Consumable Safeguards
WARNING!
CAUTION!
Do not place a magnet near the safety switch of the machine. A magnet can activate the machine accidentally, 
resulting in injuries.
Do not use a highly flammable spray or solvent near the machine. It can cause fire.
Never touch a labelled area found on or near the heat roller. You can get burnt. If a sheet of paper is wrapped 
around the heat roller, do not try to remove it yourself to avoid injuries or burns. Switch Off the machine 
immediately, and contact your authorized Panasonic dealer.
Do not use conductive paper, e.g. folding paper, carbonic paper and coated paper. When a paper jam occurs, 
they can cause a short circuit and fire.
Do not place any heavy object on the machine. An off-balance machine can tip-over or the heavy object can 
fall, causing damage and/or injuries.
Keep the room ventilated when using the machine for an extended period of time to minimize the ozone density 
in the air.
Pull out paper trays slowly to prevent injuries.
When removing jammed paper, make sure that no pieces of torn paper are left in the machine. A piece of paper 
remaining in the machine can cause fire. If a sheet of paper is wrapped around the heat roller, or when clearing 
a jammed paper that is difficult or impossible to see, do not try to remove it by yourself. Doing so can cause 
injuries or burns. Switch Off the machine immediately, and contact your authorized Panasonic dealer.
Never throw a toner cartridge into an open flame. Toner remaining in the cartridge can cause an explosion and 
you can get burnt.
Never throw toner or a waste toner container or a toner cartridge into an open flame. It can cause an explosion 
and you can get burnt.
Keep button batteries/verification stamp out of the reach of children. If a button battery/stamp is swallowed 
accidentally, get medical treatment immediately.
Never heat the drum cartridge, or scratch its surface. A heated or scratched drum can be hazardous to your 
health.
Be sure to use the specified type of batteries only.
Ensure that batteries are installed with correct polarity. Incorrectly installed batteries can burst or leak, resulting 
in spillage or injuries.

Precautions
For Your Safety
QThe maximum power consumption is 1000 W. 
A properly wired (grounded), dedicated, 15A, 120V AC outlet is required. Do not use an extension cord. 
The power cord on this machine must be used to disconnect the main power. 
Please ensure that the machine is installed near a wall outlet and is easily accessible.
Caution Note: Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before removing covers.
Supplies
QStore the Toner Cartridge and paper in cool areas with low humidity.
OPanasonic recommends using high quality 16 - 28 lb paper (Sheet Bypass: 16 - 44 lb), using an inferior paper may 
cause excessive paper curl, requiring you to empty out the Output Tray more often to avoid paper jams.
OFor optimum performance, it is recommended that only Panasonic Brand supplies are used in the machine.
OCertain types of transparency film may not be compatible and may damage your machine. 
Consult with an authorized Panasonic dealer for advice regarding non-standard paper types. 
(Panasonic has tested 3M CG3300 transparency film and found it to be compatible.)
QUse of other than genuine Panasonic supplies can damage the printer. Be sure to use only genuine Panasonic Toner 
Cartridge (UG-5530) designed for optimum performance. 
Average yield for the UG-5530 is approximately 5,000 pages (5% coverage).
Note:Average yield is based on 5% coverage of the printable area with repetitive printing of 10 pages (Letter/A4 size, 
single side printing, default density). The yield of a Toner Cartridge varies depending on the coverage, 
temperature, humidity, media, etc. Therefore, the average yield cannot be guaranteed. Continuously printing 10% 
coverage of printable area will reduce the yield of the Toner Cartridge to about half as compared to 5% coverage 
printing. The maximum yield of the Toner Cartridge will not exceed 6,000 pages.
Installation
QThe machine should not be installed in areas with the following conditions:
OExtremely high or low temperature and humidity. 
Ambient conditions: 
Temperature: 50 – 86 °F 
Relative humidity: 30 – 80 %
OWhere temperature and humidity can change rapidly, causing condensation.
ODirect exposure to sunlight. ODirectly in the air conditioning flow.
OIn areas of high dust concentration. OIn areas of poor ventilation.
OIn areas with chemical fume concentration. OIn areas with extreme vibration.
OWith unstable or uneven conditions (floors, etc.).
Illegal Copies
It is unlawful to make copies of certain documents.
Copying certain documents may be illegal in your country. Penalties of fines and/or imprisonment may be imposed on 
those found guilty. The following are examples of items that may be illegal to copy in your country.
OCurrency
OBank notes and checks
OBank and government bonds and securities
OPassports and identification cards
OCopyright material or trademarks without the consent of the owner
OPostage stamps and other negotiable instruments
This list is not inclusive and no liability is assumed for either its completeness or accuracy. 
In case of doubt, contact your legal counsel.
Notice: 
Install your machine near a supervised area to prevent illegal copies from being made.
