What are two safety hazards when dealing with laser printers? (Choose two.)
- high voltage
- hot components
- heavy metals
- proprietary power bricks
- unwieldy card cages
| Answers Explanation & Hints:
Laser printers require high voltage when initially powered on and to charge the drum in preparation for writing data to the drum. This high voltage requirement is why most laser printers are not normally connected to a UPS. A laser printer also has a fuser assembly used to apply heat and pressure to the toner to permanently attach it to the paper. The laser printer must be unplugged and the fuser assembly must be allowed to cool before working inside the printer. |
