Before You Start

Cautions

To avoid machine malfunction, do not use the equipment under the following conditions:

•Direct exposure to sunlight

•Extremely high or low temperature [temperature range: 10˚C to 32.5˚C (50˚F to 90.5˚F)]

•Extremely high or low humidity (humidity range: 20% to 80% RH)

•Condensation due to rapid change of temperature

•Areas of poor ventilation

•Areas of high dust or chemical fume concentration (solvent etc.)

• Unstable or unlevel surfaces

•Directly in front of air conditioning vents

• Liquids near the equipment

•Too much media which exceeds the limit mark on the guide of the tray.

•Front/right/left covers opened while the printer is operating. It may cause a media jam.

Genuine or Original

•We strongly recommend to use only the original Kyocera toner developer. Use of Kyocera toner developer assures the intended long term reliability of the printer.
