1. 7. 2 Keeping the paper in the custody
Keep the paper in the custody taking care of the following matters.
1. Do not expose the paper to the direct sunlight.
2. Keep the paper away from high humidity. (It must be less than 70%)
3. Put the paper on a flat place
4. If you will keep the paper in the custody, which you have already unpacked, put it into the
polyethylene bag to avoid the humidity.
CAUTION
Do not use the paper with staple, or do not use such conductive paper as aluminium foil and
carbon paper.
The above may result in a danger of fire
NOTE
(1) Print image may become light if printed on a rough surface of the paper.
(2) Print image may become defective if the print paper has an excess curl.
(3) It will become a cause for paper mis-feed, defective print image or paper creasing if you
use a paper that does not satisfy the specification.
(4) Do not use a paper of which surface is very special, such as thermal paper, art paper,
aluminium foil, carbon paper and conductive paper.
(5) Do not use papers with unpacked (exposed in high / low temperature & humidity) in a
long period. Such papers may result in mis-feed, defective image or paper creasing.
(6) Tracing paper exposed to air over a long period tends to cause a defective printing.
Removing one round on the surface of the tracing roll paper from the beginning is
recommended.
Refer to [2.3 Replacing Roll Media].

2. 5 Cut Sheet Media
1. Open the Bypass Feeder (1).
2. There are several size markings on the table of Bypass Feeder which indicate possible feed
positions. Place the cut sheet paper on the table between its concerning size markings then
insert it into the Bypass Feeder.
When the leading edge touches the feeding roller, the machine automatically carries and sets
the paper at the proper position.
NOTE
(1) As a curly cut sheet will cause a mis-feed, straighten the sheet as far as possible before
printing. And set the sheet in “curl down” direction as a mis-feed can be avoided. “Curl
up” sheets tend to result in a mis-feed.
Correct (curl down) Incorrect (curl up)
(2) Setting a cut sheet to the Bypass Feeder while the printer is processing a print job cause
a paper jam.

2. 8 Canceling Sleep Mode
The KIP 7170 has two Sleep Modes to reduce the power consumption.
The KIP 7170 will enter Sleep Mode after a certain period of inactivity.
In the default setting;
• Warm Sleep Mode will start after a 15 minute of inactivity in order to reduce the power supply
for Fuser Unit.
• Cold Sleep Mode will start after a 60 minute of inactivity to stop the power supply for Fuser
Unit and some other components.
Sleep Mode is canceled and the machine gets ready when;
• the machine receives a print job through the network.
• you tap on the UI screen then an original is inserted the scanner unit.
NOTE
(1) It may take time for the machine to get ready.
(2) Tapping on the UI screen can cancel the screensaver but the KIP 7170 needs to recover
temperature on Fuser Unit.
It may need another waiting time to start warming up for printing.
(3) Recommended Default Delay Times: 60min
Chapter 2 Basic Operation 2-22
2. 9 Dehumidifying Roll Media
If the roll paper is extremely humidified, it may cause several kinds of defective print.
Defective prints you will experience most will be “crease of paper” and “loss of image”.
If the KIP 7170 is installed in such a condition, it is recommended to use the optional embedded
“Dehumidify Heater”.
Turn on the Dehumidify Heater if the room air has too much humidity (75% or higher) to prevent
the above kinds of print defect.
Such problems above may be resolved.
To turn on the Dehumidify Heater, press the H side of the Dehumidify Heater Switch on the rear.
(Press its L side to turn off.)
