    2. PRECAUTIONS FOR INSTALLATION

    2-1. Installation Site

    To ensure safety and utmost performance of the copier, the copier sho

    place:• Where it will be subjected to extremely high or low temperature or h

    • Where it will be subjected to sudden fluctuations in either temperatu

    • Which is exposed to direct sunlight.

    • Which is in the direct air stream of an air conditioner, heater, or ven

    • Which has poor ventilation or is dusty.

    • Which does not have a stable, level floor or where it will receive und

    • Which is near any kind of heating device.• Which is near volatile flammables (thinner, gasoline, etc.).

    • Where it may be splashed with water.

    • Which puts the operator in the direct stream of exhaust from the co

    • Where ammonia gas might be generated.

    2-2. Power Source

    • If any other electrical equipment is sourced from the same power o

    the capacity of the outlet is not exceeded.

    • Use a power source with little voltage fluctuation.

    • Never connect by means of a multiple socket any other appliances

    outlet being used for the copier.

    • Ensure that the copier does not ride on the power cord or communi

    electrical equipment, and that it does not become wedged into or un

    nism.

    • Make the following checks at frequent intervals:

    ✽ Is the power plug abnormally hot?

    ✽ Are there any cracks or scrapes in the cord?

    ✽ Has the power plug been inserted fully into the outlet?

    ✽ Does something, including the copier itself, ride on the power cord?

    Use an outlet with a capacity of 115/120 V, 15 A or more. 200-220 V,

    2-3. Grounding

    • Always ground the copier to prevent receiving electrical shocks in th

    leakage.

    3. PRECAUTIONS FOR USE

    3-1. To ensure that the copier is used in an optim

    • Never place a heavy object on the copier or subject the copier to sh

    • Insert the power plug all the way into the outlet.• Do not attempt to remove any panel or cover which is secured while

    copies.

    • Do not turn OFF the copier while it is making copies.

    • Provide good ventilation when making a large number of copies con

    • Never use flammable sprays near the copier.

    • If the copier becomes inordinately hot or produces abnormal noise,

    unplug it.• Do not turn ON the power switch at the same time when you plug th

    outlet.

    • When unplugging the power cord, do not pull on the cord; hold the

    • Do not bring any magnetized object near the copier.

    • Do not place a vase or vessel containing water on the copier.

    • Be sure to turn OFF the power switch at the end of the workday or u

    • Use care not to drop paper clips, staples, or other small pieces of m

    3-2. Operating Environment

    The operating environmental requirements of the copier are as follows

    • Temperature: 10 to 32 °C

    • Humidity: 15 to 85 %

    • Rate of temperature change: 10 °C/h

    • Rate of humidity change: 10 %/h

    3-3. Power Requirements

    The power source voltage requirements are as follows.

    • Voltage fluctuation: AC 115, 120, 220, 240 V

    ± 10 % (copying performance assured)

    (paper feeding performance assured)

    • Frequency fluctuation: 50/60 Hz ± 0.3 Hz

    4. HANDLING OF CONSUMABLES

    Before using any consumables, always read the label on its container

    • Paper can be easily damaged by dampness. To prevent absorption

    paper, which has been removed from its wrapper but not loaded in tsealed plastic bag in a cool, dark place.

    • Keep consumables out of the reach of children.

    • Do not touch the PC Drum with bare hands.

    • The same sized paper is of two kinds, short grain and long grain. S

    should only be fed through the copier crosswise, long grain paper s

    lengthwise.

    • If your hands become soiled with toner, wash them with soap and w

    • Do not throw away any used consumables (PC Drum, starter, toner,

    collected.

    • Do not burn, bury in the ground, or throw into the water any consum

    starter, toner, etc.).

    • Do not store consumables in a place which:

    ✽ Is hot and humid.

    ✽ Is subject to direct sunlight.

    ✽ Has an open flame nearby.

    5. OTHER PRECAUTIONS

    Use the following precautions when performing service jobs for a copi

    • When a service job needs to be performed in the laser beam path, s

    around the printerhead or PC Drum, be sure first to unplug the pow

    from the outlet.• If the job requires that the power cord be left plugged in, observe th

    tions.

    • Take off your watch, ring and any other reflective object and wear la

    gles.

    • Keep users away from the job site.

    Drum.3. The phototransistor outputs a voltage corresponding to the intensi

    reflected back.

    1. AIDC Sensor Coarse Adjustment• The following adjustment is made to prevent the AIDC Sensor outpu

    ing from the specified range due to part-to-part variations in the AID

    tion, circuit, deterioration, etc.).• The load resistance value is set with the 4-bit analog switch so that

    2. AIDC Sensor Fine Adjustment• The following adjustment is made to prevent the AIDC Sensor outp

    varied by toner or other contamination of the sensor.

    • The LED current value of the AIDC Sensor is varied so that the AIDage becomes 1 volt in terms of the background level to be erased.

    3.  ∆V Control• Drum deterioration and environmental factors may lead to a drop in

    drum surface potential, resulting in ID loss.• To correct for this, grid voltage (Vg) and bias voltage (Vb) are adjust

    sensor output voltage into the range between 4.40 V (lighter) to 4.4

    4. Grid Voltage Control (Vg)• This control corrects for a loss in drum surface potential caused by

    (loss of surface material). Correction is made by increasing the Vg b
