Installing Drivers
Your machine is supplied with the following drivers:
• TWAIN (scanner) driver: Windows/MAC, USB only
• Printer driver: PCL5e (all models), PostScript3 (MFX-3090
• Fax driver: Windows only; MFX-3090 only
and Utilities
only)
Note
You must be logged on as an administrator or a member of the
Administrators group in order to complete this procedure. If your
computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may also
prevent you from completing this procedure.
The MFP is a “dual device” - Windows sees it as a scanner and a printer. Therefore,
you must install two different drivers; the TWAIN (scanner) driver and the printer
driver.
The installation instructions below refer to USB connection. For network connection
details refer to the Setup/Reference Guide.
If you are running Windows Server 2003 or Server 2008, you may need to follow
these steps to ensure WIA service starts when using the TWAIN driver and Actkey
Utility.
1. Click Start > Administrative Tools > Services.
2. Double-click Services.
3. Double-click Windows Image Acquisition (WIA).
4. From the Startup type menu, select Automatic.
5. Under Service status, click Start.
6. Click OK.

The TWAIN driver is used for “Pull Scanning”l. The TWAIN driver only works via USB

Paper Recommendations
Your MFP will handle a variety of print media, including a range of paper weights and
sizes, transparencies and envelopes. This section provides general advice on choice
of media, and explains how to use each type.
Standard Paper: The best performance will be obtained when using standard 60 to
120 g/m² paper designed for use in copiers and laser printers.
Not Recommended: Use of heavily embossed or very rough textured paper is not
recommended.
Letterhead Stationery:
Pre-printed
stationery can be used, but the ink must not offset
when exposed to the high fuser temperatures used in the printing process.
Tray
The paper tray can handle paper weights of 16 to 32 lb. US Bond (60 to 120 g/m²).

Multi Purpose
Tray
The multi purpose tray can handle the same media sizes as the cassette trays but in
weights from 60g/m² up to 163g/m². For very heavy paper stock, use the face up
(rear cover) paper stacker. This ensures that the paper path through the MFP is
almost straight.
Use the multi purpose tray for printing on envelopes and transparencies. Up to 50
sheets of transparencies or 10 envelopes can be loaded at one time, subject to a
maximum stacking depth of 10 mm for the MFX-3090 and one sheet at a
time for the MFX-3070.

Note
You must also set up the “From” details to allow e-mail sending.
43 • Configuring your machine
Notes
1. DHCP server: With DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol), a host can automatically be given a unique IP
address each time it connects to a network-making IP
address management an easier task for network
administrators. If the DHCP server is available from your
network, you do not need to enter TCP/IP, subnet mask,
gateway, and DNS information. Instead, this information will
be automatically given for the MFP.
2. IP Address: An IP (Internet Protocol) address uniquely
identifies a host connection to an IP network. System
administrator or network designer assigns the IP address.
The IP address consists of two parts, one identifying the
network and the one identifying your node. The IP address is
usually written as four numbers separated by periods. Each
number can be zero to 255. For example, 10.1.30.186 could
be an IP address.
3. SMTP: (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) is the main
communication protocol used to send and receive e-mail on
the Internet.
4. DNS: (Domain Name System). The DNS server identifies
hosts via names instead of IP addresses. If the DNS server is
available on your network, you can enter the domain name
instead of digits for your SMTP or POP3 servers, such as
Pegasus.com.tw instead of 120.3.2.23.
5. POP3: POP3 is the latest Post Office Protocol 3, this is a
service that stores and serves e-mails for various client
machines that are not connected to the Internet 24 hours a
day. E-mails are held in POP3 until you log on.
Internet
Scan
to e-mail
The MFP allows you to deliver your scanned document to e-mail addresses on the
network. The document is first scanned and converted to a standard PDF, JPEG or
TIFF file format and then transmitted to remote recipients simultaneously as an
e-mail attachment.
When you send an e-mail to someone using this MFP, it uses Simple Mail Transfer
Protocol (SMTP) to transfer your outgoing e-mails to your SMTP mail server, and then
sends these e-mails to your recipients through the internet.

Scan
Via the intranet with FTP (File Transfer Protocol) or CIFS (Common Internet File
System). The MFP allows you to save scanned documents directly to a designated
server or to a personal computer on the network in a standard PDF, JPEG, or TIFF file
format.
CIFS is the sharing system of Microsoft Windows. What is unique about this filing
function is that it allows all corporate users to share one machine to send documents
to each file folder on a designated server or individual computer.
The following settings or destinations must be defined by the system administrator
before the MFP can be used to distribute any scanned document(s) on the network.
• Network and E-mail parameters: Defines the parameters for TCP/IP, SMTP, and
to NetworkPC
POP3 protocols to send your scanned document to e-mail addresses.
45 • Configuring your machine
• Filing destinations: Defines the protocols and destinations to send your scanned
document to FTP servers or any personal computers on the network.
Note
1. If the system administrator has chosen DHCP, then the IP
address of TCP/IP, gateway, subnet mask, and DNS server
will be automatically given.
2. When installing the MFP for the first time, it is recommended
that the Administrator retain the default system settings.
The settings can be customized at a later date, once you are
familiar with the operation and functionality.

