Laser Components
WARNING: This printer generates a laser beam as part of the printing process.
The laser beam is a concentrated narrow beam of light that
produces extreme heat at its focal point. The laser beam in this
printer is invisible. Although you cannot see the beam, it can still
cause severe damage. Direct eye exposure to the laser beam may
cause eye injury or blindness.
To avoid permanent eye damage, follow these directions:
Before starting any service procedure, switch off the printer power and
unplug the power cord from the AC wall outlet.
Do not disassemble the Raster Output Scanner Assembly (laser
scanner) or any laser component that displays a Laser Warning Sticker.
Use caution when you are working around the Raster Output Scanner
Assembly or when you are performing laser related troubleshooting or
repair procedures.
Never place a mirror or a reflective tool or object in the laser beam path.
Do not disassemble the printer in such a way that the laser beam can
exit the print engine during a print cycle.
Fuser Components
WARNING: This printer uses heat to fuse the toner image to a sheet of paper.
The Fuser Assembly is very hot. Switch off printer power and wait at least 30
minutes for the Fuser to cool before you attempt to service the Fuser Assembly or
adjacent components.
Safety Components: Make sure covers and panel are in place and that all
interlock switches are all functioning correctly after you have completed a printer
service call. If you bypass, or cheat, an interlock switch during a service call, use
extreme caution when working on or around the printer.
WARNING: Turning the power off using the On/Off switch does not de-energize
the printer. You must remove the power cord to disconnect the
printer from the main power source. Keep the power cord accessible
for removal in case of an emergency.
Safety instructions: Read all installation instructions carefully before you plug
the product into a power source.
Care of product: Disconnect the power plug by pulling the plug, not the cord.
Disconnect the power plug if the power cord or plug is frayed or otherwise
damaged,
Or if any liquid or foreign material is spilled into the case,
Ground the product: Plug the three-wire power cord (with grounding prong)
into grounded AC outlets only. If necessary, contact a licensed electrician to
install a properly grounded outlet.
Service Safety Summary

other metallic objects could come into contact with dangerous voltages and
currents.
Power source: This product is intended to operate from a power source that will
not apply more then 250 volts rms between the supply conductors or between
wither supply conductor and ground. A protective ground connection by way of
the grounding conductor in the power cord is essential for safe operation.
The DocuPrint® N4525 Network Laser Printer is certified to comply with Laser
Product Performance Standards set by the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services as a Class 1 Laser Product. This means that this is a class of
laser product that does not emit hazardous laser radiation; this is possible only
because the laser beam is totally enclosed during all modes of customer
operation.
The laser and output of the laser scanner unit produces a beam that, if looked
into, could cause eye damage. Service procedures must be followed exactly as
written without change.
When servicing the machine or laser module, follow the procedures specified in
the manual and there will be no hazards from the laser.
Laser (FDA): Any laser label visible to service must be reproduced in the service
manual with location shown or indicated. Safe working procedures and clear
warnings concerning precautions to avoid possible exposure must also be
included.
The Laser contained in the DocuPrint® N4525 Network Laser Printer meets the
following standard: Laser class 3B, maximum 5mW, wavelength 780nm.
The following LASER symbol will be displayed at the start of any procedure where
possible exposure to the laser beam exists.

Service Flowchart
Note A Service Flowchart that outlines one possible approach to
troubleshooting and repair of the printer has been provided. The
Service Flowchart is an overview of the path a service technician
could take, using this technical manual, to service the printer
engine and options.
To use the Service Flowchart, start at Block 1 to identify the problem. After you have
identified the problem, return to the Service Flowchart and proceed to Block 2 where you
inspect and clean the printer (a through cleaning frequently solves many printer
problems). You continue down the Flowchart in this manner, always returning to the next
block in the Service Flowchart after you have completed the tasks outlined in the current
block.
If you choose not to use the Service Flowchart, it is recommended that you start at the
appropriate Repair Analysis Procedure (RAP) Table and proceed from there.
Final Checkout

On-Line Mode
On-Line is the printer’s normal operating mode. In this mode, the printer is On-Line,
under the control of the System Controller Board, and ready to generate output. The
On-Line Mode occurs automatically when the printer is powered ON.
If the printer goes out of the On-Line Mode during operation, it may be restored to
On-Line by pressing the On-Line button [0] on the Control Panel.
When the printer is On-Line, the “On Line” LED is illuminated steadily, indicating data
reception, transmission, analysis and printing are allowed. When the “On Line” LED is
blinking, the printer is receiving or processing data, or printing.
Power Saver
The printer employs a Power Saver Mode to reduce power consumption by lowering the
temperature of the fuser. If no data is received, or no Control Panel operation is
performed, within a period of time (either printer default or set by the user) the printer
enters the power saving state.
The Power Saver Mode interval can be set from the System Menu (in Menu Mode) and
can be preset to Off, 15, 30, 60, 90, 120 or 180 minutes.
When the printer is in the power saving state, it takes longer to start printing the first page
because it takes some time to raise the fuser temperature.
Menu Mode
Menu Mode utilizes the Control Panel to select various printer operations, print
configuration sheets and print test/demo prints. The Menu Mode also enables the operator
to set, change or adjust various features/options available int he DocuPrint N4525
Network laser Printer. If an option is not installed, the menu items for that option will not
be displayed.
The Maintenance Kit is a customer purchased / customer replaced unit (CRU). The
interval for replacement is 300K prints.
For Maintenance Kit part numbers, see Xerox Supplies and Accessories in the FRU Parts
Lists on page 1-338.
Configuration Sheet:
A printer configuration sheet can be used as an indicator of print quality, as well as
providing the user/technician with myriad of pertinent information regarding the printer’s
