DISCLAIM ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR
A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR ANY SIMILAR STANDARD IMPOSED BY APPLICABLE
LEGISLATION. XEROX' RESPONSIBILITY TO REPAIR, REPLACE, OR OFFER A
REFUND FOR DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS AND CUSTOMER REPLACEABLE

If you are an Australian consumer, you should be aware that the Trade Practices Act
1974 and equivalent State and Territory legislation (collectively "the Acts") contain
special provisions designed to protect Australian consumers. Nothing in any Fuji Xerox
warranty material excludes or limits the application of any provision of any of the Acts,
where to do so would contravene the Acts or cause any part of this warranty to be void.
In this warranty material, an implied condition or warranty, the exclusion of which from
a contract with a "Consumer" (as defined in the Acts) would contravene any provision of
the Acts or cause any part or all of this warranty to be void, is called a "Non-excludable
Condition". To the full extent permitted by law, Fuji Xerox’s sole and total liability to
the customer for a breach of any Non-excludable Condition (including for any
consequential loss suffered by the customer) is limited, except as otherwise stated
herein, to (at Fuji Xerox’ option) replacing or repairing the goods, or resupplying, or
paying the cost of the resupply of, the services, in respect of which the breach occurred.
Subject to the above, all conditions and warranties which would or might otherwise be
implied in a Consumer contract, whether by operation of statute, inference from
circumstances, industry practice or otherwise, are excluded.
User safety summary
Your printer and the recommended consumable supplies have been designed and tested
to meet strict safety requirements. Attention to the following notes will ensure the
continued safe operation of your printer.
Electrical Safety
Use the power cord supplied with your printer.
■
Do not use a ground adapter plug to connect the printer to a power source
■
receptacle that lacks a ground connection terminal.
Plug the power cord directly into a properly grounded electrical outlet. Do not use
■
an extension cord. If you do not know whether an outlet is grounded, ask an
electrician to check the outlet.
Warning
Avoid the potential of severe electrical shock by ensuring the printer is
properly grounded.
■
Do not place the printer where people may step on the power cord.
■
Do not place objects on the power cord.
■
Do not obstruct the ventilation openings. These openings are provided to prevent
overheating of the printer.
Warning
Do not push objects into slots and openings on the printer. Making a contact
with a voltage point or shorting out a part could result in fire or electrical
shock.
If you notice unusual noises or odors, switch off the printer power immediately.
■
Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet. Call an authorized service
representative to correct the problem.
■
The power cord is attached to the printer as a plug-in device at the back of the
printer. In the event it is necessary to remove all electrical power from the printer,
disconnect the power cord from the power receptacle.
If any of the following conditions occur, switch off the printer power immediately,
■
disconnect the power cord, and call an authorized service representative.
The power cord is damaged or frayed.
■
Liquid is spilled into the printer.
■
The printer is exposed to water.
■
Any part of the printer is damaged.
■
Maintenance Safety
■
Do not attempt any maintenance procedure that is not specifically described in the
documentation supplied with your printer.
Do not use aerosol cleaners. The use of supplies that are not approved may cause
■
poor performance and could create a dangerous condition.
Do not remove the covers or guards that are fastened with screws unless you are
■
installing optional equipment and are specifically instructed to do so. Power
should be OFF when performing these installations. Except for user installable
options, there are no parts that you can maintain or service behind these covers.
Operational Safety
Your printer and supplies were designed and tested to meet strict safety requirements.
These include safety agency examination, approval, and compliance with established
environmental standards.
Your attention to the following safety guidelines will help to ensure the continued safe
operation of your printer.

Place the printer in a dust free area where the temperature range is 50 degrees F to
90 degrees F (10 degrees C to 32 degrees C) and the relative humidity is 10 percent
to 85 percent.
■
Place the printer in an area where there is adequate space for ventilation,
operation and servicing. The recommended minimal spacing is 90 cm (36 in.) in
front of and above the printer, 60 cm (24 in.) behind the printer, and 30 cm (12 in.)
on each side of the printer. Do not block or cover the slots and openings on the
printer. Without adequate ventilation, the printer may overheat.

