Using the Copier Properly
To ensure the optimum performance of the copier, follow the precautions
listed below.
 Never place a heavy object on the copier.
 Never subject the copier to shocks.
 Never open doors or turn the copier off while he is making copies.
 Never bring any magnetized object near the copier.
 Never use flammable sprays, liquids or gases near the copier.
 Never modify the copier, as a fire or electrical shock could result.
 Never remove any panel or cover which is secured. The copier
contains high voltage components which can cause electrical shock.
 Never tamper with the laser mechanism in laser-equipped models, as
blindness or other injury may result.
 Never drop paper clips, staples or other small pieces of metal through
the vents or other openings in the copier, as a fire or electrical shock
can result.
 Never place containers of liquid on the copier. If liquids get inside the
copier, they can cause fire or electrical shock. If a piece of metal or any
liquid gets inside the copier, immediately turn the copier off, unplug the
power cord and call your technical representative. A fire or electrical
shock can result if the copier remains plugged in or is operated after
metal or liquid gets inside.
 Never leave the copier running if it becomes unusually hot, or if smoke
or an unusual odor or noise is detected. Should any of these
conditions occur, immediately turn the copier off, unplug the power
cord and call your technical representative. A fire or electrical shock
can result if the copier remains plugged in under any of these
conditions.
 Always insert the power plug all the way into the outlet.
 Always make sure that the outlet is visible, clear of the copier or copier
cabinet.
 Always provide good ventilation when making a large number of
continuous copies.
 Never pull on the power cord, and always hold the plug when
unplugging the power cord. A damaged cord could result in a fire or
cause an electrical shock.
 Never unplug the power cord with a wet hand, as it could cause an
electrical shock.
 Always unplug the power cord before moving the copier. Moving the
copier with the power cord plugged in can damage the cord resulting
in a fire or causing an electrical shock.

EP1054 X-1
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine
 Always unplug the power cord when the copier is not going to be used
for a long time.
 Never place a heavy object on the power cord, or pull or bend it, as a
fire or electrical shock can result.
 Always ensure that the copier does not sit on or move onto the power
cord or communications cable of other electrical equipment, as
malfunctioning equipment or a fire could result.
 Always ensure that the power cord or communications cable of other
electrical equipment does not become wedged into the copier
mechanism, as malfunctioning equipment or a fire could result.
 Always use the correct power voltage, as improper voltage can cause
a fire or electrical shock.
 Never use a multiple outlet adapter, as a fire or electrical shock can
result.
 Should the power cord become damaged, immediately turn the copier
off, unplug the power cord and call your technical representative. A
damaged cord can result in a fire or cause an electric shock.
 If an extension cord is needed, use one with a greater rated capacity
than the maximum power requirements of the copier. The use of an
extension cord that falls short of supporting the maximum power
requirements can result in overheating or a fire
 Always unplug the copier whenever anything unusual is observed
during operation. Make sure that the outlet is nearby and clear of the
copier and furniture.

NOTE
Locate the Copier in a Well Ventilated Room
è A negligible amount of ozone is generated during normal operation of
this copier. An unpleasant odor may, however, be created in poorly
ventilated rooms during extensive copier operations. For a
comfortable, healthy and safe operating environment, it is
recommended that the room be well ventilated.
Placer le copieur dans une pièce largement ventilée
è Une quantité d’ozone négligeble est dégagée pendant le fonction-
nement du copieur quand celui-ci est utilisé normalement. Cependant,
une odeur désagréable peut être ressentie dans les pièces dont
l’aération est insuffisante et lorsqu’une utilisation prolongée du copieur
est effectuée. Pour avoir la certitude de travailler dans un
environnment réunissant des conditions de confort, santé et de
sécurité, il est préférable de bien aérer la pièce ou se trouve le copieur.

As an ENERGY STAR® Partner, we
have determined that this copier meets
the ENERGY STAR® Guidelines for
energy efficiency.

What is an Energy Star Copier ?


Energy Star Copiers have a feature that allows them to automatically turn
off or “go to sleep” after a period of inactivity, ensuring night and weekend
shut off. This auto-feature can reduce a copier’s annual electricity costs
by over 60 percent. In addition, high speed copiers will be set to
automatically make double sided copies. An organization’s paper costs
can be reduced and the volume of paper sent into the waste stream will
decline. It takes 10 times more energy to produce a piece of paper than it
does to make a single copy on a copier. Therefore, using less paper also
means decreased national energy consumption.
