CAUTIONS
Follow the cautions below when using this machine.

CAUTIONS ON USING THE MACHINE
Warning:
· The fusing area is hot. Exercise care in this area when removing misfed paper.
· Do not look directly at the light source. Doing so may damage your eyes.

Caution:
· Do not switch the machine rapidly on and off. After turning the machine off, wait 10 to 15 seconds before turning it
back on.
· Machine power must be turned off before installing any supplies.
· Place the machine on a firm, level surface.
· Do not install the machine in a humid or dusty location.
· When the machine is not used for a long time, for example, during prolonged holidays, turn the power switch off
and remove the power cord from the outlet.
· When moving the machine, be sure to turn the power switch off and remove the power cord from the outlet.
· Do not cover the machine with a dust cover, cloth or plastic film while the power is on. Doing so may prevent heat
dissipation, damaging the machine.
· Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in
hazardous laser radiation exposure.
· The socket-outlet should be installed near the machine and should be easily accessible.
· Do not throw the toner cartridge into a fire. Toner may fly and cause burns.
· Store toner cartridges out of the reach of small children.

IMPORTANT POINTS WHEN SELECTING AN
INSTALLATION SITE
Improper installation may damage the machine. Please note the following during initial installation and whenever the
machine is moved.
If the machine is moved from a cool place to a warm place, condensation may form inside the machine. Operation
Caution in this condition will cause poor copy quality and malfunctions. Leave the machine at room temperature for at least
2 hours before use.


Do not install your machine in areas that are:
· damp, humid, or very · exposed to direct sunlight
dusty




· poorly · subject to extreme
ventilated temperature or humidity
changes, e.g., near an
air conditioner or
heater.




The machine should be installed near an accessible power outlet for easy connection and
disconnection.


4
Be sure to connect the power cord only to a power outlet that meets the specified voltage and
current requirements. Also make certain the outlet is properly grounded.
Connect the machine to a power outlet which is not used for other electric appliances. If a lighting fixture is
Note
connected to the same outlet, the light may flicker.


Be sure to allow the required space around the 30 cm (12")
machine for servicing and proper ventilation.


30 cm 30 cm
(12") (12")




CAUTION:
Do not install the machine in a location with poor air circulation.
A small amount of ozone is created inside the machine during printing. The amount of ozone created is not
sufficient to be harmful; however, an unpleasant odor may be noticed during large copy runs, and thus the
machine should be installed in a room with a ventilation fan or windows that provide sufficient air circulation.
(The odor may occasionally cause headaches.)
* Install the machine so that people are not directly exposed to exhaust from the machine. If installed near a
window, ensure that the machine is not exposed to direct sunlight.


CAUTIONS ON HANDLING THE MACHINE
Observe the following precautions when handling the machine to maintain top performance.
Do not drop the machine, subject it to shock or strike it against any object.
Store spare toner cartridges in a cool dry place without removing from the package before use.
· If they are exposed to direct sunlight or excessive heat, poor copies may result.
Do not touch the photoconductive drum (green portion).
· Scratches or smudges on the drum will cause dirty copies.

INITIAL SETTINGS
The machine reverts to the initial settings when it is first turned on, when the [CLEAR ALL] key ( ) is pressed, or the
preset "auto clear time" elapses after the last copy is made in any mode. When the machine reverts to the initial
settings, all settings and functions selected to that point are cancelled. The auto clear time can be changed in the
administrator settings. (See "6. SYSTEM SETTINGS (ADMINISTRATOR)".)
The initial settings that appear in the display are shown below.

Functions and settings are explained based on the above screen as applicable.

The initial settings can be changed in the administrator settings. (See "6. SYSTEM SETTINGS
Note (ADMINISTRATOR)".)
For the initial settings (initial screen) of printer, fax, and scanner modes, see the operation manuals of those
modes.




POWER SAVE MODES
The machine has two power save modes to reduce overall power consumption and thereby reduce the cost of
operation. These modes help conserve natural resources and reduce environmental pollution. The two power save
modes are "Preheat mode" and "Auto power shut-off mode".
The time settings for each mode can be changed in the administrator settings. (See "6. SYSTEM SETTINGS
(ADMINISTRATOR)".)

Preheat mode
When the set time elapses, the temperature of the fusing unit is automatically lowered to reduce power consumption
while on standby. To return to normal operation, touch any key on the operation panel. To make a copy when the
machine is in this mode, simply select the desired copy selections and then press the [START] key ( ).

Auto power shut-off mode
When the set time elapses, the power to the fusing unit automatically turns off to reduce power consumption. (This is
based on the guidelines of the International Energy Star Program.) When the machine enters this mode, the touch
panel screen turns off and only the [START] key ( ) blinks. To return to normal operation, press the [START] key
( ). To copy after warm-up starts, make desired copy selections and press the [START] key ( ). When the
machine receives a fax or a print job, Auto power shut-off mode automatically deactivates and the machine returns
to normal operation.
