Safety Information, 120-Volt Models
Your OKI printer has been carefully designed to give you
years of safe, reliable performance. As with all electrical
equipment, there are a few basic precautions you should
take to avoid hurting yourself or damaging the printer.
• Carefully read the provided setup and operating
instructions.
• Save all provided documentation for future reference.
• Read and follow all warning and instruction labels on the
printer itself.
• Unplug the printer before you clean it. Use only a damp
cloth; do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
• Place your printer on a firm, solid surface. If you put it on
something unsteady, it may fall and be damaged. If you
place it on a soft surface, such as a rug, sofa, or cushion,
the vents may be blocked, causing the printer to overheat.
• Protect your printer from overheating. Make sure no
obstructions block the openings of the printer. Do not put
the printer on or near a heat source (such as a radiator or
heat register). Keep the printer out of direct sunlight.
• Always use this printer in a well ventilated area. Allow
enough room around the printer for adequate ventilation
and easy access to the paper trays. If you put the printer
in any kind of enclosure, make sure the enclosure is well
ventilated.
• Do not use your printer near water. Do not spill liquid of
any kind into it.
• Be certain that your power source matches the rating
listed on the printer. If you are not sure, check with your
dealer or with your local power company.
• Do not connect this product to an uninterruptible power
supply (UPS). For further information please contact Oki
Data at 1-800-OKI-DATA or

.
• Your printer has a grounded, three-prong plug as a safety
feature. This plug only fits into a grounded outlet. If the
plug does not fit, the outlet may be an older,
non-grounded type. Contact an electrician to have the
outlet replaced. Do not use an adapter to defeat the
grounding.
• Install the printer near an easily accessed power outlet.
• Avoid damaging the power cord. Do not put anything on it
or place it where it will be walked on. If the cord becomes
damaged or frayed, replace it immediately.
• If you are using an extension cord or power strip with the
printer, make sure that the total of the amperes required
by all the equipment on the extension is less than the
extension’s rating. The total ratings of all equipment
plugged into the outlet should not exceed 15 amperes.
• Do not poke anything into the ventilation slots of the
printer. You could get an electrical shock or cause
hazardous electrical arcing, which could cause a fire.
• CAUTION: There is a risk of explosion if a battery is
replaced by the incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries
according to the instructions.
• Aside from the routine maintenance described in the
documentation, do not try to service the printer yourself.
Removing the cover may expose you to shocks or other
hazards.
• Do not make any adjustments other than those outlined in
the documentation. You may cause damage that will
require extensive repair work. The provided
documentation explains how to get your printer serviced
by qualified Oki Data technicians.
If anything happens that indicates that your printer is not
working properly or has been damaged, unplug it
immediately and follow the procedures in the provided
documentation for having your printer serviced.
Here are some of the things to look for.
• The power cord or plug is frayed or damaged.
• Liquid has been spilled into the printer, or the printer has
been exposed to water.
• The printer has been dropped, or the cabinet is damaged.
• The printer does not function normally when you are
following the operating instructions.
