Explanation

• This function automatically switches the machine to a state that consumes even less power than preheat mode if the set duration of time elapses without the machine being used when the power is on. All lights except the power save indicator go off. To resume normal operation, press the [START] key ( ). Normal operation also resumes automatically when a print job is received or scanning is begun from a computer. While in auto power shut-off mode, no keys (except the [START] key ( )) can be used.

• When copying using the RSPF, while "SET ORIGINALS FOR STREAM FEEDING." appears in the display after an original has been scanned (about 5 seconds), a subsequent original can be placed and automatically fed into the machine.

• Use this setting to select the layout pattern when two original pages are copied onto a single sheet of paper (see page 35 for the layout patterns).

• When enabled, this function offsets the position in the paper output tray of sets of copies during copy job, and print jobs when using the printer function.

• When two-sided copying is performed, this function rotates the image on the back of the original. This is convenient when binding the copies at the top (tablet binding).

Explanation

• The copy resolution in auto and text mode is normally 300 dpi. If high-quality copies are preferred, use this setting to change the resolution to 600 dpi.

• If the memory fills up when two-sided copying is performed, "NORMAL" can be selected to make copying possible. However, "NORMAL" results in a slower copying speed. Normally "HISPEED" is selected to enable fast two-sided copying.

• Use this setting to set the margin width.

• Use this to change the proportion of machine memory used for printer mode.

• Use this setting to select whether or not holding down a key causes repeated input of the key. For keys that normally cause a set value to increase when held down (for example, holding down the [ ] key ( ) or [ ] key ( )), this program can be used to have the set value not change when the key is held down.

• Use this setting to select how long a key must be pressed for the input to be accepted. By selecting a longer time, you can prevent settings from being changed by the accidental pressing of a key.

• This sets the volume of beep signals. (p.70)

>2000mg/kg (Rats)

:In 1996 the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a Group 2B carcinogen (possible

human carcinogen). This classification is given to chemicals for which there is inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal evidence on which to base an opinion of carcinogenicity. The classification is based upon the development of lung tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures to free carbon black at levels that induce particle overload of the lung. Studies performed in animal models other than rats did not show any association between carbon black and lung tumors. Moreover, a two-year cancer bioassay using a typical toner preparation containing carbon black demonstrated no association between toner exposure and tumor development in rats.

Eye irritation : Not an irritant (Rabbits) Skin irritation :Not an irritant (Rabbits) Skin sensitizer :No sensitization

Mutagenicity :Negative (Ames Test) Carcinogenicity :In 1996 the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a Group 2B carcinogen

(possible human carcinogen). This classification is given to chemicals for which there is inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal evidence on which to base an opinion of carcinogenicity. The classification is based upon the development of lung tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures to free carbon black at levels that induce particle overload of the lung. Studies performed in animal models other than rats did not show any association between carbon black and lung tumors. Moreover, a two-year cancer bioassay using a typical toner preparation containing carbon black demonstrated no association between toner exposure and tumor development in rats.

Chronic Effect :In a study in rats of chronic inhalation exposure to a typical toner, a mild to

Required in IEC-950 (EN 60 950) - Europe

• The equipment should be installed near an accessible socket outlet for easy disconnection.

Required in Appendix ZB of BS 7002 (En 60 950) — United Kingdom

The mains lead of this equipment is already fitted with a mains plug which is either a non-rewireable (moulded) or a rewireable type. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved fuse

to BS1362 marked or and of the same rating as the one removed from the plug must be used. Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse on the moulded plug. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted. In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied either cut-off the moulded plug (if this type is fitted) or remove by undoing the screws if a rewireable plug is fitted and fit an appropriate type observing the wiring code below.

DANGER: The fuse should be removed from the cut-off plug and the plug destroyed immediately and disposed of in a safe manner. Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet as a serious electric shock may occur.

To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below: IMPORTANT: The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

As the colours of the wires in this mains lead may not correspond with coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: The wire which is coloured GREEN-AND YELLOW must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E, or by the safety earth symbol Å@, or coloured green or greenand-yellow. The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black. The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.

If you have any doubt, consult a qualified electrician. WARNING: THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED.
