Important Precautions and Safety Information
When using this machine, these basic safety precautions should always be followed
to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to people:
1. Read and understand all instructions.
2. Use common sense whenever operating electrical appliances.
3. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the machine and in the literature
accompanying the machine.
4. If an operating instruction appears to conflict with safety information, heed the
safety information. You may have misunderstood the operating instruction. If you
cannot resolve the conflict, contact your sales or service representative for
assistance.
5. Unplug the machine from the AC wall socket and/or telephone jack before
cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use only a damp cloth for
cleaning.
6. Do not place the machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. It may fall, causing

7. Your machine should never be placed on, near or over a radiator, heater, air
conditioner or ventilation duct.
8. Do not allow anything to rest on the power. Do not locate your machine where
the cords will be abused by persons walking on them.
9. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords. This can diminish performance,
and may result in the risk of fire or electric shock.
10. Do not allow pets to chew on the AC power, telephone or PC interface cords.
11. Never push objects of any kind into the machine through case or cabinet
openings. They may touch dangerous voltage points, creating a risk of fire or
shock. Never spill liquid of any kind onto or into the machine.
12. You machine may have a heavy cover for optimal pressure on the document for
the best scanning and/or faxing (usually the flatbed-type machine). In this case,
replace the cover after placing document on the scan glass, by holding and
moving it down slowly until it seats on its location.
13. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the machine. Take it to a
qualified service technician when repair work is required. Opening or removing
covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect
reassembly could cause electric shock when the unit is subsequently used.
14. Unplug the machine from the telephone jack, PC and AC wall outlet, and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
• When any part of the power cord, plug, or connecting cable is damaged or
frayed.
• If liquid has been spilled into the machine.
vii
• If the machine has been exposed to rain or water.
If the machine does not operate properly after instructions have been followed.
• If the machine has been dropped, or the cabinet appears damaged.
• If the machine exhibits a sudden and distinct change in performance.
15. Adjust only those controls covered by the operating instructions. Improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage, and may require extensive
work by a qualified service technician to restore the machine to normal operation.
16. Avoid using this machine during a lightning storm. There may be a remote risk of
electric shock from lightning. If possible, unplug the AC power and telephone cord
for the duration of the lightning storm.
17. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

period of time, power consumption is automatically
lowered.
The energy star emblem does not represent EPA
endorsement of any machine or service.
Radio Frequency Emissions
FCC Information to the User
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or experienced radio TV technician for help.
C
AUTION
:
Change or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer
responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
ix
Canadian Radio Interference Regulations
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions
from digital apparatus as set out in the interference-causing equipment standard
entitled “Digital Apparatus”, ICES-003 of the Industry and Science Canada.
Cet appareil numérique respecte les limites de bruits radioélectriques applicables aux
appareils numériques de Classe B prescrites dans la norme sur le matériel brouilleur:
Appareils Numériques”, ICES-003 édictée par l’Industrie et Sciences Canada.
Fax Branding
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any person to
use a computer or other electronic device to send any message via a telephone
facsimile machine unless such message clearly contains in a margin at the top or
bottom of each transmitted page or on the first page of the transmission the following
information:
(1) the date and time of transmission
(2) identification of either business, business entity or individual sending the
message; and
(3) telephone number of either the sending machine, business, business entity or
individual.
Refer to the Facsimile User’s Guide for instructions on how to enter this information
into your machine’s memory.
The Telephone Company may make changes in its communications facilities,
equipment operations, or procedures where such action is reasonably required in the
operation of its business and is not inconsistent with the rules and regulations in FCC
Part 68. If such changes can be reasonably expected to render any customer terminal
equipment incompatible with telephone company communications facilities, or
require modification or alteration of such terminal equipment, or otherwise materially
affect its use or performance, the customer shall be given adequate notice in writing,
to allow the customer an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.
Ringer Equivalence Number
The Ringer Equivalence Number and FCC Registration Number for this machine may
be found on the label located on the bottom or rear of the machine. In some instances
you may need to provide these numbers to the telephone company.
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is a measure of the electrical load placed on
the telephone line, and is useful for determining whether you have “overloaded” the
line. Installing several types of equipment on the same telephone line may result in
problems making and receiving telephone calls, especially ringing when your line is
called. The sum of all Ringer Equivalence Numbers of the equipment on your
telephone line should be less than five in order to assure proper service from the
telephone company. In some cases, a sum of five may not be usable on your line. If
any of your telephone equipment is not operating properly, you should immediately
remove it from your telephone line, as it may cause harm to the telephone network.
x
WARNING:
FCC Regulations state that changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly
approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate this
equipment. In the event that terminal equipment causes harm to the telephone
network, the telephone company should notify the customer that service may be
stopped. However, where prior notice is impractical, the company may temporarily
cease service, providing that they:
a) promptly notify the customer.
b) give the customer an opportunity to correct the equipment problem.
c) inform the customer of the right to bring a complaint to the Federal Communication
Commission pursuant to procedures set out in FCC Rules and Regulations Subpart
E of Part 68.
You should also know that:
•Your machine is not designed to be connected to a digital PBX system.
If you intend to use a computer modem or fax modem on the same phone line as
your machine, you may experience transmission and reception problems with all
the equipment. It is recommended that no other equipment, except for a regular
telephone, share the line with your machine.
• If your area experiences a high incidence of lightning or power surges, we
recommend that you install surge protectors for both the power and the telephone
lines. Surge protectors can be purchased from your dealer or telephone and
electronic specialty stores.
• When programming emergency numbers and/or making test calls to emergency
numbers, use a non-emergency number to advise the emergency service
dispatcher of your intentions. The dispatcher will give you further instructions on
how to actually test the emergency number.
• This machine may not be used on coin service or party lines.
• This machine provides magnetic coupling to hearing aids.
•You may safely connect this equipment to the telephone network by means of a
standard modular jack, USOC RJ-11C.

