Laser Safety (120 V Model Only)
This printer is certified as a Class I 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 means that the printer does not produce hazardous laser radiation.
Since radiation emitted inside the printer is completely confined within protective housings and external
covers, the laser beam cannot escape from the machine during any phase of user operation. However, the
machine contains 5-milliwat, 700-800 nanometer wavelength, GaAIAs laser diodes. Direct (or indirect
reflected) eye contact with the laser beam might cause serious eye damage. Safety precautions and interlock
mechanisms have been designed to prevent any possible laser beam exposure to the operator.
FDA Regulations (For 120 V Model Only)
U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has implemented regulations for laser products manufactured on and
after August 2, 1976. Compliance is mandatory for products marketed in the United States. The label shown on
the back of the printer indicates compliance with the FDA regulations and must be attached to laser products
marketed in the United States.
Caution:
Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified in this
manual may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
