WARNING: Changes or modification made to this equipment, not expressly approved by
Toshiba TEC or parties authorized by Toshiba TEC could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
Storage of Colour Copies
(1) The copies should be kept in a place which is not exposed to light to prevent fading when
they are stored for a long time.
(2) If copies are kept pressed between plastics made of chloroethylene for a long time, the
toner may melt and stick to the plastic due to high pressure and high temperature. Keep
them in polythene binders.
(3) When a colour copy is folded, the toner at the fold can become separated.
(4) The toner on the copies may melt if it touches solvent. If the ink on the copies is not dried
completely, the toner may also melt. Keep copies away from solvent.
(5) When copies are kept near an extremely high temperature such as a heater, the toner may
melt. Keep them under room temperature which does not vary very much.
Forgery Prevention Function
This copier has a forgery prevention function.
Please ensure that your digital full colour copier is not used for making copies of prohibited
items.

Features of the FC15/22
The FC15/22 is a plain paper digital colour copier.
The FC15/22 allows you not only to process and edit these digital image data, but also enables
copies to be sorted and grouped quietly, quickly and easily. The FC15/22 incorporates a largesize display with a touch panel and menu keys that graphically represent copier functions. As
a result, anybody can make clear-looking copies quickly and easily.
The FC15/22 also has the following convenient features.
● The first copy is output in 10.3 seconds.
● Full-colour copying speed is 15/22 copies (A4) per minute.
● The original developed 4-beam laser optical unit allows for a compact copier.
● The latest image processing technology reproduces high-resolution real colour.
● A fixing system with less oil reduces the amount of oil stuck to the paper which improves the
transparency of the OHP film.
● Comes with the following digital editing functions:
Trimming, masking, negative/positive reversal, full image,image repeat and mirror image.
● Copy sizes from A5 up to A3 are acceptable. Special paper such as thick paper (60~209g/m
OHP films, labels and A3-wide paper (304.8mm x 457.2mm) are also acceptable as copy sizes.
2
),
Options
● By installing the optional reversing automatic document feeder and automatic duplexer,
duplex copies or single-sided copies can be made automatically from two-sided originals.
Duplex copies can also be made automatically from single-sided originals.
● Adding the optional 20-bin staple sorter permits the quick stapling and sorting of copies.
● The optional advance image enhancement mode automatically analyses the original to
optimally reproduce text, illustrations and photographs.
● Installing an optional printer unit allows additional functions such as scanning images by the
copier and printing out data from the PCs.
If an optional printer controller is installed, this copier can be used as a colour printer or scanner
also.
For purchasing the printer controller, please ask your service centre or distributor.
The FC15/22 should be installed by a qualified service technician.
Note: The packing material should be disposed of properly.
1
To obtain the best possible results, this copier should be used in conjunction with a
dedicated AC power line at the following ratings:
2
220-240 V, 50/60 Hz, 9 A
Notes:
1. The use of other appliances or other equipment on the same line as this copier may adversely
affect performance and copy quality.
2. Be sure to use a 3-conductor, grounded wall outlet.
3. In areas where a 2-pin plug is used, the copier must be grounded for safety.
Never ground it to a gas pipe, a water pipe, or any other object not suitable for grounding.
After a suitable place has been selected for the installation for the FC15/22, please do
not change it. Avoid excessive heat, dust, vibration and direct sunlight. Also, provide
3
proper ventilation as the copier emits a slight amount of ozone.

PRECAUTIONS
Notes:
1. Recommended environmental range for use is as follows:
• Temperature: 10~30C/50~86F
• Humidity: 20~80%RH
2. To insure optimal operation, allow clearances of at least 80cm on the left, 80cm on the right
and 10cm in the rear.

PRECAUTIONS (Cont.)
2. GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Handle and use the copier gently and carefully.
Do not place anything on the paper cassettes or original feed tray.
1
Never allow the power cable to be trampled on or pinched between hard objects, otherwise
an accident or electrical trouble might occur.
Do not allow any metal things such as paper clips to fall into the copier.
Be sure to turn OFF the power switch (unless using automatic timer mode):
When you leave your office at night.
2
If a power failure occurs.
Caution: When turning OFF the power switch, be sure to do so only after the machine cycling
has come to a complete stop.
Be sure to disconnect the power-cord plug:
when you do not intend to use the copier for an extended period of time such as during
weekends or the summer vacation.
Be sure to turn OFF the power switch immediately and call for service:
If an unusual noise is heard from the copier.
If the outside of the copier becomes unusually hot.
If any part of this copier is damaged, or if it has been dropped.
If the copier has been exposed to rain or liquid.
It is recommended that only supplies made or designated by Toshiba be used for the
FC15/22 in order to optimize copy quality. All supplies should be stored in a cool,
3
dry area.
Paper of lower quality may contain inherent properties such as excess paper dust and may
lead to premature servicing.
DO NOT LEAN ON, APPLY FORCE OR PLACE HEAVY OBJECTS ON SORTER. PERSONAL
INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE MAY RESULT.

4.USING THE REVERSING AUTOMATIC DOCUMENT FEEDER (OPTIONAL)
The optional Reversing Automatic Document Feeder automatically feeds and copies sheet
paper originals placed on the feeding tray one at a time. This is called the “continuous feed
mode.” You can also manually feed originals in one sheet at a time. This is called the “single
feed mode.” If you feed in two-sided originals, this document feeder automatically reverses
originals after they have been copied so that their reverse sides can be copied.
Precautions When Feeding Originals
Use originals with a paper weight in the range of 60 to 105 g/m2.
1
The number of the originals you can set up at a time differs depending on their size.

Do not use the following types of originals as they tend to misfeed or become damaged
in the reversing automatic document feeder:
3
(1) Badly wrinkled or folded originals. In
particular, originals
whose leading edge
is curled may be
misfed.
(2) Carbon paper
(3) Taped originals(6) Damp originals (7) OHP film originals
Folded or curled originals should be smoothed out before
being set on the reversing automatic document feeder.

60~90g/m291~105g/m
(4) Clipped or stapled originals
(5) Torn originals (including those with holes
in them)

24
Do not mix originals of different widths at the same time.
5
If the surface of the originals is so rough that they cannot
be moved when two of them are pinched between two
6
fingertips, or if the surface has been processed, these
originals could not be used because the automatic
document feeder may not be able to separate them.
