panel illuminate.

RODUCING A TEST PRINT

To check that your printer is operational, produce a test print on a sheet of 80 gsm A4 paper (for example) as follows:

CAUTION!

Allow at least 5 seconds between turning the printer ON after turning it OFF. A shorter time interval between turning ON/OFF operations may cause printer power failure.

Do not turn the printer OFF while it is printing as this may result in damage to the print head.

ML1120/ML1190 User’s Guide – Getting started > 13

ONNECTING TO A COMPUTER

In this section you will interconnect your printer and computer, install the printer driver in your computer and print a test page.

NTERFACES

Your printer is equipped with three data interfaces:

CAUTION!

bi-directional (IEEE 1284 compliant) parallel cable.

> Serial: for direct connection to a PC. This port requires a

bi-directional RS232C serial interface cable.

> USB: for connection to a PC running Windows 98 or

above. This port requires a shielded cable less than 5m long conforming to USB version 2.0.

NOTE Interface cables are not supplied with your printer.

NTERCONNECTION

1. Ensure that both printer and computer are turned OFF.

2. Connect the required interface cable, serial (1), USB (2),

or parallel (3), to the printer and then to the computer.

ML1120/ML1190 User’s Guide – Connecting to a computer > 15

Break off the tabs (4) to allow the cables to sit neatly underneath the printer.

3. Turn ON the printer.

4. Turn ON the computer.

NSTALLING THE PRINTER DRIVER

Insert the Drivers CD into your computer and follow the onscreen instructions to install the printer driver for use with your printer.

RINTING A TEST PAGE

As an example, using Windows XP:

1. Use Start > Printers and Faxes to show the Printers and Faxes window.

2. Highlight the driver for your printer.

3. Use File > Properties to show the Properties window.

4. On the General tab, click the Print Test Page button.

printer – computer setup.

ML1120/ML1190 User’s Guide – Connecting to a computer > 16

RINTING FROM A COMPUTER

When printing to your printer from, for example, a Windows application on your computer, make your printing selections from the driver windows that appear on screen. These driver windows have been designed to be easy to use and intuitive while supplementary on-line help is available by clicking each window Help button.

ML1120/ML1190 User’s Guide – Printing from a computer > 17

APER HANDLING

This section describes how to use cut sheet paper and continuous forms in your printer.

OADING CUT SHEET PAPER

1. Ensure that the printer is switched ON.

NOTE If there are any continuous forms in the printer, eject them as described in “Removing continuous forms” on page 36.

2. Ensure that the Pin Tractor covers are closed to avoid the possibility of paper jams.

3. Ensure the Paper Type Lever (1) is set to Cut Sheet.

ML1120/ML1190 User’s Guide – Paper handling > 18

4. Set the left paper margin by adjusting the Paper Guide (1). Position the edge of the Paper Guide (1) at the tip of the Printed Line Marker arrow (2) on the Paper Tray.

5. Remove the Access Cover and set the Paper Thickness Lever (1) to suit the paper. See “Setting the Paper

Thickness lever” on page 38.

CAUTION!

If the Paper Thickness Lever setting does not match the paper being used, paper feeding and printing may not work properly.

6. With the printing side facing downwards and the left edge

aligned with the Paper Guide (1), carefully insert the

ML1120/ML1190 User’s Guide – Paper handling > 19

paper on the Input Tray (2) into the printer until it is gripped.

NOTE Ensure that the paper is accurately aligned along the Paper Guide to avoid the possibility of skew printing.

When printing an envelope, do not fold up the flap. A flap aligned along the Paper Guide can lead to skew printing.

JECTING CUT SHEET PAPER

When the printer reaches the end of the cut sheet page it automatically ejects the page. If required, add another sheet for the printer to continue printing from where it left off.

To eject a cut sheet left in the printer, carry out the following:

1. Press the SEL button to put the printer off-line.

2. Press the LOAD/EJECT button and the paper is ejected to

the Paper Tray.

NOTE Paper longer than A4 length (297 mm) may overlap and possibly fall off the Paper Tray.

ML1120/ML1190 User’s Guide – Paper handling > 20

OADING CONTINUOUS FORMS

ETTING UP CONTINUOUS FORMS

To avoid paper feeding problems, carry out the following:

1. Check your printer is on a surface approximately 75 cm above the floor.

2. Position the continuous forms supply directly below the printer, no more than 3 cm left or right of the printer paper path.

3. Ensure the rear of the printer is close to and parallel with the edge of the surface and at least 60 cm from any wall.

EEDING CONTINUOUS FORMS (REAR FEED

)

1. Ensure that the printer is turned ON.

NOTE If there is a cut sheet in the printer, eject it as described in

“Ejecting cut sheet paper” on page 20.

2. Set the Paper Type Lever to Continuous Forms

ML1120/ML1190 User’s Guide – Paper handling > 21

3. Remove the Access Cover and set the Paper Thickness Lever (1) to suit the paper. See “Setting the Paper

Thickness lever” on page 38.

NOTE If the Paper Thickness Lever setting does not match the paper being used, paper feeding and printing may not work properly.

4. Remove the Input Tray and Rear Cover together by gripping the Input Tray at both sides and pulling it up and away from the printer.

ML1120/ML1190 User’s Guide – Paper handling > 22

5. Lift the locking lever (1) of the left Pin Tractor and slide the Pin Tractor as required to adjust the paper position.

Press the locking lever back down to lock the Pin Tractor in the desired position.

6. Lift the locking lever (1) of the right Pin Tractor and slide the Pin Tractor to the required position to accommodate the width of the continuous forms to be used. Move the rear paper guide (2) to midway between the left (3) and right (4) Pin Tractors.

7. Open the left and right Pin Tractor covers and feed the continuous forms in the direction of the arrows, locating the sprocket holes in the forms onto the sprocket pins.

ML1120/ML1190 User’s Guide – Paper handling > 23

Ensure that the forms are properly aligned on the sprocket pins, then close the Pin Tractor covers.

8. Adjust the right Pin Tractor to accommodate the width of the continuous forms, taking care that the forms are held neither too loosely nor too tightly between the Pin Tractors. Press the locking lever down to lock the right Pin Tractor in the desired position.

9. Replace the Input Tray and Rear Cover by fitting the Rear Cover into the grooves at the back of the printer and

ML1120/ML1190 User’s Guide – Paper handling > 24

pushing gently forward until the Input Tray clips into place.
