Important Safety Notices

Prevention of Physical Injury

1. Before disassembling or assembling parts of the copier and peripherals, make sure that the copier power cord is unplugged.
2. The wall outlet should be near the copier and easily accessible.
3. If any adjustment or operation check has to be made with exterior covers off or open while the main switch is turned on, keep hands away from electrified or mechanically driven components.
4. The copier drives some of its components when it completes the warm-up period. Be careful to keep hands away from the mechanical and electrical components as the copier starts operation.
5. The inside and the metal parts of the fusing unit become extremely hot while the copier is operating. Be careful to avoid touching those components with your bare hands.

Health Safety Conditions

1. Toner and developer are non-toxic, but if you get either of them in your eyes by accident, it may cause temporary eye discomfort. Immediately wash eyes with plenty of water. If unsuccessful, get medical attention.
2. This machine, which uses a high voltage power source, can generate ozone gas. High ozone density is harmful to human health. Therefore, the machine must be installed in a well-ventilated room.

Observance of Electrical Safety Standards

This machine and its peripherals must be serviced by a customer service representative who has completed the training course on those models.
• Keep the machine away from flammable liquids, gases, and aerosols. A fire or an explosion might occur.

Safety and Ecological Notes for Disposal

1. Do not incinerate toner bottles or used toner. Toner dust may ignite suddenly when exposed to an open flame.

Page 3
2. Dispose of used toner, the maintenance unit which includes developer or the organic photoconductor in accordance with local regulations. (These are non-toxic supplies.)
3. Dispose of replaced parts in accordance with local regulations.

Laser Safety

The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) prohibits the repair of laser-based optical units 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 of the optical subsystem is required.
• Use of controls, or adjustment, or performance of procedures other than those specified in this manual may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
• WARNING: Turn off the main switch before attempting any of the procedures in the Laser Optics Housing Unit section. Laser beams can seriously damage your eyes.
• CAUTION MARKING:

General Cautions

Do not turn off the main switch while any of the electrical components are active. Doing so may result in damage to units (such as the PCU) as they are pulled out or replaced.

PCU (Photoconductor Unit)

The PCU consists of the OPC drum, charge roller, development unit, and cleaning components. Observe the following precautions when handling the PCU.
1. Never touch the drum surface with bare hands. If the drum surface is dirty or if you have accidentally touched it, wipe it with a dry cloth, or clean it with wet cotton and then wipe it dry with a cloth.
2. Never use alcohol to clean the drum. Alcohol will dissolve the drum surface.
3. Store the PCU in a cool dry place.
4. Do not expose the drum to corrosive gases (ammonia, etc.).
5. Do not shake a used PCU, as this may cause toner and developer to spill out.
6. Dispose of used PCU components in accordance with local regulations.
• You must run SP 3016-1 to initialize the TD sensor after you install a new PCU. After starting initialization, be sure to wait for it to reach completion (wait for the motor to stop) before you re-open the front cover or turn off the main switch.

Transfer Roller

1. Never touch the surface of the transfer roller with bare hands.
2. Be careful not to scratch the transfer roller, as the surface is easily damaged.

Scanner Unit

1. Use alcohol or glass cleaner to clean the exposure and scanning glass. This will reduce the static charge on the glass.
2. Use a blower brush or a water-moistened cotton pad to clean the mirrors and lenses.
3. Make sure to not bend or crease the exposure lamp’s ribbon cable.
4. Do not disassemble the lens unit. This will cause the lens and copy image to get out of focus.
67
Page 69
3. Replacement and Adjustment
3
5. Do not turn any of the CCD positioning screws. This will put the CCD out of position.

Laser Unit

1. Do not loosen or adjust the screws securing the LD drive board on the LD unit. This will put the LD unit out of adjustment.
2. Do not adjust the variable resistors on the LD unit. These are adjusted at the factory.
3. The polygonal mirror and F-theta lens are very sensitive to dust.
4. Do not touch the toner shield glass or the surface of the polygonal mirror with bare hands.

Fusing Unit

1. After installing the fusing thermistor, make sure that it is in contact with the hot roller and that the roller can rotate freely.
2. Be careful to avoid damage to the hot roller stripper pawls and their tension springs.
3. Do not touch the fusing lamp and rollers with bare hands.
4. Make sure that the fusing lamp is positioned correctly and that it does not touch the inner surface of the hot roller.

Paper Feed

1. Do not touch the surface of the paper feed rollers.
2. To avoid misfeeds, the side and end fences in each paper tray must be positioned correctly so as to align with the actual paper size.
3. The paper trays have interchangeability as following.
Standard Option
1st tray 2nd tray 3rd tray 4th tray

Sensor positions vary according to regions as shown above.
Sensor Positions for China Model (8K/16K)
This procedure is for China models only. You must rearrange the positions of the original width and length sensors for the copier to detect the following original sizes:
• 8K SEF (270 x 390 mm)
• 16K SEF (195 x 270 mm)
• 16K LEF (270 x 195 mm)
After you have rearranged the positions, the sensors work as listed in the table. Rearrange the sensor positions as follows:
Original Size Length Sensors Width Sensors
8K-SEF L1 L2 W1 W2
16K-SEF X X X O

Adjusting Scanner Positions

• Grasp the front and rear ends (not the middle) of the first scanner when you manually move it. The first scanner may be damaged if you press, push, or pull its middle part.
Overview
Adjust the scanner positions when the first scanner [C] and second scanner [B] are not parallel with the side frames [A], or, when you have replaced one or more of the scanner belts.
To adjust the scanner positions, do either of the following:
• To adjust the belt contact points on the first scanner (* "Adjusting the First Scanner Contact Points" below.)
• To adjust the belt contact points on the scanner bracket (* "Adjusting the Second Scanner Contact Points" below.)

1. Start the SP mode.
2. Select SP 5902 1 and output the "Trimming Area"pattern (pattern 10).
3. Make sure that the four corners of the pattern make right angles:
• If they make right angles, you do not need to adjust the laser unit alignment.
• If they do not make right angles, go on to the next step.
4. Check the screw position on the lever [B].
• If the screw is in the hole [C], go on to the next step.
• If the screw is in the slot [D], loosen the screw on the lever, loosen the four screws on the laser unit, and go on to step 9.
• The initial position of the screw is in hole [C].
5. Four screws in the laser unit (* "Laser Unit")
6. Remove the lever ( x 1), confirm the position of the hole beneath the slot [D], and reinstall the lever.
