GETTING STARTEDINSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
To ensure safety and proper machine perfor mance, please note the
following before initial installation and whenever the machine is to be
relocated.
1. The copier should be installed near an accessible power outlet
for easy connection.
2. Be sure to connect the power cord only to a power outlet that
meets the specified voltage and current requirements.
Also make certain the outlet is properly grounded.
3. Do not install the machine where it is:
ldamp or humid,
lexposed to direct sunlight,
lextremely dusty,
lpoorly ventilated,
lsubject to extreme temperature or humidity changes (e.g., near
an air conditioner or heater).
4. Ensure that the area chosen for the machine location is level.
5. Be sure to allow the required space around the machine for
servicing and proper ventilation.
A small amount of ozone is produced within the copier during operation.
The emission level is insufficient to cause any health hazard.
NOTE:
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.

ADDING TONER
The toner required () indicator will light up when toner
concentration level in the developer unit is low. If copying is
continued while the
indicator is lit, copies will gradually become
lighter until the copier stops and the indicator begins blinking.
The
indicator may also begin blinking during long copy runs of
multiple dark originals, even though toner is left. If the indicator
begins to blink, the copier will stop making copies. Open and close
the front cover. After a sufficient amount of toner has been fed,
the
indicator will go out and the START key indicator will light up.
Press the START key to resume copying.For best copying results, be sure to
use only Sharp Genuine Supplies
which are designed, engineered, and
tested to maximize the life and
performance of Sharp copiers.
