Laser Printer Precautions - Epson ActionLaser 1600 Reference Manual

Laser printer Precautions

This printer uses laser technology. The following list of
precautions applies whenever you open the printer cover.
Even if you are familiar with other types of printers, be sure
to follow these precautions carefully to ensure safe, efficient
operation.
Be careful not to touch the fuser, which is marked by a
CAUTION HOT SURFACE label. If the printer has been in
use, the fuser can be very hot.
Avoid touching the components inside the printer unless
instructed to do so in this guide.
Do not scratch the surface of the drum. Avoid touching the
drum, since oils from your skin can permanently damage
its surface and may affect print quality.
Avoid pressing on the top of the imaging cartridge.
Pressing directly on the cartridge may cause toner to spill
into the printer. If there is a spill, see Chapter 6 for cleaning
instructions.
Never force the printer's components into place. Although
the printer is designed to be sturdy, rough handling can
damage it.
