In order to use this machine in a safe and trouble-free manner, install the machine in a place that fulfills the following conditions.
Also, read the remarks carefully.
Temperature and Humidity Conditions
Installation Requirements
• Temperature range: 50 to 86°F (10 to 30°C)
• A location with sufficient space
• Humidity range: 20 to 80 % RH (no condensation)
• A location with good ventilation
• A location with a flat, even surface
• A location able to fully support the weight of the machine
IMPORTANT
Protecting the machine from condensation
IMPORTANT
• To prevent condensation from forming inside the machine
in the following cases, let the machine adjust to the

Laser Safety
This machine complies with 21 CFR Chapter 1 Subchapter J as
a Class 1 laser product under the U.S. Department of Health
and Human Services (DHHS) Radiation Performance Standard
according to the Radiation Control for Health and Safety
Act of 1968. This means that the machine does not produce
hazardous radiation.
Since radiation emitted inside the machine is completely
confined within protective housings and external covers, the
laser beam cannot escape from the machine during any phase
of user operation.
CDRH Regulations
The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration implemented regulations
for laser products on August 2, 1976. These regulations
apply to laser products manufactured from August 1, 1976.
Compliance is mandatory for products marketed in the United
States.
CAUTION
Use of controls, adjustments, or performance of procedures
other than those specified in this manual may result in
hazardous radiation exposure.
The label is attached to the laser scanner machine inside the
machine and is not in a user access area.

Recycling Used Cartridges
Canon has instituted a worldwide recycling program for cartridges called “The Clean Earth Campaign”.
This program preserves precious natural resources by utilizing a variety of materials found in the used
cartridges
that are of no further use, to remanufacture new cartridges which, at the same time, keeps the
environment cleaner by reducing landfill waste.
Complete details concerning this program are enclosed in each Cartridge box.
The Clean Earth Campaign
● THE Canon CARTRIDGE RECYCLING PROGRAM
The Canon Cartridge Recycling Program fulfills the first initiative of Canon’s Clean Earth Campaign, which
supports four critical environmental areas:
• Recycling in the Workplace
• Conserving Environmental Resources
• Scientific Research and Education
• Encouraging Outdoors Appreciation
The remaining “Clean Earth”initiatives are supported in the U.S. through sponsorships of the National Park Foundation, the National
Wildlife Federation, and The Nature Conservancy and in Canada through donations to the World Wildlife Fund Canada and The
Nature Conservancy of Canada.
Since its inception, The Canon Cartridge Recycling Program has collected huge amount of cartridges that otherwise would have
been discarded into landfills or similar facilities.
Instead, this rapidly growing program returns used cartridges to the manufacturing process, thus conserving an array of resources.
Becoming a part of this worthwhile program is easy. When your cartridge is of no further use, simply follow the instructions
detailed for U.S. or Canadian residents.
We appreciate your support of The Canon Cartridge Recycling Program.
Working together we can make a significant contribution to a cleaner planet.
