Safety Information

Laser Safety

Laser Notice

This printer is certified as a Class 1 laser product under the U.S.
Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Radiation
Performance Standard according to Radiation Control for Health and
Safety Act of 1968. This means that the printer does not produce
hazardous laser radiation. Since radiation emitted inside the printer is
completely confined within protective housings and external covers, the
laser beam cannot escape from the printer during any phase of user
operation.

This printer is certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS
21 CFR Subchapter for Class I (1) laser products, and elsewhere is
certified as a Class I laser product conforming to the requirements of IEC

825.

DANGER:CLASS 3B LASER RADIATION WHEN OPEN. AVOID

DIRECT EXPOSURE TO BEAM.

CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures

other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation
exposure.

Radio Frequency Transmitter

This machine contains the transmitter module. We, the manufacturer
(UTAX GmbH) hereby declare that this equipment (page printer),
models LP 4030/LP 4035/LP 4045 are in compliance with the essential
requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC.

Radio Tag Technology

In some countries the radio tag technology used in this equipment to
identify the toner container may be subject to authorization and the use of
this equipment may consequently be restricted.

CDRH Regulations

The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration implemented regulations for laser products on
August 2, 1976. These regulations apply to laser products manufactured
after August 1, 1976. Compliance is mandatory for products marketed in
the United States. A label indicating compliance with the CDRH regulations
must be attached to laser products marketed in the United States.

Ozone Concentration

The printers generate ozone gas (O3) which may concentrate in the place
of installation and cause an unpleasant smell. To minimize the

concentration of ozone gas to less than 0.1ppm, we recommend you not
to install the printer in a confined area where ventilation is blocked.
