Legal and Safety
Information
FCC statement (for users in the United States)
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions:
• This device may not cause harmful interference
• This device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
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. These 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.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Shielded circular cable should be used for interfacing with the computer.
Precautions for Use
Any modification without prior permission may cause harmful interference.
If any modification/change is introduced to this equipment without prior
permission, the manufacturer cannot guarantee compliance with FCC
rules. To use equipment which does not comply with FCC rules is
prohibited.

Interface connectors
IMPORTANT: Ensure the printer is powered off before connecting or
disconnecting an interface cable to the printer.
IMPORTANT: For protection against static discharge which may be
applied to the printer's internal electronics through the interface
connector(s), keep any interface connector which is not in use capped
using the protective cap supplied.
NOTE: Use shielded interface cable.
Safety information
Laser safety
This printer is certified as a Class 1 laser product under the U.S.
Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Radiation
Performance Standard according to Radiation Control for Health and
Safety Act of 1968. This means that the printer does not produce
hazardous laser radiation. Since radiation emitted inside the printer is
completely confined within protective housings and external covers, the
laser beam cannot escape from the printer during any phase of user
operation.
Laser notice
This printer is certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS
21 CFR, Chapter I, Subchapter for Class I (1) laser products, and
elsewhere is certified as a Class I laser product conforming to the
requirements of IEC 825.
DANGER: CLASS 3B INVISIBLE LASER RADIATION WHEN
OPEN. AVOID DIRECT EXPOSURE TO BEAM.
CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation
exposure.

Caution Labels
CDRH Regulations
The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration implemented regulations for laser products on
August 2, 1976. These regulations apply to laser products manufactured
after August 1, 1976. Compliance is mandatory for products marketed in
the United States. A label indicating compliance with the CDRH regulations
must be attached to laser products marketed in the United States.
NOTE: Do not remove these labels.

Ozone Concentration
The printers generate ozone gas (O3) which may concentrate in the place
of installation and cause an unpleasant smell. To minimize concentration
of ozone gas to less than 0.1 ppm, we recommend the printer is not located
in a confined area where ventilation may be blocked.
