Safety information

Connect the power cord to a properly grounded electrical outlet that is near the product and easily accessible.

Do not place or use this product near water or wet locations.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: This product uses a laser. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of

procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

This product uses a printing process that heats the print media, and the heat may cause the media to release emissions.

You must understand the section in your operating instructions that discusses the guidelines for selecting print media

to avoid the possibility of harmful emissions.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: The lithium battery in this product is not intended to be replaced. There is a

danger of explosion if a lithium battery is incorrectly replaced. Do not recharge, disassemble, or incinerate a

lithium battery. Discard used lithium batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions and local

regulations.

CAUTION—HOT SURFACE: The inside of the printer might be hot. To reduce the risk of injury from a hot

component, allow the surface to cool before touching it.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: To reduce the risk of equipment instability, load each tray separately. Keep all

other trays closed until needed.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: The printer weight is greater than 18 kg (40 lb) and requires two or more

trained personnel to lift it safely.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: Before moving the printer, follow these guidelines to avoid personal injury or

printer damage:

• Turn off the printer, and then unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.

• Disconnect all cords and cables from the printer.

• If two or more optional finishers are installed, then remove the finishers individually from the printer.

Notes:

– Make sure to remove the topmost finisher first.

– To remove the finisher, hold the finisher on both sides, and then lift the latches to unlock the finisher.

• If the printer does not have a caster base but is configured with optional trays, then remove the trays.

Note: Slide the latch on the right side of the optional tray toward the front of the tray until it clicks into place.

• Use the handholds located on both sides of the printer to lift it.

• Make sure your fingers are not under the printer when you set it down.

• Make sure there is adequate clearance around the printer.

• Use only the power cord provided with this product or the manufacturer's authorized replacement.

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: If you are accessing the controller board or installing optional hardware or

memory devices sometime after setting up the printer, then turn the printer off, and unplug the power cord

from the electrical outlet before continuing. If you have any other devices attached to the printer, then turn

them off as well, and unplug any cables going into the printer.

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: To avoid the risk of electrical shock when cleaning the exterior of the printer,

unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet and disconnect all cables from the printer before proceeding.

Use only the power cord provided with this product or the manufacturer's authorized replacement.

Safety information 7

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: Make sure that all external connections (such as Ethernet and telephone system

connections) are properly installed in their marked plug-in ports.

This product is designed, tested, and approved to meet strict global safety standards with the use of specific

manufacturer's components. The safety features of some parts may not always be obvious. The manufacturer is not

responsible for the use of other replacement parts.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: Do not cut, twist, bind, crush, or place heavy objects on the power cord. Do not

subject the power cord to abrasion or stress. Do not pinch the power cord between objects such as furniture

and walls. If any of these things happen, a risk of fire or electrical shock results. Inspect the power cord regularly

for signs of such problems. Remove the power cord from the electrical outlet before inspecting it.

Refer service or repairs, other than those described in the user documentation, to a service representative.

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: Do not set up this product or make any electrical or cabling connections, such as a

power cord, a fax feature or USB cable, during a lightning storm.

CAUTION—TIPPING HAZARD: Floor-mounted configurations require additional furniture for stability. You must

use either a printer stand or printer base if you are using a high-capacity input tray or more than one input

option. If you purchased a printer with a similar configuration, you may need additional furniture. For more

information, see

When selecting a location for the printer, leave enough room to open trays, covers, and doors. If you plan to install any

hardware options, then leave enough room for them also. It is important to:

• Set up the printer near a properly grounded and easily accessible electrical outlet.

• Make sure airflow in the room meets the latest revision of the ASHRAE 62 standard or the CEN Technical Committee

156 standard.

• Provide a flat, sturdy, and stable surface.

• Keep the printer:

– Clean, dry, and free of dust.

– Away from stray staples and paper clips.

– Away from the direct airflow of air conditioners, heaters, or ventilators.

– Free from direct sunlight and humidity extremes.

• Observe the recommended temperatures and avoid fluctuations:
