temperature components inside the machine which may result in a fire or electrical
shock.
Place the machine where children will not come in contact with the power cord and other cables or internal and electrical
parts. Failure to do so may result in unexpected accidents.
Do not use flammable sprays near this machine. If flammable substances come into contact with electrical parts inside this
machine, it may result in a fire or electrical shock.
When moving this machine, be sure to turn OFF the power of this machine and your computer, and then unplug the power
plug and interface cables. Failure to do so may damage the power cord or interface cables, resulting in a fire or electrical
shock.
When plugging or unplugging a USB cable when the power plug is plugged into an AC power outlet, do not touch the metal

Maintenance and Inspections
Clean this machine periodically. If dust accumulates, the machine may not operate properly. When cleaning, be sure to observe the
following. If a problem occurs during operation, see Troubleshooting. If the problem cannot be resolved or you feel the machine
requires an inspection, see When a Problem Cannot Be Solved.
Before cleaning, turn OFF the power and unplug the power plug from the AC power outlet. Failure to do so may result in a fire
or electrical shock.
Unplug the power plug periodically and clean with a dry cloth to remove dust and grime. Accumulated dust may absorb
humidity in the air and may result in a fire if it comes into contact with electricity.
Use a damp, well wrung-out cloth to clean the machine. Dampen cleaning cloths with water only. Do not use alcohol,
benzenes, paint thinners, or other flammable substances. Do not use tissue paper or paper towels. If these substances come
into contact with electrical parts inside the machine, they may generate static electricity or result in a fire or electrical shock.
Check the power cord and plug periodically for damage. Check the machine for rust, dents, scratches, cracks, or excessive
heat generation. Use of poorly-maintained equipment may result in a fire or electrical shock.
The inside of the machine has high-temperature and high-voltage components. Touching these components may result in
burns. Do not touch any part of the machine that is not indicated in the manual.
When loading paper or removing jammed documents or paper, be careful not to cut your hands with the edges of the paper.
IMPORTANT
When removing jammed paper or replacing toner cartridges, be careful not to get any toner on your hands or clothing. If toner
gets on your hands or clothing, wash them immediately with cold water.

Consumables
Do not dispose of used toner cartridges in open flames. Also, do not store toner cartridges or paper in a location exposed to
open flames. This may cause the toner to ignite, and result in burns or fire.
If you accidentally spill or scatter toner, carefully wipe up the loose toner with a damp, soft cloth and avoid inhaling any toner
dust. Do not use a vacuum cleaner that is not equipped with safety measures to prevent dust explosions to clean up loose
toner. Doing so may cause damage to the vacuum cleaner or result in a dust explosion due to static discharge.
Use caution not to inhale any toner. If you should inhale toner, consult a physician immediately.
Use caution so that toner does not get into your eyes or mouth. If toner should get into your eyes or mouth, immediately
wash with cold water and consult a physician.
Use caution so that toner does not come into contact with your skin. If it should, wash with soap and cold water. If there is
any irritation on your skin, consult a physician immediately.
Keep the toner cartridges and other consumables out of the reach of small children. If toner is ingested, consult a physician or
poison control center immediately.
Do not disassemble or modify the toner cartridge. Doing so may cause the toner to scatter.
Remove the sealing tape of the toner cartridge completely without using excessive force. Doing otherwise may cause the toner
to scatter.
IMPORTANT
Handling the toner cartridge
Be sure to hold the toner cartridge using the handle and do not touch the drum surface. ( ).
