Your OKI product has been carefully designed to give
you years of safe, reliable performance. As with all
electrical equipment, there are a few basic precau-
tions you should take to avoid hurting yourself or
damaging the product.
• Carefully read the provided setup and operating
instructions.
• Save all provided documentation for future
reference.
• Read and follow all warning and instruction labels
on the product itself.
• Unplug the product before you clean it. Use only a
damp cloth; do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
• Place your product on a firm, solid surface. If you
put it on something unsteady, it may fall and be
damaged. If you place it on a soft surface, such as
a rug, sofa, or cushion, the vents may be blocked,
causing the product to overheat.
• Protect your product from overheating. Make sure
no obstructions block the openings of the product.
Do not put the product on or near a heat source
(such as a radiator or heat register). Keep the
product out of direct sunlight.
• Always use this product in a well ventilated area.
Allow enough room around the product for
adequate ventilation and easy access to the paper
trays. If you put the product in any kind of
enclosure, make sure the enclosure is well
ventilated.
• Do not use your product near water. Do not spill
liquid of any kind into it.

• Do not connect this product to an uninterruptible
power supply (UPS). For further information
please contact Oki Data at 1-800-OKI-DATA.
• Your product has a grounded, three-prong plug as
a safety feature. This plug only fits into a
grounded outlet. If the plug does not fit, the outlet
may be an older, non-grounded type. Contact an
electrician to have the outlet replaced. Do not use
an adapter to defeat the grounding.
• Install the product near an easily accessed power
outlet.
• Avoid damaging the power cord. Do not put
anything on it or place it where it will be walked
on. If the cord becomes damaged or frayed,
replace it immediately.
• If you are using an extension cord or power strip
with the product, make sure that the total of the
amperes required by all the equipment on the
extension is less than the extension’s rating. The
total ratings of all equipment plugged into the
outlet should not exceed 15 amperes.
• Do not poke anything into the ventilation slots of
the product. You could get an electrical shock or
cause hazardous electrical arcing, which could
cause a fire.
• Aside from the routine maintenance described in
the documentation, do not try to service the
product yourself. Removing the cover may expose
you to shocks or other hazards.
• Do not make any adjustments other than those
outlined in the documentation. You may cause
damage that will require extensive repair work.
The provided documentation explains how to get
your product serviced by qualified Oki Data

Carcinogenicity
In 1996 the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a Group 2B carcinogen (possible human carcinogen). This
classification is given to chemicals for which there is inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal
evidence on which to base an opinion of carcinogenicity. The classification is based upon the development of
lung tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures to free carbon black at levels that induce particle
overload of the lung. Studies performed in animal models other than rats did not show any association
between carbon black and lung tumors. Moreover, a two-year cancer bioassay using a typical toner
preparation containing carbon black demonstrated no association between toner exposure and tumor
development in rats.
Chronic Effect
In a study in rats of chronic inhalation exposure to a typical toner, a mild to moderate degree of lung fibrosis
was observed in 92% of the rats in the high concentration (16 mg/m3) exposure group, and a minimal to
mild degree of fibrosis was noted in22% of the animals in the middle (4 mg/m3) exposure group, but no
pulmonary change was reported in the lowest (1 mg/m3) exposure group, the most relevant level to
potential human exposures.

Carcinogenicity
In 1996 the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a Group 2B carcinogen (possible human carcinogen). This
classification is given to chemicals for which there is inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal
evidence on which to base an opinion of carcinogenicity. The classification is based upon the development of
lung tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures to free carbon black at levels that induce particle
overload of the lung. Studies performed in animal models other than rats did not show any association
between carbon black and lung tumors. Moreover, a two-year cancer bioassay using a typical toner
preparation containing carbon black demonstrated no association between toner exposure and tumor
development in rats.
Chronic Effect
In a study in rats of chronic inhalation exposure to a typical toner, a mild to moderate degree of lung fibrosis
was observed in 92% of the rats in the high concentration (16 mg/m3) exposure group, and a minimal to
mild degree of fibrosis was noted in 22% of the animals in the middle (4 mg/m3) exposure group, but no
pulmonary change was reported in the lowest (1 mg/m3) exposure group, the most relevant level to
potential human exposures.
