Operator Safety:

This machine is considered a CDRH class 1 laser device, safe for office/ EDP use. The machine contains 10-milliwatt, 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.

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.

Caution:

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

Do not attempt any maintenance or troubleshooting other than that mentioned in this manual. This 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.

Supplier shall not be responsible for any damage or expense that might result from the use of parts other than genuine supplier's parts in your supplier's office product.

For good copy quality, supplier recommends that you use genuine supplier's toner.

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.

Safety Information

When using your equipment, the following safety precautions should always be followed.

Safety During Operation

In this manual, the following important symbols are used:

RWARNING:

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if instructions are not followed, could result in death or serious injury.

RCAUTION:

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if instructions are not followed, may result in minor or moderate injury or damage to property.

RWARNING:

Connect the power cord directly into a wall outlet and never use an extension cord.

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

Disconnect the power plug (by pulling the plug, not the cable) if the power cable or plug becomes frayed or damaged.

To avoid hazardous electric shock or laser radiation exposure, do not remove any covers or screws other than those specified in this manual.

Turn off the power and disconnect the power plug (by pulling the plug, not the cable) if any of the following conditions exist:

You spill something into the equipment.

You suspect that your equipment needs service or repair.

Your equipment's cover has been damaged.

Do not incinerate spilled toner or used toner. Toner dust is flammable and might ignite when exposed to an open flame.

Disposal should take place at an authorized dealer or appropriate collection site.

If you dispose of the used toner containers yourself, dispose of them according to local regulations.

ii

RCAUTION:

Protect the equipment from dampness or wet weather, such as rain, snow, and so on.

Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before you move the equipment. While moving the equipment, you should take care that the power cord will not be damaged under the equipment.

When you disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull the plug (not the cable).

Do not allow paper clips, staples, or other small metallic objects to fall inside the equipment.

Do not eat or swallow toner.

Keep toner (used or unused) and toner cartridge out of reach of children.

For environmental reasons, do not dispose of the equipment or expended supplies at a household waste collection point. Disposal should take place at an authorized dealer or an appropriate collection site.

Our products are engineered to meet the highest standards of quality and functionality. When purchasing expendable supplies, we recommend using only those specified by an authorized dealer.

The inside of the machine becomes very hot. Do not touch the parts with a label indicating a “hot surface”. Touching a “hot surface” could result in a burn injury.

If you use this printer in a cold area, leave the printer on. Otherwise, severe cold might damage sensitive components inside the printer.

-Small Size Print Area

This printer supports printing on print areas such as “A4 Small” and “Letter Small” when printing from a Macintosh only with specific versions of the driver. Printing with the LaserWriter 8.4x (or later) driver supports printing on both standard and small print areas. However, with LaserWriter 8.3x (or earlier), the small print area options are not displayed.

With LaserWriter 8.3x (or earlier), select A4, for example, and click [Options] in the [Page Setup] dialog box, then use the [Larger Print Area] option. Checking [Larger Print Area] produces the same printing result as LaserWriter 8.4x (or later) standard A4 print area. Unchecking the [Larger Print Area] produces the same result as the LaserWriter 8.4x (or later) “A4 Small” print area.