Connecting
Private Branch Exchanges (PBXs) are private telephone systems used to route calls
internally, for example, in a company. When dialling a telephone number, if a prefix
is required to open an outside line, the line is connected to a PBX. If this MFP is going
to be connected to a PBX, press the # key three times to insert a “-”, then type in the
destination fax number. This will ensure the MFP waits until an outside line is available
before dialling the rest of the number.

73 • Access Control
Access
The operation and functionality of this machine can be limited to authorized personnel
only by the simple introduction of a 4 to 9 digit PIN (Personal Identification Number).
This is known as Access Control. The greater the number of digits in the PIN - the
more secure it is.
Your MFP supports the following PIN types:
• Administrator PIN; This is the PIN for the system administrator(s).
If a PIN is registered as an administrator, the Admin password entry screen is
displayed, and when an Admin password is entered, it will be authenticated as an
administrator.
• User PIN; This is PIN for general users.
If a PIN is registered as a general user, the function selection screen is displayed,
also after PIN entry, the function selection screen is displayed.
After using the machine, you will be expected to log out. Leaving the machine in
access control mode will render the machine not usable by unauthorised users.

Printer Settings
Your printer’s operator panel menus provide access to many options.
The Windows printer driver also contains settings for many of these items. Where
items in the printer driver are the same as those in the operator panel menus, and
you print documents from Windows, the settings in the Windows printer driver will
override those settings in the operator panel menus.

Printing preferences
When you choose to print your document from a Windows application program a Print
dialog box appears. This dialog usually specifies the name of the printer on which you
will print your document. Next to the printer name is a Properties button.
When you click Properties a new window opens which contains a short list of the
printer settings available in the driver, which you can choose for this document. The
settings available from within your application are only those which you may want to
change for specific applications or documents. Settings you change here will usually
only last for as long as the particular application program is running.

1. Paper size should be the same as the page size of your document (unless you
wish to scale the printout to fit another size), and should also be the same as the
size of paper you will feed into the printer.
2. You can choose the source of the paper to feed, which may be Tray 1 (the
standard paper tray), Manual (MFX-3070), Multi Purpose Tray (MFX-3090), or
Tray 2 (if you have the optional second paper tray installed). You can also click
on the appropriate part of the screen graphic to select your preferred tray.
3. A variety of document finishing options can be selected, such as normal one page
per sheet, or N-up (where N can be 2 or 4) for printing scaled down pages at
more than one page per sheet.
4. Under 2-sided Printing, you can choose from auto or manual. Under manual 2sided Printing you can choose to print on one side of a sheet only or to use 2sided printing (duplex printing). Your printer allows you to carry out manual
duplex printing, meaning you must pass the paper through the printer twice. For
more information, see “2-sided (duplex) printing” on page 111. The Duplex Help
button also offers guidelines on how to carry out manual duplex printing.
5. If you have changed some printing preferences before and saved them as a set,
you can recall them to avoid having to set them individually each time you need
them.
6. A single on-screen button restores the default settings.

1. The output resolution of the printed page can be set as follows.
• The High Quality setting prints at 600 X 1200dpi for MFX-3070 and 1200 x
1200dpi for MFX-3090 is the best option for printing vector objects such
as graphics and text.
• The Normal setting prints at 600 x 600dpi and is suitable for most printing
jobs.
• The Draft setting prints at 300 x 300dpi and is suitable for printing draft
documents that contain mainly text. You can select Toner Saving to save
toner for some print jobs.
2. Page orientation can be set to either portrait (tall) or landscape (wide). Both
views can be rotated by 180 degrees.
3. You can print watermark text behind the main page image. This is useful for
marking documents as draft, confidential, etc.

If you would like to print on special stationery, such as forms and letterhead, but
do not want to use
pre-printed stationery,
you can create your own using Overlays.
For more information on Overlays and Macros refer to “Overlays and Macros
(Windows only)” on page 129. The Overlays button also offers guidelines on how
to carry out manual duplex printing.
4. In Raster (bitmap) mode, processing of the page image is done in the computer
leaving little processing for the printer to do, although the file size may be large.
In Vector mode, file sizes may be smaller and so transmission over a network, for
example, may be faster. These effects are more pronounced for graphics printing
than for text printing.
5. You can select up to 999 copies to print consecutively, although you will need to
top up the paper tray during such a long print run.
6. Your printed pages can be scaled to fit larger or smaller stationery, within a range
of 25% to 400% of the original size.
7. A single on-screen button restores the default settings.
