Safety Information
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. 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 properly
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 back of the printer. If you are not sure, check with
your dealer or with your local power company.
• 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.
• 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 has been
damaged.
– The printer doesn’t function normally when you are
following the operating instructions
Safety Compliance
This product conforms the following safety standards:
• UL1950
• CSA C22.2 No. 950
• EN 60950
• IEC 950
Class 1 Laser Device and CDRH
Compliance
This 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 Radiation
Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968. This certification
indicates that the printer does not emit hazardous laser
radiation. Since radiation emitted inside the printer is
completely confined within the protective housings and
external covers, the laser beam cannot escape from the
machine during any phase of user operation.
The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration implemented
regulations for laser products on August 1976. These
regulations apply to laser products marketed in the United
States. The label on the printer indicates compliance with the
CDRH regulations and must be attached to laser products
marketed in the United States.
EMC Standards
This product also conforms to the following EMC standards:
• VCCI V-3/97.04
• AS/NZS 3548:1995 including A1:1997 and A2:1997
