Safety Notes

About this Appendix

Describes cautions to take when installing, transporting, or operating the printer. Also includes applicable
regulatory compliances of your printer.
Safety Notes
WARNING: Two power specifications are listed below. The specifications that apply to your
machine depend on your machine configuration. Connect the power plug only to a properly
rated power outlet. Otherwise, it can cause a fire or shock hazard. If in doubt, contact your
point of purchase.
Rated voltage 110V
Rated frequency 50/60Hz
Rated voltage 220-240V
Rated frequency 50/60Hz
WARNING: Never use multi-plug adaptors to plug multiple power plugs in the same outlet. Be
sure to operate the machine on a sole-use receptacle. Multiple connectors can cause the outlet
to overheat and cause a fire. Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other
than those specified in this manual may result in hazardous laser radiation exposure.

Power Source, Power Cord and Accessory Cable Precautions

If you use a cord with an unspecified current rating, the machine or plug may emit smoke or become
n
hot to the touch externally.
Do not attempt to rework, pull, bend, chafe, or otherwise damage the power cord. Do not place a
n
heavy object on the cord. A damaged cord can cause a fire or shock hazard.
Never touch a power cord with wet hands. Danger of electric shock exists.
n
If the power cord is broken or insulated wires are exposed, contact your point of purchase for a
n
replacement. Using a damaged cord can cause a fire or shock hazard.
When unplugging the machine, grasp the plug instead of the cord. Forcibly pulling on a cord can dam-
n
age it and cause a fire or shock hazard.
Be sure to switch off and unplug the machine before accessing the interior of the machine for clean-
n
ing, maintenance, or fault clearance. Access to a live machine's interior can cause a shock hazard.
When the machine is not used over an extended period of time, switch it off and unplug it. If an
n
unused machine is left connected to a power source for a long period, degraded insulation can cause a
shock, leak current, or fire hazard.
Once a month, unplug the machine and check the power cord for the following.
n
The power cord is plugged firmly into a receptacle.
l
The plug is not excessively heated, rusted, or bent.
l
The plug and receptacle are free of dust.
l
The cord is not cracked or frayed.
