I know you will all be pleased to learn that the new photocopy machine has finally arrived. The new machine has more features and performs more functions than the old one. While this will make things more convenient for us in the long run, it can make it more complicated to learn how to operate the machine initially. In addition, we all want to avoid the problem of constant breakdowns that we had with the old machine. Therefore, if you have any problems with the machine, please ask my assistant, Ms. Ono, to help you. Similarly, please do not attempt to remove paper jams, add toner, or refill the paper bin until Ms. Ono has shown you how to do this. Ms. Ono has received training from the manufacturer of the machine and is fully knowledgeable about how to run it and how to troubleshoot it. Thank you for your cooperation and enjoy the new machine.

What is the purpose of the text?

• To inform the staff that the old machine is broken.

• To tell the staff about the new photocopy machine.

• To let the staff know that Ms Ono will receive training.

• To explain to the staff howto run a photocopy machine.
