Important Precautions and Safety Information

When using this machine, these basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to people:

Read and understand all instructions.

Use common sense whenever operating electrical appliances.

Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the machine and in the literature accompanying the machine.

If an operating instruction appears to conflict with safety information, heed the safety information. You may have misunderstood the operating instruction. If you cannot resolve the conflict, contact your sales or service representative for assistance.

Unplug the machine from the AC wall socket before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use only a damp cloth for cleaning.

Do not place the machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. It may fall, causing serious damage.

Your machine should never be placed on, near or over a radiator, heater, air conditioner or ventilation duct.

Do not allow anything to rest on the power cable. Do not locate your machine where the cords will be abused by persons walking on them.

Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords. This can diminish performance, and may result in the risk of fire or electric shock.

Do not allow pets to chew on the AC power or PC interface cords.

Never push objects of any kind into the machine through case or cabinet openings. They may touch dangerous voltage points, creating a risk of fire or shock. Never spill liquid of any kind onto or into the machine.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the machine. Take it to a qualified service technician when repair work is required. Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect reassembly could cause electric shock when the unit is subsequently used.

Unplug the machine from the PC and AC wall outlet, and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

•When any part of the power cord, plug, or connecting cable is damaged or frayed.

•If liquid has been spilled into the machine.

•If the machine has been exposed to rain or water.

•If the machine does not operate properly after instructions have been followed.

•If the machine has been dropped, or the cabinet appears damaged.

•If the machine exhibits a sudden and distinct change in performance.

Adjust only those controls covered by the operating instructions. Improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage, and may require extensive work by a qualified service technician to restore the machine to normal operation.

Avoid using this machine during a lightning storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning. If possible, unplug the AC power for the duration of the lightning storm.

If you continuously print multiple pages, the surface of the output tray may become hot. Be careful not to touch the surface, and keep children away from the surface.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

Space

Selecting a Location

Select a level, stable place with adequate space for air circulation. Allow extra space for opening covers and tray. The area should be well-ventilated and away from direct sunlight or sources of heat, cold, and humidity. See the image below for clearance space. Do not place the printer close to the edge of your desk or table!

ETTING UP YOUR PRINTER

2.3

Installing the Toner Cartridge

Grasp the front cover and pull it toward you to open.

Note: Because the printer is very light, it may be moved when you use it; for example, when opening/closing the tray or installing/ removing the toner cartridge. Be careful not to move the printer.

Remove the toner cartridge from its bag and remove the paper covering the cartridge.

2.4

Gently shake the cartridge from side to side to distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge.

CAUTION:

• To prevent damage, do not expose the toner cartridge to light for more than a few minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper, if left exposed for more than a few minutes.

• If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.

ETTING UP YOUR PRINTER

Locate the cartridge slots inside the printer, one on each side.

Grasp the handle and insert the cartridge in the printer until it snaps into place.

Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely closed. If the cover is not firmly closed, printing errors may occur when you print.

Note: When printing text at 5% coverage, you can expect a toner cartridge life of approximately 3,000 pages (1,000 pages for the toner cartridge that is shipped with the printer).

ETTING UP YOUR PRINTER

2.5

Loading Paper

You can load approximately 250 sheets of paper in the tray.

Pull the tray out of the printer.

Note: Because the printer is very light, it may be moved when you use it; for example, when opening/closing the tray or installing/ removing the toner cartridge. Be careful not to move the printer.

Prepare a stack of paper for loading by flexing or fanning them back and forth. Straighten the edges on a level surface.

2.6

ETTING UP YOUR PRINTER

Load paper with the print side facing down.

Make sure that all four corners are flat in the tray.

Pay attention to the paper limit mark on the left inside wall of the tray. Paper overloading may cause paper jams.

Note: If you want to change the paper size in the tray, see “Changing the Paper Size in the Tray” on page 2.8.

Slide the tray back into the printer.

ETTING UP YOUR PRINTER

2.7

Changing the Paper Size in the Tray

Pinch the rear guide as shown below to adjust for the paper length.

Pinch the side guide as shown and slide it to the left flush against the paper.

2.8

Notes:

• Do not push the width guide far enough to cause the material to warp.

• If you do not adjust the width guide, it may cause paper jam.

ETTING UP YOUR PRINTER

Connecting a Printer Cable

To print from your computer, you need to connect your printer to your computer with a Universal Serial Bus (USB) cable.

Using a USB Cable

Note: Connecting the printer to the USB port of the computer

requires a certified USB cable. You will need to buy a USB 1.1 compliant cable that is within 3m in length.

Make sure that both the printer and the computer are turned off.

Plug the USB printer cable into the connector on the back of the printer.

To the USB port on your computer

Connect the other end of the cable to the USB port on your computer.

See your computer User’s Guide if you need help.

Note:

• For using a USB cable, you must be running Windows 98/Me/ 2000/XP.
