Installing Drivers and Utilities
Your machine is supplied with the following drivers:
• TWAIN (scanner) driver: Windows only, USB only
• Printer driver: PCL5e (all models), PCL 6 (all models), PostScript3
• Fax driver: Windows 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.
Windows: Installing the Twain (Scanner) Driver and Printer Drivers
TWAIN Driver: Pull versus Push Scanning
Pull Scanning = initiating a scan from your computer via software.
Push Scanning: initiating a scan by pressing a button on the MFP’s front panel
The TWAIN driver is used for “Pull Scanning”l. The TWAIN driver only works via USB connections. This means it's not possible to control the scanner over the network from your computer.
Installing the Drivers
There are two ways of installing the drivers:
20 • Getting Started
Page 21
• Oki Driver Installer Program (recommended method)
• Plug and Play (USB only)
Oki Driver Installer Installation
Before powering up the printer
1. Run the Oki driver installer program from the CD-ROM supplied with your unit.
2. Plug in the printer and switch it on.
Windows completes the installation of the TWAIN and printer drivers automatically.
Plug and Play Installation
When the MFP is plugged into a PC using a USB cable, you'll be prompted to install two different drivers; the TWAIN (scanner) driver first and then the printer driver.
1. Attach the printer to a USB port on your computer.
2. Switch on the Printer.
3. Insert the Drivers & Utilities CD supplied with you unit.
Note7
If the CD runs automatically, cancel the dialog box.
The ‘New Hardware Found' screen displays.

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.

Note
The optional second tray can also handle the above paper sizes except for Statement.
If you have identical paper stock loaded in another tray (the optional 2nd or the multi purpose tray) you can have the MFP switch to another tray when the current tray runs out of paper. When printing from Windows applications, this function is enabled in the driver settings. When printing from other systems, this function is enabled in the Printer menu.
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.
28 • Getting Started

40•Configuring your machine
Page 41
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 communication features
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.

9. To confirm, press the Enter key.
Note
To cancel the IP address, press the Stop key until you exit the menu without saving the changes.
Scan to NetworkPC
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
POP3 protocols to send your scanned document to e-mail addresses.
42•Configuring your machine
Page 43
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.
Configuration
There are a number of configuration options available which allow you to change the scanner, fax and printer settings to suit your own needs. There are three methods of configuring your MFP:

Access Control ___________________
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.
Enabling Access Control
Access Control Enable/Disable is switched in Menu > Admin Setup > System Setup > Access Control.
If your administrator has enabled access control on your machine, it will automatically start up in access control mode. You will not be able to use it until you have provided valid login information.
With Access Control set to enable, the display reverts to the System Setup screen immediately following the setting change. If one of the functions such as Print, Fax Send or PC Scan is running, the display will only revert to the System Setup screen when the task has been completed.
Logging in
1. If the Enter PIN screen is displayed, use the keypad to enter your PIN.
2. Press Enter (or the Start button) to confirm.
Note
A valid PIN consists of 4 to 9 digits.
Numbers entered are not displayed on-screen, they are replaced by “*”.
If the PIN entered in invalid, “Incorrect Password” is dispalyed for 3 seconds and the display reverts to the Enter the PIN screen.
3. At the Enter Password screen, use the on-screen keypad to enter your
password.
70 • Access Control
Page 71
4. Use the Up arrow key to highlight Done and press Enter to confirm.
Logging out
When you have finished using the machine, make sure you log out:
Note
With Access Control enabled, Logout options are displayed in the Menu on the Mode Selection screen.
1. Using the Down arrow key, highlight Logout and then press Enter.
The Confirm Logout screen is displayed.
2. Using the Down arrow key, highlight Yes and then press Enter to confirm.
The display reverts to the Enter PIN screen.
Note
When the MFP control panel is left inactive for a prescribed length of time, the display automatically reverts to the Enter PIN screen if Access Control is enabled.
Operation time-out
When the MFP control panel is left inactive for a prescribed length of time (Operation Time-out), the display automatically reverts to the idle screen if Access Control is disabled.
If an error state occurs, Operation Time-out is disabled.
After Operation Time-out, the display automatically reverts to the Enter PIN screen if Access Control is enabled.
The length of the Operation Time-out depends on the setting in Menu Mode > Admin Setup > System Setup > Return to Standby Time.

Printer Settings in Windows ________
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 in Windows applications
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.

standard paper tray), Multi Purpose Tray, 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.

sided 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 108. The Duplex Help button also offers guidelines on how to carry out manual duplex printing.

• 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 127. 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.

1. Dithering produces an intermediate greyscale by adjusting the combination of
dots used in printing. Selecting a setting determines the degree of detail with which a graphics image will be printed. Mesh determines that a screen of dots is used for dithering while Line Art determines that an array of lines is used for dithering.
2. Select dithering texture by setting the size of dots used in the halftone screen.
3. Set this control to print greyscale effects in black without dithering. Select the
check-box to disable greyscale printing or de-select the check-box to enable greyscale printing.
4. You can manually adjust lightness (the higher the setting the lighter the print)
and contrast (the higher the setting the greater the contrast).
5. A single on-screen button restores the default settings.

Setting from Windows control panel
When you open the driver properties window directly from Windows, rather than from within an application program, a somewhat more extensive range of settings is provided. Changes made here will generally affect all documents you print from Windows applications, and will be remembered from one Windows session to the next.

1. This area lists some of the main features of your printer, including optional
items.
2. This button opens the same windows as described earlier for items which can
be set from within application programs. Changes you make here, however, will become the new default settings for all Windows applications.
3. This button prints a test page to ensure that your printer is working.

1. You can specify which times of day your printer will be available.
2. Indicates current priority, from 1 (lowest) to 99 (highest). Highest priority
documents will print first.
3. Specifies that documents should be spooled (stored in a special print file)
before being printed. The document is then printed in the background, allowing your application program to become available more quickly. Options follow:
This specifies that printing should not start until the last page has been spooled. If your application program needs a lot of time for further computation in the middle of printing, causing the print job to pause for more than a short period, the printer could prematurely assume that the document has finished. Selecting this option would prevent that situation, but printing will be completed a little later, as the start is delayed.
This is the opposite choice to the one above. Printing starts as soon as possible after the document begins spooling.
4. This specifies that the document should not be spooled, but printed directly.
Your application will not normally be ready for further use until the print job is complete. This requires less disk space on your computer, since there is no spool file.
