Laser safety

!Warning: Adjustments, use of controls, or performance of

procedures other than those specified herein may result in

hazardous light exposure.

The Xerox DocuPrint printers are certified to comply with the

performance standards of the U.S. Department of Health, Education,

and Welfare for Class 1 laser products. Class 1 laser products do not

emit hazardous radiation. The DocuPrint printers do not emit

hazardous radiation because the laser beam is completely enclosed

removed with a tool. DO NOT REMOVE LABELED PANELS OR

PANELS NEAR LABELS. ONLY XEROX SERVICE

REPRESENTATIVES HAVE ACCESS TO THESE PANELS.
