INDEX (GENERAL)
GENERAL
MECHANICAL/ELECTRICAL
This copier assumes that components be replaced by the unit. No circuit dia-
grams or electrical component layout drawings therefore contain any of elec-
trical parts included in units.
In text, however, some of these electrical components are given for the sake
of explanation of mechanical operations of different units.

2. PRECAUTIONS FOR INSTALLATION
2-1. Installation Site
To ensure safety and utmost performance of the copier, the copier should NOT be used in
a place:
• Where it will be subjected to extremely high or low temperature or humidity.
• Where it will be subjected to sudden fluctuations in either temperature or humidity.
• Which is exposed to direct sunlight.
• Which is in the direct air stream of an air conditioner, heater or ventilator.
• Which has poor ventilation or is dusty.
• Which does not have a stable, level floor or where it will receive undue vibration.
• Which is near any kind of heating device.
• Which is near volatile flammables (thinner, gasoline, etc.).
• Where it may be splashed with water.
• Which puts the operator in the direct stream of exhaust from the copier.
• Where ammonia gas might be generated.
2-2. Power Source
• If any other electrical equipment is sourced from the same power outlet, make sure that
the capacity of the outlet is not exceeded.
• Use a power source with little voltage fluctuation.
• Never connect by means of a multiple socket any other appliances or machines to the
outlet being used for the copier.
• Ensure that the copier does not ride on the power cord or communications cable of other
electrical equipment, and that it does not become wedged into or underneath the mecha-
nism.
• Make the following checks at frequent intervals:
✽Is the power plug abnormally hot?
✽Are there any cracks or scrapes in the cord?
✽Has the power plug been inserted fully into the outlet?
✽Does something, including the copier itself, ride on the power cord?
Use an outlet with a capacity of 110/120/127 V, 15 A or more. 220-240 V, 10 A or more.
2-3. Grounding
• Always ground the copier to prevent receiving electrical shocks in the case of electrical
leakage.
• Connect the ground wire to the ground terminal of the outlet or a grounding contact which
complies with the local electrical standards.
• Never connect the grounding wire to a gas pipe, the ground wire for a telephone, light-
ning arrester, or a water pipe for fear of fire and electrical shock.

3. PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
3-1. To ensure that the copier is used in an optimum condition
• Never place a heavy object on the copier or subject the copier to shocks.
• Insert the power plug all the way into the outlet.
• Do not attempt to remove any panel or cover which is secured while the copier is making
copies.
• Do not turn OFF the copier while it is making copies.
• Provide good ventilation when making a large number of copies continuously.
• Never use flammable sprays near the copier.
• If the copier becomes inordinately hot or produces abnormal noise, turn it OFF and
unplug it.
• Do not turn ON the power switch at the same time when you plug the power cord into the
outlet.
• When unplugging the power cord, do not pull on the cord; hold the plug and pull it out.
• Do not bring any magnetized object near the copier.
• Do not place a vase or vessel containing water on the copier.
• Be sure to turn OFF the power switch at the end of the workday or upon power failure.
• Use care not to drop paper clips, staples, or other small pieces of metal into the copier.
3-2. Operating Environment
The operating environmental requirements of the copier are as follows.
• Temperature: 10 to 30 °C
• Humidity: 25 to 85 %
• Rate of temperature change: 10 °C/h
• Rate of humidity change: 20 %/h
3-3. Power Requirements
The power source voltage requirements are as follows.
• Voltage fluctuation: AC 110, 120, 220, 240 V
± 10 % (copying performance assured)
(127 V areas only; between -10 % and +6 %)
(paper feeding performance assured)
• Frequency fluctuation: 50/60 Hz ± 0.3 %
3-4. Note
• It is prohibited to copy paper and hard currencies, government securities, and municipal
bonds (even when they are stamped as “Sample”).
• For fear of infringement of copyright, it is also prohibited to copy copyrighted works,
including books, music, works of art, maps, drawings, motion pictures, and photos
except when the copy is to be used only personally.

4. HANDLING OF THE CONSUMABLES
Before using any consumables, always read the label on its container carefully.
• Paper can be easily damaged by dampness. To prevent absorption of moisture, store
paper, which has been removed from its wrapper but not loaded in the drawer, in a
sealed plastic bag in a cool, dark place.
• Keep consumables out of the reach of children.
• Do not touch the PC Drum with bare hands.
• The same sized paper is of two kinds, short grain and long grain. Short grain paper
should only be fed through the copier crosswise, long grain paper should only be fed
lengthwise.
• If your hands become soiled with toner, wash them with soap and water.
• Do not throw away any used consumables (PC Drum, starter, toner, etc.). They are to be
collected.
• Do not burn, bury in the ground, or throw into the water any consumables (PC Drum,
starter, toner, etc.).
• Do not store consumables in a place which:
✽Is hot and humid.
✽Is subject to direct sunlight.
✽Has an open flame nearby.
5. OTHER PRECAUTIONS
Use the following precautions when performing service jobs for a copier that uses a laser.
• When a service job needs to be performed in the laser beam path, such as when working
around the printerhead or PC Drum, be sure first to unplug the power cord of the copier
from the outlet.
• If the job requires that the power cord be left plugged in, observe the following precau-
tions.
1. Take off your watch, ring and any other reflective object and wear laser protective gog-
gles.
2. Keep users away from the job site.
3. Do not bring a highly reflective tool into the laser beam path during the service job.
