Toner cartridge and drum cartridge
R When replacing the toner cartridge or drum cartridge,
do not allow dust, water, or liquids to come in contact
with the drum. This may affect print quality.
R For optimal performance, genuine Panasonic toner
cartridges and drum cartridges are recommended.
We cannot be responsible for problems that may be
caused by a non-Panasonic toner cartridge or drum
cartridge:
– Damage to the unit
– Poor print quality
– Improper operation
Toner cartridge
R Do not leave the toner cartridge out of the protective
bag for a long time. It will decrease the toner life.
Drum cartridge
R Read the instructions on page 10 before you begin
installation of the drum cartridge. After you have read
them, open the drum cartridge protective bag. The

Exposing it to light may damage the drum. Once
you have opened the protective bag:
– Do not expose the drum cartridge to light for
more than 5 minutes.
– Do not touch or scratch the black drum
surface inside of the drum cartridge.
– Do not place the drum cartridge near dust or
dirt, or in a high humidity area.

The paper input tray unit can hold:
– Up to 250 sheets of 60 g/m2 to 75 g/m2 paper.
– Up to 230 sheets of 80 g/m2 paper.
– Up to 200 sheets of 90 g/m2 paper.
R A4, letter, B5 and 16K-size paper can be used. B5
and 16K-size paper can only be used when using the
unit for printing or copying.
R Please refer to page 100 for information on recording
paper.
R The unit is set for printing A4-size plain paper by
default.
– To use other paper sizes, change the
recording paper size setting (feature #380 on
page 58).
– To use thin paper, change the recording paper
type setting (feature #383 on page 58).
Note for recording paper:
R We recommend that you test paper (especially
special sizes and types of paper) on the unit before
purchasing large quantities.
R Do not use the following types of paper:
– Paper with cotton and/or fibre content that is over
20 %, such as letterhead paper or paper used for
resumes
– Extremely smooth or shiny paper, or paper that is
highly textured
– Coated, damaged or wrinkled paper
– Paper with foreign objects attached, such as tabs
or staples
– Paper that has dust, lint or oil stains
– Paper that will melt, vaporize, discolour, scorch
or emit dangerous fumes near 200 °C, such as
vellum paper. These materials may transfer onto
the fusing roller and cause damage.
– Moist paper
– Inkjet paper
R Some paper is designed to be printed on only one
side. Try printing on the other side of the paper if you
are not happy with the print quality, or if misfeeding
occurs.
R For proper paper feeding and best print quality, we
recommend using long-grained paper.
R Do not use paper of different types or thicknesses at
the same time. This may cause paper jams.
R Avoid double-sided printing.
R Do not use paper printed from this unit for
double-sided printing with other copiers or printers.
This may cause paper jams.
R To avoid curling, do not open paper packs until you
are ready to use the paper. Store unused paper in the
original packaging, in a cool and dry location.
R For customers who live in high humidity areas:
Please be sure to store paper in an air-conditioned
room at all times. If you print using moist paper, it may
cause paper jam.

2.10 Configuring the unit to access the LAN (KX-MB2000/ KX-MB2010/KX-MB2030 only)
You can print documents, scan documents, receive
faxes or send faxes (KX-MB2030 only) using a computer
connected to the LAN. To enable these features, you
need to set the IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway in the unit.
Important:
R Consult your network administrator when setting
the IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway.
2.10.1 Setting up automatically with a DHCP server
Your situation:
– When only one unit is connected to the LAN.
If your network administrator manages the network with
a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server,
it will automatically assign an IP (Internet Protocol)
address, subnet mask, and default gateway to the unit.
1 After connecting the LAN cable to the unit and the
computer, turn the power switch ON.
R The IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway will be set automatically.
2 Install Multi-Function Station on the computer that
you want to use it with. See page 24 for details.
Note:
R You can connect two or more units and assign IP
addresses automatically with a DHCP server, but we
recommend assigning static IP addresses manually
for each unit to avoid network access and
configuration troubles.
2.10.2 Setting up manually
Your situation:
– When your network administrator does not manage
the network with a DHCP server.
– When two or more units are connected to the LAN.
You need to assign an IP address, subnet mask, and
default gateway manually.

number, and make the correction.
2.10.3 Setting the computer for PC fax reception (KX-MB2030 only)
You need to select the computer that will be used for
receiving faxes.
Important:
R Make sure the PC fax setting is set to “ALWAYS”
or “CONNECTED” beforehand (feature #442 on
page 63).
R Make sure the fax preview mode is turned OFF
beforehand (feature #448 on page 52).
