Precautions for Use

Q

Cautions when Using the Printer

WARNING

• DO NOT place metallic objects or containers with wa-

ter (flower vases, flower pots, cups, etc.) on or near

the printer. This type of situation presents a danger of

fire or electrical shock should they fall inside.

............

• DO NOT remove any of the covers from the printer as

there is a danger of electrical shock from high voltage

parts inside the printer.

...............................................

• DO NOT damage, break or attempt to repair the

power cord. DO NOT place heavy objects on the cord,

pull it, bend it unnecessarily or cause any other type of

damage.

These types of situations present a danger of fire or

electrical shock.

..........................................................

• NEVER attempt to repair or disassemble the printer or

its parts as there is a danger of fire, electrical shock or

damage to the laser. If the laser beam escapes, there

is a danger of it causing blindness.

............................

• If the printer becomes excessively hot, smoke appears

from the printer, there is an odd smell, or any other ab-

normal situation occurs, there is a danger of fire or

electrical shock. Turn the power switch OFF (

O

) imme-

diately, remove the power plug from the outlet and

contact your service representative.

...........................

• If anything harmful (paper clips, water, other fluids,

etc.) falls into the printer, turn the power switch OFF

(

O

) immediately. Next, remove the power plug from

the outlet to avoid the danger of fire or electrical

shock. Then contact your service representative.

......

• DO NOT remove or connect the power plug with wet

hands, as there is a danger of electrical shock.

.........

• ALWAYS contact your service representative for main-

tenance or repair of internal parts.

.............................

CAUTION

• DO NOT pull the power cord when removing it from

the outlet. If the power cord is pulled, the wires may

become broken and there is a danger of fire or electri-

cal shock. (ALWAYS grasp the power plug when re-

moving the power cord from the outlet.)

.....................

• ALWAYS remove the power plug from the outlet when

moving the printer. If the power cord is damaged,

there is a danger of fire or electrical shock.

................

• If the printer will not be used for a short period of time

(overnight, etc.), turn the power switch OFF (

O

).

If it will not be used for an extended period of time (va-

cations, etc.), remove the power plug from the outlet

for safety purposes during the time the printer is not in

use.

.............................................................................

• When lifting or moving the printer, pull up the 4 han-

dles on both sides of the printer, then ALWAYS carry

the printer by the designated 4 handles with at least 4

people, one person to a handle

...................................

• For safety purposes. ALWAYS remove the power

plug from the outlet when performing cleaning oper-

ations.

...................................................................

• If dust accumulates within the printer, there is a dan-

ger of fire or other trouble. It is therefore recom-

mended

that

you

consult

with

your

service

representative in regard to the cleaning of internal

parts. This is particularly effective if accomplished

prior to seasons of high humidity. Consult with your

service representative in regard to the cost of cleaning

the internal parts of the printer.

...................................

Other Precautions

• DO NOT place heavy objects on the printer or cause

other damage to the printer.

• DO NOT open the front cover, turn off the main switch,

or pull out the power plug during printing.

• During printing, some ozone is released, but the

amount does not cause any ill effect to one’s health. If,

however, the printer is used over a long period of time

in a poorly ventilated room or when printing an ex-

tremely large number of copies, the smell may be-

come

unpleasant.

To

maintain

the

appropriate

environment for print work, it is suggested that the

room be properly ventilated.

• DO NOT touch electrical parts, such as connectors or

printed circuit boards. They could be damaged by

static electricity.

• DO NOT attempt to perform any operations not ex-

plained in this handbook.

• CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or perfor-

mance of procedures other than those specified

herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
