For Installation & Relocation

Do not place the machine in a hot, humid, dusty, or poorly ventilated environment.
Prolonged exposure to these adverse conditions can cause fire or electric shocks.

Do not place the machine near heaters or volatile, flammable, or combustible

materials such as curtains that may catch fire.

Place the machine on a level and sturdy surface that can withstand the machine
weight. If tilted, the machine may fall over and cause injuries.

The machine weighs 35.3 kg when the consumables and paper tray are fully
assembled. When moving the equipment, make sure that there are two or more
persons carrying it.

xiv
When lifting the machine, face the front panel and firmly grip the recessed areas
provided on both sides of the machine. Never try to lift the machine by gripping any
other areas. Lifting the machine by gripping any other areas can cause the machine
to fall and result in injuries.

Recess

If you hold the printer by the front

door, left or right sides, there is a
danger of the printer falling.

When lifting the machine, get a firm footing and bend your knees to avoid possible
injuries to your back.

The machine has ventilation holes on the left, right, and rear sides. Ensure that the
machine is installed with a minimum clearance of 150 mm from the right side, 100
mm from the left side, and 200 mm from the rear side. A poorly ventilated machine
can cause excessive internal heat and fire. The accompanying diagram shows the
minimum clearances required for normal operation, consumables replacement, and
maintenance to ensure your machine operates at peak performance.

600mm* 100mm 200mm

150mm

When moving the machine, be sure to unplug the power cord from the outlet. If the
machine is moved with the power cord connected, it can cause damage to the cord
which could result in fire or electric shocks.

xv
 When moving the machine, do not tilt it more than an angle specified in the figure
below. If tilted excessively, the machine may fall over and cause injuries.

When the optional 2 tray module is installed, be sure to lock the caster stoppers. An
unlocked machine may fall over or slide and cause injuries.

● The machine is capable of operating normally within the following recommended

environmental limits.
Temperature range 10–32°C
Humidity range 15–85 % (no condensation)
Humidity should be 65 % or below at 32°C, and temperature should be 28°C or
below at 85 % humidity.

Sudden temperature fluctuations can affect copy quality. Rapid heating of a cold room can cause
condensation inside the machine, directly interfering with image transfer.

● Do not expose the machine to direct sunlight. Exposure to direct sunlight can
adversely affect the machine's performance.

● When moving the printer, remove the toner cartridges. Do not reuse toner
cartridges once you have removed them from the printer. Loose toner can spill
inside the printer and impair print quality.

● Do not place the printer immediately next to an air conditioner or heater. Doing so
will affect the printer's internal temperature, possibly resulting in damage.

xvi
For Power & Earth Connection

Three power specifications are listed below. The specifications that apply to your
machine depend on your machine configuration. Connect the power plug only to a
properly rated power outlet. Otherwise, it can cause fire or electric shocks. If in
doubt, contact your Fuji Xerox or dealers.
• Rated voltage 100 V
Rated frequency 50/60 Hz
• Rated voltage 110 V
Rated frequency 60 Hz
• Rated voltage 220-240 V
Rated frequency 50/60 Hz
Never use multi-plug adaptors to plug multiple power plugs in the same outlet. Be
sure to operate the machine on a sole-use receptacle. Multiple connectors can
cause the outlet to overheat and cause fire.

Ensure that the plug connection is free of dust. In a damp environment, a

contaminated connector can draw a non-negligible amount of current that can
generate heat and eventually cause fire over an extended period of time.

Always use the power cord provided with your machine. When an extension power
cord is required, always use a properly rated cord.
• In Japan: 125 V/15 A
• In other countries: Contact your Fuji Xerox or dealers.
If you use a cord with an unspecified current rating, the machine or plug may emit
smoke or become hot to the touch externally.

Do not attempt to rework, pull, bend, chafe, or otherwise damage the power cord.
Do not place a heavy object on the cord. A damaged cord can cause fire or electric
shocks.

Never touch a power cord with wet hands. Danger of electric shock exists.

