Operating Instructions

TRSH010E

Read this manual carefully before you use this product and keep it handy for future reference. For safety, please follow the instructions in this manual.

Introduction

This manual contains detailed instructions on the operation and maintenance of this machine. To get maximum versatility from this machine all operators should carefully read and follow the instructions in this manual. Please keep this manual in a handy place near the machine.

Please read the Safety Information before using this machine. It contains important information related to USER SAFETY and PREVENTING EQUIPMENT PROBLEMS.

Notes:

Some illustrations may be slightly different from your machine. Certain options may not be available in some countries. For details, please contact your local

dealer.

Operator Safety:

This machine is considered a CDRH class 1 laser device, safe for office/EDP use. The machine contains a 15-milliwat, 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 perfomance of procedures other than those specified in this manual might result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Notes:

Two kinds of size notation are employed in this manual. With this machine refer to the inch version.

For good copy quality, Ricoh recommends that you use genuine Ricoh toner. Ricoh shall not be responsible for any damage or expense that might result from the use of parts

other than genuine Ricoh parts in your Ricoh office product.

Power Source

120V, 60Hz, 20A or more Please be sure to connect the power cord to a power source as above. For details about power

source, ☛ see page 138.
