MAINS PLUG WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

The mains lead of this equipment is already fitted with a mains plug which is either a non-rewireable (moulded) or a rewireable type. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved fuse to BS1362 marked or and of the same rating as the one removed from the plus must be used.

Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse on the moulded plug. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.

In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied either cut-off the moulded plug (If this type is fitted) or remove by undoing the screws if a rewireable plug is fitted and fit an appropriate type observing the wiring code below.

DANGER: The fuse should be removed from the cut-off plug and the plug destroyed immediately and disposed of in a safe manner. Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet as a serious electric shock may occur.

To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:

IMPORTANT: The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

GREEN-AND-YELLOW: Earth

BLUE: Neutral

BROWN: Live

As the colours of the wires in this mains lead may not correspond with coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

The wire which is coloured GREEN-AND-YELLOW must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E, or by the safety earth symbol ± , or coloured green or green-and-yellow.

The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black.

The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.

If you have any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

WARNING: THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED:

This copier has been designed to provide intuitive operating ease while requiring a minimum amount of space. To get full use of all copier features, be sure to familiarize yourself with this manual and the copier. For quick reference during copier use, keep this manual in a handy location.

Depending on the model purchases, your copier is equipped with a Single Pass Feeder (SPF), a Reverse Single Pass Feeder (R-SPF) and a 250-sheet paper feed unit.

Improper installation may damage the copier. Please note the following during initial installation and whenever the copier is moved.

If the copier is moved from a cool place to a warm place, condensation may form inside the copier. Operation in this condition will cause poor copy quality and malfunctions. Leave the copier at room temperature for at least 2 hours before use.

SHARP AL-1252 - CONTENTS INHALT - 1

natural_image Illustration of a printer emitting a screen to its side, with no visible text or symbols.
  1. Do not install your copier in areas that are:

  2. damp, humid, or very dusty

  3. exposed to direct sunlight
  4. poorly ventilated
  5. subject to extreme temperature or humidity changes, e.g., near an air conditioner or heater.

  6. Be sure to allow the required space around the machine for servicing and proper ventilation.

  7. Do not expose the drum cartridge to direct sunlight.

Doing so will damage the surface (green portion) of the drum cartridge, causing smudges on copies.

  1. Store spare supplies such as drum cartridges and TD cartridges in a dark place without removing from the package before use.
    If they are exposed to direct sunlight, smudges on copies may result.
  2. Do not touch directly the surface (green portion) of the drum cartridge with a hand.
    Doing so will damage the surface of the cartridge, causing smudges on copies.

A small amount of ozone is produced within the copier during operation. The emission level is insufficient to cause any health hazard.

The present recommended long term exposure limit for ozone is 0.1 ppm (0.2 mg/m ^3 ) calculated as an 8 hr. Time weighted average concentration. However, since the small amount that is emitted may have an objectionable odor, it is advisable to place the copier in a ventilated area.

  1. Ensure that the power switch of the copier is in the OFF position. Insert the attached power cord into the power cord socket at the rear of the copier.

If you use the copier in a country other than the country where the copier was purchased, you will need to make sure that your local power supply is compatible with your model. If you plug the copier into an incompatible power supply, severe damage to the copier may result.

  1. Plug the other end of the power cord into the nearest outlet.

Only insert the power cord into a properly grounded wall socket.

natural_image Line drawing of a mechanical device with a magnified inset showing a labeled component (no text or symbols present)

The settings of the power save modes can be modified. See page 1-22, USER PROGRAMS.

The copier will return to the initial settings a preset amount of time after the last copy is made. The preset amount of time (auto clear time) can be changed. See page 1-22, USER PROGRAMS.

The copier assumes the initial settings when the copier is turned on or a preset time (auto clear time) elapses after the last copy is made.

  • The fusing area is hot. Exercise care in this area when removing misfed paper.
  • Do not look directly at the light source. Doing so may damage your eyes.
  • Do not switch the copier rapidly on and off. After turning the copier off, wait 10 to 15 seconds before turning it back on.
  • Copier power must be turned off before installing any supplies.
  • Place the copier on a firm, level surface.
  • Do not install the copier in a humid or dusty location.
  • When the copier is not used for long time, for example during prolonged holidays, turn the power switch off and remove the power cord from the outlet.
  • When moving the copier, be sure to turn the power switch off and remove the power cord from the outlet.
  • Do not cover the copier with a dust cover, cloth or plastic film while the power is on. Doing so may prevent heat radiation, damaging the copier.

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Power save modes (page 1-22)

The copier has two power save modes of operation: preheat mode and auto power shut-off mode.

Preheat mode

When the copier enters the preheat mode, the power save ( ① ) indicator will light up and other indicators will remain on or off as before. In this condition, the fuser in the copier is maintained at a lower heat level, thereby saving power. To copy from the preheat mode, make desired copier selections and press the print ( ⑧ ) key using the normal copying procedure.

Auto power shut-off mode

When the copier enters the auto power shut-off mode, the power save (☐) indicator will light up and other indicators will go out. The auto power shut-off mode saves more power than the preheat mode but requires a longer time before starting copying. To copy from the auto power shut-off mode, press the print (☐) key. Then make desired copier selections and press the print (☐) key using the normal copying procedure.

Auto clear (page 1-22)

The copier returns to the initial settings a preset amount of time after the last copy is made. This preset amount of time (auto clear time) can be changed.

Acute Toxicity

Ingestion (oral) : LD50 > 2000mg/kg (Rats)

Dermal : LD 50 > 2000mg/kg (rats

Inhalation : No data

Eye irritation : Not an irritant

Skin irritation : Not an irritant

Mutagenicity

Carcinogenicity

: Negative (Ames Test)

: In 1996 the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a Group 2B carcinogen (possible human carcinogen). This classification is given to chemicals for which there is inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal evidence on which to base an opinion of carcinogenicity. The classification is based upon the development of lung tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures to free carbon black at levels that induce particle overload of the lung. Studies performed in animal models other than rats did not show any association between carbon black and lung tumors.

Moreover, a two-year cancer bioassay using a typical toner preparation containing carbon black demonstrated no association between toner exposure and tumor development in rats.

Chronic Effects

: In a study in rats of chronic inhalation exposure to a typical toner, a mild to moderate degree of lung fibrosis was observed in 92% of the rats in the high concentration (16mg/m ^3 ) exposure group, and a minimal to mild degree of fibrosis was noted in 22% of the animals in the middle (4mg/m ^3 ) exposure group, but no pulmonary change was reported in the lowest (1mg/m ^3 ) exposure group, the most relevant level to potential human exposures.
