The Electricity at Work Regulation (in England and Wales ) UK ONLY

Electricity at Work Regulations:

The Electrici ty at Work Regulati on 1989 came into f orce in England and Wales on th e 1 Apr il 1990 . Thi s 1989 Regulation places a duty on all employers and sel f-empl oyed pers ons to ensu re the ele ctri cal system in the ir premise s are constru cted, mainta ined and operat ed in such a manner as to prevent, so far as reasonably practical, danger. This includes ensuring all electrical equipment connected to such electrical systems are safely constructed, maintained and operated.

All Xerox equipment have been designed to exacting safety standards . They have all underg one a variety of st ringent safe ty tests including earth bond, insulation resistance and electrical strength tests. Xerox manufacturing plants have been awarded ISO 9000 quality certification and are subject to regular audits by the British Standards Institution or equivalent national standards body.

Xerox equipment which has been properly and regularly serviced and maintaine d should not have to und ergo additional sp ecific safety tests pursuant to the 1989 Regulation. Customers wishing to complete s afety testing s hould contact Xerox (s ee page 1 ) for a dvice prior to any test implementation.

Xerox equipment should, however, be properly and regularly serviced and maintained at all times.

QUESTION: What is the Electricity at Work Regulation? ANSWER: The Electricity at Work Regulation 1989 came into

force in England and Wales on the 1 April 1990. This 1989 Regulation places a duty on all employers and self-employed persons to ensure the electrical systems in their premises are constructed, maintained and operated in such a manner as to prevent, so far as reasonably practicable, danger. This includes ensuring all elect rical pro ducts connect ed to such elec trical sys tems are safe ly constructed, maintained and operated.

QUESTION: Does Xerox comply with the Electricity at Work Regulation?

ANSWER: The regulation places a duty on all employers and self-employed persons to ensure the electric al systems in their premises are, effectively safe.

The regulation does not impose on, amongst others, manufacturers or suppli ers of such electrica l systems. H owever, r est assure d that all Xerox equipment which Xerox and its authorised distributors

vi Xerox Document Centre System Administration Guide

supplies to customers, conform with all the relevant safety legislation and standards.

QUESTION: Is Xerox equipment safe? ANSWER: All Xerox equipment supplied by Xerox and their

authorise d distrib utors conform to all re levant safety leg islati on and standards.

QUESTION: Is the Xerox equipment in my premises safe? ANSWER: All Xerox equipment supplied by Xerox and its

authorise d distrib utors conform to all re levant safety leg islati on and standards. However, like all electrical equipment, they have to be regularly serviced and maintained by competent persons.

Xerox Customer Service Engineers ensure Xerox equipment is serviced and maintained to exacting Xerox safety standards. If you would like your Xerox equipment to be serviced and maintained to such high standards, please contact your local Xerox Customer Service Organisation. They will be pleased to assist you.

QUESTION: Does the Xerox equipment in my premises comply with the Electricity at Work Regulations?

ANSWER: All employers and self-employed persons must ensure that the electrical systems in their premises are safe. This will include ensuring Xerox equipment in such premises is safe.

Xerox Product Safety functi on has pr epare d a guide whi ch cont ains a list of tests which may be completed by your Xerox Customer Service Organisation. THESE TESTS MUST BE CARRIED OUT ONLY BY PERSONS WHO POSSESS THE RELEVANT SKILL, KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE TO CARRY OUT SUCH TESTS.

Please conta ct the Xerox Custom er Service Organi sation fo r further information.

THE USE OF INAPPROPRIATE TEST PROCEDURES AND TEST EQUIPMENT MAY PROVIDE MISLEADING RESULTS AND MAY CAUSE DEATH, PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY.

2. How to Connect to Ethernet or Token Ring Networks

Before You Connect to a 100BaseT Ethernet Network

The Document Centre Ethernet Interface has speed settings of

10Mbps (10 Megabits per seco nd), 100M bps (1 00 Me gabi ts per second) and Auto (AutoSensing). If your network has hubs or

concentrators that have Auto-Sensing enabled, it is possible that if the Document Cen tre is set to Auto, the hub/concentrator will not arbitrate to the correct speed.

2. How to Connect to

Ethernet or Token

Ethernet or Token Ring

Before you connect the printer to your network, perform the procedure on the next page entitled How to set the Ethernet

Speed.

Xerox Document Centre System Administration Guide Page 2 - 1

How to set the Ethernet Speed

1. Enter the Tools pathway

Addresses and WINS

Your Document Centre printer can be connected to a variety of networks that use the TCP/IP protocol. You may either choose to allow the device to retrieve a dynamic address or yo u may se le ct to enter one manually. This section contains procedures for both of these methods. Determine which method will be used for your network and follow the steps of the appropriate procedure.

Dynamic Addressing (DHCP, BOOT P, or RARP)

If your printer is equipped with a Token Ring interface, prior to connecting your printer to your network, use the section of this document entitled Token Ring Interface Network Connection to set the Ring Speed and Source Routing settings for your environment. Then return to this procedure and follow the instructions

The Document Centre supports two methods of Dynamic Addressing:

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) or BOOTP

RARP (Reverse Address Resolution Protocol)

The TCP/IP address is assigned automatically by a DHCP server. Follow the steps below:

NOTE

By default, DHCP is enabled on the Document Centre. This procedure will show you how to disable DHCP (or enable it if it was disabled) and set your TCP/IP information using BOOTP or RARP.

DHCP/BOOTP/RARP servers vary in the information that they return to the device requestin g service. Consult the documen tation supplied with your DHCP or RARP server software to verify what TCP/IP information it can supply. Your Document Centre can retrieve the following values from DHCP, BOOTP, and RARP servers:

TCP/IP Address Host Name (DHCP Only) Subnet Mask Gateway TCP/IP Address Broadcast Address (DHCP only) Domain Name (DHCP only) Preferred and Alternate DNS Server (DHCP only) Wins Server (DHCP only)
