• Confirm the wall outlet is near the machine and freely accessible, so
that in the event of emergency, it can be unplugged easily.
• Only connect the machine to the power source described in the man-
ual.
• Avoid multi-wiring.
• Do not damage, break or make any modifications to the power cord.
Do not place heavy objects on it, pull it hard or bend it more than nec-
essary. These actions could cause an electric shock or fire.
• Do not incinerate spilled toner or used toner. Toner dust is flammable
and might ignite when exposed to an open flame.
• Disposal should take place at an authorized dealer or an appropriate
collection site.
• If you dispose of the used toner cartridges yourself, dispose of them
according to local regulations.
• Do not store toner, used toner, or toner containers in a place with an
open flame. The toner might ignite and cause burns or a fire.
• Plug and unplug the power cord with dry hands, or an electric shock
could occur.
• Do not risk electric shock by handling the power cord or plug with wet
hands.
• Do not remove any covers or screws other than those specified in this
manual. Some parts of the machine are at a high voltage and could
give you an electric shock. Also, if the machine has laser systems, di-
rect (or indirect) reflected eye contact with the laser beam may cause
serious eye damage. When the machine needs to be checked, adjust-
ed, or repaired, contact your service representative.
• Do not take apart or attempt any modifications to this machine. There
is a risk of fire, electric shock, explosion or loss of sight. If the ma-
chine has laser systems, there is a risk of serious eye damage.
• Be sure to turn off the power switch and wait for about 15 minutes be-
fore cleaning the Registration roller. Not waiting for the printer to cool
down can result in a burn.
• Keep the machine away from flammable liquids, gases, and aerosols.
A fire or an electric shock might occur.

• Do not handle the plug with wet hands. Doing so might cause an electrical
shock.
• Keep the machine in an area that is within optimum environmental condi-
tions. Operating the machine in an environment that is outside the recom-
mended ranges of humidity and temperature can cause an electrical fire
hazard. Keep the area around the socket free of dust. Accumulated dust
can become an electrical fire hazard.
• Place the machine on a strong and level surface. Otherwise, it might fall and
injure someone.
• If you use the machine in a confined space, ensure there is continuous air
circulation.
• Keep toner (used or unused) and the toner containers out of reach of chil-
dren.
• If toner or used toner is inhaled, gargle with plenty of water and move into
a fresh air environment. Consult a doctor if necessary.
• If your skin comes into contact with toner or used toner, wash the affected
area thoroughly with soap and water.
• If toner or used toner gets into your eyes, flush immediately with large
amounts of water. Consult a doctor if necessary.
• If toner or used toner is swallowed, dilute by drinking a large amount of wa-
ter. Consult a doctor if necessary.
• Avoid getting toner on your clothes or skin when removing a paper jam or
replacing toner. If your skin comes into contact with toner, wash the affected
area thoroughly with soap and water.
• If toner gets on your clothing, wash with cold water. Hot water will set the
toner into the fabric and may make removing the stain impossible.
• Our products are engineered to meet the highest standards of quality and
functionality. When purchasing expendable supplies, we recommend using
only those provided by an authorized dealer.
• Do not pull out the paper tray forcefully. If you do, the tray might fall and
cause an injury.

• Before installing options, the machine should be turned off and unplugged
for at least an hour. Components inside the machine become very hot, and
can cause a burn if touched.
• Before moving the machine, unplug the power cord from the outlet. If the
cable is unplugged abruptly, it could become damaged. Damaged plugs or
cables can cause an electrical or fire hazard.
• When lifting the machine, use the grips on both sides. The machine could
break or cause an injury if dropped.
• The printer weighs about 20 kg (44.1 lb.).When lifting the machine, use the
inset grips on both sides. Otherwise the printer could break or cause injury
if dropped.
• Do not touch the inside of the controller board compartment. Doing so may
cause a malfunction or a burn.
• The inside of this printer becomes very hot. Do not touch parts labelled “v”
(indicating a hot surface). Touching these parts will result in burns.
• Grip the plug, not the cord, when pulling the plug from the socket. Pulling
the cord causes wear and tear that can result in fire or electric shock.
• Lifting the paper feed unit carelessly or dropping it may cause injury.
• When removing misfed paper, do not touch the fusing section because it
becomes very hot.
• When you move the printer, remember to unplug the power cord from the
wall outlet to avoid a fire or an electric shock.
• When you pull out the plug from the socket, grip the plug, not the cord, to
avoid damaging the cord and causing a fire or an electric shock.
• When moving the printer after use, do not take out any of the Toners, Photo
Conductor Units, nor the Waste Toner Bottle to prevent toner spill inside the
machine.

tions. Operating the machine in an environment that is outside the recom-
mended ranges of humidity and temperature can cause an electrical fire
hazard. Keep the area around the socket free of dust. Accumulated dust
