Safety Information
Laser Safety
This is a page printer which operates by means of a laser. Thereis nopossibility of
danger from the laser, provided the printer is operated according to the instructions
in this manual.
Since radiation emitted by the laser is completely confined within protective hous-
ing, the laser beam cannot escape from the machine during any phase of user
operation.
Internal Laser Radiation
Maximum RadiationPower:
0.6 mW at laser aperture of the print head unit
Wavelength:
770–810 nm
This product employs Class IIIb Laser Diode that emits an invisible laser beam.
Laser Diode and Scanning Polygon Mirror are incorporated in the print head unit.
The print head unit is not a field service item.
Therefore, the print head unit should not be opened under any circumstance.
Laser Safety
This printer is certified as a Class ILaser product under the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services (DHHS) RadiationPerformance Standard according
to the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968. This means that the
printer does not produce hazardous laser radiation.

English
CDRH Regulations
The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of theU.S. Food and
Drug Administration implemented regulations for laser products on August 2, 1976.
Compliance is mandatory for products marketed in the United States. The label
shown below indicates compliance with the CDRH regulations and must be
attached to laser products marketed in the United States.

• This device must be used with shielded interface (Parallel) cable.
The use of non-shielded cable is likely to result in interference with radio commu-
nications and is prohibited under 89/336/EEC rules.
Ozone Release
During printer operation, a small quantity of ozone is released. This amount is not
large enough to harm anyone adversely. However, be sure the room where the
machine is being used has adequate ventilation, especially if you are printing a
high volume of materials, or if the machine is being used continuously over a long
period.

Installation Precautions
Note thefollowing important precautions when selecting a location for the printer
and when connecting it to a power source.
Selecting a Location for the Printer
A proper location helps to ensure that your printer provides you with the long ser-
vice life for which it is designed. Double-check to make sure that the location you
select has the following characteristics.
• Choose a location that is well-ventilated.
• Make sure there is no chance of ammonia or other organic gasses being gener-
ated in the area.
• The power outlet you plan to connect to for power should be nearby and unob-
structed.
• Make sure that the printer is not exposed to direct sunlight.
• Avoid areas in the direct airflow of air conditioners, heaters, or ventilators, and
areas subjected to temperature and humidity extremes.
• Choose a sturdy, level surface where the printer will not be exposed to strong
vibration.
• Keep the printer away from any objects that might block its heat vents.
• Do not locate the printer near curtains or other combustible objects.
• Choose an area where there is no possibility of the printer being splashed with
water or other liquids.
• Make sure that the surrounding area is clean, dry, and free of dust.
Power Source
The following are the power source requirements for this printer.
Power supply:
220–240 V at 50–60 Hz
Voltage fluctuation:
220–240 V ±10%
Frequency fluctuation:
Within ±3 Hz

En-14
English
Grounding
Always ground the printer to guard against the danger of electrical shock. To
ground the printer, connect the grounding wire to the ground terminal of the electri-
cal outletyou are plugging in to or to a grounding contact that complies with local
electrical standards in your area.
Note
• Use a power source with minimal voltage and frequency fluctuation.
• Only use an outlet that is rated for the voltage capacity specified for this printer.
• Be sure to plug the power cord all the way into the outlet. The outlet should be located
near the printer and be easily accessible so you can unplug the power cord immedi-
ately should any problem occur.
• Make sure the outlet you use is visible, and not hidden behind the printer or any other
object.
• If any other electrical equipment is plugged into the same outlet, make sure that the
capacity of the outlet is not exceeded.
• If you use an extension cord, make sure its capacity is greater than the power con-
sumption of the printer. Using an extension cord with a lower capacity creates the dan-
ger of fire.
• Never use a multiple socket to connect other appliances or machines to the same out-
let being used to power the printer.
Note
• Never connect the grounding wire to a gas pipe, the grounding wire for a telephone, or
to a water pipe.

Be sure to provide space around the printer as indicated below, to ensure easier
printer operation, paper and toner replacement, and maintenance.

Operational Precautions
Note the following important precautions whenever using the printer.
Operating Environmen
The following describes the operating environment required when using the
printer.
Temperature:
10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F) with fluctuation of 10°C (18°F) per hour
Humidity:
15% to 85% with fluctuation of 20% per hour
Printer
The following describes precautions for using theprinter.
• Never turn the printer off or open any of its covers during a print operation.
• Never place flammable gasses, liquids or objects that generate magnetic forces
near the printer
• When unplugging the power cord, always grasp the plug and never pull on the
cord. A damaged cord creates the danger of fire or electrical shock.
• Never touch the power cord when your hands are wet. Doing so creates the dan-
ger of electrical shock.
• Always unplug the power cord before moving the printer. Failure to do so can
damage the power cord, creating the danger of fire or electrical shock.
• Always unplug the power cord if you do not plan to use the printer for a long time.
• Never try to remove any secured panel or cover.The interior of the printer con-
tains high-voltage circuitry which creates the danger of electrical shock when
exposed.
• Never try to modify the printer. Doing so creates the danger of fire or electrical
shock.
• Never place any heavy objects on the power cord, pull on it or bend it. Doing so
creates the danger of fire or electrical shock.
• Always make sure the printer is not placed on the electrical cord or the communi-
cations cables of any other electrical equipment. Also make sure that cords and
cables do not get into the printer’s mechanism. Any of these conditions create
the danger of malfunction and fire.
