1Safety Instructions
Laser Printer Precautions
This printer uses laser technology. The following precautions
apply whenever you use the laser printer. Even if you are familiar
with other types of printers, be sure to follow these precautions
carefully to ensure safe, efficient operation.
❏Because the printer weighs approximately 70 kg (154 lb), you
should not lift or carry it by yourself. Four people should carry
it, lifting it by the correct positions. Refer to the instructions
in the Unpacking Guide.
❏Be careful not to touch the fuser, which is marked CAUTION!
HIGH TEMPERATURE, or the surrounding areas. If the
printer has been in use, the fuser and the surrounding areas
may be very hot.
❏Avoid touching the components inside the printer unless
instructed to do so in this guide.
CAUTION! HIGH TEMPERATURE

❏Never force the printer’s components into place. Although the
printer is designed to be sturdy, rough handling can damage
it.
❏When handling the toner cartridges, always place them on a
clean, smooth surface.
❏Do not attempt to modify or take apart the toner cartridge. It
cannot be refilled.
❏Try not to touch the toner and avoid all contact with your eyes.
❏Do not dispose of the used toner cartridges, fuser oil roll, or
waste toner collector in fire, as they can explode and cause
injury. Dispose of them according to local regulations.
❏Do not use a toner cartridge for at least one hour after moving
it from a cool to a warm environment.
❏Keep the fuser oil roll horizontal at all times. Do not tilt it or
lean it against something, as it can cause oil leakage and
reduce print quality.
❏When removing the photoconductor unit, avoid exposing it
to room light any longer than necessary. The unit contains a
light-sensitive drum, which is the green cylinder that can be
seen through the openings to the unit. Exposure to light can
damage the drum, causing dark or light areas to appear on
the printed page and reducing the service life of the drum. If
you need to keep the unit out of the printer for long periods,
cover it with an opaque cloth.