Paper Tips
Do not use any media designed for inkjet printers, especially
inkjet coated paper and inkjet transparencies. Inkjet media is
coated with a substance that can damage printer components.
Damage caused by using non-supported media is not covered
by the printer’s warranty. Always use Xerox Phaser media
that has been specially designed for use with your printer.
Use only Xerox Phaser 35 Series Transparencies. Other
transparencies may cause damage to the fuser. Any damage
that is caused due to the use of unsupported media is not
covered by your printer’s warranty.
0730-23
■For specialty media, use the Multi-Sheet Bypass Feeder (MBF)
with the Face-up output bin open at the rear of the printer; refer to
page 26.
■For best results, use Xerox Phaser paper; it is guaranteed to
produce excellent results on your Phaser 1235 printer.
■A low-paper message is displayed when there are approximately
30 to 40 sheets of paper remaining in the paper tray.
■Auto tray switching is available. When one tray runs out of media,
the printer switches to the next tray that contains the same media
size. If you do not have a second tray, a Load Tray 1 message
appears on the front panel.
■While Tray 1 is printing, Tray 2 and Tray 3 may be loaded with
paper.
16Phaser 1235 Color Printer
■Always keep media in a sealed package to avoid the effects of
humidity, which can affect print quality.
■If you use non-Xerox paper, make sure that it meets the following
criteria:
■Weight range: 60-203g/m
■Smooth surface
■Intended for laser printers
■Do not use wrinkled or damaged paper.

Caution
Never use envelopes with windows or metal clasps; they will
damage the printer.
■Tuck in the envelope flap to reduce wrinkling.
■Do not print on the back of the envelope.
■Keep unused envelopes in their packaging to avoid the
effects of moisture and dryness, which can affect print
quality and cause wrinkling.
■Many applications include a tool for creating an envelope
document. For example, Microsoft Word includes an
Envelopes and Labels feature under the Tools menu. Make
sure that you select Face Up; select the feed method with the
image centered; and unselect Clockwise Rotation.
■Load a maximum of 10 envelopes at a time.
■No exposed gummed surfaces.
■Single-sided printing only.
Note

Additional Information: The results obtained from a Xerox-sponsored Chronic
Toner Inhalation Study demonstrated no lung changes in rats for the lowest
(1 mg/m
exposure). A very slight degree of fibrosis was noted in 25 percent of the
animals at the middle (4 mg/m
fibrosis was noted in all the animals at the highest (16 mg/m
3
) exposure level (i.e., the level most relevant to potential human
3
) exposure level, while a slight degree of
3
) exposure level.
The findings are attributed to lung overloading, a generic response to excessive
60Phaser 1235 Color Printer
amounts of any dust retained in the lungs for a prolonged period. This study
was conducted using a special test toner to comply with EPA testing protocol.
The test toner was ten times more respirable than commercially available
Xerox toner and would not be functionally suitable for Xerox equipment.
These materials are not RCRA hazardous wastes as specified in 40 CFR 261.
State and local waste disposal requirements, however, may be more restrictive.
Dispose in accordance with all federal, state, and local regulations. Incinerate
only in a closed container.

Product is distributed as a single-use, presaturated pad, in which all the liquid
is absorbed by the applicator. Isopropyl alcohol is a flammable liquid. Eye
contact will cause local irritation and burning sensations with possible injury
if not removed promptly. Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may
produce irritation and cause dermatitis. Exposure above TLV may cause
irritation of respiratory tract and eyes along with headaches, dizziness and
CNS effects. May be harmful if swallowed.

SECTION 6 – ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Since the isopropyl-alcohol solution is completely absorbed by the applicator
and the amount of isopropyl alcohol per applicator is small, the chance of a
significant spill occurring is small. In the event however, that a significant
amount of liquid is released, ventilate the area, especially low areas where
vapors may collect, and remove all sources of ignition. Cleanup personnel
need protection against liquid contact and vapor inhalation.
SECTION 7 – HANDLING AND STORAGE
Store in a clean, cool, ventilated area away from sources of ignition and
oxidizing agents. Handle and store in a manner suitable for an OSHA class IB
Flammable Liquid. Electrical services must meet applicable codes. Use
