For Your Safety
General
Warning
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this
product to rain or any type of moisture.
Caution
Do not open covers and do not attempt to repair the
unit yourself. Refer servicing to qualified personnel.
Power Source
Warning
BThe power source voltage of this unit is listed on
the nameplate. Only plug the unit into an outlet
with the proper voltage.
BWhen you operate this equipment, the outlet
should be near the equipment and accessible.
BTo ensure safe operation the AC cord supplied
must be inserted into standard three-prong AC
outlet which is effectively grounded (earthed)
through the normal wiring.
BThe fact that the equipment operates
satisfactorily does not imply that the power point
is grounded (earthed) and that the installation is
completely safe. For your safety, if in any doubt
about the effective grounding (earthing) of the
power point, consult a qualified electrician.
BIf the plug cannot be inserted into the AC outlet,
contact a licensed electrician to replace the outlet
with a properly grounded (earthed) one.
BDo not defeat the purpose of the grounding
(earthing) plug (ex. do not use a conversion
plug).

Caution
This printer utilizes a laser. Use of controls or
adjustments or performance of procedures other
than those specified herein may result in
hazardous radiation exposure.
Ozone Release
Warning
Make sure that the printer is installed in a well
ventilated room so as not to increase density of
ozone in the air. Since ozone is heavier than air, it
is recommended that air at floor level be ventilated.
Moving the Unit
The printer weighs approximately 49.2 kg {108.4
lbs.}. It must be handled by two people. Turn the
power off and remove the power cord when

Push down on the metal plate until it
clicks, locking it in place.
Fan the paper, then tap it on a level
surface to avoid media jams or
skewed printing.
Notes:
BBe careful not to leave fingerprints on the media,
which can result in a smudged print.
BReusing media (used paper or jammed paper) that
has been fed through the printer once can reduce
the life of the consumables and paper path
components.
Place the media with the print side
down under the hooks in the tray.
The height of media should not exceed the
limit mark on the tray, or it may cause a jam.
Notes:
BMost media has instructions recommending the
side to be printed first.
BDo not mix different types or thicknesses of media
in the media tray at one time; this may cause a jam.
12
Slide the media tray completely into
the slot.
Note:
BLaser paper, transparency, labels, envelope or
cardstock can be loaded on the multi-purpose
tray.

turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
BReorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
BIncrease the separation between the equipment and receiver.
BConnect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
BConsult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
The user may find the booklet “Something About Interference” available from FCC local regional offices
helpful.
FCC Warning: To assure continued FCC emission limit compliance, the user must use the
recommended shielded interfacing cable when connecting to a host computer. Also, any unauthorized
changes or modifications to this equipment would void the user’s authority to operate this device.

Cleaning the Printer
Periodic cleaning of the printer is recommended.
The frequency of cleaning is dependent upon the
environment in which the printer is used. You should
clean the printer:
Jam at B (Method A or B)
Method A
Remove the jammed media from the multipurpose tray.
Open and close the front door to clear the
error message.
BAt least once a month.
BWhen the printer experiences frequent media
jams.
BWhen print quality has deteriorated.
For the detailed information, refer to “Care and
Maintenance” of the Operating Instructions installed
on your computer.
Clearing Media Jams
■ Jam at B, C, G, H:
To clear a jam, see the instructions on this
Reference Guide and “Care and Maintenance” of the

Specifications
For detailed information on specifications, refer to
“Specifications” of the Operating Instructions
installed on your computer.
Notes for manual / automatic duplex printing:
BIt is strongly suggested to use color laser bond
paper.
BBefore printing on the first side, set the unprintable
area [at least 15 mm (0.59″) in length] on the top
of paper (see below.)

■ Types of Paper to avoid
BExtremely smooth or shiny paper or paper that is
highly textured
BLetterhead imprinted with low temperature or
thermography. These materials may transfer onto
the fusing roller and cause damage. Any preprinted paper should use inks compatible with
200°C (392°F) for 0.1 second.
BDamaged or wrinkled paper, or paper with
irregularities such as tabs, staples, etc.
BMultipart forms or carbonless paper
BPaper with a 25% or more cotton and/or fiber
content
BInk jet media (paper, transparency,etc.)
(It may transfer onto the fuser unit roller and cause
damage.)
It is strongly
recommended that
the sizes of
photograph and
graphic printed on
the page are as
small as possible.
BWhen printing on the first side, avoid printing
photograph or graphic in solid color to prevent
paper jamming. It may cause a damage to the
printer.
The first side printing
OK
N.G.
■ Duplex printing
Manual duplex printing is possible by using the multipurpose tray. Automatic duplex printing is possible
by installing the optional 2nd cassette feeder with
ADU. However, you should not expect the same
print quality and reliability that you get with singlesided printing. We strongly recommend that you
follow the guidelines below.
Notes for manual duplex printing:
BDo not load more than 50 sheets in the multipurpose tray.
BBefore loading paper in the multi-purpose tray,
adjust it so that the edges of the media are lightly
touching the media guides of the multi-purpose
tray.
BUse multi-purpose tray for second side printing.
