TOSHIBA Quality Is Second to None

Recommended toner cartridges

To assure optimal printing performance, we recommend that you use only genuine TOSHIBA toner cartridges.
If you use a TOSHIBA-recommended toner cartridge, you can utilize the following three func­tions of this equipment:
Cartridge detecting function:
This function checks if the toner cartridge is correctly installed and notifies you if it is not.
Toner remaining check function:
This function notifies you when there is little toner remaining in the cartridge.
Image quality optimization function:
This function controls image quality according to the characteristics of the toner to be used and enables you to print images of an optimal quality.
If you are using a toner cartridge other than the one we recommend, the equipment may not be able to detect whether it is installed or not. Therefore, even if the toner cartridge is correctly installed, the toner lamp lights or blinks and printing may not be performed. You may also not be able to utilize the image quality optimization and the toner remaining check functions. If you are using a toner cartridge other than the one we recommend, toner is not recognized. If this is a problem for you, please contact your service representative. Remember you will not be able to utilize the Toner remaining check function and Image quality optimization function as we mentioned.

10 TOSHIBA Quality Is Second to None

General Precautions

When installing or moving

Warning
y This equipment requires 115 V, 12 A, 50/60 Hz electric power.
Do not use a power supply with a voltage other than that specified. Avoid multiple connections in the same outlet. This could cause a fire or give you an electric shock. If you are considering increasing the number of outlets, contact an electrician.
y Always connect this equipment to an outlet with a ground connection to avoid the danger of
fire or electric shock in case of short-circuiting. Contact your service representative for the details. Be sure to use a 3-conductor, grounded wall outlet. In areas, except the U.S. and Canada, where a 2-pin plug is used, the equipment must be grounded for safety. Never ground it to a gas pipe, a water pipe, or any other object not suit­able for grounding.
y Plug the power cable securely into the outlet. If it is not plugged in properly, it could heat up
and cause a fire or give you an electric shock.
y Do not damage, break or attempt to repair the power cable.
The following things should not be done to the power cable.
- Twisting it
- Bending it
- Pulling it
- Placing anything on it
- Making it hot
- Situating it near radiators or other heat sources This could cause a fire or give you an electric shock. If the power cable is damaged, contact your service representative.
y Do not install the equipment by yourself or try to move it once it has been installed. This
could result in an injury or damage to the device. Contact your service representative if the equipment needs to be installed or moved.
y Pull the plug out from the outlet more than once a year to clean around the prongs. Accumu-
lating dust and dirt could cause a fire due to the heat released by electric leakage.
General Precautions 11
Caution
y Avoid placing the equipment in a place unsuitable for its weight and also make sure the sur-
face is level. Remember that if the equipment falls over, serious injuries could result. Weight of the equipment: approx. 70.1 lb.
y When removing the plug from the outlet, do not pull the power cable. Always hold the plug
when removing it from the outlet. If the power cable is pulled, the wires may become broken and this could cause a fire or give you an electric shock.
y Make sure that the ventilation holes are not blocked up.
If the temperature within the equipment becomes too high, a fire could result.
Other points
y The socket outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible. y Make sure that there is enough space around the system to facilitate changing of parts,
maintenance and clearing paper jams. If there is insufficient space, some operations, such as bypass feeding, will become difficult and the equipment could even break down. To insure optimal operation, allow clearances of at least 31.5" on the right, and 3.9" on the left and behind.
3.9"
3.9"
31.5"
y Be sure to fix the power cable securely so that no one trips over it. y Adverse environmental conditions may affect the safe operation and performance of the
equipment, and the equipment could break down.
- Avoid locations near windows or with exposure to direct sunlight.
- Avoid locations with drastic temperature fluctuations.
- Avoid too much dust.
- Avoid locations that suffer from vibration.
y Make sure that the air is able to flow freely and that there is sufficient ventilation.
With inadequate ventilation, the unpleasant odor released by the ozone will begin to domi­nate the atmosphere.
12 General Precautions

When using the equipment

Warning
y Do not take off the cover of the equipment; otherwise you could be injured or get an electric
shock.
y Do not remove or connect the plug with wet hands, as this could give you an electric shock. y Do not place any container with liquid (flower vases, coffee cups, etc.) on or near the equip-
ment. This could cause a fire or give you an electric shock.
y Keep paper clips and staples away from the air vent. If not, a fire could result or you could
get an electric shock.
y If the equipment becomes excessively hot, smoke comes out of it or there is an odd smell or
noise, proceed as follows. Turn the power OFF and remove the plug from the outlet, then contact your service repre­sentative.
y If the equipment will not be used for more than one month, remove the plug from the outlet
for safety purposes during that time. If an insulation failure occurs, this could cause a fire or give you an electric shock.
Caution
y Do not place heavy objects (9 lb. or more) on the original glass and do not press on it with
force. Breaking the glass could cause personal injury.
y Do not place heavy objects (9 lb. or more) on the equipment. If the objects fall off, this could

Saving energy when not in use - Energy saving mode -

To reduce power consumption, the equipment automatically enters into the energy saving mode when a specified period of time has passed since its last use. You can also turn the equipment into this mode manually.
Types of energy saving mode
There are two types of the energy saving mode as follows. Sleep mode: The power consumption is 18 W. “SLP” appears on the LED display, and only the
[ENERGY SAVER] lamp is lit.
Super sleep mode: The power consumption is 4 W. The LED display is blank, and only the
[ENERGY SAVER] lamp is lit.
y Either the sleep mode or the super sleep mode is enabled. The enabled mode and the time
until the mode is entered (Auto sleep time) can be changed.
P.70 “Changing of the Enabled Energy Saving Mode”
y There is another one called the low power mode. Since the time until the low power mode is
entered (Auto low power time) and the time until the energy saving mode is entered (Auto sleep time) work simultaneously, if auto sleep time is set shorter than auto low power time, the equipment enters into the energy saving mode, but not into the low power mode. P.18 “Energy saving features”

