Prevention of Physical Injury
1. Before disassembling or assembling parts of the printer and peripherals, make sure that the printer
power cord is unplugged.
2. The wall outlet should be near the printer and easily accessible.
3. If any adjustment or operation check has to be made with exterior covers off or open while the
main switch is turned on, keep hands away from electrified or mechanically driven components.
4. The printer drives some of its components when it completes the warm-up period. Be careful to
keep hands away from the mechanical and electrical components as the printer starts operation.
5. The inside and the metal parts of the fusing unit become extremely hot while the printer is operating.
Be careful to avoid touching those components with your bare hands.
Health Safety Conditions
Toner is non-toxic, but if you get either of them in your eyes by accident, it may cause temporary eye
discomfort. Try to remove with eye drops or flush with water as first aid. If unsuccessful, get medical
attention.
Observance of Electrical Safety Standards
The printer and its peripherals must be serviced by a customer service representative who has completed
the training course on those models.
