Safety
WARNING: Adjustments, use of controls, or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein may result in
hazardous light exposure.
The Xerox DocuPrint printers are certified to comply with the
performance standards of the U.S. Department of Health,
Education, and Welfare for Class 1 laser products. Class 1 laser
products do not emit hazardous radiation. The DocuPrint printers
do not emit hazardous radiation because the laser beam is
completely enclosed during all modes of customer operation.
The laser danger labels on the system are for Xerox service
representatives and are on or near panels or shields that must be
removed with a tool.
DO NOT REMOVE LABELED PANELS OR PANELS NEAR
LABELS. ONLY XEROX SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES HAVE
ACCESS TO THESE PANELS.
Ozone information: U. S. only
This product produces ozone during normal operation. The
amount of ozone produced depends on copy volume. Ozone is
heavier than air. The environmental parameters specified in the
Xerox installation instructions ensure that concentration levels are
within safe limits. If you need additional information concerning
ozone, call 1-800-828-6571 to request the Xerox publication
