The Optra Color 45 has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a 
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject 
to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interfer-
ence, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired operation.

The FCC Class B limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against 
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses 
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accor-
dance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communica-
tions. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a 
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio 
or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off 
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of 
the following measures:

• 

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• 

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• 

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to 

which the receiver is connected.

• 

Consult your point of purchase or service representative for additional 

suggestions.

The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or television interference 
caused by using other than recommended cables or by unauthorized changes or 
modifications to this equipment. Unauthorized changes or modifications could 
void the user's authority to operate this equipment.

Note:

To assure compliance with FCC regulations on electromagnetic interference 

for a Class B computing device, use a properly shielded and grounded 
cable such as Lexmark part number 1329605. Use of a substitute cable not
