• The socket-outlet should be installed near the machine and should be easily accessible.

IMPORTANT POINTS WHEN SELECTING AN

INSTALLATION SITE

Improper installation may damage the machine. Please note the following during initial installation and whenever the machine is moved.

Caution

If the machine is moved from a cool place to a warm place, condensation may form inside the machine. Operation in this condition will cause poor copy quality and malfunctions. Leave the machine at room temperature for at least

2 hours before use.

Do not install your machine in areas that are:

• damp, humid, or very dusty

• exposed to direct sunlight

• poorly ventilated

• subject to extreme temperature or humidity changes, e.g., near an air conditioner or heater.

3


The machine should be installed near an accessible power outlet for easy connection and disconnection.

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.

Note

Connect the machine to a power outlet which is not used for other electric appliances. If a lighting fixture is connected to the same outlet, the light may flicker.

Be sure to allow the required space around the machine for servicing and proper ventilation.

) calculated as an 8 hr. timeweighted average concentration.

However, since the small amount that is emitted may have an objectionable odor, it is advisable to place the machine in a ventilated area.

CAUTIONS ON HANDLING

Be careful in handling the machine as follows to maintain the performance of this machine.

Do not drop the machine, subject it to shock or strike it against any object.

Do not expose the drum cartridge to direct sunlight.

• Doing so will damage the surface (green portion) of the drum cartridge, causing smudges on copies.

Store spare supplies such as drum cartridges and TD cartridges in a dark place without removing from the package before use.

• If they are exposed to direct sunlight or excessive heat, poor copies may result.

Safety precautions:

This Digital Copier is rated Class I and complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 of the CDRH standards. This means that the machine does not produce hazardous laser radiation. For your safety, observe the precautions below.

• Do not remove the cabinet, operation panel or any other covers.

• The machine’s exterior covers contain several safety interlock switches. Do not bypass any safety interlock by inserting wedges or other items into switch slots.

1

*

2

First-Copy time may vary depending on the power-supply voltage, ambient temperature, and other operating conditions.

"dpi" ("dots per inch") is unit that is used to measure resolution. Resolution indicates how much detail can be reproduced in a printed or scanned image.

High-quality digital image

• High-quality copying at 600 dpi is performed.

• In addition to automatic exposure adjustment, two original modes can be selected: "TEXT" for text-only originals, and "PHOTO" for photographs. The exposure can be adjusted to five levels in each mode.

• The photo mode copying function allows clear copying of delicate halftone original images such as monochrome photos and color photos.

Enhanced copying features

• Zoom copies can be made from 25% to 400% in 1% increments.

(When the SPF is being used, the zoom copy ratio range is 50% to 200%.)

• Continuous copying of up to 999 copies is possible. (Can be changed to a maximum of 99 copies in the user programs.)

• The user programs allow customized machine settings and management. Access to the machine can be controlled by enabling audit mode.

Scan once/Print many

• The machine is equipped with a memory buffer allowing the machine to scan an original once and make up to 999 copies of the scanned image. This improves workflow, reduces operating noise from the machine and reduces wear and tear on the scanning mechanism, which provides for a higher reliability.

Laser printer function

• The accompanying printer driver can be installed to enable use of the machine as a printer. (See the accompanying Software Setup Guide.)

Environment and people friendly design

machine is ready to copy.)

POWER OFF

Make sure that the machine is not in operation and then turn the power switch to the "OFF" position.

If the power switch is turned off while the machine is in operation, a misfeed may occur and the job that was in progress will be canceled.

Check the following to make sure the machine is not in operation:

• The START indicator is lit. (Initial state)

• The POWER SAVE indicator is lit. ("Preheat mode" or "Auto power shut-off" mode)

Note

• The machine reverts to the initial settings when it is first turned on, when the [CLEAR ALL] key ( ) is pressed, or when no keys are pressed for the preset "Auto clear" time following the end of a copy job. When the machine reverts to the initial settings, all settings and functions selected to that point are canceled. The "Auto clear" time can be changed in the user settings. (p.33)

• The machine is initially set to automatically enter power save mode if not used for copying or printing, for a preset period of time. This setting can be changed in the user programs. (p.33)

Power Save Modes

The machine has two power save modes to reduce overall power consumption thereby reducing the cost of operation. In addition, these modes conserve natural resources and help reduce environmental pollution. The two power save modes are "Preheat mode" and "Auto power shut-off mode".

Preheat mode

This function automatically switches the machine to a low power consumption state if the set duration of time elapses without the machine being used when the power is on. The POWER SAVE indicator lights up, however, the keys on the operation panel can be used. Normal operation automatically resumes when a key on the operation panel is pressed, an original is placed, or a print job is received.

Auto power shut-off mode

This function automatically switches the machine to a state that consumes even less power than preheat mode if the set duration of time elapses without the machine being used when the power is on. All lights except the POWER

SAVE indicator and ON LINE indicator go off. To resume normal operation, press the [START] key ( ). Normal operation also resumes automatically when a print job is received. While in auto power shut-off mode, no keys

(except the [START] key ( )) can be used.

Note The preheat activation time and the "Auto power shut-off timer" can be changed using user programs. It is suggested that you set times that are appropriate for your usage of the machine. (p.33)

Initial settings

The machine assumes the initial settings when it is first turned on, when the [CLEAR ALL] key ( ) is pressed, and approximately one minute after the last copy is made in any mode.

