Operator Safety:

This machine is considered a CDRH class I laser device, safe for office/ EDPuse. The machine contains 5-milliwat, 760 - 800 nanometer wavelength, GaAIAs laser diodes. Direct (or indirect reflected) eye contact with the laser beam might cause serious eye damage. Safety precautions and interlock mechanisms have been designed to prevent any possible laser beam exposure to the operator.

Laser Safety:

The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) prohibits the repair of laser-based optical unit in the field. The optical housing unit can only be repaired in a factory or at a location with the requisite equipment. The laser subsystem is replaceable in the field by a qualified Customer Engineer.The laser chassis is not repairable in the field. Customer engineers are therefore directed to return all chassis and laser subsystems to the factory or service depot when replacement or the optical subsystem is required.

Caution:

Use of controls or adjustment or performance of procedures other than those specified in this manual might result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Important

Parts of this manual are subject to change without prior notice. In no event will the company be liable for direct, indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages as a result of handling or operating the machine.

Do not attempt any maintenance or troubleshooting other than that mentioned in this manual. This machine contains a laser beam generator and direct exposure to laser beams can cause permanent eye damage.

Two kinds of size notation are employed in this manual. With this machine refer to the inch version.

Ricoh shall not be responsible for any damage or expense that might result from the use of parts other than genuine Ricoh parts in your Ricoh office product.

For good copy quality, Ricoh recommends that you use genuine Ricoh toner.

Paper Recommendations

Note the following suggestions when handling or selecting paper used with this printer.

Loading Paper

• Use only the recommended paper types. Print quality cannot be guaranteed if other paper types are used.

• Do not use paper that is already printed on.

• If you load paper into the paper tray, confirm not to stack over the limit mark.

• If you load paper onto Bypass Tray Type 270, confirm that the paper fits under the side guide.

• If you load paper into the paper tray, confirm that print side is facing up.

• If you load paper onto Bypass Tray Type 270, confirm that print side is facing down.

Storing Paper

Paper should always be stored properly. Improperly stored paper might result in poor print quality, paper misfeeds, or printer damage.

Recommendations are as follows:

• Avoid storing paper in humid areas.

• Avoid exposing paper to direct sunlight.

• Store on a flat surface.

• Keep open reams of paper in the package in which the paper came.

Types of Paper and Other Media

❖ Plain Paper

• If you print on paper heavier than 105g/m

2

(28lb), use tray 2 or Bypass

Tray Type 270. The each tray can hold paper up to 157g/m 2 (42lb) in weight.

• If you load paper heavier than 105g/m 2 (28lb) onto tray 2, set the printer

to the "Thick paper" mode.

⇒

P.44 “Loading Thick Paper, Envelope or OHP

Transparencies”

• If paper is curled or bent, straighten it before loading.

• If you print on paper for color, load it onto tray 2 and do not stack paper over the lower limit mark.

36


❖ OHP Transparencies

• If you load OHP transparencies onto Bypass Tray Type 270, set the printer to "Transparency" mode using the printer driver.

• Be careful not to touch the print side of the OHP transparencies. Otherwise, the print side can become dirty or damaged, resulting in poor print quality.

• If you print on an OHP transparency that has a print side, load it face up onto tray 2 or load it face down onto Bypass Tray Type 270.

• Do not print on OHP transparencies for color.

❖ Adhesive Labels

• Load only one adhesive label at a time onto Bypass Tray Type 270.

• Use adhesive labels in which the whole side can be printed on.

• Avoid using adhesive labels having exposed glue.

• If the print side is coated, the print quality might be reduced, as the toner might not fuse well.

❖ Envelopes

• When printing on envelopes, use tray 2 or Bypass Tray Type 270.

• You can specify the sizes for the envelopes using the operation panel.

⇒

P.94 “Job Control Parameters”

• Recommended of envelopes is as follows:

• Com#10 Env

• C6 Env

• C5 Env

• DL Env

• Monarch Env

• Do not stack envelopes over the limit mark.

• Confirm that print side is facing up when loading onto the tray 2.

• Confirm that print side is facing down when loading onto Bypass Tray

Type 270.

• Load the envelopes with the flaps aligned to the right side fence. The flaps should be securely folded down.

• Confirm that there is no air in the envelopes before loading.

• To get better print quality, it is recommended that you set the right, left, top, and bottom print margins, to at least 15mm (0.6") each.

• Do not print on both sides of envelopes.

• Load only one size and type of envelope at a time.

• Before loading envelopes, flatten the leading edges (side being fed into the printer) of them by running a pencil or ruler across them.

4

37


• There are some kinds of envelopes that might be occurred misfeed, wrinkle or poor printing.

• Before loading envelopes, confirm that they are rectangular in shape. See the following illustrations.

R CAUTION:

• The inside of the machine becomes very hot. Do not touch the parts with a label indicating a "hot surface". Touching a "hot surface" could result in a burn injury.

• Do not eat or swallow toner.

• Keep toner (used or unused) and the toner cartridge out of reach of children.

Printing with the Operation Panel

Using the Proof Print

Use this function to print only one printing of a multiple print job. The other printings are saved in the printer. The saved job can be printed from the printer's operation panel.

Limitation

❒ To use this function, the optional

Printer Hard Disk Type 185 must be installed on your printer.

Note

❒ If the application has a collate option, confirm that it is not selected before sending a print job. By default, proof print jobs are automatically collated by the printer driver. If the collate option is selected from the application print dialog box, more copy printings than intended may be printed.

❒ You can identify the file you want to print by the User IDs and the time when the job was stored.

❒ The actual number of pages the printer can save depends on the contents of the print images. As an example, the printer can save up to

30 jobs or 2,000 pages. It depends on the data volume.

❒ If the first printing of the proof print file is not what you expected and you do not want to print the remaining printings, delete the proof print file using the operation panel. If you print the remaining printings of the proof print file, the job in the printer is deleted automatically.
