CAUTIONS

CAUTION

Do not install the machine in a location with poor ventilation. Install so that exhaust from the machine does not directly contact people.

A small amount of ozone is produced within the printer during operation. The emission level is insufficient to cause any health hazard. The present recommended long term exposure limit for ozone is 0.1 ppm (0.2 mg/m calculated as an 8 hr. time-weighted average concentration. However, since the small amount that is emitted may have an objectionable odor, it is advisable to place the copier in a ventilated area.

)

Do not install the machine on an unstable or slanted surface. Install the machine on a surface that can withstand the weight of the machine.

Risk of injury due to the machine falling or toppling. If peripheral devices are to be installed, do not install on an uneven floor, slanted surface, or otherwise unstable surface. Danger of slippage, falling, and toppling. Install the product on a flat, stable surface that can withstand the weight of the product. (Weight when various peripheral devices are installed: approx. 130 kg (287 lbs.))

When removing the power plug from the outlet, do not pull on the cord.

Pulling on the cord may cause damage such as wire exposure and breakage, and may result in fire or electrical shock.

Do not look directly at the light source.

Doing so may damage your eyes.

Do not block the ventilation ports on the machine. Do not install the machine in a location that will block the ventilation ports.

Blocking the ventilation ports will cause heat to build up in the machine, creating a risk of fire.

Do not throw toner, a toner container (toner cartridge), or a waste toner box into a fire.

Toner may fly and cause burns.

When the machine is installed, the adjusters (4) must be lowered to the floor to secure the machine (prevent it from moving).

Rotate the adjusters in the locking direction until they are in firm contact with the floor.

If you find it necessary to reposition the machine due to rearrangement of your office layout or other reason, retract the adjusters from the floor, turn off the power, and then move the machine.

(After moving the machine, lower the adjusters again to secure the machine.)

The fusing unit is hot. When removing a misfeed, do not touch the fusing unit. Take care not to burn yourself.

When loading paper, removing a misfeed, performing maintenance, closing the front and side covers, and inserting and removing trays, take care that your fingers are not pinched.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

The performance of the machine is affected by the ambient conditions of the installation location. Do not install in the following locations:

CAUTION: Do not install the machine in a location with poor air circulation.

A small amount of ozone is created inside the machine during printing. The amount of ozone created is not sufficient to be harmful; however, an unpleasant odor may be noticed during large copy runs, and thus the machine should be installed in a room with a ventilation fan or windows that provide sufficient air circulation. (The odor may occasionally cause headaches.)

* Install the machine so that people are not directly

exposed to exhaust from the machine. If installed near a window, ensure that the machine is not exposed to direct sunlight.

Dusty locations

If dust enters the machine, dirty output and machine failure may result.

Locations exposed to direct sunlight

Locations that are excessively hot, cold, humid, or dry (near heaters, humidifiers, air conditioners, etc.)

The paper will become damp and condensation may form inside the machine, causing misfeeds and dirty output.

☞ Ambient environment (page 10)

If the location has an ultrasonic humidifier, use pure water for humidifiers in the humidifier. If tap water is used, minerals and other impurities will be emitted, causing impurities to collect on the inside of the machine and create dirty output.

Near a wall

Be sure to allow the required space around the machine for servicing and proper ventilation. (The machine should be no closer than the distances indicated below from walls. The indicated distances are for the case when a saddle finisher and large capacity paper tray are not installed.)

30cm (11-13/16")

Plastic parts may become deformed and dirty output may result.

Locations with ammonia gas

Installing the machine next to a diazo copy machine may cause dirty output.

Locations subject to vibration.

Vibration may cause failure.

30cm (11-13/16")

The machine includes a built-in hard drive. Do not subject the machine to shock or vibration. In particular, never move the machine while the power is on.

• The machine should be installed near an accessible power outlet for easy connection.

• Connect the machine to a power outlet which is not used for other electric appliances. If a lighting fixture is connected to the same outlet, the light may flicker.

45cm (17-23/32")

SUPPLIES

Standard supplies for this product that can replaced by the user include paper, toner cartridges, and staple cartridges for the finisher. Be sure to use only SHARP-specified products for the toner cartridges, finisher staple cartridge, and transparency film.

For best copying results, be sure to use only Sharp Genuine Supplies which are designed, engineered, and tested to maximize the life and performance of Sharp products. Look for the Genuine Supplies label on the toner package.

GENUINE SUPPLIES

Storage of supplies

Proper storage

1. Store the supplies in a location that is:

• clean and dry,

• at a stable temperature,

• not exposed to direct sunlight.

2. Store paper in the wrapper and lying flat.

3. Paper stored in packages standing up or out of the wrapper may curl or become damp, resulting in paper misfeeds.

Storing toner cartridges

Store a new toner cartridge box horizontally. Do not store it standing on end. If stored standing on end, the toner may not distribute well even after shaking the cartridge vigorously, and will remain inside the cartridge without flowing out.

Staple cartridge

The finisher requires the following staple cartridge:

MX-SCX1 Approx. 5000 per cartridge x 3 cartridges
