Pre-installation Requirements for Canon Facsimile
Equipment
A. Location
Supply a suitable table, cabinet, or desk. For the machine's dimensions and weight,
see Chapter 11, "Appendix," in the Basic Guide.
B. Order Information
1. Only a single line, touch-tone or rotary telephone set is to be used.
2. Order an RJ11-C modular jack (USOC code), which should be installed by the
telephone company. If the RJ11-C jack is not present, installation cannot occur.

DDD (DIRECT DISTANCE DIAL) LINE
-or-
IDDD (INTERNATIONAL DIRECT DISTANCE DIAL) LINE IF YOU COMMUNICATE
OVERSEAS
NOTE
Canon recommends an individual line following industry standards, e.g., the 2,500
(Touch Tone) or 500 (Rotary/Pulse Dial) telephones. A dedicated extension off a PBX
unit without "Call Waiting" can be used with the Color imageCLASS MF8170c. Key
telephone systems are not recommended because they send non-standard signals to
individual telephones for ringing and special codes, which may cause a fax error.
C. Power Requirements
This equipment should be connected to a standard 120-volt AC, three-wire
grounded outlet only. Do not connect this machine to an outlet or power line shared
with other appliances that cause "electrical noise." Air conditioners, electric
typewriters, copiers, and machines of this sort generate electrical noise which often
interferes with communications equipment and the sending and receiving of
documents.
ix
Connection of the Equipment
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements
adopted by the ACTA. On the rear panel of 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.
An FCC compliant telephone cord and modular jack are provided with this
equipment. This equipment is designed to be connected to the telephone network
or premises wiring using a compatible modular jack which is Part 68 compliant. See
Installation instructions for details.
The Ringer Equivalence Number (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. 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., 10 is a REN of 1.0).
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone
company. Connection to party lines is subjected to state tariffs.
In Case of Equipment Malfunction
Should any malfunction occur which cannot be corrected by the procedures
described in this guide, disconnect the equipment from the telephone line and
unplug the power cord. The telephone line should not be reconnected or the power
cord plugged in until the problem is completely resolved. Users should contact
Canon Authorized Service Facilities for servicing of equipment. Information
regarding Canon Authorized Service Facility locations can be obtained by calling
the Canon Customer Care Center (1-800-828-4040).
Rights of the Telephone Company
Should the equipment cause harm to the telephone network, the telephone
company may temporarily disconnect service. The telephone company also retains
the right to make changes in facilities and services which may affect the operation
of this equipment. When such changes are necessary, the telephone company is
required to give adequate prior notice to the user.
