Please read the following instructions carefully before operating the WorkCentre Pro 580 and refer to them as needed to ensure the continued safe operation of your WorkCentre Pro.
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on, or supplied with, the product.
Symbology:
W
ARNING
Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
:
Unplug the WorkCentre Pro 580 from the wall outlet before cleaning. Always use materials specifically designated for this system. Use of other materials may result in poor performance and could create a hazardous situation.
Do not use aerosol cleaners. Follow the instructions in this Users Guide for proper cleaning methods. Use supplies or cleaning materials only as directed. Keep all supplies and materials out of reach of children.
Do not use the WorkCentre Pro 580 near water, wet locations, or outdoors.
Do not place the WorkCentre Pro 580 on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The WorkCentre Pro 580 may fall, causing personal injury or serious damage to the machine.
This product is equipped with a grounding-type plug. This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a

1.5
safety feature. To avoid the risk of electric shock, contact your electrician to replace the receptacle if you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet. Never use an adapter plug to connect the system to a power source receptacle that lacks a ground connection terminal.
The WorkCentre Pro 580 should be operated from the type of power source indicated on the label. If you are not sure of the type of power available, consult your local power company.
Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate the WorkCentre Pro 580 where persons will step on the cord.
The power supply cord is the disconnect device for this equipment. Ensure that the WorkCentre Pro 580 is installed near an outlet and is easily accessible.
Your machine is equipped with an energy saving device to conserve power when the machine is not in use. The machine may be left on continuously.
Slots and openings in the cabinet and in the back and bottom of the system are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the WorkCentre Pro 580 and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The WorkCentre Pro 580 should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. The WorkCentre Pro 580 should not be placed in a built-in installation unless proper ventilation is provided.
1.6
Never push objects of any kind into the slots of the WorkCentre Pro 580, as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts which could result in a fire or electric shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind on the WorkCentre Pro 580.
Never remove covers or guards that require a tool for removal. There are no casual operator serviceable areas within the covers of the WorkCentre Pro 580.
Never defeat interlock switches. This machine is designed to restrict operator access to unsafe areas. Covers, guards, and interlock switches are provided to ensure that the machine will not operate with covers opened.
Getting Started
Use of an extension cord with the WorkCentre Pro 580 is not recommended or authorized.
Avoid direct viewing of the document lights. The lamps are bright and, while not harmful, they may cause an annoying afterimage. Always keep the document cover closed during operation and storage.
Avoid exposing the Laser Printer Drum Cartridge to light for extended periods of time.
Do not touch the green photoreceptor. Scratches or smudges that appear on the photoreceptor will result in poor copy quality and may shorten the service life.
Do not put your hands into the fuser area. The fuser is extremely hot and severe burns can result from contact.
Ozone: This product produces ozone during normal operation. The ozone produced is dependent on copy volume and is heavier than air. If the WorkCentre Pro 580 is installed as specified in the Xerox installation procedures, ozone output levels meet safe limits.
If you need any additional safety information concerning the WorkCentre Pro 580 or Xerox supplied materials, you may call the following toll-free number in the United States:
