L The unit is set for printing letter-size paper by
default. If you want to use A4 or legal-size paper,
change the setting (feature #380 on page 51).
Note for recording paper:
L We recommend that you test paper (especially
special sizes and types of paper) on the unit before
purchasing large quantities.
L Do not use the following types of paper:
– Paper with cotton and/or fiber 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, discolor, scorch or
emit dangerous fumes near 200 °C (392 °F),
such as vellum paper. These materials may
transfer onto the fusing roller and cause damage.
– Moist paper
– Inkjet paper
L 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.
L For proper paper feeding and best print quality, we
recommend using long-grained paper.
L Do not use paper of different types or thicknesses at
the same time. This may cause paper jams.
L Avoid double-sided printing.
L Do not use paper printed from this unit for double-
sided printing with other copiers or printers. This may
cause paper jams.
L 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.
L 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-FLM671
only)
You can print documents, scan documents, receive
faxes or send faxes 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:
L 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, connect the power cord.
L 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 23 for details.
Note:
L 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 unnecessary trouble.
22
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.

Press {<} or {>} to move the cursor to the incorrect
number, and make the correction.
2.10.3 Setting the computer for PC fax
reception
You need to select the computer that will be used for
receiving faxes.
L Make sure PC fax setting is set to “ALWAYS” or
“CONNECTED” beforehand (feature #442 on page
55).

3.1.1 Printing on special media
You can print not only on plain paper but also on special
media (transparencies / labels / envelopes).
L Please refer to page 81 for information on recording
paper.
To print on transparencies
Use transparencies designed for laser printing.
We recommend the following:
®
3M
CG3300/CG5000
L Load transparency sheets one page at a time for
printing, print-side down.
L Remove each transparency after printing and
place it on a flat surface to cool and to prevent it
from curling.
L Do not re-use transparencies that have already been
fed through the unit. This includes transparencies
that have been fed through and ejected without being
printed on.
L Some types of transparencies have instructions
recommending which side to print on. If the print
quality is poor, try printing on the other side of a new
transparency.
To print on labels
Use labels designed for laser printing. We recommend
the following:
®
Avery
5160/5161/5162/5163/5164/5165/5167/5168
XEROX
LWH100/LWH110/LWH120/LWH130/LWH140
To print on envelopes
Use envelopes designed for laser printing. We
recommend the following:
– High quality envelopes of 90 g/m
– Envelopes that have thin, sharply creased leading
– Envelopes that have diagonal seams, and
®
L Load label sheets one page at a time for printing,
print-side down.
L Remove each label after printing.

L Remove each envelope after printing.
Note:
L Wrinkles and waving may occur in some cases, even
if high quality envelopes are used.
L Avoid printing in high humidity. High humidity may
cause the envelope to curl or seal the envelope.
L Store envelopes away from moisture and humidity,
where they can lay flat and their edges will not be
bent or damaged.
Do not use envelopes with any of the following
characteristics (using these may result in paper
jams):
L Irregularly shaped envelopes
L Envelopes with curls, wrinkles, nicks, twists, dog-
ears or other damage