Guidelines for Paper and Special Materials
When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special
materials, keep these guidelines in mind:
•Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper
can cause paper jams and the poor print quality.
• Use only high quality copier grade paper. Avoid paper with
embossed lettering, perforations, or texture that is too
smooth or too rough. Paper jams may occur.
• Store paper in its ream wrapper until ready to use. Place
cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor. Do not place
heavy objects on top of the paper, whether it is packaged or
unpackaged. Keep it away from moisture, or other conditions
that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.
During storage, you should use moisture-proof wrap, such as
any plastic container or bag, to prevent dust and moisture
from contaminating your paper.
• Always use paper and other materials that conform with the
specifications listed under “Paper Specifications” on page B.6.
Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp, well creased
folds.
- DO NOT use envelopes with clasps and snaps.
- DO NOT use envelopes with windows, coated lining,
self-adhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.
- DO NOT use damaged or poorly made envelopes.
• It is recommended that you load special paper types one
sheet at a time.
• Only use materials specifically recommended for use in laser
printers.
•To prevent special materials, such as transparencies and label
sheets from sticking together, remove them as they prints
out.
• Place transparencies on a flat surface after removing them
from the machine.
Do not leave transparencies in the paper tray for long periods
of time. Dust and dirt may accumulate on them resulting in
spotty printing.
•To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle
transparencies and coated paper carefully.
•To avoid fading, do not expose the printed transparencies to
prolonged sunlight.
• Store unused materials at temperatures between 15
o
C and
30
o
C (59
o
F to 86
o
F). The relative humidity should be
between 10 % and 70 %.
P
APER
H
ANDLING
3.4
•Verify that your labels’ adhesive material can tolerate fusing
temperature of 200
o
C (392
o
F) for 0.1 second.
• Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material
between labels. Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off
during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed
adhesive can also cause damage to machine components.
Do not load a sheet of labels through the machine more than
once. The adhesive backing is designed for one pass through
the machine.
• Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet
or are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.
Selecting an Output Location
The machine has two output locations; the rear output slot (face
up) and the front output tray (face down).
To use the front output tray, make sure that the rear cover is
closed. To use the rear output slot, open the cover.
NOTES:
If paper coming out of the front output tray has problems, such
as excessive curl, try printing to the rear output slot.
•To avoid paper jams, do not open or close the rear cover while
the machine is printing.

Printing to the Front Output Tray
(Face down)
The front output tray collects printed paper face-down, in
correct order. The tray should be used for most print jobs.
Printing to the Rear Output Slot
(Face up)
Using the rear output slot, paper comes out of the machine
face-up.
Printing from the Bypass tray to the rear output slot provides the
straight paper path. Using the rear output slot might improve
the output quality with the following:
•envelopes
• labels
• small custom-sized paper
• postcards
•transparencies

CAUTION:
The fusing area at the rear part of the inside of your
machine is hot when powered. Be careful not to be burned when
you access this area.
2
If you do not want to stack the printed pages on the rear
output slot, close the rear cover. The pages will stack on the
front output tray.
Loading Paper in the Paper Tray
The paper tray can hold a maximum of 250 sheets of 20 lb plain
paper. For copying or faxing, you can use A4-, Letter- or
Legal-sized paper only. For PC-printing, you can use many
different sizes of paper; see page 3.2.

•You can load up to 150 sheets
of previously printed paper.
The printed side should be
facing up with an uncurled
edge at the top side. If you
experience problems with
paper feed, turn the paper
around. Note that the print
quality is not guaranteed.
Using the Bypass Tray
Use the Bypass tray to print transparencies, labels, envelopes or
postcards in addition to making quick runs of paper types or
sizes that are not currently loaded in the paper tray.
Acceptable print materials are plain paper with sizes ranging
from 100 x 148 mm (3.9 x 5.8 in.) to Legal, 216 x 356 mm
(8.5 x 14 in.), the largest size acceptable, and weighing between
16 lb and 32 lb.
NOTES:
•Always load only the print materials specified in the
Specifications on page B.6 to avoid paper jams and print quality
problems.
Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes and labels before
loading them into the Bypass tray.
