General cautions
Do not touch the safety switch inside the machine. Doing so may cause electric shock when high voltage
occurs. In addition, gears can rotate, which may result in personal injury.
Do not use an inflammable spray near the machine. Doing so may cause a fire since there is an area heating up
within the machine.
Unplug the power cord from the outlet and contact your dealer if the cover becomes abnormally hot, emits
smoke, smells strange, or makes an abnormal noise.
Failure to do so may cause fire.

Doing so may cause electric shock, fire or injury.
Unplug the power cord from the outlet and contact your dealer if the machine is dropped or the cover is
damaged.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock, fire or injury.
Periodically disconnect the power plug from the outlet and clean the base of the prongs and between the
prongs.
Leaving the power plug inside the outlet for a long period of time may cause a fire due to short circuit caused by
collection of dust at the base of the prongs.
Do not clean up spilled toner using an electric vacuum cleaner. When spilled toner is cleaned up using an
electric vacuum cleaner, a fire may be caused due to sparks from electrical contacts.
If toner is spilled on the floor, wipe the toner up carefully using a damp cloth to prevent toner scattering.

Connecting via a wireless LAN
Connect this machine and a PC via a wireless LAN to print.
Wired LAN1 and wireless LAN can be used at the same time. If wired LAN1 and wireless LAN are connected to the
same subnet, the communication may be unstable.
Do not place an electric appliance (especially microwave oven or digital cordless telephone) that emits weak
electronic waves near this machine.
Wireless LAN connection may be inferior in communication speed compared to wired LAN connection or USB
connection depending on the environment. When printing large data such as photos, we recommend you to print via
a wired LAN or USB connection.
If detailed settings such as security and server are required, set them from the web page of this machine.

The paper is wrapped in moisture-proof paper to prevent moisture. Please use the paper as early as possible after
opening its package.
Wrap unused paper in the wrapping paper, and keep it away from moisture absorption as much as possible.
If it is used beyond the normal room temperature (temperature: 17°C to 25°C; humidity: 40% to 60%), the printing
quality may be degraded or problems may occur such as paper jams, wrinkles, curls, and warpage.
- 74 -
Depending on the installation environment of the machine, printing on paper that contains moisture may cause white
steam or water droplets to appear around the paper exit area of the machine. This is not abnormal because the heat
generated when the toner is fixed to the paper evaporates the moisture contained in the paper.
Inapplicable paper
Do not use the following types of paper. Doing so may cause paper jams or malfunction.
Paper with smooth surface, rough paper, and paper with different front and back roughness
Paper that is too thin or too thick
Paper with much paper dust
Short grain paper (Do not use for vertical feeding.)
Wet (damp) paper
Paper with curl, curve or wave due to humidity
Paper stuck by static electricity
Paper and envelopes that have been textured, embossed or coated
Paper specially processed with glue, chemicals, etc.
Paper specially processed without heat resistance (230°C)
Paper with holes, perforations, notches, holes for binder
Paper that has irregularities, crushing, burrs, etc. on the paper cut surface

Be sure to set the paper size to portrait length. The portrait length cannot be set to a value shorter than
the landscape length.
Some applications may not be available.
Even when using under the recommended conditions, the long paper with a length exceeding 356 mm
may not be able to guarantee the print quality.

For the paper size that can be fed from each tray and the paper size that can be printed on both sides,
please refer to "Applicable paper ".
If you cannot print correctly on a large-sized paper, it is suggested to set [Quality] to [Normal] in the PS
printer driver.
Always perform trial printing and check that there are no problems.

To use the access control function, the administrator of this machine registers the user information, sets the
authentication method, and enables access control.
For preparations before using the access control function, please refer to " Preparations (For the administrator) ".
If you have been authenticated but cannot operate, check with the administrator if the operation is permitted.

Precautions for replacing consumables
Note the following points during the replacement.
Do not throw the toner, toner cartridge or waste toner box into fire. Toner may fly off, thus causing burns.
Do not store the toner cartridge and waste toner box in a place with fire. Doing so may cause a fire or burns.
Do not clean up spilled toner using an electric vacuum cleaner. When spilled toner is cleaned up using an
electric vacuum cleaner, a fire may be caused due to sparks from electrical contacts. Wipe off and remove the
toner spilled on the floor using a wet cloth.
As the fuser unit may be hot, be cautious during operation and always hold the handle to lift it. When it is hot,
wait until it cools down before any operation.
There are high-temperature parts inside the machine. Do not touch the area with the "Caution: High
Temperature" label. Doing so may cause burns.
Keep the toner cartridge and waste toner box out of the reach of children. If children swallow toner by mistake,
immediately consult a physician.
When toner is inhaled, gargle with a lot of water and move the person to a place with fresh air. Consult a
physician as necessary.
When toner gets contact with the skin of your hands etc., wash it off with soapy water.
If toner gets into your eyes, immediately wash it off with a large quantity of water. Consult a physician as
necessary.
When clearing a paper jam or replacing the toner cartridge and the waste toner box, take care that your hands
and clothes are not stained with toner. When clothes are stained with toner, wash them in cold water. Heating it
like washing in hot water may dye the toner on clothes, and the stains may not be removed easily.
Do not disassemble the image drum, toner cartridge, waste toner box or belt unit. Doing so may scatter the
toner, which may be inhaled by people or may stain clothes or hands.
Store the used toner cartridge and the waste toner box in a bag so that toner does not scatter.

Service life and replacement cycle of consumables
Toner cartridge
Printing quality will decline after the toner cartridge stays unpacked for one year or longer. Therefore, prepare a new
toner cartridge.
Use genuine Printronix consumables for optimum performance.
Failures caused by using non-genuine consumables may void the warranty or maintenance contract. (The use of
non-genuine consumables will not necessarily cause failures, but please fully take notice of such usage.)
Printing under the following conditions may damage the image drum. Replace the toner cartridge immediately.
Opening and closing the front cover with toner empty
Printing in mono without cyan (blue), magenta (red) or yellow (yellow) toner
Replace the toner cartridge immediately when a message indicating replacement of the toner cartridge is displayed
and printing has stopped.
If you repeatedly open and close the front cover so that you can continue printing temporarily, a failure may be
caused or the print quality may be degraded.
In addition, after a certain period of time, printing will be disabled even if you open and close the front cover. (The
printable period of time varies with the usage condition.)
