CAUTION
This laser radiation is not a danger to the skin, but when an exact focusing of the laser beam is achieved on the eye’s retina, there is the danger of spot damage to the retina.
The following cautions must be observed to avoid exposure of the laser beam to your eyes at the time of servicing.
1) When a problem in the laser optical unit has occurred, the whole optical unit must be exchanged as a unit, not as individual parts.
2) Do not look into the machine with the mainswitch turned on after removing the developer unit, toner cartridge, and drum cartridge.
3) Do not look into the laser beam exposure slit of the laser optical unit with the connector connected when removing and installing the opti
cal system.
4) The middle frame contains the safety interlock switch.
Do not defeat the safety interlock by inserting wedges or other items into the switch slot.

This product is a class 1 laser product that complies with 21CFR 1040 of the CDRH standard and IEC825. This means that this machine does not produce hazardous laser radiation. The use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
The foregoing is applicable only to the 220V model, 230V model and 240V model.

At the production line, the output power of the scanner unit is adjusted to 0.57 MILLI-WATT PLUS 20 PCTS and is maintained constant by the operation of the Automatic Power Control (APC). Even if the APC circuit fails in operation for some reason, the maximum output power will only be 15 MILLI-WATT 0.1 MICRO-SEC. Giving and accessible emission level of 42 MICRO-WATT which is still-less than the limit of CLASS-1 laser product.
Caution
This product contains a low power laser device. To ensure continued safety do not remove any cover or attempt to gain access to the inside of the product. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel.

[5] UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION

1. Copier installation

Improper installation may damage the copier. Please note the fol­lowing during initial installation and whenever the copier is moved.
Caution: If the copier is moved from a cool place to a warm place,
condensation may form inside the copier. Operation in this condition will cause poor copy quality and malfunc­tions. Leave the copier at room temperature for at least 2 hours before use.
Do not install your copier in areas that are:
• damp, humid, or very dusty
• exposed to direct sunlight
• poorly ventilated

2. Cautions on handling

Be careful in handling the copier as follows to maintain the perfor­mance of this copier.
Do not drop the copier, subject it to shock or strike it against any object.
Do not expose the drum cartridge to direct sunlight. Doing so will damage the surface (green portion) of the drum car-
tridge, causing poor print quality.
• subject to extreme temperature or humidity changes, e.g., near
The copier should be installed near an accessible power outlet for easy connection.
Be sure to connect the power cord only to a power outlet that meets the specified voltage and current requirements.
Also make certain the outlet is properly grounded. Be sure to allow the required space around the machine for servic-
ing and proper ventilation.
an air conditioner or heater.
Store spare supplies such as drum cartridges and toner cartridges in a dark place without removing from the package before use.
If they are exposed to direct sunlight, poor print quality may result. Do not touch the surface (green portion) of the drum cartridge. Doing so will damage the surface of the cartridge, causing poor
print quality.

3. Checking packed components and accessories

Open the carton and check if the following components and acces­sories are included.

4. Unpacking

Be sure to hold the handles on both sides of the unit to unpack the unit and carry it to the installation location.

5. Removing protective packing materials

Remove all pieces of tape shown in the illustration below. Then open the SPF and remove protective materials. After that, take out the bag containing the toner cartridge.

7) Remove the screw (1 pc).
8) Remove Upper developer unit.
9) Shake the aluminum bag to stir developer
10) Supply developer from the aluminum bag to the top of the MX roller evenly.

6. Developer unit installation

1) 2) 3) Open the side and front cabinets of the copier.
4) Remove the locking tape of the developer unit.
5) Remove the screw which is fixing the copier and Developer unit.
6) Remove Developer unit slowly from the copier.

Note: Be careful not to spill developer outside Developer unit.
11) Attach Upper developer unit and fix it with a screw.
12) Rotate the MG roller gear to distribute developer evenly.
Note: Never rotate the gear in the reverse direction.
MX-B201/B201D UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION 5 - 2
Note: When carrying Developer unit, do not tilt it extremely as
shown with the arrow in the figure below. (To prevent spilling developer)
13) Insert Developer unit carefully into the copier. Note: Quick insertion may result in splash of developer. Be
sure to insert carefully.
