equipment does not have a gas–sealed electronics enclosure and could ignite any
flammable or explosive gases present in its environment.
!CAUTION
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. Those limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Introduction
Introducing the Kodak DryView 8700 and 8500 Laser Imagers
The Kodak DryView 8700 Laser Imager (8700 Laser Imager) and the Kodak
DryView 8500 Laser Imager (8500 Laser Imager) are continuous–tone laser
imagers with an integrated photothermographic film developer.
The two imagers are nearly identical except for film size. The 8700 Laser Imager
uses only 14”x 17”(35 x 43 cm) Kodak DryView Laser Imaging Film (DryView film).
The 8500 Laser Imager also uses DryView film but accepts only 11 in. x 14 in.
(28 x 35 cm) film sheets.
Both film sizes are available in clear or blue base, packaged in 125-sheet Kodak
Instant Daylight Load Film Cartridges.
The 8700/8500 Laser Imagers are both available in three different configurations,
with two different remote keypads, described later in this manual.