Copy ratio: 100%, Exposure: Automatic

Copy quantity: 0, All special copier modes: Off

Explanation

• "Auto clear time" automatically returns the copy settings to the initial settings (p.12) when a certain period of time elapses after a copy is made. This program is used to select the period of time. "Auto clear time" can also be disabled.

• This function automatically switches the machine to a low power consumption state if the set duration of time elapses without the machine being used when the power is on.

The POWER SAVE indicator lights up, however, the keys on the operation panel can be used. Normal operation automatically resumes when a key on the operation panel is pressed, a print job is received or an original is placed.

• This function automatically switches the machine to a state that consumes even less power than preheat mode if the set duration of time elapses without the machine being used when the power is on. All lights except the

POWER SAVE indicator and ON LINE indicator go off. To resume normal operation, press the [START] key ( ).

Normal operation also resumes automatically when a print job is received. While in auto power shut-off mode, no keys (except the

[START] key ( )) can be used.

• When copying using the SPF, during the period of time that the SPF indicator blinks after an original has been scanned

(about 5 seconds), a subsequent original can be placed and automatically fed into the machine.

• Use this setting to enable or disable auto power shut-off.

See "AUDITING MODE SETTINGS" (p.36).

Explanation

• This setting is used to change the copy resolution in AUTO and TEXT mode from 600 x 300 dpi to 600 x 600 dpi (high-quality mode).

Scanning is slower when high-quality mode is used.

• Use this setting to select whether or not holding down a key causes repeated input of the key. For keys that normally cause a set value to increase when held down (for example, holding down the [ZOOM] key ( ,

)), this program can be used to have the set value not change when the key is held down.

• Use this setting to select how long a key must be pressed for the input to be accepted. By selecting a longer time, you can prevent settings from being changed by the accidental pressing of a key.

• This sets the volume of beep signals. (p.35)

• Use this to sound a beep when a base setting is selected. (p.35)

• Use this setting to select 99 or 999 for the maximum number of copies.

• When this function is enabled, printing in printer mode will automatically continue using a different size of paper if the specified size of paper runs out in all trays. This feature does not function in copy mode.

• Use this program to select a default tray. This tray is automatically selected each time the power is turned on or each time the machine reverts to the initial settings.

• Use this program to set "AUTO", "TEXT", or

"PHOTO" as the default exposure mode.

This chapter explains how to keep the machine operating smoothly, including viewing copy count, the toner level indicator, and cleaning the machine.

CHECKING THE TOTAL OUTPUT

COUNT AND TONER LEVEL

CHECKING THE TOTAL OUTPUT COUNT

From the "0" display, you can check the total output count, total copy count, as explained below.

The total output count is all pages (for both printing and copying) printed by the machine and the total output count can be counted up to 999,999.

[Total output count]

Hold down the [0] key.

The total output count appears sequentially in two parts while you hold down the [0] key.

[Total copy count]

Hold down the [ ] key.

The count display and counting method are the same as for the total output count.

Example: Total number of pages output is 12,345.

Note

The total number of pages printed in printer mode can be calculated by subtracting the total copy count from the total output count.

Note

• Each 11" x 17" size page is counted as two pages.

• During a copy run, pressing the [0] key shows the number of completed copy pages, not the total output count.

CLEANING THE DOCUMENT GLASS AND SPF/

DOCUMENT COVER

If the document glass, SPF, underside of the document cover, or the scanner for originals coming from the SPF (the long narrow glass surface on the right side of the document glass) become dirty, the dirt may appear on copies.

Always keep these parts clean.

Stains or dirt on the document glass/SPF will also be copied. Wipe the document glass, document cover portion of the SPF and the scanning window on the document glass with a soft, clean cloth.

If necessary, dampen the cloth with water. Do not use thinner, benzene, or similar volatile cleaning agents.

Warning

Do not spray flammable cleaner gas. Gas from the spray may come in contact with the internal electrical components or high-temperature parts of the fusing unit, creating a risk of fire or electrical shock.

CLEANING THE ORIGINAL SCANNING GLASS (ONLY

WHEN A SPF IS INSTALLED)

If white or black lines appear in copies made with using the SPF, use the provided glass cleaner to clean the original scanning glass. (If white or black lines appear in copies or printed pages when the SPF is not used, see "CLEANING THE TRANSFER

CHARGER" on page 59.)

Example of dirty print image

Carcinogenicity : In 1996 the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a Group 2B carcinogen (possible human carcinogen). This classification is given to chemicals for which there is inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal evidence on which to base an opinion of carcinogenicity. The classification is based upon the development of lung tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures to free carbon black at levels that induce particle overload of the lung. Studies performed in animal models other than rats did not show any association between carbon black and lung tumors. Moreover, a two-year cancer bioassay using a typical toner preparation containing carbon black demonstrated no association between toner exposure and tumor development in rats.

Page : 4/4

Chronic Effect


MSDS No. F-01381

: In a study in rats of chronic inhalation exposure to a typical toner, a mild to moderate degree of lung fibrosis was observed in 92% of the rats in the high concentration (16mg/m

3

) exposure group, and a minimal to mild degree of fibrosis was noted in 22% of the animals in the middle

(4mg/m

3

) exposure group, but no pulmonary change was reported in the lowest (1mg/m

3

) exposure group, the most relevant level to potential human exposures.
