Transparencies

" Do not fan transparencies before loading them. Resulting static elec-

quality may be affected.

" Remove transparencies as soon as possible from the output tray to

avoid static buildup.

You can print continuously with transparencies. However, this could affect the
media feed, depending on the media quality, static buildup, and printing envi­ronment.

What is the guaranteed imageable (printable) area?

The printable area on all media sizes is
up to 4 mm (0.157") from the edges of
the media.

Each media size has a specific image­able area, the maximum area on which
the machine can print clearly and with­out distortion.

This area is subject to both hardware
limits (the physical media size and the
margins required by the machine) and
software constraints (the amount of
memory available for the full-page frame buffer). The guaranteed imageable
(printable) area for all media sizes is the page size minus 4 mm (0.157") from
all edges of the media.

Page margins

Margins are set through your application. Some applications allow you to set
custom page sizes and margins while others have only standard page sizes
and margins from which to choose. If you choose a standard format, you may
lose part of your image (due to imageable area constraints). If you can cus­tom-size your page in your application, use those sizes given for the imagea­ble area for optimum results.

Media storage

How do I store media?

 Keep media on a flat, level surface in its original wrapper until it is time to

load it.

Media that has been stored for a long time out of its packaging may dry up
too much and cause misfeeding.

 If media has been removed from its wrapper, place it in its original pack-

aging and store in a cool, dark place on a level surface.

 Avoid moisture, excessive humidity, direct sunlight, excessive heat (above

35°C [95°F]), and dust

 Avoid leaning against other objects or placing it in an upright position.

Before using stored media, do a trial print and check print quality.

Loading media

How do I load media?

Take off the top and bottom sheets of a
ream of paper. Holding a stack of approx­imately 200 sheets at a time, fan the
stack to prevent static buildup before
inserting it in a tray.

" Do not fan transparencies.

Note

Although this machine was designed for printing on a wide range of
media types, it is not intended to print exclusively on a single media
type except plain paper. Continuous printing on media other than plain
paper (such as envelopes, thick stock, or transparencies) may
adversely affect print quality or reduce engine life.

When refilling media, first remove any media remaining in the tray. Stack it
with the new media, even the edges, then reload it.

Do not mix media of different types and sizes, as this will cause media mis­feeds.

Media storage32

Media tray

1 Remove the tray cover from the

media tray.

2 Squeeze the right media guide

and open the media guides.

3 Load the media lengthwise in

the tray with the printing side up.

" If media is loaded past

the media limit mark, it
may not be fed correctly.

For details on how many
sheets of each type of
media can be loaded in
the tray, refer to “Media
Types” on page 26.

Loading media

33

" Before loading envelopes, press them down to make sure that all

air is removed, and make sure that the folds of the flaps are firmly
pressed; otherwise, the envelopes may become wrinkled or a
media misfeed may occur.

" Load envelopes lengthwise with the side to be printed facing up as

shown in the illustration.

4 Squeeze the right media guide

and adjust the media guides so
that both the left and right sides
of the media are secure. Then,
replace the tray cover on the
media tray.

" After the envelope is fed into the output tray, immediately open its

flap (before it has cooled). Because the envelopes pass through
heated rollers, the gummed flaps may seal. Using envelopes with
emulsion-based glue avoids this problem.

Loading media34

Manual feed tray

" When using the manual feed tray, the media must be fed in one sheet

at a time. If the manual feed tray runs out of media during printing,
media is automatically supplied by the media tray.

1 Make sure that the tray cover is properly attached to media tray.
2 Open the media guides.

3 Insert the sheet of media as far

as possible into the manual feed
tray with the side to be printed
on facing up, and then adjust the
media guides so that both sides
of media are secure.

" Before loading envelopes, press them down to make sure that all

air is removed, and make sure that the folds of the flaps are firmly
pressed; otherwise, the envelopes may become wrinkled or a
media misfeed may occur.

Scanner

Operation

Introduction

This machine allows you to scan from a TWAIN-compliant or plug-in applica­tion. Since the scanner driver is not stand-alone software, it has to be started
from a TWAIN-compliant application to be able to scan and load an image to
your computer. The command to start the scanner driver may vary depending
on the application. To determine the correct command, refer to the user man­ual for the application.

User interface operation

" Do not open the ADF lid while documents loaded into the ADF are

being scanned.

1 Place the original document face down on the flatbed glass and align its

center with the arrow mark on the glass. If the optional ADF is installed,
put the top end of the document stack into the ADF input tray face up and
with the first page to be copied on top of the stack.

" Before loading the document in the ADF, check that no document

pages remain on the flatbed glass.

2 Start the TWAIN scanning application.
3 From the File menu, click Select Source. If Select Source is not avail-

able in the File menu, refer to the application’s user manual to determine
how the TWAIN link is used. A dialog box with a list of scanning sources
appears.

4 Select or import PagePro 1380 MF. You need to select the source only

once, unless you want to choose a different scanner.

8 From the Resolution drop-down list, select a scanning resolution.
9 Select desired scanning settings such as Sharpen or Descreen.

10 Click Preview or Scan to preview or scan your document(s).

Scan method

You can select how to scan from the Scan Method drop-down list.

z Flatbed: Use this setting if you are scanning one page at a time using

the flatbed.

z Simplex/Multi-page: Use this setting if you are scanning a multi-page

document using the optional auto document feeder (ADF).

Selecting the proper image type

Select the appropriate image type for your purpose through the scanner user
interface.

The different image types are described below.

User interface operation

45

Black and White

Black and White represents the image in black and white only, without inter­mediate shades of gray in-between. That means each pixel of the image is
either 100% black or 100% white. Black and White is the best choice of
image type for scanning text or a pen or ink drawing. Since only 1 bit of black
or white information is required for each pixel , the disk space required for
saving a line art image is only about 1/24 of that required to save a 24-bit
True Color image.

Black and White Image

A combination of the words “picture” and “element,” a pixel is a single dot

*

on a computer display or in a digital image.

*

8-Bit Gray

A single-channel image consists of at least 256 shades of gray. An 8-bit scan­ner produces a grayscale image with 1,024 shades of gray between pure
black and pure white. Choose this option for scanning black-and-white photo­graphs.

With 8 bits of color information per pixel, the file size of an image is eight
times larger than that of a black-and-white image and 1/3 the size of a 24-bit
color image.

8-Bit Gray Image

User interface operation46

24-Bit Color

A 24-bit color image consists of three 8-bit color channels. The red, green,
and blue channels are mixed together to create a combination of one billion
colors, which give a more true-to-life quality to the image. Choose “24-Bit
Color” for scanning color photos.

24-Bit Color Image

Selecting the proper resolution

Good control of the resolution results in satisfactory details in the scanned
image. The resolution is measured in dots per inch (dpi). Typically, the greater
the dpi, the higher the resolution and image file size.

Be aware that a greater resolution requires more time, memory, and disk
space. Note that above a certain dpi, the resolution does not visually improve
the image, but only makes your file larger.

Resolution: 50 dpi Resolution: 100 dpi

" For your information, an A4-sized color image scanned at 300 dpi in

True Color mode consumes approximately 25 MB of disk space. A
higher resolution (over 600 dpi) is recommended only when you need
to scan a small area in True Color mode.
