Notes on Usage of the Machine
- Avoid taking the following actions close to or inside this machine because doing so can result in fire or electric shock:
Using flammable sprays, solvents, and so on
Placing flammable sprays, solvents, and so on
Placing containers holding liquids or small metal objects
- Do not obstruct the machine's vents. Doing so can result in fire as the internal components are overheated.
- When disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, make sure to pull the plug, not the cord. Do not pull the power cord forcibly. Doing so can damage the power cord, possibly resulting in fire or electric shock.
- If you do not use the machine for a long period of time such as consecutive holidays, be sure to disconnect the power cord plug from the wall outlet for reasons of safety.
If the cooling fan unit is installed on the finisher, do not turn off the cooling fan unit while the machine is on. The fan in the cooling fan unit stops automatically after printing is complete.
The fan inside the machine near the vents may continue running to cool the machine after a large print job. While the fan is running, do not turn off the main power nor disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.
Check that the remaining amount of memory is at 100% on the fax screen before turning off the power of the machine or removing its power plug from the wall outlet. If you leave the machine turned off or unplugged from the wall outlet for more than one hour, all documents stored in the memory of the fax will be erased. If a document has been erased, the machine prints a "Power Off Report" automatically when you turn on the power of the machine the next time. You can view the list of deleted documents in this report.
When scanning multiple originals continuously, the surface of the exposure glass may get hot. This is not a malfunction.
The area around the vents might feel warm. This is caused by exhaust air and is not a malfunction.
A change in temperature may cause dew condensation to occur inside the machine. If condensation occurs, leave the machine be for more than two hours and allow it to adapt to the environment before use. Also, use the anti-humidity heater to prevent condensation from occurring.
Do not turn off the power of the machine while a process is in progress. Before turning off the machine, check that all operations and processes are completed.
Do not open the covers or paper source tray while a process is in progress. A paper jam may occur.
Do not move or tilt the machine while the power is on, and do not expose the machine to vibration.
Ventilation
When you use this machine in a confined space without good ventilation for a long time or print large quantities, you might detect an odd smell.
This might cause the output paper to also have an odd smell.
When you detect an odd smell, regularly ventilate in order to keep the workplace comfortable.
Set up the machine so that it does not directly ventilate towards people.
Ventilation should be more than 30 m3/hr/person.
New machine smell
When a machine is new, it might have a unique smell. This smell will subside in about one week.
When you detect an odd smell, sufficiently ventilate and circulate the air in the room.