Stop operation immediately if your machine produces smoke, excessive heat,

unusual noise, or smell, or if water is spilt onto the machine. These conditions can
cause fire. Immediately switch off and unplug the machine, and contact your Fuji
Xerox or dealers.

xvii
 To prevent fire or electric shocks, follow the instruction below based on your
machine configuration. If in doubt, contact your Fuji Xerox or dealers.
• If your machine is a 220–240 V model, there is no need to attach a separate earth
line since the earth connection is incorporated in the power line. Plug it into a
properly rated outlet.

If the power cord is broken or insulated wires are exposed, ask your Fuji Xerox or
dealers for a replacement. Using a damaged cord can cause fire or electric shocks.

Do not unplug or replug the machine while it is on. Unplugging a live connector can
deform the plug and cause fire.

When unplugging the machine, grasp the plug instead of the cord. Forcibly pulling on a
cord can damage it and cause fire or electric shocks.

Be sure to switch off and unplug the machine before accessing the interior of the
machine for cleaning, maintenance, or fault clearance. Access to a live machine's
interior can cause electric shocks.

Once a month, unplug the machine and check the power cord for the following:
• The power cord is plugged firmly into a receptacle.
• The plug is not excessively heated, rusted, or bent.
• The plug and receptacle are free of dust.
• The cord is not cracked or frayed.
If you notice any unusual conditions, contact your Fuji Xerox or dealers.

When the machine is not used over an extended period of time, switch it off and
unplug it. If an unused machine is left connected to a power source for a long
period, degraded insulation can cause electric shocks, current leakages, or fire.

Switch off the machine before connecting the interface cable or any optional
product. Connecting the cable or optional product with a live machine can cause
electric shocks.

xviii
 ● Reception interference
When installed at a certain location, the machine may cause interference with radio
and television reception. If you notice flickering or distorted images or noises on
your audio-visual units, your machine may be causing radio interference. Switch it
off, and if the interference disappears, the machine is the cause of radio
interference. Perform the following procedure until the interference is corrected.
• Move the machine and the TV and/or radio away from each other.
• Reposition or reorientate the machine and TV and/or radio.
• Unplug the machine, TV and/or radio, and replug them into outlets that operate
on different circuits.
• Reorientate the TV and/or radio antennas and cables until the interference stops.
For an outdoor antenna, ask your local electrician for support.
• Use coaxial cable antennas.

For Machine Operation

Do not place any liquid container such as a vase or coffee cup on the machine. Spilt
water can cause a fire or shock hazard.

Do not place any metal parts such as staples or clips on the machine. If metal and
flammable parts get into the machine, they can short-circuit internal components,
and cause fire or electric shocks.

If debris (metal or liquid) gets into the machine, switch off and unplug the machine.
Contact your Fuji Xerox or dealers. Operating a debris-contaminated machine can
cause fire or electric shocks.

Never open or remove machine covers that are secured with screws unless
specifically instructed in the Use Guide. A high voltage component can cause
electric shocks.

Do not try to alter the machine configuration, or modify any parts. An unauthorized
modification can cause smoke or fire.

xix
 This equipment is certified as a Class 1 laser product under IEC60825. This means
that the machine does not emit hazardous laser radiation. Since radiation emitted
inside the machine is completely confined within the protective housings and
external covers, the laser beam cannot escape from the machine during any phase
of user operation. Do not perform any operation apart from the instructions given in
the manual. There may be a danger of laser beam leakage.

Never touch a labelled area found on or near the heat roller. You can get burnt.If a
sheet of paper is wrapped around the heat roller, do not try to remove it by yourself
to avoid injuries or burns. Switch off the machine immediately, and contact your Fuji
Xerox or dealers.

Do not place any heavy object on the machine. An off-balance machine can fall
over or the heavy object can fall, causing injuries.

Do not use a highly flammable spray or solvent near the machine. It can cause fire.

When removing jammed paper, make sure that no pieces of torn paper are left in the
machine. A piece of paper remaining in the machine can cause fire.
If a sheet of paper is wrapped around the heat roller, or when clearing a jammed paper
that is difficult or impossible to see, do not try to remove it by yourself. Doing so can
cause injuries or burns. Switch off the machine immediately, and contact your Fuji
Xerox or dealers.

