WARNING  
Be sure to connect the power cord only to a  
power outlet that meets the specified voltage  
and current requirements. Also make certain  
the outlet is properly grounded. Do not use an  
extension cord or adapter to connect other  
devices to the power outlet used by the  
machine. Using an improper power supply  
may cause fire or electrical shock.  
Do not damage or modify the power cord.  
Placing heavy objects on the  
power cord, pulling it, or  
forcibly bending it will damage  
the cord, resulting in fire or  
electrical shock.  
Do not insert or remove the power plug with  
wet hands.  
*For the power supply requirements, see the  
name plate in the lower left corner of the left side  
of the machine.  
This may cause electrical shock.  
CAUTION  
When removing the power plug from the  
outlet, do not pull on the cord.  
When moving the machine, switch off the  
main power and remove the power plug from  
the outlet before moving.  
Pulling on the cord may cause damage such as  
wire exposure and breakage, and may result in  
fire or electrical shock.  
The cord may be damaged, creating a risk of fire  
or electrical shock.

surface that can withstand the weight of the  
machine.  
Risk of injury due to the machine falling or  
toppling. If peripheral devices are to be installed,  
do not install on an uneven floor, slanted surface,  
or otherwise unstable surface. Danger of slippage,  
falling, and toppling. Install the product on a flat,  
stable surface that can withstand the weight of the  
product. (Weight when various peripheral devices  
are installed: approx. 136.7 lbs. (62 kg))  
Locations with ammonia gas  
Installing the machine next to  
a diazo copy machine may  
cause dirty output.  
Do not install in a location with moisture or  
dust.  
Risk of fire and electrical shock.  
If dust enters the machine, dirty  
output and machine failure may  
result.  
Do not install the machine in a location with  
poor ventilation. Install so that exhaust from  
the machine does not directly contact people.  
A small amount of ozone is created inside the  
machine during printing. The amount of ozone  
created is not sufficient to be harmful; however, an  
unpleasant odor may be noticed during large copy  
runs, and thus the machine should be installed in  
a room with a ventilation fan or windows that  
provide sufficient air circulation. (The odor may  
occasionally cause headaches.)  
Locations that are excessively hot, cold,  
humid, or dry (near heaters, humidifiers, air  
conditioners, etc.)  
* Install the machine so that people are not directly  
exposed to exhaust from the machine. If installed  
near a window, ensure that the machine is not  
exposed to direct sunlight.  
The paper will become damp and condensation  
may form inside the machine, causing misfeeds  
and dirty output.  
Ambient environment (page 43)  
If the location has an ultrasonic humidifier, use  
pure water for humidifiers in the humidifier. If tap  
water is used, minerals and other impurities will be  
emitted, causing impurities to collect on the inside  
of the machine and create dirty output.

BEFORE INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE  
CONNECTING THE MACHINE  
CONNECTING TO A NETWORK  
To connect the machine to a network, connect the LAN cable to the machine's network  
connector. Use a shielded LAN cable.  
After connecting the machine to a network, be sure to configure the IP address and other  
network settings before installing the software. (The factory default setting for the IP  
address is to receive the IP address automatically when the machine is used in a DHCP  
environment.)  
Network settings can be configured using "Network Settings" in the system settings  
(administrator) on the machine.  
If the machine is used in a DHCP environment, the IP address of the  
machine may change. If this happens, printing will not be possible. This  
problem can be avoided by using a WINS server or by assigning a  
permanent IP address to the machine.  
This manual explains how to set up the software in a Windows network  
environment.  
To use the machine on an IPv6 network, the IPv6 setting must be  
enabled in "Network Settings" in the system settings (administrator).  
X Checking the IP address of the machine  
You can check the IP address of the machine by printing out the "All Custom Setting List"  
in the system settings. Follow these steps to print out the "All Custom Setting List".  
Press the [SYSTEM SETTINGS] key, touch the [List Print (User)] key, and then touch the  
[Print] key of "All Custom Setting List".  
CONNECTING THE MACHINE WITH A USB CABLE (Windows)  
The machine can be connected to a computer using a USB cable if the computer is a  
Windows computer. (The USB interface on the machine cannot be used in a Macintosh  
environment.)  
The machine and computer should be connected while the printer driver is being  
installed. If a USB cable is connected before the printer driver is installed, the printer  
driver will not be installed correctly. For the procedure for connecting a USB cable, see  
"WHEN THE MACHINE WILL BE CONNECTED WITH A USB CABLE" (page 1-90 in the  
Operation Guide).

For the users of the fax function  
ABOUT THE TELEPHONE CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT OF  
1991  
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any person to use  
a computer or other electronic device, including FAX machines, to send any message  
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 date and time it is sent and  
an identification of the business or other entity, or other individual sending the message  
and the telephone number of the sending machine or such business, other entity, or  
individual.  
(The telephone number provided may not be a 900 number or any other number for  
which charges exceed local or long-distance transmission charges.)  
In order to program this information into your FAX machine, you should complete the  
following steps:  
See "Own Name and Destination Set" on page 7-82 of Operation Guide.  
Important safety instructions  
• 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.  
• The AC power outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily  
accessible.  
• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

FCC Notice to users:  
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by  
the ACTA.  
On this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, a product identifier  
in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX.  
If requested, this number must be provided to the telephone company.  
The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a  
telephone line.  
Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to  
an incoming call.  
In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0).  
To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by  
the total RENs, contact the local telephone company.  
For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for this product is part of the product  
identifier that has the format US: AAAEQ##TXXXX.  
The digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3).  
For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on the label.  
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, your telephone company may  
disconnect your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance. If  
advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will also be  
advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.  
Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures  
that could affect the operation of your equipment. If this happens, the telephone company will  
provide advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted  
service. If the equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, your telephone company may  
ask you to disconnect the equipment until the problem is resolved.
