General and Operational Overview

Safety

WARNING: Do not push objects (including paper clips or staples) into slots or openings on the printer. Making contact with a voltage point or shorting out a part could result in fire or electrical shock.

WARNING: 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. Disconnect the power cord when removing the covers and guards for installing optional equipment. Except for user-installable options, there are no parts that you can maintain or service behind these covers.

The following are hazards to your safety:

The power cord is damaged or frayed.

Liquid is spilled into the printer.

The printer is exposed to water.

If any of these conditions occur, do the following:

1.Turn Off the printer immediately.

2.Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.

3.Call an authorized service representative.

Power Safety Precautions

Power Source

For 115 VAC printers, do not apply more than 127 volts RMS between the supply conductors or between either supply conductor and ground. For 230 VAC printers, do not apply more than 254 volts RMS between the supply conductors or between either supply conductor and ground. Use only the specified power cord and connector. This manual assumes that the reader is a qualified service technician.

Plug the three-wire power cord (with grounding prong) into a grounded AC outlet only. If necessary, contact a licensed electrician to install a properly grounded outlet. If the product loses its ground connection, contact with conductive parts may cause an electrical shock. A protective ground connection by way of the grounding conductor in the power cord is essential for safe operation.

Verify direct connection to AC outlet - The printer requires most of the current in a 15 Amp circuit or a direct connection to 20 Amp wall outlet. Never use power strips, surge protectors, extension cords or Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS).

ColorQube 8700/8900 v1/v2/v3 Service Manual

General and Operational Overview

Check AC Voltage Drop with a volt-meter at the wall outlet in use as the printer warms up and heaters turn On. On 120 VAC or 240 VAC, 1% drop is normal; 2% or more may represent an overloaded circuit and will result in Printhead Tilt errors or other engine faults. It is recommended this be done immediately after repair, or when coming out of Power Save Mode to observe effect of maximum current draw.

Note: Before plugging in Xerox equipment, please check AC outlet for correct Hot/ Neutral/ Ground orientation by measuring approximately 110-120 or 220-240 Volts AC from Hot (short slot) to Ground, as well as Hot to Neutral (long slot).

If an AC Power Filter must be used to prevent electrical noise from interfering with internal printer communications, Xerox recommends the use of 142E01500 (available for customers to order at 800-828-5881) or a similar high-current Noise Filter.

Disconnecting Power

WARNING: Turning the power Off using the power switch does not completely de-energize the printer. You must also disconnect the power cord from the printer’s Alternating Current (AC) inlet. Disconnect the power cord by pulling the plug, not the cord.

Disconnect the power cord in the following cases:

if the power cord or plug is frayed or otherwise damaged,

if any liquid or foreign material is spilled into the printer,

if the printer is exposed to any excess moisture,

if the printer is dropped or damaged,

if you suspect that the printer needs cleaning, servicing or repair,

whenever you clean the product.

Power Cord

Use the power cord supplied with the printer.

Plug the power cord directly into a properly grounded electrical outlet. Make sure each end of the cord is securely connected. If you do not know if an outlet is grounded, ask an electrician to check the outlet.

Do not use a ground adapter plug to connect the printer to an electrical outlet that does not have a ground connection terminal.

WARNING: Avoid the potential of electrical shock by ensuring that the printer is properly grounded. Electrical printers may be hazardous if misused.

Do not use an extension cord, power strip, or surge protector.

Verify that the printer is plugged into an outlet that is capable of providing the correct voltage and power. Review the printer’s electrical specification with an electrician if necessary.

Do not place the printer in an area where people might step on the power cord.

Do not place objects on the power cord.

General and Operational Overview

The power cord is attached to the printer as a plug-in device on the back of the printer. If it is necessary to disconnect all electrical power from the printer, disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.

Telephone Line Cord

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 American Wire Gauge (AWG) or larger telecommunication line cord.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions

Some semiconductor components, and the respective sub-assemblies that contain them, are vulnerable to damage by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). These components include Integrated Circuits (ICs), Large-Scale Integrated circuits (LSIs), field-effect transistors, and other semiconductor chip components. The following techniques will reduce the occurrence of component damage caused by static electricity.

Be sure the power is Off to the chassis or circuit board, and observe all other safety precautions.

Immediately before handling any semiconductor components assemblies, drain the electrostatic charge from your body. This can be accomplished by touching an earth ground source or by wearing a wrist strap device connected to an earth ground source. Wearing a wrist strap will also prevent accumulation of additional bodily static charges. Be sure to remove the wrist strap before applying power to the unit under test to avoid potential shock.

After removing a static sensitive assembly from its anti-static bag, place it on a grounded conductive surface. If the anti-static bag is conductive, you may ground the bag and use it as a conductive surface.

Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage some devices.

Do not remove a replacement component or electrical sub-assembly from its protective package until you are ready to install it.

Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement device, touch the protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.

Minimize body motions when handling unpacked replacement devices. Motion such as your clothes brushing together, or lifting a foot from a carpeted floor can generate enough static electricity to damage an electro-statically sensitive device.

Handle ICs and Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memories (EPROMs) carefully to avoid bending pins.

Pay attention to the direction of parts when mounting or inserting them on the Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs).

European Union Lot 4 Imaging Equipment Agreement Environmental

Information

Environmental Information Providing Environmental Solutions and Reducing Cost

Introduction

The following information has been developed to assist users and has been issued in relation to the European Union (EU) Energy Related Products Directive, specifically the Lot 4 study on Imaging Equipment. This requires manufacturers to improve environmental performance of in scope products and supports the EU action plan on energy efficiency.

In scope products are Household and Office equipment that meet the following criteria.

Standard monochrome format products with a maximum speed less than 66 A4 images per minute

Standard color format products with a maximum speed less than 51 A4 images per minute

Environmental Benefits of Duplex Printing

Most Xerox® products have duplex printing, also known as 2-sided printing, capability. This enables you to print on both sides of the paper automatically, and therefore helps to reduce the use of valuable resources by reducing your paper consumption. The Lot 4 Imaging Equipment agreement requires that on models greater than or equal to 40 ppm color or greater than or equal to 45 ppm monochrome the duplex function has been auto enabled, during the setup and driver installation. Some Xerox® models below these speed bands may also be enabled with 2-sided printing settings defaulted on at the time of install. Continuing to use the duplex function will reduce the environmental impact of your work.

1-15

General and Operational Overview

However, should you require simplex/ 1-sided printing, you may change the print settings in the print driver.

Paper Types

This product can be used to print on both recycled and virgin paper, approved to an environmental stewardship scheme, which complies with EN12281 or a similar quality standard. Lighter weight paper (60 g/m²), which contains less raw material and thus save resources per print, may be used in certain applications. We encourage you to check if this is suitable for your printing needs.

Power Consumption and Activation Time

The amount of electricity a product consumes depends on the way the device is used. This product is designed and configured to enable you to reduce your electricity costs. After the last print, it switches to Ready Mode. In this mode, it can print again immediately as needed. If the product is not used for a period of time, the device switches to Power Saver Mode. In this mode, only essential functions remain active in order to enable reduced product power consumption.

Upon exiting from Power Saver Mode, the first print takes slightly longer than in Ready Mode. This delay is the result of the system leaving Energy Saver mode and is typical of most imaging products on the market.

There is something to consider if you wish to set a longer Activation Time or would like to deactivate the Energy Saver Mode completely. The device can switch to a lower energy level only after a longer period of time or not at all.
