The Objective of the International Energy
Star Program

To protect the global environment and conserve energy sources, the International Energy
Star Program encourages the following product features. Oki confirms this printer satisfies
the requirements for this program.

Low Power Mode Feature

This product has a power-saving feature, which switches the machine to the low power
mode automatically if the machine is on and not operated for a certain period of time. In this
mode the machine stops power to the fuser and saves power consumption. The default low
power mode start time is set at 5 minutes.

You can set the low power mode start time between 5 and 60 minutes in 1 minute intervals.
For details on how to set the time, refer to “Admin Menu” (P. 64).

Note

• The sleep mode feature in this machine saves further power consumption than the low power mode.

Before printing, set the custom size on the printer driver.
You have to configure the settings on the control panel too when loading custom size paper

in trays 1 to 4 for printing. For details on setting the control panel, refer to “3.3 Setting
Custom Paper Sizes” (P. 52).

Important

• When setting the paper size on the printer driver and the control panel, be sure to specify the same size

as the actual paper used. Setting the wrong size for printing will cause the machine failure. This is
especially true if you configure a bigger size when using a narrow width paper.

On the printer driver, set the custom size in the [Custom Paper Size] dialog box. This section
explains the procedure using Windows XP as an example.

Note

• For Windows NT 4.0/Windows 2000/Windows XP, only users with administrator’s rights can change the

settings. Users without the rights can only check the contents.

• When setting the [Custom Paper Size] dialog box on Windows NT 4.0/Windows 2000/Windows XP,

settings of other printers on the computer will also be affected as the form data base of the computer is
used by a local printer. For a shared printer on the network, settings of other shared printers on the same
network in another computer will also be affected as the form data base on the server with existing print
queue is used. When setting on Windows 95/Windows 98/Windows Me, settings of other printers on the
computer will not be affected as the settings are for paper sizes defined by each printer icon. For shared
printers on the network, settings of other shared printers on the same network but in another computer
will not be affected as the settings are for paper sizes defined by each printer icon.

Security Issues

E-mails are sent via the Internet, connecting computers from all over the world. As a result,
caution must be made relating to security issues such that information is not easily seen or
altered by third parties.

Therefore, you are recommended to use methods to ensure that important information is
secured. You are also advised not to reveal the e-mail address of this printer to third parties
to avoid receiving junk mails.

Setting Permitted Domain

You can configure this printer such that it only receives e-mails from specific domains by
using OkiWebRemote.

Caution on Connecting This Printer to Internet Provider and Using E­mail Features

• In the case where a flat-rate contract with the Internet provider exists and the user is not

always connected to the network, a telephone charge will be incurred every time this
printer retrieves data regularly from the mail server.

• Connect the printer to an IP masqueraded environment. Functionality of this printer is not

guaranteed when it is assigned global IP addresses.

• When receiving e-mails via POP, always apply an exclusive e-mail account for the printer.

Using a common e-mail account shared with other users will result in errors.

• When the internet connection speed is slow, it takes time to receive huge data such as

image data.

• There are also providers that allow reception of e-mails via SMTP. Detailed adjustments

with the provider is required for such cases.

• When setting up the e-mail configuration in an environment where MTA support is set up

in private segments, match the operating configuration.

48 3 About Paper

Storing and Handling Paper

Even for suitable papers, poor storage conditions may lead to a change in the paper quality,
paper jams, poor print quality and machine breakdown. Take note of the following points
when storing paper:

• Store paper in the following locations: Temperature of 10 - 30 °C with a relative humidity
of 30 - 65%

• After opening a ream of paper, use the original cover sheets to wrap up the paper not
used and store it in a cabinet or a location with low humidity.

• Do not let the paper stand but store it in a flat location.

• Ensure that the paper is stored properly without being bent or curled.

• Store the paper in a location not exposed to direct sunlight.

3.2 Loading Paper

Loading Paper in a Paper Tray

Refer to

• Paper type and size that can be loaded in paper tray: “Usable Paper” (P. 45)

1. Place the paper tray on a flat surface and

remove the lid.

2. If the base plate of the paper tray is raised,

push it down.

3. When loading paper longer than A4 size,

slide the left and right lock tabs in the paper
tray outwards to unlock them.

3.2 Loading Paper 49

4. Hold the grip of the paper tray and pull its

extendable part to the front until it reaches
its maximum.

5. Squeeze the length guide and slide it to the

desired paper size (1). Squeeze the right
width guide and slide it to the desired paper
size (2).

6. Load the paper with the side to be printed

facing up and with all four corners aligned.

Important

• Do not place paper over the right width guide.

• Do not load paper exceeding the maximum fill line or the maximum capacity allowed.

• Align the right width guide with the paper width correctly. If the right width guide is not in place, the paper

will not be properly fed and this may cause paper jams.

7. Close the lid of the paper tray and push the tray completely into the printer.

Important

• The lid of the tray must be firmly closed. If not, the paper might become misaligned.

8. Depending on the types and sizes of the loaded paper, you need to configure settings

on the control panel. Change the paper type when non-plain paper such as recycled
paper, heavyweight paper or transparencies are loaded. Configure the paper size
when custom size paper is loaded.