Paper Selection

You can select the size of copy paper in two ways; one is automatic paper selection in which the equipment automatically selects copy paper of the same size as the original, and the other is manual paper selection in which you can select the desired paper size manually.
Automatic paper selection (APS):
The equipment detects the size of the original placed and automatically selects copy paper of the same size as the original. This function is enabled only when standard size originals (LD, LG, LT, LT-R, COMP, ST-R) are used and also the Automatic Document Feeder (optional) is used.
Manual paper selection:
You can select the desired size of copy paper manually. This function can be used in a case the APS cannot be used, such as when originals are non-standard sizes or overhead transparen­cies, or when an original is placed on the original glass.
Automatic paper selection (APS) can be used only when you place originals on the Automatic Document Feeder (optional).

Automatic paper selection (APS)

When you place a standard size original on the Automatic Document Feeder (optional), the equipment detects its size and automatically selects copy paper of the same size as the original.
The standard sizes the equipment can detect are as follows: LD, LG, LT, LT-R, COMP, ST-R
The equipment may not be able to correctly detect the size of the originals listed below. Use manual paper selection for the following originals:
y Highly transparent ones (e.g. overhead transparencies, tracing paper) y Wholly dark ones or ones with dark borders y Non-standard size ones (e.g. newspapers, magazines)

Zooming In/Out Copy Image

You can set the reproduction ratio of the copy image in the following three ways:
Automatic magnification selection (AMS):
Specify the size of the copy paper in advance. As the original is placed, the equipment then detects the size of the original and sets the reproduction ratio most suited to the size of copy paper automatically. This function is enabled only when standard size originals (LD, LG, LT, LT-R, COMP, ST-R) are used and also the Automatic Document Feeder (optional) is used.
Specifying both the sizes of the original and the copy paper:
When you specify the sizes of both the original and the copy paper, the equipment automatically sets the reproduction ratio most suited to both of these sizes. This function can be used in case AMS cannot be, such as when the originals are overhead transparencies, or when an original is placed on the original glass.

5 TROUBLESHOOTING

When Message Lamp is Lit/Blinking

Message lamps on the control panel are lit or blink depending on the status of the equipment. Each lamp shows the following status:
1. Cover open lamp
This blinks when any cover of the equipment, such as the front cover, the side cover or the
upper cover of the Automatic Document Feeder (optional), is not securely closed. Close it
securely.
2. Paper empty lamp
This blinks when the paper in a drawer or on the bypass tray has run out. Add paper. For
how to place paper, see the following pages for the details:
P.32 “Placing paper in drawers”
P.48 “Using Bypass Tray”
1
2
3

3. Toner lamp
This shows you the current status of the remaining toner (only when a TOSHIBA-recom-
mended toner cartridge is used).
Lit: There is only a little toner left in the toner cartridge. (You do not have to replace the cartridge.) Blinking: The toner in the toner cartridge has run out. (Replace the cartridge.)
y It occasionally happens that the toner lamp may not light because the toner remaining in
the cartridge does not lie evenly.
y When the toner lamp starts being lit, it is advisable to purchase a new TOSHIBA-recom-
mended cartridge to prepare for its replacement.
y When a toner cartridge other than the one we recommend is used, remaining toner can-
not be checked. The toner lamp is lit or it blinks.
72 When Message Lamp is Lit/Blinking
To assure an optimal printing performance, we recommend that you use only TOSHIBA
toner cartridges.
Recommended toner cartridges
To assure optimal printing performance, we recommend that you use only genuine TOSHIBA toner car­tridges. If you use a TOSHIBA-recommended toner cartridge, you can utilize the following three functions of this equipment:
Cartridge detecting function: This function checks if the toner cartridge is correctly installed and notifies you if it is not. Toner-remaining check function: This function notifies you when there is little toner remaining in the cartridge. Image quality optimization function: This function controls image quality according to the characteris­tics of the toner to be used and enables you to print images of an optimal quality.
If you are using a toner cartridge other than the one we recommend, the equipment may not be able to detect whether it is installed or not. Therefore, even if the toner cartridge is correctly installed, the toner lamp lights or blinks and printing may not be performed. You may also not be able to utilize the image quality optimization function and the toner remaining check function. If you are using a toner cartridge other than the one we recommend, toner is not recognized. If this is a problem for you, please contact your service representative. Remember you will not be able to utilize the Toner remaining check function and Image quality optimization function as we mentioned.
4. Paper jam lamp
This blinks when an original or a sheet of copy paper is jammed.
For how to release paper jams, see the following page:
P.75 “Paper Jams”
When Message Lamp is Lit/Blinking 73
5 TROUBLESHOOTING
5. Service call lamp
This is lit or blinks when the support of your service technician is needed. Contact your ser-
vice representative.
When the key of the digital keys and the [CLEAR/STOP] button are pressed simulta­neously, an error code (consisting of a letter of the alphabet and numbers) appears on the LED
display. Contact your service representative with this code.
Never attempt to repair, disassemble or modify the equipment by yourself. This could cause an electric shock, a fire or serious injury. Contact your service representative when the equipment is in an abnormal condition or any mal­function is found.
