AirPrint®

AirPrint is a wireless technology that allows you to print from your iPhone installing a printer driver. AirPrint can be used with Apple

devices running iOS 4.2 or later. Your OKI printer comes with AirPrint configured ON and ready to

work once it is connected to your network.

Setup Requirements

To use AirPrint from your mobile device, you must be connected using Wi-Fi to the network your printer is connected to. Your printer can be connected to the wireless access point using either a wireless or wired connection.

Printing from your Apple iOS Device

Most applications on your iOS device that allow printing will allow you to use AirPrint. For example, if you would like to print the currently displayed web page using Safari, press the Action button and then the Print button. You will see the Printer Options dialog. Press the Printer button to select the desired printer from the list of AirPrint printers that were automatically discovered by your device. Then press the Print button to print the desired page.

Depending on features supported by the selected printer, you may also see options for selecting the number of copies or double-sided printing.

, iPod touch®, iPad®, or other iOS device without

Security

If you attempt to print a page and you receive a notification that says “Password required for…”, this means your network administrator has configured the printer to require a User ID and password in order to use this printer. Enter your User ID and password and press OK to print your document. Both User ID and password are case sensitive. After you have entered a correct User ID and password, your device will remember them so you will not have to enter them again for additional prints.

B710, B720, B730 User’s Guide > 16

User Controls

Your administrator may have established a list of authorized users for printing. Only these users will be allowed to print. If this feature is not in use and thus there are no authorized users, then the printer will allow any user to print as it does prior to the addition of the AirPrint User Control feature. Further, the printer’s admin website will allow the admin to enable/disable the User Control feature.

Print Media_________________

Paper Exit Paths

Before sending a job to the printer, make sure you have the correct exit path engaged.

Top Exit Path

The default path is the top exit bin (1). Printed pages exit face down.

B710, B720, B730 User’s Guide > 18

The Rear Exit Path

Always use the rear exit path for special media such as labels, card stock, envelopes, etc. This provides the straight-through path needed to prevent curling and jams.

Printed documents exit face up. To use the rear exit, be sure the exit lever (1) is pushed up and

the extension tray (2) is pul le d out .

See page 27 for more information.

Configuring Custom Sizes

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

Sense OFF and then set Custom Size for the intended tray.

You may also need to set it in the printer driver, depending on the paper size. See the description of Express Print for an easy way to

print on various Custom Sizes.

Caution!

When setting the paper size in 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 printer 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]. The printer will automatically detect the size and orientation of the loaded paper.

Automatic Tray Selection

From the properties dialog box in the printer driver, select

•paper size

•Media Type

• [Automatically Select] for [Paper Source].

The printer will first automatically detect paper trays loaded with the selected media type, then the tray that matches the document.

If there are multiple trays that match the criteria for automatic tray selection, a tray is selected based on the printer's Tr ay Priorit y

as set using the printer's web pages.

Note:

If there are no input trays that match the automatic tray selection, the display wil prompt you to load the media.

If you prefer, you can configure the printer to automaticall y select a tray with media of the nearest or larger size instead. To do this, enable Auto Resize in the printer menu under Admin Setup > Print Menu.

B710, B720, B730 User’s Guide > 41

Advanced Media Control

Auto Tray Change

When an input tray runs out of paper, auto tray changing enables the printer to switch to another available tray that contains the same Media size and type.

Media Check

Controls whether or not the paper size and media type specified in the print job must be used to satisfy the print request.

When both Auto Resize and Media Check are enabled, Auto Resize overrides Media Check in regard to paper size.

To force a specific paper size, disable Auto Resize in the printer menu (under Admin Setup > Print Menu).

Express Print

To use Express Print, you must disable Media Check. You can use the driver to do this.

When the printer is in Express Print mode, you can leave the default media settings as is in the printer, and it will assume the paper you put in the tray and selected in your driver is the correct size and type for the print job.

