XEROX DOCUPRINT NPS GUIDE TO CONFIGURING AND MANAGING THE SYSTEM iii
Laser safety
!Warning: Adjustments, use of controls, or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein may result in
hazardous light exposure.
The Xerox DocuPrint printers are certified to comply with the
performance standards of the U.S. Department of Health, Education,
and Welfare for Class 1 laser products. Class 1 laser products do not
emit hazardous radiation. The DocuPrint printers do not emit
hazardous radiation because the laser beam is completely enclosed
during all modes of customer operation.
The laser danger labels on the system are for Xerox service
representatives and are on or near panels or shields that must be
removed with a tool. DO NOT REMOVE LABELED PANELS OR
PANELS NEAR LABELS. ONLY XEROX SERVICE
REPRESENTATIVES HAVE ACCESS TO THESE PANELS.
