SAFETY INFORMATION

SAFETY INFORMATION
All Areas INTERNAL LASER RADIATION Maximum radiation power: 8.8 x 10-4 (W) Wavelength: 770-810 nm This is a Class IIIb Laser Diode Assy. that has an invisible Laser Beam. The Print Head Unit is NOT A FIELD SERVICE ITEM. Therefore, the Print Head Unit should not be opened under any circumstances.

U.S.A. Only LASER SAFETY This LBP printer is certified as a Class 1 laser product under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Radiation Performance Standard according to the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act of 1990. This means that the LBP printer does not produce hazardous laser radiation. Since radiation emitted inside the LBP printer is completely confined within protective housing and external covers, the laser beam cannot escape from the LBP printer during any phase of user operation. CDRH REGULATIONS The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration implemented regulations for laser products on August 2, 1976. These regulations apply to laser products manufactured from August 1, 1976. Compliance is mandatory for products marketed in the United States. The label shown in the figure indicates compliance with the CDRH regulations and must be attached to laser products marketed in the United States. CLASSIFICATION OF THE LASER PRODUCT This product is classified as a Class 1 Laser Product under the CDRH Regulations U.S.A.

For other Countries Users WARNING: Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified in this manual may result in hazardous radiation exposure. This is a semiconductor laser. The maximum power of the laser diode is 8.8 x 10-4W and the wavelength is 770-810 nm. For Denmark Users ADVARSEL: Usynlig laserstråling ved åbning, når sikkerhedsafbrydere er ude af funktion. Undgå udsttelse for stråling. Klasse 1 laser produkt der opfylder IEC825 sikkerheds kravene.

SAFETY INFORMATION

PRECAUTIONS
(1) Precautions

Caution

Refer to D: DISASSEMBLY/ CLEANING for the Disassembly procedure. 1. When unplugging connectors on the P.W.B.s themselves, always make sure the power is OFF first. Be sure to unplug the printer before disassembling and cleaning. 2. Always unplug connectors by holding the connector housing. Pulling on the wires can lead to problems with poor contact. 3. It is recommended that a body ground not be used when carrying out any trouble-shooting procedure. Be sure to ground DC lines to a ground test point on the P.W.B.

(2) At Replacement/ Adjustment/ Cleaning Caution 1. Be sure to handle the Fusing Unit carefully. The unit remains hot for a while after the printer is turned off. 2. Do not disassemble the Imaging Cartridge or the Print Head Unit. 3. Do not expose the PC Drum of the Imaging Cartridge to direct sunlight for more than one minute or to room lighting for more than 5 minutes. 4. Turn off the power before removing the Print Head Unit to protect the eyes from possible exposure to the laser beam. 5. Use only a Fuse of the indicated rating.

Caution (3) During Operation 1. Keep your hands, clothing, etc. well away from operating or rotating parts. 2. Never touch the terminals of electrical parts or high voltage parts. 3. This printer is using an invisible laser beam. To prevent a laser beam leak, the printer performs a trial run to make sure the covers are in position.

HANDLING THE P.W.B.
Observe the following precautions when handling a P.W.B. with ICs.

(1) During Transportation/ Storage 1. During transport and storage, P.W.B.s should be kept in conductive bags or on mats and not taken out unless absolutely necessary. 2. P.W.B.s should be stored in a place where direct sunlight does not strike them. 3. Do not touch IC terminals with your hands. (2) At Replacement 1. Before removing connectors from a P.W.B., make sure the printer has been unplugged. 2. When P.W.B.s are taken out of their conductive bags or off their mats, hold them by their edges to avoid touching the terminals or the patterned surfaces. 3. Before installing connectors on a P.W.B., make sure the printer has been unplugged. (3) At Inspection 1. Avoid checking a P.W.B. with testers; instead, use operating parts of the printer, indicator lamps, and other means to evaluate operational conditions. 2. Be careful not to short-circuit IC terminals when using metal tools or screws. 3. If it is necessary to touch elements on the P.W.B. with your hand, make sure your body is properly grounded.

Paper Feeding: 1. The printer automatically feeds paper when the selected tray is loaded with paper. 2. The paper feeding is stopped if the selected tray is not loaded with paper or when it runs out of paper. The printer resumes the print cycle as soon as paper is added to the tray. 4. Select Tray 1 and Universal for the size. This allows you to use paper of a size different from those specified on the computer screen. 5. In automatic feeding, paper of the sizes specified on the screen are selected in the order of Tray 2, Tray 3, and Tray 1. An empty tray can be loaded with paper during a print cycle. The trays are not automatically selected if SPECIAL PAPER, JOB SEPARATION, or UNIVERSAL is selected. 6. If a misfeed occurs during JOB SEPARATION of Tray 1, printing is not retried.

Paper empty error When the message "Load (tray) (paper)" appears, the printer stops and goes off-line. - Press the Proceed key and paper is fed from the same tray as before. - Press the Shift + Enter/Reset keys to reset the printer and go on-line. - When the indicated paper size is loaded onto the indicated tray, the printer continues printing. - When the paper empty condition occurs in a tray not set under PAPER TRAY, the message "Tray 2 (or 3) Is Empty" appears. If the cassette is missing, the printer displays "Load (tray) No Tray". Manual Feed The printer displays the message "Manual Feed (paper)" and goes off-line when the data is received. - Manually insert a sheet of the indicated paper into Tray 1, press the On Line key, and printing begins. - When paper runs out (paper empty), press the On Line key to restart printing. - Paper Jam: Start of print is after the Jam has been cleared, close the Upper Unit or the Duplex Cover. - There is no paper size detection after a "Paper Jam 5, Size" is reset. - Does not page insertion at the after manual feed print. NOTE: Press the Shift + Enter/Reset keys to reset the printer and go on-line. Engine error - When the "Paper Jam 5, Size" error occurs, check the paper size and open and close the Upper Unit. - Printing is always recovered after a misfeed for PCL data. - Printing is only recovered after a misfeed if JAM RECOVER is set to ON for PS data. Interface error - When the message "Bi-Cen Overflow" (I/O buffer overflow) appears, printing continues. The printer goes to "Ready" at the press of any key or the reception of the next job data. - When data comes in from both the parallel and network ports, the printer automatically selects the port at which data is detected first. - While printing from one port, data is received from the other port and stored in the I/O buffer until the buffer is filled. - Centronics I/F error: Set-up High Speed = "OFF", Bi-Direction = "OFF", Timing = "B-A". Memory error - The "Image Adapt" problem and its data compression occur before a "Memory Overflow" problem.
