User Safety
Your printer and the recommended supplies have been designed and tested to meet strict 
safety requirements. Attention to the following information ensures the continued safe 
operation of your printer.
Electrical Safety
• Use the power cord supplied with your printer.
• Plug the power cord directly into a properly grounded electrical outlet. Make sure each 
end of the cord is securely connected. If you do not know if an outlet is grounded, ask 
an electrician to check the outlet.
• Do not use a ground adapter plug to connect the printer to an electrical outlet that 
does not have a ground connection terminal.
• Do not use an extension cord or power strip.
• Verify that the printer is plugged into an outlet that is capable of providing the correct 
voltage and power. Review the printer’s electrical specification with an electrician if 
necessary.
Warning:Avoid the potential of electrical shock by ensuring that the printer is properly 
grounded. Electrical products may be hazardous if misused.
• Do not place the printer in an area where people might step on the power cord.
• Do not place objects on the power cord.
• Do not block the ventilation openings. These openings are provided to prevent 
overheating of the printer.
• Do not drop paper clips or staples into the printer.
Warning:Do not push objects into slots or openings on the printer. Making contact with a 
voltage point or shorting out a part could result in fire or electrical shock.
If you notice unusual noises or odors:
1. Turn off the printer immediately.
2. Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet. 
3. Call an authorized service representative to correct the problem.
The power cord is attached to the printer as a plug-in device at the back of the printer. If it 
is necessary to disconnect all electrical power from the printer, disconnect the power cord 
from the electrical outlet.
Warning:Do not remove the covers or guards that are fastened with screws unless you are 
installing optional equipment and are specifically instructed to do so. Power should be OFF 
when performing these installations. Except for user-installable options, there are no parts 
that you can maintain or service behind these covers.

• Liquid is spilled into the printer.
• The printer is exposed to water.
If any of these conditions occur, do the following:
1. Turn off the printer immediately.
2. Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.
3. Call an authorized service representative.
Laser Safety
With specific regard to lasers, this printer complies with laser product performance 
standards set by governmental, national, and international agencies and is certified as a 
Class 1 Laser Product. The printer does not emit hazardous light because the beam is 
totally enclosed during all modes of customer operation and maintenance.
Maintenance Safety
• Do not attempt any maintenance procedure that is not specifically described in the 
documentation supplied with your printer.
• Do not use aerosol cleaners. The use of supplies that are not approved may cause poor 
performance and could create a hazardous condition.
• Do not attempt to open, reuse, or burn any consumables or routine maintenance 
items. For information on Xerox supplies recycling programs, go to

10 Humidity should be 70 percent or below at 90° F, and temperature should be 82° F or 
below at 85 percent humidity.
Note:Sudden temperature fluctuations can affect print quality. Rapid heating of a cold 
room can cause condensation inside the machine, directly interfering with image transfer.
Printer Clearance
Place the printer in an area where there is adequate space for ventilation, operation, and 
servicing. The recommended minimal spacing is:
Overhead Clearance:
• 35 cm (13.8 in.) above the printer
Total Height Requirements:
• Printer: 47 cm (18.5 in.)
• Add 14 cm (5.5 in.) for the 550-Sheet Feeder.
Other Clearances:
• 13 cm (5 in.) behind the printer
• 60 cm (23.6 in.) in front of the printer
• 10 cm (3.9 in.) on the left side of the printer
• 10 cm (3.9 in.) on the right side of the printer
Operational Guidelines
• Do not block or cover the slots and openings on the printer. The printer may overheat 
without adequate ventilation.
• For optimum performance, use the printer at elevations below 3,500 m (11,480 ft.).
• Do not place the printer near a heat source.
• Do not place the printer in direct sunlight to avoid exposing light-sensitive components 
when the doors are open.
• Do not place the printer in line with the cold air flow from an air conditioning system.