Refer to

• Paper type and size that can be loaded: “Usable Paper” (P. 45)

• Setting paper size: “3.3 Setting Custom Paper Sizes” (P. 52)

• Setting paper type: “3.4 Setting Paper Types” (P. 53)

50 3 About Paper

Automatic Tray Selection

If you display the properties dialog box of the printer driver and select a paper type for
[Specify Paper Type] and [Auto] for [Paper Source] on the [Tray/Output] tab for printing, this
printer will be able to automatically detect paper trays loaded with the selected paper type
and then among them, select the tray that matches the size and orientation of the document
to be printed. This feature is known as automatic tray selection.

If there are multiple trays that match those criteria for automatic tray selection, a tray is
selected based on the settings for [Tray Priority] on the control panel.

In addition, if [None] is specified for [Specify Paper Type], a tray is selected based on the
settings of [Paper Priority] on the control panel. If the same priority is not assigned to more
than one paper type, a tray is selected based on the settings of [Tray Priority].

Note

• If there are no paper trays that match the automatic tray selection, an error message prompting for

replenishment of paper will be displayed. You can configure the printer not to display this message but to
automatically select a nearest or larger paper size of the document for printing. (Substitute Tray)

• If paper runs out during printing, a paper tray containing paper of the same size and orientation of the

paper used for printing will be selected to continue printing (automatic tray switching). If [None] is
specified for [Specify Paper Type], the paper types that have not been specified for [Paper Priority] are
excluded from the options of the automatic tray selection and automatic tray switching.

• You can also set the paper tray priority in OkiWebRemote.

• If there are no paper trays that match the paper types that are set for [Specify Paper Type], a message

prompting to confirm printing on another paper type will be displayed. Press the <FEED/SELECT>
button to print on paper of another type or press <CANCEL> to cancel the job.

Refer to

• Setting on the control panel: “Printer Settings” (P. 79)

• Specify Paper Type: Online Help for the printer driver

3.2 Loading Paper 51

3.3 Setting Custom Paper Sizes

To print on custom size paper loaded in trays 1 to 4, you must set the paper size on the
control panel.

You may also need to set it on the printer driver, depending on the paper size.
This section explains how to set the size on the control panel.
For details on registration from the printer driver, refer to “Setting Custom Paper Sizes”

(P. 26).

Important

• When setting the paper size on the printer driver and control panel, be sure to specify the same size as

the actual paper used. Setting the wrong size for printing will cause machine failure. This is especially
true if you configure a bigger size when using a narrow width paper.

Note

• To return to standard paper size settings, select [Auto] in step 6 below. This printer will automatically

detect the size and orientation of the loaded paper.

3.4 Setting Paper Types

Prior settings on the control panel are required for the types of paper loaded in trays 1 to 4.
For accurate image quality processing, refer to the following table and set the paper types
on the control panel.

Important

• Paper type settings must match those of the actual paper loaded in the trays. Otherwise, image quality

cannot be processed accurately. Toner may not fuse properly on the paper, resulting in dirty and poor
quality printouts.

• Changes in paper type settings on the printer driver are not reflected in this printer.

Allocate Memory

*3 (refer to P. 85)

[Allocate Memory] menu is used to change the capacity of the memory for each interface
and the form memory.

In this printer, you can change the following memory allocation.

• PS Memory

• HPGL auto layout memory

• Receive buffer memory

• Print page buffer

Important

• Changing the memory capacity will reset the memory and delete all data stored in each memory area.

• You cannot exceed the overall memory capacity during memory allocation. If the setting value exceeds

the actual memory capacity, the system will automatically adjust it at power on.

• If the memory is running out when the port is set to [Enable], the port may be disabled automatically. In

this case, you need to disable the port(s) you are not using or change the memory allocation. However,
the parallel and USB ports will not stop automatically.

Note

• The memory allocation settings (except the print page buffer setting) are available in the control panel

and OkiWebRemote.

• The print page buffer is the area in which the actual print image can be drawn. The print page buffer is

allocated to the remaining area after the memory is allocated to all other uses. Therefore, you cannot
directly change the print page buffer capacity. You can check the actual print page buffer size in [System
Settings List]. You can also check it in OkiWebRemote. When you want to print a high-resolution
document, allocate memory so that the print page buffer size is large.

PS

Specifies the memory capacity for PostScript.
Specify the memory capacity between 4.50 and 96.00 MB in increments of 0.25 MB. The

default is [12.00 M]. The maximum capacity you can set varies depending on the free

Specify the memory capacity between 64 and 5120 KB in increments of 32 KB. The default

is [64K]. The maximum capacity you can set varies depending on the free memory capacity.
If the hard disk (optional) is installed, the hard disk memory is used for the auto layout. You

cannot change its capacity. [Hard Disk] is displayed on the screen.

4.2 Description of Menu Items 81

Bufer Size

For each interface, specify the memory capacity of the receive buffer (in which the data sent
from a computer is saved temporarily). For LPD, SMB, and IPP, specify the availability of
spool processing, locations, and memory capacity.

You can change the receive buffer capacity depending on how busy the conditions are and
purposes. Increasing the receive buffer capacity may increase the disconnection speed of
the computer for each interface. The maximum capacity you can set varies depending on
the free memory capacity.

Note

• If a port is disabled, the items for it will not be displayed.

• Even if the memory capacity is increased, the disconnection speed of a computer may not be changed

due to the data volume sent from a computer.


