Safety Precautions

Be sure to follow these precautions carefully to ensure safe, efficient operation:

• Because the printer weighs approximately 19.3 kg (42.5 lb) without the consumable or optional products installed, you should not lift or carry it by yourself. Two or more people should carry it, lifting it by the correct positions as shown below.

• Be careful not to touch the fuser, which is marked CAUTION! HIGH TEMPERATURE, or the surrounding areas. If the printer has been in use, the fuser and the surrounding areas may be very hot.

* CAUTION! HIGH TEMPERATURE

• Avoid touching the components inside the printer unless instructed to do so in this guide.

• Never force the printer's components into place. Although the printer is designed to be sturdy, rough handling can damage it.

• When handling the imaging cartridge, always place it on a clean, smooth surface.

• Do not turn the imaging cartridge upside down or stand it on its ends.

• Do not attempt to modify or take the imaging cartridge apart. It cannot be refilled.

• Do not touch the toner and avoid all contact with your eyes.

• Do not dispose of used imaging cartridges in fire, as they can explode and cause injury. Dispose of them according to local regulations.

• Do not use an imaging cartridge for at least one hour after moving it from a cool to a warm environment to prevent damage from condensation.

• Do not open the drum's protective cover and avoid exposing the imaging cartridge to room light any longer than necessary. Overexposing the cartridge may cause abnormally dark or light areas to appear on the printed page and reduce the life of the cartridge.

• Be sure to keep consumable components out of the reach of children.

• Do not leave jammed paper inside the printer. This can cause the printer to overheat.

• Avoid using outlets that other appliances are plugged into.

• Use only an outlet that meets the power requirements of this printer.
