the optional duplex unit is installed on the front cover so you don't need
extra space or cover opening space. Replacing consumables is easy so you
don't need to spend time on maintenance.
By using induction-heating technology in the fusing unit, we've reduced the
time to reach the fusing temperature. And, the printer can reduce power consumption to the lowest level possible when idle.
Many different interface options such as a USB 2.0 interface or wireless LAN
can be installed in the printer according to your requirements.

Cautions to Take When Cleaning
WARNING:
• Do not remove any covers or screws other than those specified in this
manual. Some parts of the machine are at a high voltage and could
give you an electric shock. Also, if the machine has laser systems, direct (or indirect) reflected eye contact with the laser beam may cause
serious eye damage. When the machine needs to be checked, adjusted, or repaired, contact your service representative.
• Do not take apart or attempt any modifications to this machine. There
is a risk of fire, electric shock, explosion or loss of sight. If the machine
has laser systems, there is a risk of serious eye damage.
CAUTION:
• When removing misfed paper, do not touch the fusing unit because it could
be very hot.
Clean the printer periodically to maintain fine printing.
Dry wipe the exterior with a soft cloth. If dry wiping is not enough, wipe with a
soft, wet cloth that is wrung out well. If you still cannot remove the stain or
grime, use a neutral detergent, and then wipe over with a well-wrung wet cloth,
dry wipe, and let it dry.
Important
❒ To avoid deformation, discoloration, or cracking, do not use volatile chemi-
cals, such as benzine and thinner, or spray insecticide on the printer.
❒ If there is dust or grime inside the printer, wipe with a clean, dry cloth.
