NTRODUCTION

Congratulations on choosing this Multi Function Product (MFP). It i s d esi gn ed w it h a d va nc e d features, to give you clear, vibrant color prints and crisp black and white pages at high speed on a range of office print media.

With this MFP, you can instantly scan paper-based documents and deliver the electronic image to various destinations including E-mail addresses, printers, ftp servers or someone else's computer on the network. This MFP also has a “walk-up” fax facility allowing you to send your documents to a destination fax number instantly.

Your MFP includes these features:

> Multi-tasking to allow scanning one job while printing another to ensure greater

productivity.

> Digital Copying - An intuitive control panel, makes digital copying fast and easy.

> Up to 600 x 600dpi (dots per inch) copy resolution.

> Actkey utility - enables the MFP to receive one key touch commands from a locally

connected computer (“pull scan”).

> Scan to E-mail - Connected to an Ethernet network and a SMTP server, this MFP

allows you to transmit document(s) over the internet via E-mail. With a touch of the E-mail on-screen button and the selection of your recipients' E-mail addresses, the document(s) is/are first scanned and converted into an image file, and then transmitted to remote recipients within minutes.

> Scan to Shared Folder - Allows you to send scanned documents to a server or a

personal computer's file folder over an intranet with FTP (File Transfer Protocol), HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol), CIFS (Common Internet File System) protocol. The scan to filing feature removes the need for the mail server to handle large attachments.

> Multiple Pages Sending - With the Auto Document Feeder (ADF), the MFP allows a

stack of up to 50 page document(s) to be continuously scanned.

> Faxing - An intuitive control panel, makes direct faxing fast and easy.

> Advanced fax transmission and reception, including delayed transmissions, sending

to multiple locations, confidential transmission and reception, and polling.

> Address Book/Phone Book/Profiles Managing - This provides a convenient way to

manage all the E-mail addresses, fax numbers and profiles (filing destinations).

> ProQ/High Quality, multi-level technology produces subtler tones and smoother

gradations of color to lend photographic quality to your documents.

> 600 x 600, 1200 x 600 dpi (dots per inch) and ProQ/High Quality print resolution for

high quality image production showing the finest detail.

> Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6).

> Single Pass color Digital LED technology for high speed processing of your printed

pages.

> PostScript 3, PCL 5C, PCL 6, IBM PPR and Epson FX emulations for industry standard

operation and wide compatibility with most computer software.

> 10Base-T and 100Base-TX network connection lets you share this valuable resource

among users on your office network.

> Photo Enhance mode to improve printouts of photographic images (not available on

PS drivers).

> Automatic two-sided (duplex) printing for economical use of paper and compact

printing of larger documents.

Introduction > 11

Additionally, the following optional features are also available:

> Additional paper tray for loading a further 530 sheets to minimise operator

intervention, or different paper stocks for letterhead stationery, alternative paper sizes or other print media.

> Additional memory allows printing of more complex pages. For example, high

resolution banner printing.

> Four modes of toner save function (Default: Off, Low, Middle, High) are available

when using Copy/DirectPrint/Fax function.

> Can use wireless LAN.

> Can use AirPrint. Can print from iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or other iOS device

without installing printer drivers.

When the rear output tray is folded down paper exits the printer through the rear of the printer and is stacked here face up. This is mainly used for heavy print media. When used in conjunction with the multi purpose feed tray, the paper path through the printer is essentially straight. This avoids bending the paper around curves in the paper path and enables feeding of up to 220g/m² media.

APER RECOMMENDATIONS

Your MFP will handle a variety of print media, including a range of paper weights and sizes. This section provides general advice on choice of media, and explains how to use each type.

The best performance will be obtained when using standard 75~90g/m² paper designed for use in copiers and laser printers.

Use of heavily embossed or very rough textured paper is not recommended.

Pre-printed stationery can be used, but the ink must not offset when exposed to the high fuser temperatures used in the printing process.

Envelopes

CAUTION!

Envelopes should be free from twist, curl or other deformations. They should also be of the rectangular flap type, with glue that remains intact when subjected to hot roll pressure fusing used in this type of printer. Window envelopes are not suitable.

Labels

CAUTION!

Labels should also be of the type recommended for use in copiers and laser printers, in which the base carrier page is entirely covered by labels. Other types of label stock may damage the printer due to the labels peeling off during the printing process.