This allows you to switch between paper sizes easily without configuring custom paper sizes at the printer. It is up you to load the correct

media in the designated tray.

B710, B720, B730 User’s Guide > 42

Storing and Handling Media

To help prevent paper jams, poor print quality and printer breakdown, it is important to observ e the following recommendations when storing paper:

•Store paper

- at a temperature of 50 to 86°F (10 to 30°C)

- at relative humidity of 30 to 65%

- away from direct sunlight

- flat, not on its edge, bent or curled

- preferably in a cabinet

• After opening a ream of paper, use the original cover sheets to wrap up the paper not used.

To Prevent Paper Curling when Printing

it is important to follow the manufactures orientation instruction to “Print this side first ”

Printing a Job Stored in Memory

Note

If you will be using this feature, it is recommended that you purchase the optional Hard Disk Drive or the Compact Flash option to provide the memory required for storing the documents.

When you print a job, instead of printing it out directly, you can use the driver to store the job in the printer along with a 6-dig it password for accessing it.

Choose from the following options:

• Stored

These documents are stored in the printer for future printing. For example you might use this to store a frequently used form. The document will remain there until the expiration date you specify or until you delete it.

• Secure Print

For printing confidential documents. Store the passwordprotected print file in th e printer, then go to the printer and use your password to retrieve it for printing.

• Proof and Print 

Use this to test print a document before printing it in large quantities.

• Timed Job

Used to store a document in the printer for printing at a later time which you specify.

See the Help screens in the printer driver for information on using it to store documents in the printer.

B710, B720, B730 User’s Guide > 75

Points to Note When Sending E-mails

Security Issues

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

Therefore, we recommen d that you use methods to en sure 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 spam.

Caution Regarding Internet Provid er an d E-mail 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 private IP address. Functionality of

this printer is not guaranteed when it is assigned public 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 large amounts of data such as image data.

• There are also providers that allow reception of e-mails via

SMTP. Detailed adjustments with the provider are required in 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.

Driver-Set Print Features______

Use the print driver Printer Properties dialog box to configure these features.

Some of these features may also be configured in the printer menu or using the Embedded Web Server.

Manual Feed from Tray 1

Tray 1 can be set for manual feed in the Printer Properties in the driver. When Tray 1 is set to Manual mode, you must press <E

NTER> to print each sheet.

Collating

When you are printing multiple copies of a multi-page document, the printer is set by default to automatically collate the pages; i.e., all pages of the document wil print before the second copy of the document begins printing.

Without collating selected, the unit will print the total number of copies of each page before proceeding to the next page.

B710, B720, B730 User’s Guide > 78

2-Sided Printing/Duplex

The printer can automatically print on both sides of the paper for the models which include the duplex unit (standard on Models B710dn, B720dn and B730dn; optional on Models B710n, B720n and B730n). You can use two-sided printing to produce a document in the form of a small book.

Cover Sheet

The printer enables you to choose a different paper source for the cover sheet of a document. This allows you to use a different stock and/or color paper for the first page while sending the document as a single print job.

Note

The cover sheet must be the same size as the rest of the document.

Fit to Page

This allows you to scale the document to fit the paper size being used.

Note

This setting is unavailable if you have chosen a document style of N-Up or Pamphlet.

B710, B720, B730 User’s Guide > 79

N-up Printing (Multiple Pages to a Single Sheet)

1 2

3 4

You can print multiple pages on a single sheet when printing a multi-page document. This can save paper and is handy for draft reviews. You can print one, two, four, six, eight, nine, or sixteen pages per sheet.

Finishing

You can add room on a page to allow for binding without modifying the document in the authoring application.

Poster Printing

If you have a large page image that can not be printed on the available paper sizes, you can print the document in poster printing mode. Poster Print prints the document to the edges of the paper with no border and breaks the document up into multiple pages. The pages can then be placed together, edge-toedge, to create a large version of the printed page.
