6. Remarks Operation Notes General Cautions • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • While printing, do not turn off the main switch. While printing, do not open the door or covers. While printing, do not unplug the power cord. While printing, do not move the machine. Keep corrosive liquids, such as acid, off the machine. Open and close the door and covers softly. Do not put anything except originals on the machine. Do not spill liquid on the machine.
Remarks • When the machine is used in low temperature conditions, the image density might decrease. In this case, slow the printing speed down to step 1 or 2. • When making duplex prints, misdetection of paper wrapping might occur if the paper delivery sensor detects a black area at the leading edge of the back side. Keep at least an 5 mm, 0.2" margin at the leading edge of the back side of the printing paper. • Press the {Proof} key to perform a test print as the first few prints might be light.
Operation Notes • While making a master, do not leave the exposure glass cover or optional Auto Document Feeder open. • In Letter/Photo mode, moire patterns might occur when screened originals are printed. In this case, make prints in Letter or Photo mode. • When you use originals with light lettering, edges of the letters might be printed clearly and the inside of the letters might be light. In this case, increase the image density. • When marks on the printing paper occur, clean the paper feed roller.
Remarks Where to Put Your Machine Your machine's location should be carefully chosen because environmental conditions greatly affect its performance. Environmental Conditions Optimum environmental conditions R CAUTION: • Keep the machine away from humidity and dust.
