Basics LaserWriter Safety - 7
LaserWriter Safety
Unplug Printer
LaserWriter printers operate at high voltages. To prevent
serious injury, always switch off the printer and unplug the
AC power cord before servicing the printer.
Laser Beam Safety
Never remove the cover of the laser/optic assembly or
disconnect the beam-detect cabling when the printer is
switched on. Although the reflected laser beam is invisible,
direct exposure to it can permanently damage your eyes.
Never disassemble the laser/optical assembly, whether the
printer is powered on or not. The laser diode and focusing
lenses are factory-aligned.
Basics LaserWriter Safety - 8
Fuser Heat
The fuser assembly rollers become very hot during printer
operation. Before servicing the fuser assembly, switch off
the printer for at least 5 minutes to allow the fuser
assembly rollers to cool.
Toner Safety
Toner is a nontoxic substance composed of plastic, iron, and
a small amount of pigment. Clean skin and clothing by
removing as much toner as possible with a dry tissue and
then washing with cold water. Hot water causes toner to jell
and permanently fuse into clothing. Toner attacks vinyl
materials, so don't allow toner to contact vinyl.
Motor Stops When Cassette is Removed
For safety purposes, the main motor on the LaserWriter
Basics LaserWriter Safety - 9
Select 360 stops when the paper cassette is removed.
Weight

the printer, be careful not to strain your back.
