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:
1. Read and understand all instructions.
2. Use common sense whenever operating electrical appliances.
3. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the machine and in the
literature accompanying the machine.
4. 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.
5. Unplug the machine from the AC wall socket and/or telephone jack
before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use only a damp
cloth for cleaning.
6. Do not place the machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. It may fall,
causing serious damage.
7. Your machine should never be placed on, near or over a radiator, heater,
air conditioner or ventilation duct.
8. Do not allow anything to rest on the power. Do not locate your machine
where the cords will be abused by persons walking on them.
9. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords. This can diminish
performance, and may result in the risk of fire or electric shock.
15. 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.
16. 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 and telephone cord for the duration of the lightning storm.
17. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
18. Use only No.26 AWG or larger telephone line cord.
Laser Safety Statement
The printer is certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS
21 CFR, chapter 1 Subchapter J for Class I(1) laser products, and elsewhere
is certified as a Class I laser product conforming to the requirements of IEC
825.
Class I laser products are not considered to be hazardous. The laser system
and printer are designed so there is never any human access to laser
radiation above a Class I level during normal operation, user maintenance or
prescribed service condition.
WARNING
Never operate or service the printer with the protective cover removed from

damage your eyes.
10. Do not allow pets to chew on the AC power, telephone or PC interface
cords.
11. 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.
12. Your machine may have a heavy cover for optimal pressure on the
document for the best scanning and/or faxing (usually the flatbed-type
machine). In this case, replace the cover after placing document on the
scan glass, by holding and moving it down slowly until it seats on its
location.
13. 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.
14. Unplug the machine from the telephone jack, 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.

Fax Branding
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any
person to use a computer or other electronic device to send any message via
a telephone facsimile machine unless such message clearly contains in a
margin at the top or bottom of each transmitted page or on the first page of
the transmission the following information:
(1) the date and time of transmission
(2) identification of either business, business entity or individual sending the
message; and
(3) telephone number of either the sending machine, business, business
entity or individual.
The Telephone Company may make changes in its communications facilities,
equipment operations or procedures where such action is reasonably
required in the operation of its business and is not inconsistent with the rules
and regulations in FCC Part 68. If such changes can be reasonably expected
to render any customer terminal equipment incompatible with telephone
company communications facilities, or require modification or alteration of
such terminal equipment, or otherwise materially affect its use or
performance, the customer shall be given adequate notice in writing, to allow
the customer an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.
vi
Ringer Equivalence Number
The Ringer Equivalence Number and FCC Registration Number for this
machine may be found on the label located on the bottom or rear of the
machine. In some instances you may need to provide these numbers to the
telephone company.
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is a measure of the electrical load
placed on the telephone line, and is useful for determining whether you have
“overloaded” the line. Installing several types of equipment on the same
telephone line may result in problems making and receiving telephone calls,
especially ringing when your line is called. The sum of all Ringer Equivalence
Numbers of the equipment on your telephone line should be less than five in
order to assure proper service from the telephone company. In some cases,
a sum of five may not be usable on your line. If any of your telephone
equipment is not operating properly, you should immediately remove it from
your telephone line, as it may cause harm to the telephone network.
WARNING:
FCC Regulations state that changes or modifications to this equipment not
expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to
operate this equipment. In the event that terminal equipment causes harm
to the telephone network, the telephone company should notify the customer
that service may be stopped. However, where prior notice is impractical, the
company may temporarily cease service, providing that they:
a) promptly notify the customer.
b) give the customer an opportunity to correct the equipment problem.
c) inform the customer of the right to bring a complaint to the Federal
Communication Commission pursuant to procedures set out in FCC Rules and
Regulations Subpart E of Part 68.
You should also know that:
• Your machine is not designed to be connected to a digital PBX system.
• If you intend to use a computer modem or fax modem on the same phone
line as your machine, you may experience transmission and reception
problems with all the equipment. It is recommended that no other
equipment, except for a regular telephone, share the line with your
machine.
• If your area experiences a high incidence of lightning or power surges, we
recommend that you install surge protectors for both the power and the
telephone lines. Surge protectors can be purchased from your dealer or
telephone and electronic specialty stores.
• When programming emergency numbers and/or making test calls to
emergency numbers, use a non-emergency number to advise the
emergency service dispatcher of your intentions. The dispatcher will give
you further instructions on how to actually test the emergency number.
• This machine may not be used on coin service or party lines.
• This machine provides magnetic coupling to hearing aids.
• You may safely connect this equipment to the telephone network by
means of a standard modular jack, USOC RJ-11C.

