Choosing a fax connection

You can connect the printer with equipment such as a telephone, an answering machine, or a computer modem. If problems occur, see the topics listed under “Setup troubleshooting” in the “Troubleshooting” chapter.
Notes:
The printer is an analog device that works best when directly connected to the wall jack.
Other devices (such as a telephone or answering machine) can be successfully attached to pass through the
printer, as described in the setup steps.
If you want a digital connection such as ISDN, DSL, or ADSL, a third-party device (such as a DSL filter) is
required. For more information, see “Using a digital phone service” on page 17.
You do not need to attach the printer to a computer, but you do need to connect it to a telephone line to send and receive faxes.
You can connect the printer to other equipment. See the following table to determine the best way to set up the printer.

However, this method of dialing may not work if the PBX telephone system uses a dial tone that is not recognizable to most fax machines. The “Dialing while behind a PBX” feature enables the printer to dial the fax number without waiting to recognize the dial tone.

Getting started

Using the automatic paper type sensor

The printer is equipped with an automatic paper type sensing device. The Paper Type Sensor automatically detects the type of paper that has been loaded into the printer and adjusts the settings for you. For example, if you want to print a photo, load photo paper into the printer. The printer detects the type of paper and automatically adjusts the settings to give you optimum photo-printing results.

Loading paper

1 Make sure:
You use paper designed for inkjet printers.
If you are using photo, glossy, or heavyweight matte paper, you load it with the glossy or printable side facing
you. (If you are not sure which side is the printable side, see the instructions that came with the paper.)
The paper is not used or damaged.
If you are using specialty paper, you follow the instructions that came with it.
You do not force paper into the printer.
2 Before loading paper the first time, slide the paper guides out toward the edges of the paper support. You can
load up to:
100 sheets of plain paper
25 sheets of heavyweight matte paper
25 sheets of photo paper
25 sheets of glossy paper
Note: Photos require more drying time. Remove each photo as it exits, and allow it to dry to avoid ink smudging.
3 Load the paper vertically in the center of the paper support, and adjust the paper guides to rest against the edges
of the paper.
Note: To avoid paper jams, make sure the paper does not buckle when you adjust the paper guides.
Related topics:
“Using the automatic paper type sensor” on page 43

Choosing compatible specialty paper types

Heavyweight matte paper—A photo paper with a matte finish used for printing high-quality graphics.
Lexmark PerfectFinish Photo paper—A high-quality photo paper specifically designed for Lexmark inkjet
printers, but compatible with all inkjet printers. It is used specifically for printing professional quality photos with a glossy finish. It is best when used with genuine Lexmark evercolor 2 ink, providing photos that are fade- and water-resistant.

Page 80
Lexmark Photo Paper—An outstanding "everyday" heavyweight inkjet photo paper designed for use with
Lexmark printers, but compatible with all brands of inkjet printers. Although inexpensive, it offers excellent image quality and outstanding value.
Lexmark Premium Photo Paper—A heavier photo paper specifically designed to bond chemically with Lexmark
inks for eye-catching results. Fast drying, it prevents bleeding and feathering even when the image is saturated.
Transparency—A clear, plastic media primarily used for overhead projectors.
Card stock—A very thick paper used for printing sturdier items, such as greeting cards.
Iron-On transfer—A type of media that has a reverse image printed on it that can be ironed onto fabric.

Using a PictBridge-enabled digital camera to control printing photos

You can connect a PictBridge-enabled digital camera to the printer, and use the buttons on the camera to select and print photos.

Networking the printer

Networking overview

A network is a collection of devices such as computers, printers, Ethernet hubs, wireless access points, and routers connected together for communication through cables or through a wireless connection. A network can be either wired, wireless, or designed to have both wired and wireless devices.
Devices on a wired network use cables to communicate with each other. Devices on a wireless network use radio waves instead of cables to communicate with each other. For a device to
be able to communicate wirelessly, it must have a wireless print server attached or installed that enables it to receive and transmit radio waves.

Selecting a network printer

You can print or scan using a network printer connected to a local or remote subnet.
1 Open the application that you want to use. The Network Selection sheet can be accessed through two different
paths:
If you are using Do this
Lexmark Setup Assistant (during
setup)
a Install the printer software. For more information, see “Installing the
printer software” on page 104.
b Once the Printer Selection screen appears, choose Add Remote
from the drop-down menu.
All-in-One Center
a From the Finder desktop, double-click the Lexmark 5000 Series
folder.
b Double-click the Lexmark 5000 Series Center icon. c From the menu, choose Advanced Network Scan Access.
The Network Scan Access dialog appears.
d Click +.
The Network Selection sheet appears.
2 Select a printer from your local subnet or from a remote subnet.
The application searches for supported printers in the network or printers that are connected to your
computer.
If you want to select a particular printer on a remote subnet, type the IP address of the print server to which
the printer is connected in the Search by IP field, and then press return on your keyboard. If you do not know the IP address of the print server, consult the person who set up your network.
If you want to search a remote subnet for supported printers, type any IP address that belongs to the
particular subnet in the Search by IP field and the subnet mask in CIDR notation, and then press return on your keyboard. If you do not know the IP address of the print server, consult the person who set up your network.
3 From the list of printers, select the name of the printer that you want to use.
4 Click Select.
Networking the printer

Installing the printer on additional network computers

If you are installing your network printer for use with multiple computers on the network, insert the installation CD into each additional computer, and follow the instructions on the computer screen.
You do not need to repeat the connection steps for each computer you want to print to the printer.
The printer should appear as a highlighted printer in the installation. If multiple printers appear in the list, make
sure you select the printer with the correct IP address/MAC address.

Printer sharing

With Apple's printer sharing feature, you can:
Print to another Mac OS X user's shared printer.
Share your printer (installed in your Macintosh) with other Mac OS X users who also use Mac OS X version 10.2
and later.
Share your printer (installed in your Macintosh) with UNIX users.
Share your printer (installed in your Macintosh) with Windows users.
Any printer, as well as computers and other shared resources on your local network or subnet that use the Bonjour (formerly known as Rendezvous in Mac OS X version 10.3) technology, is accessible to your computer. Refer to Mac Help for details about its Bonjour technology.
Note: In printer sharing, printer maintenance functions are done on the host computer. The client can print only when the host computer is on.

Finding your MAC address

You may need the media access control (MAC) address of the print server to complete network printer configuration. The MAC address is a series of letters and numbers listed on the bottom of the external print server.
