What Can I Do with This Machine?

Preface
Thank you for choosing a Canon product. Before using the machine, please read the 
following instructions for your safety.
Important Safety Instructions
Please read these “Important Safety Instructions” thoroughly before operating the 
machine. As these instructions are intended to prevent injury to the user or other persons 
or destruction of property, always pay attention to these instructions. Also, since it may 
result in unexpected accidents or injuries, do not perform any operation unless otherwise 
specified in the manual. Improper operation or use of this machine could result in personal 
injury and/or damage requiring extensive repair that may not be covered under your 
Limited Warranty.
Handling and Maintenance
Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the machine. There are high‑temperature and 
high‑voltage components inside the machine which may result in a fire or electrical 
shock.
If the machine makes strange noises, or gives off smoke, heat, or strange smells, 
immediately turn off the main power switch, and disconnect the power cord from the 
power outlet. Then, contact Canon Authorized Service Facilities or the Canon Customer 
Care Center. Continued use of the machine in this condition may result in a fire or 
electrical shock.
Do not use highly flammable sprays near the machine. If gas from these sprays comes 
into contact with the electrical components inside the machine, this may result in a fire or 
electrical shock.
To avoid damage to the power cord and creating a fire hazard, always turn off the main 
power switch, and unplug the interface cable when moving the machine. Otherwise, the 
power cord or interface cable may be damaged, resulting in a fire or electrical shock.

Do not drop paper clips, staples, or other metal objects inside the machine. Also, do 
not spill water, liquids, or flammable substances (alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, etc.) 
inside the machine. If these items come into contact with a high‑voltage area inside the 
machine, it may result in a fire or electrical shock. If these items are dropped or spilled 
inside the machine, immediately turn off the main power switch, and disconnect the 
power cord from the power outlet. Then contact Canon Authorized Service Facilities or 
the Canon Customer Care Center.
Do not place heavy objects on the machine, as they may tip over or fall resulting in 
personal injury.
Close the feeder gently to avoid catching your hands, as this may result in personal injury.
Do not press down hard on the feeder when using the platen glass to make copies of 
thick books. Doing so may damage the platen glass and result in personal injury. 
Do not put your hand close to the rollers on the output tray. The machine may suddenly 
begin to print even if it is not in operation, causing your clothing or fingers to become 
caught in the machine and resulting in injury.
If the laser beam escapes from the machine, exposure may cause serious damage to your 
eyes.
The laser beam can be harmful to human bodies. Since radiation emitted inside the 
product is completely confined within protective housings and external covers, the laser 
beam cannot escape from the machine during any phase of user operation. Read the 
following remarks and instructions for safety.
Be careful when removing printed paper from output trays or when aligning it, because it 
may be hot and result in burn injury.
Turn off the control panel power switch for safety when the machine will not be used 
for a long period of time, such as overnight. Also, turn off the main power switch, and 
disconnect the power cord for safety when the machine will not be used for an extended 
period of time, such as during consecutive holidays.

What Can I Do with This Machine?

Never open covers other than those instructed in this manual.
Do not remove the caution label attached to the fixing unit and the duplex unit.
When cleaning the machine, first turn off the main power switch, and then disconnect 
the power cord. Failure to observe these steps may result in a fire or electrical shock.
Disconnect the power cord from the power outlet regularly, and clean the area around 
the base of the power plug’s metal pins and the power outlet with a dry cloth to ensure 
that all dust and grime is removed. If the power cord is connected for a long period of 
time in a damp, dusty, or smoky location, dust can build up around the power plug and 
become damp. This may cause a short circuit and result in a fire.
Clean the machine using a slightly dampened cloth with a mild detergent mixed with 
water. Do not use alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, or other flammable substances. Check 
detergent for flammability prior to use. If flammable substances come into contact with a 
high‑voltage area inside the machine, it may result in a fire or electrical shock.
There are some area inside the machine which are subject to high‑ voltage. When 
removing jammed paper or when inspecting the inside of the machine, do not allow 
necklaces, bracelets, or other metal objects to touch the inside of the machine, as this 
may result in burns or electrical shock.
Do not burn or throw used cartridges into open flames, as this may cause the toner 
remaining inside the cartridges to ignite, resulting in burns or a fire.
