Radio Frequency Emissions
FCC regulations
This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital 
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide 
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This 
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not 
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful 
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that 
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause 
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by 
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the 
interference by one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the 
receiver is connected.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
CAUTION: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer 
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

way. Modification to a wireless device will void the authorization to use 
it. Contact manufacturer for service.
FCC Statement for Wireless LAN use:
“While installing and operating this transmitter and antenna combination 
the radio frequency exposure limit of 1mW/cm2 may be exceeded at 
distances close to the antenna installed. Therefore, the user must  
maintain a minimum distance of 20cm from the antenna at all times. 
This device can not be colocated with another transmitter and 
transmitting antenna.”

Regulatory Compliance Statements
Wireless Guidance
Low power, Radio LAN type devices (radio frequency (RF) wireless communication 
devices), operating in the 2.4 GHz Band, may be present (embedded) in your printer 
system. The following section is a general overview of considerations while operating 
a wireless device.
Additional limitations, cautions, and concerns for specific countries are listed in the 
specific country sections (or country group sections). The wireless devices in your 
system are only qualified for use in the countries identified by the Radio Approval 
Marks on the system rating label. If the country you will be using the wireless device 
in, is not listed, please contact your local Radio Approval agency for requirements. 
Wireless devices are closely regulated and use may not be allowed.
The power output of the wireless device or devices that may be embedded in your 
printer is well below the RF exposure limits as known at this time. Because the 
wireless devices (which may be embedded into your printer) emit less energy than is 
allowed in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations, manufacturer 
believes these devices are safe for use. Regardless of the power levels, care should 
be taken to minimize human contact during normal operation.
As a general guideline, a separation of 20 cm (8 inches) between the wireless device 
and the body, for use of a wireless device near the body (this does not include 
”ownloadedJ6romJManualsPrinterLcomJManuals 
						

							13
extremities) is typical. This device should be used more than 20 cm (8 inches) from 
the body when wireless devices are on and transmitting.
This transmitter must not be collocated or operation in conjunction with any other 
antenna or transmitter.
Some circumstances require restrictions on wireless devices. Examples of common 
restrictions are listed below:
Radio frequency wireless communication can interfere with equipment 
on commercial aircraft. Current aviation regulations require wireless 
devices to be turned off while traveling in an airplane. 802.11B (also 
known as wireless Ethernet) and Bluetooth communication devices are 
examples of devices that provide wireless communication.
In environments where the risk of interference to other devices or 
services is harmful or perceived as harmful, the option to use a wireless 
device may be restricted or eliminated. Airports, Hospitals, and Oxygen 
or flammable gas laden atmospheres are limited examples where use of 
wireless devices may be restricted or eliminated. When in environments 
where you are uncertain of the sanction to use wireless devices, ask the 
applicable authority for authorization prior to use or turning on the 
wireless device.
Every country has different restrictions on the use of wireless devices. 
Since your system is equipped with a wireless device, when traveling 
between countries with your system, check with the local Radio Approval 
authorities prior to any move or trip for any restrictions on the use of a 
wireless device in the destination country.
If your system came equipped with an internal embedded wireless 
device, do not operate the wireless device unless all covers and shields 
are in place and the system is fully assembled.
Wireless devices are not user serviceable. Do not modify them in any 
way. Modification to a wireless device will void the authorization to use 
it. Please contact manufacturer for service.
Only use drivers approved for the country in which the device will be 
used. See the manufacturer System Restoration Kit, or contact 
manufacturer Technical Support for additional information.
