CHAPTER 1 ABOUT THIS PRINTER
❏ Front Operation
Basic operation of the printer can be done from the front panel.
❏ Versatile Paper Handling
This printer loads paper automatically from the paper cassette. The paper
cassette can hold A4, letter, B5, Executive, A5 and A6 sizes of paper. The
manual feed slot allows manual paper loading sheet by sheet so you can use a
variety of types and sizes of paper. For ad di tional information, see “What kind
of paper can I use” in Chapter 1.
❏ Enhanced Printing Performance and User-Friendly Operation
for Windows
The dedicated printer drivers for Microsoft® Windows® 95/98, Windows 3.1 and
Windows NT 4.0 are available on the CD-ROM supplied with your printer. You
can easily install them into your Windows system using our installer program.
The driver supports our uniq ue compression mode to enhance the printing speed
in Windows applications and allows you to cho ose vari ous printer settings
including toner save mode, custom paper size, sleep mode, gray scale
adjustment, resolution and many layout functions. You can easily set these print
options through the Printer Setup Menu.
®
1-3
❏ Quick Print Setup
You can easily make changes to settings which you need to change frequently in
a small selection window on your screen.
❏ Remote Printer Console Program for DOS
(For HL-1240/1250 Only)
The Remote Printer Console (RPC) utility program is avail able on the CD-ROM
supplied with your printer. When you operate your computer in a DOS (Disk
Operating System) environment, this program all ows you to easily change the
default settings of the printer such as fonts, page setup, and emulations.
This program also provides a status monitor program, which is a Terminate-andStay Resident (TSR) program. It can monitor the printer status while running in
the background and report the current status or errors on your computer screen.
❏ Popular Printer Emulation Support (For HL-1240/1250 Only)
These printers support the following popular printer emulation modes.
The HL-1240 supports HP LaserJet IIP (PCL4).
The HL-1250 supports HP LaserJet 6P (PCL6), Epson FX-850 and IBM
Proprinter XL. When you use DOS application software or Windows version
3.0 or earlier, you can use any of these emulations to opera te the printe r. The
printer also supports auto-emulation switching between HP and Epson or HP and
IBM. If you want to select the printer emulation, you can do it using the Remote
Printer Console Program.
❏ Printer Status Monitor with Bi-directional Parallel Interface
The printer driver can monitor the status of your printer using bi-directional
parallel communications. IEEE-1284 bi-directional parallel printer cable is
recommended.
The printer status monitor program can show the current status of your printer.
When printing, the animated dialog box appears on your computer screen to
show the current printing process. If an error occurs, a dialog box will appear to
let you know what to correct. For example: when your printer is out of paper,
the dialog box will display “No Paper” and instructions for the proper
corrective action.

CHAPTER 1 ABOUT THIS PRINTER
❏USB Interface (For Windows 98, iMac and Power Macintosh
G3 with USB users Only) (For HL-1240/1250 Only)
This printer can be connected using the USB (Universal Serial Bus) Interface to
a PC which has a USB interface. Drivers to allow you to use the USB port are
provided on the CD-ROM supplied with the printer.
❏High Resolution Control & Advanced Photoscale Technology
(For HL-1250 Only)
High resolution control (HRC) technology provide s clea r and crisp printouts.
Use this function to get smooth text print quality.
Advanced Photoscale Technology (APT) enables the printer to print graphics in
256 grayscales, producing nearly photog raphi c quality. Use this function when
you want to print photographic images.
❏Enhanced Memory Management
The printer provides its own data compression technology in the printer
hardware and the supplied printer driver software, wh ic h can automatically
compress graphic and font data efficiently into the printer’s memory. You can
avoid memory errors and print most full page 600 dpi g ra p hic and text data,
including larger fonts, with the printer’s standard memory.
1-5
❏Environment-Friendly
Economy Printing Mode
This feature will cut your printing cost by saving toner. It is useful to obtain
draft copies for proof-reading. You can select from two economy modes—25%
toner saving and 50% toner saving—through the Windows prin te r driver
supplied with your printer.
Sleep Mode (Power Save Mode)
When the printer is not used for a certain period of time, sleep mode
automatically reduces power consumption. The HL-1030/1240 consumes less
than 5 Watts, the HL-1250 consumes less than 6 Watts when in sleep mode.
Low Running Cost
Since the toner cartridge is separate from the drum unit, you need to replace only
the toner cartridge after approximately 3,000 pages, which is both cost effective
and ecologically friendly. (
up to 6,000 pages can also be used in this printer.
The actual number of pages printed with a toner cartri dge may vary depending
on your average type of print job, the figu res quoted are based on 5% coverage
per page.
You can print up to 20,000 pages with the drum unit, however there are many
factors that determine the actual drum life.

Remarks
It is recommended that you test paper, especially special sizes and types of paper
and heavy paper, on this printer before purchasing large quantities.
Avoid using coated paper, such as vinyl coated paper.
Avoid using preprinted or highly textured paper.
Use a recommended type of paper, especially pl ai n paper and transparencies, for
optimum printing. For more information on paper specifications, consult your
nearest authorized sales representative or the place you purchased your printer.
If the paper has problems feeding from t h e paper cassette, use the manual feed slot
and try again.
Use neutral paper. Do not use acid paper to avoid any damage to the printer drum
unit.
Make sure that you have selected the appropriate media type in the printer driver for
optimum printing.
The print quality might be degraded or th e li fe of the drum unit might be shortened
with the following usage. Using the printer for speci a l pri nt jo bs for lon g periods of
time (i.e. printing name cards, etc.)
Cut Sheet
We recommend you use long-grained p aper for the best print quality.
If you are using short-grained paper, it may be the cause of paper jams.
Labels / Transparencies
Avoid feeding labels with the carrier shee t exposed, or your printer will be
damaged.
We recommend you use labels or transparencies which are designed for use in laser
printers.

Special Paper
Before using paper with holes, such as organizer shee ts, you must fan the stack well
to avoid paper jams and misfeeds.
Do not use organizer sheets that are stuck together. The glue that is used might
cause damage to the printer.
Before using any paper, make sure that it is not curled. If it is, you should straighten
the paper as much as possible. Feeding curled paper ca n cause paper jams and
misfeeds.
