Laser safety

The Xerox 4050/4090/4450/4650 Laser Printing Systems (LPS) are

certified to comply with laser performance standards set by the

U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare and by IEC

825 for non-U.S. markets as a Class 1 laser product. This is a

class of laser products that does not emit hazardous radiation.

This is possible only because the laser beam is inaccessible

during all modes of customer operation.

WARNING: Use of controls or adjustments, or performances

other than specified herein, may result in hazardous radiation

exposure.

Operational safety

Your Xerox equipment and supplies are designed and tested to

meet strict safety requirements. These requirements include

safety agency examination, approval, and compliance with

established environmental standards. Attention to the following

notes ensures the continued safe operation of your equipment.

U.S. only: If you need any additional safety information

concerning the equipment or if you need Xerox-supplied

materials, call the following toll-free number: 1-800-828-6571.

Always:

• Connect equipment to a properly grounded power source

receptacle. If in doubt, have the receptacle checked by a

qualified electrician.

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment

grounding conductor can result in electrical shock.

• Place equipment on a solid support surface with adequate

strength for the weight of the machine.

• Use materials and supplies designed specifically for your

Xerox equipment.

WARNING: Use of unsuitable materials may result in poor

performance and can possibly create a hazardous condition.

Never:

• Move or relocate the printer or the system controller without

first contacting Xerox for approval.

• Use a ground adaptor plug to connect equipment to a power

resource receptacle that lacks a ground connection terminal.

NOTICES

• Attempt any maintenance function that is not specifically

described in this guide.

• Remove any covers or guards that are fastened with screws.

There are no operator-serviceable areas within these covers.

• Override or “cheat” electrical or mechanical interlock devices.

• Use supplies or cleaning materials for other than their

intended purposes.

• Operate the equipment if unusual noises or odors are

noticed. Disconnect the power cord from the power source

receptacle and call your Xerox service representative to

correct the problem.

Ozone information

This product produces ozone during normal operation. The

ozone produced is dependent on copy volume and is heavier

than air. Providing the proper environmental parameters as

specified in the Xerox installation intructions ensures that

concentration levels meet safe levels.

U.S. only: If you need additional ozone information, request the

Xerox publication, Ozone, by calling Xerox Product Safety at the

following toll-free number: 1-800-828-6571.

Radio communication

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the

limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC

Rules, for U.S. markets, and with the EEC 82/449 standard for

VDE 08791 Class A device, for non-U.S. markets. These limits are

designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful

interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial

environment.

CAUTION: This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate

radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in

accordance with this guide, may cause harmful interference to

radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a

residental area is likely to cause harmful interference that users

are required to correct at their own expense.
