Safety Precautions

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

• Because the printer weighs approximately 19.5 kg (43 lb) without the imaging cartridge and optional products installed, one person should not lift or carry it. Two people should carry the printer, lifting it by the correct positions as shown below.

• Unless specifically instructed in this guide, be careful not to touch the fuser, which is marked CAUTION HOT SURFACE, or the surrounding areas. If the printer has been in use, the fuser and the surrounding areas may be very hot. If you must touch one of these areas, wait 40 minutes to allow the heat to subside before doing so.

* Unless specifically instructed in this guide, do not insert your hand into the here, as it may be very hot.

• 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 an imaging cartridge, always place them on a clean, smooth surface.

• Do not attempt to modify an imaging cartridge or take them apart. They cannot be refilled.

• Do not touch the toner. Keep the toner away from your eyes.

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

• If toner is spilled, use a broom and dustpan or a damp cloth with soap and water to clean it up. Because the fine particles can cause a fire or explosion if they come into contact with a spark, do not use a vacuum cleaner.

• Wait at least one hour before using an imaging cartridge 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 an imaging cartridge to room light any longer than necessary. Overexposing the cartridge may cause abnormally dark or light areas to appear on the printer 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 sharing outlets with other appliances.

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