Operator Safety:

This machine is considered a CDRH class I laser device, safe for office/ EDPuse. The machine con­tains 5-milliwat, 760 - 800 nanometer wavelength, GaAIAs laser diodes. 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 subs ystem is rep laceable in the field by a quali fied Cust omer Enginee r.The laser
chassis is not repairable in the field. Customer engineers are therefore directed to return all chassis
and laser subsystems to the fac tory or se rvice d epot when replace ment or the op tical subsyste m is re­quired.

Caution:

Use of controls or adjustment or performance of procedures other than those specified in this manual
might result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Important

Parts of this manual are subject to change without prior notice. In no event will the company be liable
for direct, indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages as a result of handling or operating
the machine.

Do not attempt any mainte nance or troub leshooti ng other th an that ment ioned in this manual. Th is ma­chine contains a laser beam generator and direct exposure to laser beams can cause permanent eye
damage.

Two kinds of size notation are employed in this manual. With this machine refer to the inch version.
Ricoh shall not be resp onsib le for any damag e or exp ense that m ight res ult fr om the u se of part s other

interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equip­ment does cause harmfu l interference to radio or television reception, whic h can be determined by turn­ing the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one more of
the follo wing measure s :

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the recei ver is

connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Warning

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void
the user's authority to operate the equipment.

Caution (in case of 100BaseTX environment):

1. Properly shielded and grou nded cables (STP) and connec tors must be us ed for conne ctions to host

Setting Up the Printer

Where to Put the Printer

Your printer's location should be carefully chosen because environmental

A

conditions can greatly affect its performance.

WARNING:

•

Confirm that the wall outlet is near the machine and freely accessi­ble, so that in the event of an emergency, it can be easily un­plugged.

•

Only connect the machine to the power source described on this
sheet.

•

Avoid multi-wiri ng.

•

Do not damage, break or make any modifications to the power
cord. Do not place heavy objects on it, pull it hard or bend it more
than necessary. These actions could damage the cord. A frayed or
damaged cord might cause an electrical and fire hazard.

CAUTION:

Do not handle the plug with wet hands. Doing this might cause an elec-

•

trical shock.
Keep the machine in an area that is within optimum environmental con-

•

ditions. Operating the machine in an environment that is outside the rec­ommended ranges of humidity and temperature can cause an electrical
or fire hazard. Keep the area around the socket free of dust. Accumulat­ed dust can become an electrical or fire hazard.

Place the machine on a strong and level surface. Otherwise, the ma-

•

chine might fall and injure someone.
If you use the machine in a confined space, confirm there is a continuous

•

air turnover.

Installing Options

CAUTION:

Before installing options, the machine should be turned off and unplugged

•

for at least thirty minutes. Components inside the machine become very
hot, and can cause a burn injury if touched.

Before moving the machine, unplug the power cord from the outlet. If the

•

cord is unplugged abruptly, it could become damaged. Damaged plugs or
cords can cause an electrical or fire hazard.

When lifting the machine, use the grips on both sides. The machine could

•

break or cause an injury if dropped.

You can increase the functionality of the printer by adding options. See
"Options" in the "Printer Reference" to confirm what kind of options are avail­able.

If you intend to install options, options should be installed in the order described
below.
