When the rear paper stacker is folded down, paper exits through
the rear of the printer and is stacked here face up. This is mainly
used for heavy print media. When used in conjunction with the
multi purpose feed tray, the paper path through the printer is
essentially straight. This avoids bending the paper around curves

G ETTING S TARTED
I NSTALLING MFP DRIVERS AND U TILITIES
T WAIN AND P RINTER D RIVERS
The TWAIN driver is used for "Pull Scanning", i.e. initiating a scan
from your PC via software. Compare this to "Push Scanning"
where you start the scan by pressing a button on the MFP's front
panel. The TWAIN driver only works via USB connections. This
means it's not possible to control the scanner over the network
from your PC.
There are two different ways of installing the TWAIN and printer
drivers:
1. Plugging the printer in first and performing a “plug and
play" type of installation. In this case you must install the
TWAIN driver first.
2. Not plugging the printer in yet, but running the Oki driver
installer program from the CD-ROM. This installs the
TWAIN (scanner printer driver) and printer drivers. Once
the printer is switched on and plugged in, the installation
is complete.
Plug and play installation
The MFP is a "dual device" - Windows sees it as a scanner and a
printer. This means when the MFP is plugged into a PC using a
USB cable, you'll be prompted to install 2 different drivers; the
TWAIN (scanner printer) driver first and then the printer driver.
1. Attach the printer to a USB port of your computer.
2. Switch on the printer.
3. Insert the Drivers & Utilities CD.
NOTE:
You must be logged on as an administrator or a member of
the Administrators group in order to complete this procedure.
If your computer is connected to a network, network policy
settings may also prevent you from completing this
procedure.

If CD autoboots, cancel the dialogue.
The ‘New Hardware Found' dialogue will appear on the screen

If you do not see the ‘New Hardware Found' dialogue,
please check that power and USB cables are connected
properly, and the printer is switched on.
4. Install Twain driver first

5. Next install the printer driver
FNHW Wizard 3.jpg
F AX P RINTER DRIVER
The fax printer driver allows you to send faxes directly from your
computer without printing the document first.
Windows XP has built-in fax support - you can use your
computer's modem to send faxes directly from your computer.
With Oki's fax driver you are sending the fax data from your
computer to the MFP, and then the MFP automatically sends the
document.
Installing the fax printer driver
This is installed as part of the Oki driver installer wizard.
H OTKEY U TILITY
The Hotkey utility enables the MFP to receive one key touch
commands from a locally connected computer (“Pull Scan”).
Installation of the Hotkey utility is optional and can be found on
the Driver/Utilities CD under the Utilities folder.
Information on using the Hotkey utility can be found in “Scan to
PC option.” on page 69.

MFP S ETUP TOOL
Installation of the MFP setup utility is optional and can be found
on the Driver/Utilities CD under the Utilities folder.
The setup program does not automatically place an icon on your
desktop. If you wish, you can drag and drop this icon on to your
desktop for ease of future use
The MFP setup tool can discover device over USB or network
connections. This only detects Oki C3530MFP devices.

>MFP Settings
>Color Adjustment
>Address Book Manager
>Phone Book Manager
>Profile Manager
