Printer Requirements
Requirements
Before using the printer, confirm that all the environmental and electrical requirements have been
met. Connect the unit to your host computer using the para llel port, optional Network Interface
Board 185, or both.
Confirm that all the cable s, conn ectors, and electr ical outle ts necess ary to att ach the pr inter to your
host computer or network are present.
The interface cable is not supplied in the box. It is your responsibility to provide the
•
interface cable appropriate for the computer that you are using.
Parallel Cable Requirements
Connect the printer to your host computer using a parallel port. The parallel cable to connect the
printer to the host computer is not include d with the printer.
The printer’s parallel interface is a standard bidirectional interface. It requires a standard 36-pin
parallel cable complian t with IEEE 1284 and a paralle l port available on the host computer.
Do not use a parallel cable that is longer than 3 meters (10 feet).

Network Cable Requirements
The optional Network Interfac e Board 185 can be inst alled to allow direct connection to an
Ethernet network.
The Network Interface Board supports 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX connections.
You can use the machine in the following network environments:
•

Using the appropriate networ k management sof t wa re and printer driver .
Attaching the machine to a networks computer set up as a server.
PostScript 3 Kit Type 185 is required)
In a mixed network environment, the protocol switches automatically.
Consult your network administra tor before connecting your machine to a network.
•
In a 100BASE-TX environment, be sure to use properly shielded and grounded cable
•
(STP, Category/Type5) for the connection to your host computer (and/or HUB) in order
to meet FCC and EMC Directive 89/336/EEC emission guidelines.
Connecting the Printer to the Host Using Parallel Interface Cable
Use a parallel int erface cable compliant with I EEE 1284 (supplied by you) to conne ct your printer
to the host computer.
Follow these steps to connect the printe r to your host computer.
Confirm that you have the correct c able.
1
Confirm that both the machine and the host compute r are turned off.
2
Plug the 36-pin end of the paralle l cable into the parallel port at the right side of the back

cover of the machine.
Squeeze the wire clips on each side of the connector together until they snap into place. The
4
clips hold the cabl e secu rel y in place.
Plug the other end of the parallel cable into the computer's parallel port.

Features of the Printer
This printer is designed especially for office workgroups, both for shared usage within network
environment, and for one-to-one usage by being connected directly to your computer.
High Productivity
As this printer comes with a 27 pages per minute (ppm) engine and offers a variety of paper
handling options, handling documents will be more efficient. Proof print function is one of the
supporting feature for making multiple original printing which allows you to confirm that the
document prints as expected before printing many.
Optional Printer Hard Disk Type 185 is required.
Versatile Paper Handling Options
This printer offe rs both versatile input and output paper handling options. Input capacity can be
raised to 3,100 with the optional paper bank (PS420) and the bypass tray (Bypass Tray Type 270)
to reduce the inconvenience of reloading paper. For an output device, collating and stapling
capability is availab le with the optional finisher (SR720).
Optional Printer Feature Expander Type 185 (32MB or 64MB) or Printer Hard Disk Type 185 is
required.

Variety of Paper Media Support
Standard Tra y 2 and optional Bypass Tray Type 270 support variety of paper media such as thick
paper, transparency and some envelops.
For more information on supported paper and other media, see “Copy Reference”.
Network Connectivity
Your printer is network ready with the optional network interface board.
Network Utility
PRINTER MANAGER, software consisting of Administration and Client versions, is provided.
With this software, multiple print devices can be utilized effectively together on a network. This
software offer s several convenient functions such as parallel pri nting and recovery printing.

Printer Drivers for this Printer
Printing requires inst allation of a printer driver for your operating system. The following drivers
are included in the CD-ROM that comes with this machine.
Printer drivers allow the compute r to communicate with the printer via a printer language. Two
kinds of PCL printer drivers, PCL 6 and PCL 5e, are included in the CD-ROM that comes with
this machine. We recommend the PCL 6 as your first choice. However, some of your applications
might require the installa tion of the PCL 5e printer driver . In this case, you might configure to
install and print by using PCL 5e in addition to the PCL 6.
Adobe PostScript Printer Drivers and PPD Files
The Adobe PostScript printer dri vers and the PPD files are included in the CD-ROM that comes
with this unit. Adobe PostScript printer driver allows the computer to communicate with the
printer by means of a printe r langua ge. The PPD files allow the printer driver to enable the printer
specific functions .

Auto Run
You can install the printer driver by using Auto Run.
Auto Run is available for the following operating systems:
Windows 95/98
•
Windows NT 4.0
•
If your system is Windows 3.1x or Macintosh, see information on inst alli ng t he pri nter dri ver.
See “Windows 95/98 - Installing the PCL 6/5e Printer Driver” on page 3-4.
See “Windows 3.1x - Installing the PCL 6/5e Printer Driver” on page 3-6.
See “Macintosh - I nstalling the PostScript Prin ter Driver” on page 3-12.
Before starting this installation, close all documents and appl ications. In a network
•
environment, confirm that users who are logged on are disconnected. Be sure to do
this when it will create the least interference with other users.
After installing a printer driver, you must restart the computer.
•
If your system is Windows NT 4.0, installing a printer driver requir es Full Control
•
access permission. Members of the Administrators, Server Operators, Print
Operators, and Power Users groups have Full Control permission by default. When
you install a printer driv er, log on under Full Control permission.
If your system uses W indows NT 4.0 and Service Pack 4 is installed, you might not
•
install the PCL 6/5e printer driver using Auto Run. In this case, use [Add Printer
Wizard] in the [Printers] window to install the printer driv er or insta ll Service Pack 5
in the computer before instal ling the printer driver.
Auto Run might not automatically work with certain OS settings. In this case, start
•
"SETUP.EXE" to install printer driver on the root.
If you want to cancel Auto Run, insert the CD-ROM while pressing the {SHIFT} key
•
until your computer finis hes acce ssing the CD-ROM.
Using the Shared Printer on Windows NT 4.0 for Windows 95/98 Client
If you want to sha re the printe r on Windows NT 4.0, you must n ot insta ll t he printe r dri ver using
Auto Run. Install the printer driver of the Windows 95/98 for alternate driver.
For more information on installing the printer driver as an alternate driver: See “Uninstalling
the PCL 6/5e Printer Driver” on page 4-1.
Installing by Auto Run
Follow these steps to install the printer driver on Windows 95/98/NT 4.0.
Never have two versions of the same printer driver installed on your system at the same
•
time. When upgrading to a new version of the printer dr iver, uninstall the old version,
and then install the new one. For more informati on on uninstalli ng the print er driver and
