Important safety information

Be sure to save these instructions!

When using this equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to persons, including the following:

• CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cord.

• Do not disassemble this machine or attempt any procedures not described in this manual. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

• This machine must only be connected to a 120 V, 60 Hz, grounded (3-prong) outlet. Connecting it to any other kind of outlet will damage the machine and invalidate the warranty.

• Do not install or use the machine near water, or when you are wet. For example, do not use the machine near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool. Take care not to spill any liquids on the machine.

• Use only the power cord provided with the machine. Do not use an AC extension cord.

• Unplug the machine from the telephone jack and then the power outlet and consult a qualified service representative if any of the following situations occur:

- Liquid has been spilled into the machine or the machine has been exposed to rain or water.

- The machine produces odors, smoke, or unusual noises.

- The power cord is frayed or damaged.

- The machine has been dropped or the housing damaged.

• Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord, and do not install the machine where people may walk on the power cord.

• Never insert objects of any kind into slots or openings on the machine. This could create a risk of fire or electric shock. If an object falls into the machine that you cannot safely remove, unplug the machine and consult a qualified service representative.

• Do not place this machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. The machine could be seriously damaged if it falls.

• Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.

• Do not use a telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

• The power outlet must be installed near the equipment and must be easily accessible.

Important:

• This machine is not designed for use on a line which has call waiting, call forwarding, or certain other special services offered by your telephone company. If you attempt to use the machine in conjunction with any of these services, you may experience errors during transmission and reception of facsimile messages.

• This machine is not compatible with digital telephone systems.

1. Installation

Unpacking Checklist

Before setting up, make sure you have all of the following items. If any are missing, contact your dealer.

Power cord

Received document tray

Telephone line cord

Rapid Key labels

Toner cartridge

Paper size labels

Points to keep in mind when setting up

Drum cartridge

Operation manual

ADF exit tray

Do not place the machine in direct sunlight.

About condensation

If the machine is moved from a cold to a warm place, it is possible that condensation may form on the scanning glass, preventing proper scanning of documents for transmission. To remove the condensation, turn on the power and wait approximately two hours before using the machine.

Do not place the machine near heaters or air conditioners.

Keep dust away from the machine.

Keep the area around the machine clear.

Connections

Connecting the power cord

Connect the female end of the power cord to the machine as shown. Insert the male end into a 120 V, 60 Hz, grounded (3-prong) AC outlet.

Important!

The machine requires its own dedicated power outlet. The power outlet must not be shared with any other devices. In particular, do not use an extension cord to connect multiple devices to the outlet.

Press the power switch to turn on the power.

1. Installation

Note: If your area experiences a high incidence of lightning or power surges, we recommend that you install surge protectors for the power and telephone lines. Surge protectors can be purchased at most telephone specialty stores.

Connections

Connecting the telephone line cord

Insert one end of the line cord into the jack on the back of the machine marked TEL. LINE. Insert the other end into a standard (RJ11C) single-line wall telephone jack.

Note: The machine is set for touch-tone dialing. If you are on a pulse dial (rotary) line, you must set the machine for pulse dialing by changing Option Setting 22. See page 207.

Connecting a telephone (optional)

If desired, you can connect a telephone to the TEL. SET jack on the back of the machine.

Attaching the ADF exit tray

Insert the protrusion on the right side of the machine into the hole in the right side of the ADF exit tray ➊, then bend the tray slightly and insert so that the protrusion on the left side of the machine goes into the hole on the left side of

the ADF exit tray ➋. Pull out the tray extension ➌.

Connections

1. Installation

Attaching the received document tray

Slide the received document tray into the machine as shown. When it stops, lift the end slightly and push in so that the tray locks into place.

Important!

The received document tray must be attached for the machine to operate properly.

Installing the Print Cartridges

Follow the steps below to install or replace the toner and drum cartridges.

♦ The initial starter toner cartridge included with the machine can print

approximately 3000 letter-size pages (4% coverage of each page; continuous printing).

♦ The replacement toner cartridge (FO-50ND) can print approximately 6000

letter-size pages.

♦ The drum cartridge (FO-47DR) can print approximately 20,000 letter-size

pages.

1 Press the cover release to open the

print compartment cover.

• Caution!

The fusing unit inside the print compartment becomes very hot during operation. Be careful not to touch the inside of the compartment.

2 If you are replacing the toner cartridge,

remove the old cartridge and dispose of it according to local regulations.

Go directly to Step 5 if you are only replacing the toner cartridge and not the drum cartridge.

• If you are replacing the drum cartridge

but not the toner cartridge, remove the toner cartridge and place it on a sheet of paper.

To make the cartridge more compact for disposal, press the buttons on the ends of the handle and fold the handle down.

Installing the Print Cartridges

3 If you are replacing the drum cartridge,

remove the old cartridge and dispose of it according to local regulations.

4 Remove the new drum cartridge from

its packaging. Insert the drum cartridge into the print compartment.

• Caution! Excessive exposure to light

will damage the drum cartridge. Install the cartridge promptly after removing it from its packaging.

• Make sure the drum cartridge is

inserted in as far as it will go.

5 If you are installing a new toner

cartridge, remove the new toner cartridge from its packaging. Remove the tape from the cartridge and then open the cartridge handle so that it stands straight up.