Do not place a magnet near the safety switch of the machine. A magnet can
activate the machine accidentally, resulting in injuries.

xx
 ● When clearing a paper jam or other fault, follow instructions in the User Guide.
● Do not use the machine if it is tilted more than 5 degrees in either the front-to-back
or left-to-right directions. Doing so could result in damage.

For Consumables

Never throw a toner cartridge into an open flame. It can cause an explosion and you
can get burnt.

Never throw a transfer roll cartridge into an open flame. It can cause an explosion
and you can get burnt.

xxi
 Never throw a drum cartridge into an open flame. It can cause an explosion and you
can get burnt.

● Do not unpack consumables before use. Store consumables in a cool, dry, and
clean environment, away from an open flame, and out of direct exposure to sunlight.

 The Objective of the International
Energy Star Program
To protect the global environment and conserve energy sources, the International Energy
Star Program encourages the following product features. Fuji Xerox confirms DocuPrint
C1618 satisfies the requirements for this program.

Low Power Mode Feature

This product has a power-saving feature, which switches the machine to the
lower mode ("Power Saver Mode 1") automatically if the machine is on and not
operated for a certain period of time. In this mode the machine lowers the fuser

4.2.3 Loading Paper in the Bypass Tray

Loading Paper and Usable Paper Types

Follow the procedure below to load paper into the bypass tray.

Set a different size of paper at the same time. Do not add new paper while paper remains in the bypass
tray. This can be the cause of paper jams.

Procedure

1 If retracted, open the tray.

To avoid damage to the tray, do not use excessive force

or place heavy objects on the tray.

4
2 Adjust the paper guide to the mark
corresponding to the size that you are
about to use.

When printing on long paper, pull out the tray

extension. Printing long paper with the tray extension
retracted can cause the paper to spill out of the tray or
make feeding impossible.

107
 4.2 Loading Paper

3 When using media such as

transparencies, labels, or envelopes,
Loading Paper and Usable Paper Types

fan the stack before loading so that

there is air between the sheets.

Fanning the stack helps prevent paper jams caused when

more than one sheet feeds at the same time.

●
Do not fan plain paper before loading.
●
When paper is poorly cut and the edges are not clean,
remove any unsuitable sheets before loading the
paper.

4 Align the four corners of the paper

stack and insert it (print side down)
until it lightly touches the feeding slot.

4 ●
Do not use paper that is folded, creased, or heavily
warped.
●
Do not overload the paper tray.
●
When printing on sheets longer than Legal paper
(355.6 mm), load the sheets one by one. Moisture can
cause the sheets to stick together, causing more than
one sheet go through at one time, which can result in
malfunction or damage. When feeding long paper,
support the sheet with your hands to ensure proper
feeding.

5 When loading paper, carefully align the

paper guides with the edges of the
paper so that there is a small gap
between the paper stack and the
guides.
Pushing the paper guides too hard
against the edge of the paper stack can
warp the paper and cause paper jams.
Load the paper so that it is straight in
the tray.

If the paper is not loaded correctly, the printing position

may shift and cause incorrect printing.

 List of Menu Items

The section describes the various modifiable items of each main menu.

It is possible to set some items of the menu screens from your computer when you print. If the computer settings
differ from those on the printer, the computer settings take precedence.

Default refers to the factory settings of the printer.

5.3.1 System
Used to configure the power saver modes, job log settings, and basic printer
operation.

Power Save Timer

The power saver mode is a function that reduces the electricity consumption of the

Control Panel
printer when it is idle. The power saver mode has two modes. Power saver mode 1
partially reduces the power consumption of certain parts of the printer. Power
saver mode 2 reduces consumption even more by turning off specific parts of the
printer completely.
When the printer is in power saver mode 1, "Ready/Standby" appears on the
display. When in this state, the printer takes slightly more time than usual to start
printing when it receives data.
When the printer is in power saver mode 2, the Power saver button is lit. When
5
the printer receives data while in this state, it takes more time than in power
saver mode 1 for the printer to begin printing.
The following offers an example of the possible delays before the printer goes
into each power saver mode.
Example: "Power Save Timer Mode 1" is set to 30 minutes. "Power Save Timer
Mode 2" is set to 60 minutes.
