Preface

About your printer Three printer models are available:

• The base model, delivering 600

dots per inch (dpi) resolution at up to 45 pages per minute (ppm), ships with two 500-sheet trays. This model comes with 32MB of standard memory.

• The network model comes with an

Ethernet 10BaseT/100BaseTx print server installed. This model comes with 64MB of standard memory.

• The duplex network model, which

ships with a duplex unit attached.

Preface

Select a location for your printer

Step 1: Select a location

for your printer

CAUTION! The printer weighs 46.8 kg

(103 lbs) and requires at least two people to lift it safely.

Choosing the correct location for your laser printer is vital to ensuring that the printer provides you with the quality of service you expect.

Some factors to consider when selecting a place to set up your printer include:

• The amount of space your printer

and any options will require

• The type of environment

necessary for optimum printer performance

Allowing enough space When choosing a place to set up your

printer, be sure to allow enough space for the printer and any options you may have purchased.

You will also need to leave enough room to open the printer paper trays and side doors, and to access any optional output bins. It’s also important to allow space for proper ventilation around the printer.

Argecy Computer Corporation 248-324-1800

Select a location for your printer

For a base printer When selecting a location for your

printer, make sure you have at least the amount of space indicated in the figure.

With a duplex unit and

a high capacity feeder or

base cabinet

When selecting a location for a printer with a high capacity feeder and duplex unit, make sure you have at least the amount of space indicated in the figure.

If you install a base cabinet rather than a high capacity feeder, your printer will require the same amount of space as shown in the figure.

Select a location for your printer

Considering

environmental issues

When choosing a place to set up the printer, make sure the location you select is:

• A firm, level surface where the

printer won’t be subjected to strong vibration

• Well ventilated

• Away from the direct airflow of air

conditioners, heaters, or ventilators

• Free of temperature or humidity

extremes or fluctuations

• Clean, dry, and free of dust

• Away from direct sunlight

Moving the printer At some point in the future you may

decide to move the printer to a new location. The publications CD provides details about removing options before moving the printer.

If you’re going to move the printer, keep the following in mind:

• Because the printer is heavy

(approximately 46.8 kg [103 lbs]), two people are required to lift it safely.

• Remove the print cartridge before

you move the printer. If the printer is moved with the cartridge installed, toner may spill out and damage the printer.

• Be sure to plug the printer into a

properly grounded outlet in the new location.

Argecy Computer Corporation 248-324-1800

Unpack the printer

Step 2: Unpack the printer

Now that you have chosen a location for your printer, you are ready to unpack it and prepare to set it up.

Make sure you have the following items:

• Printer with two 500-sheet

drawers

• Multipurpose feeder

• Power cord

• Print cartridge

• Setup Guide with a publications

The publications CD is located in the back of this book.

• Quick Reference card, Clearing

Jams card, and printer pocket

• Drivers CD

• Operator panel overlay

(non-English only)

If any items are missing or damaged, contact your point of purchase.

Save the carton and packing material in case you need to repack the printer.

Step 3: Install the

multipurpose feeder

Note: If you will be attaching the

optional envelope feeder during setup, skip this step and continue with either Step 4: “Set up the optional high capacity feeder” on page 9 or Step 5: “Set up printer supplies” on page 17.

Your printer comes with a multipurpose feeder that can be used to load paper, transparencies, labels, or card stock. The multipurpose feeder holds approximately 35 sheets of paper.

CAUTION! If you are installing the

multipurpose feeder sometime after setting up the printer, turn the printer off and unplug the power cord before continuing.

Note: You can install the multipurpose

feeder with or without the duplex unit already attached to the printer.

To install the multipurpose feeder:

1 Hold the multipurpose feeder by

both sides.

Argecy Computer Corporation 248-324-1800

Install the multipurpose feeder

2 Tilt the feeder end going into the

printer first down slightly, as you align the posts on the feeder with the holes above the opening in the printer.

Make sure the top of the feeder fits over the top of the edge coming out of the printer. (See the illustration on page 8.)

Argecy Computer Corporation 248-324-1800

Install the multipurpose feeder

3 Gently insert the feeder at this

angle into the opening and then drop it down into place. The feeder should be firmly in place.

Step 4: Set up the optional

high capacity feeder

CAUTION! If you are installing a high

capacity feeder sometime after setting up the printer, turn the printer off and unplug the power cord and any other cables before continuing.

Your printer supports either an optional high capacity feeder or an optional base cabinet.

The high capacity feeder contains one 500-sheet tray and two 1000-sheet trays for a total capacity of 2500 sheets of print media. The base cabinet is optional furniture that is the same size and shape as the high capacity feeder. It provides storage space while aligning an optional mailbox or finisher with the printer.

Argecy Computer Corporation 248-324-1800

Set up the optional high capacity feeder

To set up the high capacity feeder or base cabinet:

Warning! Lift the high capacity feeder

from the bottom.

1 Remove the high capacity feeder

or cabinet from its packing materials.

Warning! Be sure you remove the

sheets of foam packing from the bottom of both trays before you print from the high capacity feeder.

Be sure to remove the foam packing and tape from the trays. Save the carton and packing materials in case you need to repack the option.

2 Make sure you have the following

items:

— 2500-sheet high capacity

feeder or base cabinet

— 2 locking clips

— 2 thumbscrews

— tray labels

Attaching a high

capacity feeder or

base cabinet

The steps in this section explain how to connect your printer to a high capacity feeder. When the steps for a base cabinet are different, a note to the left of the step provides the necessary information.

CAUTION! The printer weighs 46.8 kg

(103 lbs) and requires at least two people to lift it safely.

1 Make sure the high capacity

feeder cable is situated in the notch on the back of the feeder.

2 Have someone help you lift the

printer.

— Person 1: Grasp the printer on

the right side by the handholds.

— Person 2: Grasp under the

printer where the multipurpose feeder attaches.

Argecy Computer Corporation 248-324-1800

Set up the optional high capacity feeder

Warning! Do not slide the printer

across the high capacity feeder to position it.

3 Carefully place the printer on top

of the high capacity feeder. Make sure the trays on the printer are lined up on the same side as the trays on the high capacity feeder.

Be sure to align all four corners on the bottom of the printer with the corners on the top of the high capacity feeder. Small metal pins on the top of the high capacity feeder fit into grooves on the bottom of the printer.
