1. Getting Started
Features of This Machine
This machine is designed especially for office workgroups, both for shared us-
age within a network environment, and for one-to-one usage connected directly
to a computer.
❖
❖❖
❖Standard compatibility with Windows 95/98/Me, Windows 2000, Windows XP and
Windows NT 4.0
As the printer drivers for the above operating systems are included, it is pos-
sible to print to maximum capacity by using the special features of this ma-
chine.
❖
❖❖
❖Network Connectivity
This machine can be used as a network printer.
It can print from any environment as it supports at the same time NetWare
(TCP/IP, IPX/SPX), Windows 95/98/Me (TCP/IP, NetBEUI), Windows 2000
(TCP/IP, NetBEUI), Windows XP (TCP/IP), Windows NT 4.0 (TCP/IP, Net-
BEUI), UNIX (TCP/IP), and Macintosh (AppleTalk).
If you register the user code by using the client, you can keep track of printing
jobs done under each code.
❖
❖❖
❖Use the Network Utilities included at your own convenience.
When you use “SmartNetMonitor for Client”and “SmartNetMonitor for Ad-
min”network utilities, you can parallel print, allowing you to scatter large
amounts of print sets across multiple printers; or alternative print, which al-
lows you to use another printer when you can not access the network printer
you are trying to use. Also, while at your workstation, the machine will notify
you when the print job is completed.
❖
❖❖
❖Complete Paper Handling Option
When the optional finisher is connected, you can collate and staple.
❖
❖❖
❖Using the Document Server
The document server stores files sent from the computer on the hard disk of
the machine. Later, the printer settings can be configured and the files print-
ed. Even when this machine is used as a network printer, passwords can be
assigned to each file, providing a high level of security. Also, you can com-
bine and print files scanned by this machine.

Connecting the Machine
This section gives instructions for connecting the machine and computer using
the parallel port.
Reference
For Ethernet and IEEE 1394 interface connections, see “Connecting to the Ma-
chine (Network Connections)”, General Settings Guide.
Requirements
Before using this machine, make sure that all the environmental and electrical
requirements have been met. Connect the machine to the host computer using
the parallel port, network interface unit, or both.
Make sure that all the cables, connectors, and electrical outlets necessary to at-
tach the machine to the host computer or network are present.
Parallel cable requirements
Connect the machine to the host computer using a parallel port. This machine
does not provide the parallel cable to connect the machine to the host computer.
The machine's parallel interface is a standard bidirectional interface. It requires
a standard IEEE 1284 compliant 36-pin parallel cable and a parallel port on the
host computer. Make sure to purchase the appropriate cable for the machine and
your computer.
Note
❒Do not use a parallel cable that is longer than 3 meters (10 feet).

Setting Paper on the Bypass Tray
This section gives instructions for setting paper on the optional bypass tray. Use
the bypass tray to print onto OHP transparencies, labels, and envelopes that can-
not be loaded in the paper tray.
Reference
For setting paper into the regular paper tray, see the General Settings Guide.
Note
❒The paper size that can be set in the bypass tray:
•Vertical: 90 - 297 mm (3.5 in. - 11.7 in.)
•Horizontal: 148 - 432 mm (5.8 in. - 17in.)
❒Make sure to set the paper in landscape orientation Lin the bypass tray.
Important
❒When printing using the printer function, original images are always rotated
by 180 degrees (the orientation of images to be printed is opposite to that of
the copier function). When printing onto paper with specific orientation re-
quirements, such as envelopes and letterheads, make sure to rotate the paper
feed direction to 180 degrees.
❒The following functions are disabled when printing from the bypass tray:
•Duplex Printing
•Auto Tray Select
•Auto Tray Switching
❒Make sure to set the paper size using the printer driver when printing data
from the computer. The paper size set using the printer driver has priority
over the one set using the display panel.
❒Make sure to set the paper to landscape orientation Lin the printer driver
when printing data from the computer.
