Laser safety

!Warning: Adjustments, use of controls, or performance of

procedures other than those specified herein may result in

hazardous light exposure.

The Xerox DocuPrint printers are certified to comply with the

performance standards of the U.S. Department of Health, Education,

and Welfare for Class 1 laser products. Class 1 laser products do not

emit hazardous radiation. The DocuPrint printers do not emit

hazardous radiation because the laser beam is completely enclosed

during all modes of customer operation.

The laser danger labels on the system are for Xerox service

representatives and are on or near panels or shields that must be

removed with a tool. DO NOT REMOVE LABELED PANELS OR

PANELS NEAR LABELS. ONLY XEROX SERVICE

REPRESENTATIVES HAVE ACCESS TO THESE PANELS.

Ozone information

This product produces ozone during normal operation. The amount

of ozone produced depends on copy volume. Ozone is heavier than

air. The environmental parameters specified in the Xerox installation

instructions ensure that concentration levels are within safe limits. If

you need additional information concerning ozone, call 1-800-828-

6571 to request the Xerox publication 600P83222, OZONE.

electrician.

!Warning: Improper connection of the equipment grounding

conductor may result in risk of electrical shock.

•Never use a ground adapter plug to connect equipment to an

electrical outlet that lacks a ground connection terminal.

•Always place equipment on a solid support surface with

adequate strength for its weight.

•Always use materials and supplies specifically designed for

your Xerox equipment. Use of unsuitable materials may result in

poor performance and may create a hazardous situation.

•Never move either the printer or the Printer Controller without

first contacting Xerox for approval.

•Never attempt any maintenance that is not specifically

described in this documentation.

•Never remove any covers or guards that are fastened with

screws. There are no operator-serviceable areas within these

covers.

•Never override electrical or mechanical interlocks.

•Never use supplies or cleaning materials for other than their

intended purposes. Keep all materials out of the reach of

children.

•Never operate the equipment if you notice unusual noises or

odors. Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet and

call service to correct the problem.

If you need any additional safety information concerning the

equipment or materials Xerox supplies, call Xerox Product Safety at