I
MPORTANT
The mains lead for this machine is fitted with a standard (BS 1363) 13 amp
plug and has a 13 amp fuse. When you change or examine the fuse, you
must re-fit the correct 13 amp fuse. You then need to replace the fuse cover.
If you have lost the fuse cover, do not use the plug until you have another
fuse cover.
Please contact the people from you purchased the machine.
The 13 amp plug is the most widely used type in the UK and should be
suitable. However, some buildings (mainly old ones) do not have normal 13
amp plug sockets. You need to buy a suitable plug adaptor. Do not remove
the moulded plug.
vii
W
ARNING

Selecting Print Materials
This chapter introduces you to the basics of selecting print
materials and loading them into your machine.
This chapter includes:
• Selecting Print Materials
• Loading Paper
• Verifying an Output Location
You can print on a variety of print materials, such as plain
paper, envelopes, labels, and transparencies. Always use print
materials that meet the guidelines for use with this machine.
See “Paper Specifications” on page 10.3. To get the best
possible print quality, use only high-quality copier-grade paper.
When you choose print materials, consider the following:
• Size: You can use any size paper that fits easily within the
paper adjusters of the tray.
• Weight: 16 ~ 24 lb (60 to 90 g/m
multi-pages feeding, and 16 ~ 43 lb (60 to 165 g/m
bond) for the manual tray and tray with single page
feeding.
• Brightness: Some papers are whiter than others and
produce sharper, more vibrant images.
• Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the paper
affects how crisp the printing looks on the paper.

Guidelines for Paper and Special Materials
When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special
material, keep these guidelines in mind:
• Always use paper and other materials that conform with
the specifications listed under “Paper Specifications” on
page 10.3.
• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn
paper can cause paper jams and poor print quality.
• Use only high quality copier grade paper for the best print
quality.
• Avoid paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or a
texture that is too smooth or too rough. Paper jams may
occur.
• Store paper in its ream wrapper until you are ready to
use. Place cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor.
Do not place heavy objects on top of the paper, whether
it is packaged or unpackaged. Keep it away from
moisture, or other conditions that can cause it to wrinkle
or curl.
o
• Store unused materials at temperatures between 15
and 30
be between 10 % and 70 %.
• During storage, you should use a moisture-proof wrap,
such as a plastic container or bag, to prevent dust and
moisture from contaminating your paper.
• Load special paper types one sheet at a time through the
manual tray or the tray to avoid paper jams.
• Only use materials specifically recommended for use in
laser printers.
• To prevent special materials, such as transparencies and
label sheets from sticking together, remove them as they
print out.
•For envelopes:
• For transparencies:
o
C (59 oF to 86 oF). The relative humidity should
Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp and well
creased folds.
Do not use envelopes with clasps and snaps.
Do not use envelopes with windows, coated lining, self-
adhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.
Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes.
Only use envelopes recommended for laser printers.
Before loading envelopes in the tray, make sure that they
are undamaged and are not stuck together.
Do not feed stamped envelopes.
Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the
machine.
Do not leave them in the tray for long periods of time.
Dust and dirt may accumulate on them, resulting in spotty
printing.
To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them
carefully.
C
To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to
prolonged sunlight.
Only use transparencies recommended for use in laser
printers.
Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled, curled, or
have any torn edges.
•For labels:
Verify that their adhesive material can tolerate a fusing
temperature of 200
Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material
between them. Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off
during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed
adhesive can also cause damage to machine components.
Do not load a sheet of them through the machine more
than once. The adhesive backing is designed for one pass
through the machine.
Do not use labels that are separating from the backing
sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled or otherwise damaged.
Only use labels recommended for laser printers.
• For Card Stock or Custom-sized materials:
Postcards, 3.5 x 5.8 in. (89 x 148 mm) cards and other
custom-sized materials can be printed with this printer.
The minimum size is 3 x 5 in. (76 x 127 mm) and the
maximum size is 8.5 x 14 in. (216 x 356 mm)
Always insert the short-edge into the tray first. If you
want to print in landscape mode, make this selection
through your software. Inserting paper long-edge first
may cause a paper jam.
Do not print on media smaller than 3 in. (76 mm) wide or
5 in. (127 mm) long.
• For preprinted paper:
Letterheads must be printed with heat-resistant ink that
will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions
when subjected to the printer’s fusing temperature of
200 °C (392 °F) for 0.1 second.
Ink on letterheads must be non-flammable and should not
adversely affect any printer rollers.
Forms and letterheads should be sealed in a moistureproof wrapping to prevent changes during storage.
Before you load preprinted paper as forms and
letterheads, verify that the ink on the paper is dry. During
the fusing process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper.

Loading Paper
Proper paper loading helps prevent paper jams and ensure
trouble-free printing. Do not remove the paper in the tray while
a job is printing. Doing so may cause a paper jam. See “Paper
Type, Input Sources, and Capacities” on page 3.1 for
acceptable paper size and capacity for the tray.
Using the Tray
The tray holds 150 sheets of paper.
Load a stack of paper into the tray and print. For details about
loading paper in the tray, see “Loading Paper” on page 2.3.
