Facts about the Safety of Xerox Products 6

Products
Electromagnetic Compatibility
Xerox
®
products are designed to function properly in the intended electromagnetic environment without
causing harmful interference to nearby equipment or radio communication services. In this regard, Xerox
®
products comply with all governmental regulations covering Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC).
Compliance is verified by appropriate product testing.
Ergonomics/Human Factors
Human factors are an integral part of our design process. Our multidisciplinary team of professionals
evaluates Xerox
®
products to ensure usability by our customers, serviceability by our technicians and
ease of assembly by our manufacturing personnel.
Document Illumination
Staring at lamps can sometimes produce an afterimage, but this is of short duration and has no
permanent effects. Due to the intensity of some light sources, some lamp systems are interlocked with the
platen cover to prevent this. We recommend that all platens be covered while making copies to minimize
exposure and facilitate good copy quality.
Lasers
Xerox
®
products containing lasers do not represent a hazard to equipment operators or bystanders and
are designed and built to comply with the strict safety requirements of governmental and international
standards. Product designs ensure that potentially harmful laser beams are contained within the
equipment. Covers and shields need not, and should not, be removed for customer maintenance. Covers
that may be removed by Xerox service personnel are labeled to indicate potential laser hazards. No
service mode requires direct viewing of the laser beam or permits the beam to exit the confines of the
equipment. Service personnel following established adjustment procedures are not exposed to potentially
harmful laser beams.
