Safety

Prevention of Physical Injury
1. Before disassembling or assembling parts of the printer and peripherals, make sure that the printer
power cord is unplugged.
2. The wall outlet should be near the printer and easily accessible.
3. Note that some components of the printer and the paper tray unit are supplied with electrical
voltage even if the main power switch is turned off.
4. If any adjustment or operation check has to be made with exterior covers off or open while the
main switch is turned on, keep hands away from electrified or mechanically driven components.
5. The inside and the metal parts of the fusing unit become extremely hot while the printer is operating.
Be careful to avoid touching those components with your bare hands.
6. To prevent a fire or explosion, keep the machine away from flammable liquids, gases, and
aerosols.
Health Safety Conditions
Toner and developer are non-toxic, but if you get either of them in your eyes by accident, it may cause
temporary eye discomfort. Try to remove with eye drops or flush with water as first aid. If unsuccessful,
get medical attention.
Observance of Electrical Safety Standards
The printer and its peripherals must be installed and maintained by a customer service representative
who has completed the training course on those models.
Safety and Ecological Notes For Disposal
1. Do not incinerate toner bottles or used toner. Toner dust may ignite suddenly when exposed to an
open flame.
2. Dispose of used toner, developer, and organic photoconductors in accordance with local
regulations. (These are non-toxic supplies.)
3. Dispose of replaced parts in accordance with local regulations.
