Supported Paper
Use paper that meets the following conditions*1:
● Paper that meets the conditions for plain paper.
● An ink used for a part printing is heat resistant (230°C).
Note
● When specifying a printing area, please take into account the differences of printing position as followings:
2
2. Printing Basic Operation
Print start position: ±2 mm, Paper skew: ±1 mm/100 mm, Image stretch: ±1 mm/100 mm
(when paper weight is 80g/m2)
● This printer cannot print on an ink.
Use paper that meets the following conditions*2:
● A pigment or an ink used to color paper is heat resistant (230°C).
● Paper that has same characteristics with light paper and used for an electronic photo printer.
Paper Recommendations
Your printer 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
2
using standard 75 - 90 g/m
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.
CAUTION
● Envelopes should be free from twist, curl or
other deformations. They should also be of the
rectangular ap 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 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.
Storing Paper
Store paper under the following conditions to
maintain quality.
● Inside a cabinet or other dry and dark place
● On a at surface
● Temperature: 20°C
● Humidity: 50% RH (relative humidity)
Do not store in the following locations.
● Directly on the oor
● In direct sunlight
● Near the inside of an exterior wall
● On an uneven surface
● Where static electricity may be generated
● In places that are excessively hot or where
temperature rapidly changes
● Near a copier, air conditioner, heater, or duct
Note
● Do not unwrap the paper until you are ready to use the
paper.
● Do not leave paper unwrapped for a long period. Doing
so may result in paper handling and print quality issues.
● Depending on a media you use, usage conditions and a
storing conditions, a decrease in paper quality or curling
of the paper may occur.

Replacing the Image Drum
Life Span of Image Drum
When the “%COLOR% Image Drum Near
Life” message appears on the display screen,
prepare a replacement image drum.
If you continue printing, the message
“%COLOR% Image Drum Life” will be
displayed and printing will stop.
A guideline for replacing the image drum is
every 30,000 pages (YMC), every 9,000 pages
(W) or so for A4 sized paper (with single-sided
printing). However, this number of pages is for
common printing conditions (3 pages at a time).
Printing one page at a time reduces the drum
life by about half.
The actual number of printed pages may be
halved again relative to the above guideline,
depending on the printing conditions.
If you continue to print more than the above,
the printer will force the printing to stop.
12 Close the front cover (2).

Note
● The front cover cannot be closed if the output tray is

Memo
● If you must dispose of a toner cartridge, put it in a
plastic bag or similar container and dispose of it in
accordance with your municipality’s ordinances or
guidelines.
Note
● The actual number of pages you can print with the image
drum depends on how you use it. The above guideline
may be reduced by more than half, depending on the
conditions of printing.
● Though opening and closing the output tray may extend
the life of a image drum for a while, it is recommended to
replace it soon after the “Install New image drum” is
displayed.
● The print quality may deteriorate after the toner cartridge
has been unpacked for a year. Replace it with a new one.
● Press the scroll button or and select [Admin Setup] >
[Panel Setup] > [Near Life Status], if this is set to
[Disable], then the “%COLOR% Image Drum Near
Life” message does not appear.
Procedure for Replacement
Note
● If you use a new image drum with the toner cartridges
currently in use, the remaining amount indication of the
toner cartridges will not display correctly.
The messages “%COLOR% Image Drum Near Life” or
“%COLOR% Image Drum Life”
soon after replacement.
● The image drum (the green tube) is very delicate. Handle
it carefully.
● Do not expose the image drum to direct sunlight or very
bright interior light (approximately more than 1500 lux).
Even under the normal interior light, do not leave it for
more than 5 minutes.
● In order for the printer to exhibit its full performance,
please use genuine OKI consumables.
● Service for problems due to use of consumable items
other than genuine OKI consumables will incur fees
even in the warranty period or the maintenance contract
period. (Use of consumable items other than genuine OKI
consumables does not always cause problems, but please
exhibit caution when using those.)
