Overnight Exchange
4 Available in the United States and Canada
If you choose to use our Overnight Exchange service,
call 1-800-OKIDATA (1-800-654-3282): our trained
personnel will try to solve your problem over the phone.
If they determine that your printer hardware is defective,
an exchange printer will be shipped to you via air
express. Have your credit card available as our
representative will be asking for this information. You
will receive the exchange printer the next business day—
or no later than the second business day.
Return the original printer to Okidata by using the same
packaging materials you received with the exchange
printer. The printer to be returned must be made
available for pickup by Okidata’s representative within 2
business days of your receipt of the exchange printer:
failure to do so may result in your being charged the full
price of the exchange unit . Before you ship the printer,
remove the image drum and toner cartridge to prevent
damage to the printer during shipment: failure to do so
may result in a fee for cleaning/repairs which will be
charged to your account.
When Overnight Exchange is used, the returned machine
becomes the property of Okidata. Exchange machines
may be new or repaired, at the option of Okidata: the
exchange machine becomes the property of the customer
when the returned machine has been picked up by

Your Okidata printer has been carefully designed to give
you years of safe, reliable performance. As with all
electrical equipment, however, there are a few basic
precautions you should take to avoid hurting yourself or
damaging the printer:
• Read the setup instructions in the Quick Setup guide
carefully. Be sure to save it for future reference.
• Read and follow all warning and instruction labels on
the printer itself.
• Unplug the printer before you clean it. Use only a
damp cloth; do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
• Place your printer 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
bed, the vents may be blocked, causing the printer to
overheat.
• To protect your printer from overheating, make sure
all openings on the printer are not blocked. Don’t put
the printer on or near a heat source, such as a radiator
or heat register. Keep it out of direct sunlight. Allow
enough room around the printer for adequate
ventilation and easy access to the paper trays.
• Do not use your printer near water, or spill liquid of
any kind into it.
• Be certain that your power source matches the rating
listed on the back of the printer. If you’re not sure,
check with your dealer or with your local power
company.
• Your printer has a grounded, 3-prong plug as a safety
feature, and it will only fit into a grounded outlet. If
you can’t plug it in, chances are you have an older,
non-grounded outlet; contact an electrician to have the
outlet replaced. Do not use an adapter to defeat the
grounding.
Safety Instructions

E-13
• The printer must be installed near a power outlet
which remains easily accessible.
• To avoid damaging the power cord, don’t 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 printer, 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 on the
printer; you could get a shock or cause a fire.
• Aside from the routine maintenance described in the
online manual, don’t try to service the printer
yourself; opening the cover may expose you to shocks
or other hazards.
• Do not make any adjustments other than those
outlined in the online manual: you may cause damage
requiring extensive repair work. See the online
manual for information on how to get your printer
serviced by qualified OKIDATA technicians, or call
1-800-OKIDATA (1-800-654-3282) for the location
of your nearest service center.
If anything happens that indicates that your printer is not
working properly or has been damaged, unplug it
immediately and follow the procedures in the online
manual for having your printer serviced.
These are some of the things to look for:
• The power cord or plug is frayed or damaged.
• Liquid has been spilled into the printer, or it has been
exposed to water.
• The printer has been dropped, or the cabinet is
damaged.
