WARNINGS:
Do not push objects into slots or openings on the printer. Touching a voltage point or
shorting out a part could result in fire or electrical shock.
Do not remove the covers or guards that are fastened with screws unless you are
installing optional equipment and are instructed to do so. Turn off the printer when
performing these installations. Disconnect the power cord when removing 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.
Electrical Safety
General Guidelines
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. The printer emits smoke, or the surface is unusually hot. The printer emits unusual noise or odors. The printer causes a circuit breaker, fuse, or other safety device to activate.
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 Cord
Use the power cord supplied with your printer. Plug the power cord directly into a properly grounded electrical outlet. Make sure that 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.

Safety
WARNING: Avoid the potential of electrical shock by ensuring that the printer is properly grounded.
Electrical products can be hazardous if misused.
Only use an extension cord or power strip designed to handle the electrical current capacity of
the printer.
Verify that the printer is plugged into an outlet that is providing the correct voltage and power.
Review the electrical specification of the printer with an electrician if necessary.
Do not place the printer in an area where people can step on the power cord. Do not place objects on the power cord. Replace the power cord if it becomes frayed or worn. Do not unplug or plug the power cord while the printer is turned on. To avoid electrical shock and damage to the cord, grasp the plug when unplugging the power cord.
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.

Safety
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 helps to ensure the continued, safe operation of
your printer.
Operational Guidelines
Do not remove the paper source tray that you selected in either the print driver or control panel while
the printer is printing.
Do not open the doors when the printer is printing. Do not move the printer when it is printing. Keep hands, hair, neckties, and so on away from the exit and feed rollers. Covers, which require tools for removal, protect the hazard areas within the printer. Do not remove
the protective covers.
Ozone Release
This printer produces ozone during normal operation. The amount of ozone produced is dependent on
print volume. Ozone is heavier than air and is not produced in amounts large enough to harm anyone.
Install the printer in a well-ventilated room.
Place the printer on a level, solid, non-vibrating surface with adequate strength to hold its weight.
The base printer weight without any packaging materials is approximately 4.6 kg (10.1 lb.).
Do not block or cover the slots or openings on the printer. These openings are provided for
ventilation and to prevent overheating of the printer.
Place the printer in an area where there is adequate space for operation and servicing. Place the printer in a dust-free area. Do not store or operate the printer in an extremely hot, cold, or humid environment. Do not place the printer near a heat source.

CAUTION: Use of non-Xerox® supplies is not recommended. The Xerox® Warranty, Service
Agreement, and Total Satisfaction Guarantee do not cover damage, malfunction, or degradation of
performance caused by use of non-Xerox® supplies, or the use of Xerox® supplies not specified for this
printer. The Total Satisfaction Guarantee is available in the United States and Canada. Coverage
could vary outside these areas. Please contact your Xerox representative for details.
Do not place the printer in direct sunlight to avoid exposure to light-sensitive components. Do not place the printer where it is directly exposed to the cold air flow from an air
conditioning system.
Do not place the printer in locations susceptible to vibrations. For optimum performance, use the printer at elevations below 3100 m (10,170 ft.).
Printer Supplies
Use the supplies designed for your printer. The use of unsuitable materials can cause poor
performance and a possible safety hazard.
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on, or supplied with, the product, options, and supplies. Store all consumable supplies in accordance with the instructions given on the package or container. Keep all consumable supplies away from the reach of children. Never throw toner cartridges into an open flame. When handling toner cartridges, avoid skin or eye contact. Eye contact can cause irritation and
inflammation. Do not attempt to disassemble the cartridge, which can increase the risk of skin or
eye contact.

Your printer is designed to use various paper and other media types. Follow the guidelines in this section
to ensure the best print quality and to avoid jams.
For best results, use Xerox® paper and media recommended for your printer.

CAUTION: The Xerox® Warranty, Service Agreement, or Xerox® Total Satisfaction Guarantee does not
cover damage caused by using unsupported paper or specialty media. The Xerox® Total Satisfaction
Guarantee is available in the United States and Canada. Coverage could vary outside these areas.
Please contact your local representative for details.
Use only paper envelopes. Print envelopes 1-sided only. Do not overfill the paper trays. Do not load paper above the maximum fill line in the tray. Adjust the paper guides to fit the paper size. Fan paper before loading it in the paper tray. If excessive jams occur, use paper or other approved media from a new package.
Paper That Can Damage Your Printer
Some paper and other media types can cause poor output quality, increased paper jams, or damage your
printer. Do not use the following:
Rough or porous paper Inkjet paper Non-laser glossy or coated paper Paper that has been photocopied Paper that has been folded or wrinkled Paper with cutouts or perforations Stapled paper Envelopes with windows, metal clasps, side seams, or adhesives with release strips Padded envelopes Plastic media
Paper Storage Guidelines
Storing your paper and other media properly contributes to optimum print quality.
Store paper in dark, cool, relatively dry locations. Most paper is susceptible to damage from
ultraviolet and visible light. Ultraviolet light, from the sun and fluorescent bulbs, is particularly
damaging to paper.
Reduce the exposure of paper to strong lights for long periods of time. Maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity. Avoid storing paper in attics, kitchens, garages, or basements. These spaces are more likely to
collect moisture.
Store paper flat, either on pallets, cartons, shelves, or in cabinets. Avoid having food or drinks in the area where paper is stored or handled. Do not open sealed packages of paper until you are ready to load them into the printer. Leave stored
paper in the original packaging. The paper wrapper protects the paper from moisture loss or gain.
Some special media is packaged inside resealable plastic bags. Store the media inside the bag until
you are ready to use it. Keep unused media in the bag and reseal it for protection.
