Connecting the Machine to the host using the parallel cable/IEEE

1394 (SCSI print) cable

1

Connect the machine to the host computer using the optional parallel board or optional IEEE 1394 interface board. This machine does not come with a parallel cable to connect the machine to the host computer.

The machine's parallel interface is a standard bidirectional interface. It requires a standard IEEE 1284 compliant 36-pin parallel cable and a parallel port on the host computer. Make sure you purchase the appropriate cable for the machine and your computer.

Note

Do not use a parallel cable that is longer than 3 meters (10 feet).

Rating voltage of the interface connector: Max. DC 5V

Follow the procedure below to connect the machine to the host computer using a parallel cable or IEEE 1394 interface cable.

Important

Before connecting the machine and a computer using an interface cable, make sure the machine is not operating, and then turn off the main power switches of the machine and computer.

Be sure to use a specified interface cable. Other cables may cause radio interference.

A Turn off the main power switches of the machine and computer.

Getting Started

Setting Paper on the Bypass Tray

This section gives instructions for set- 1 ting paper on the bypass tray. Use the bypass tray to print onto OHP transparencies, labels, thick paper, and envelopes that cannot be loaded in the

paper tray.

Reference

For details about setting paper in

the regular paper tray, see General

Settings Guide.

Note

When loading letterhead paper, pay attention to its orientation. See “Orientation-Fixed Paper or TwoSided Paper”, General Settings Guide.

Paper within the following dimensions can be set in the bypass tray:

Vertical: 90 - 305 mm (3.6 - 12 in.)

Horizontal: 148 - 600 mm (5.9 - 23.6 in.)

Be sure to set the paper with the side you want to print facing down in the bypass tray.

When loading OHP transparencies or thick paper in the bypass tray, make the paper setting using the control panel or printer driver.

The number of sheets that can be loaded in the bypass tray depends on the paper type.

Paper sizes fed from the bypass tray are output first sheet down, print side-up.

Limitation

The following functions are disabled when printing from the bypass tray:

Duplex printing

Auto Tray Select

Auto Tray Switching

Rotating Collate

Staple (when the optional unit is installed)

Punch (when the optional unit is installed)

Important

When printing using the printer function, original images are always rotated by 180 degrees (the orientation of images to be printed is opposite to that of the copier function). When printing onto paper with specific orientation requirements, such as envelopes and letterheads, make sure to rotate the paper feed orientation to 180 degrees.

Be sure to set the paper size using the printer driver when printing data from the computer. The paper size set using the printer driver has priority over the one set using the display panel.

A Open the bypass tray.

AEU004S

14

Setting Paper on the Bypass Tray

B Adjust the paper guides to the paper size.

Important

If the paper guides are not flush against the paper, skewing and misfeeds might occur.

C Gently insert paper face up into the bypass tray until the beeper sounds.

AEU011S

1.Extender

2.Paper guides

Note

The beeper will not sound if it is turned off. Gently insert paper until it stops.

Do not stack paper over the limit mark, otherwise a skewed image or misfeeds might occur.

Open out the extender to support

paper sizes larger than A4 L, 81/2"×11" L.

Fan the paper to get air between the sheets to avoid a multi-sheet feed.

When setting an OHP transparency, make sure that its front and back sides are properly positioned.

Select paper type when printing onto OHP transparencies or thick paper (over 127.9 g/m2). For details, see p.17 “Setting thick paper or OHP transparencies”.

D Select the paper size.

Note

 

You can set paper size using the

1

printer driver. The following

procedures are not necessary when setting paper size using the printer driver.

The paper size set using the printer driver has priority over that set using the display panel.

When the printer driver is not used, make settings using the display panel.

Thick paper and OHP transparencies are delivered face up on the top of the preceding page; therefore, the prints need to be rearranged into the correct order. To avoid this, select [Reverse order print] in the RPCS printer driver settings to deliver the prints in the correct page order.

Reference

For printer driver settings, see the printer driver Help.

For details about setting custom sizes, see p.16 “Setting custom size paper”.

GPress [OK].

HPress the {User Tools/Counter} key.

Setting custom size paper

Note

Custom sizes can also be set using the printer driver. The following procedures are not necessary when setting custom sizes using the printer driver.

Custom size settings set using the printer driver have priority over those set using the machine's display panel.

When the printer driver is not used, make settings using the display panel.

2. Preparing the Machine

Quick Install

Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP, Windows Server 2003, and Windows NT 4.0 users can easily install this software using the CD-ROM provided.

Using Quick Install, the PCL printer driver and/or RPCS printer driver and SmartDeviceMonitor for Client is installed under network environment, and TCP/IP port will be set.

Important

To install printer driver under Windows 2000/XP Professional, Windows Server 2003, and Windows NT 4.0, you must have an account that has Manage Printers permission. Log on as an Administrator.

The Quick Install is not available when using this printer under USB connection. If you connect using USB, refer to p.43 “Installing the Printer Driver Using USB”.

A Quit all applications currently running.

B Insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.

The installer starts.

Auto Run may not work with certain operating system settings. If this happens, launch “Setup.exe” on the CD-ROM root directory.

C Select an interface language, and then click [OK].

The default interface language is English.

D Click [Quick Install].

The software license agreement appears in the [License Agreement] dialog box.

E After reading the agreement, click [I accept the agreement] , and then click

[Next >].

F Select the machine model you want to use in the [Select Printer] dialog box.

For network connection via TCP/IP, select the machine whose IP address is displayed in [Connect To].

For parallel connection, select the machine whose printer port is displayed in

[Connect To].

G Click [Install].

The printer driver installation starts.

19

Preparing the Machine

H Click [Finish]

A message about restarting the computer may appear. Restart the computer to complete installation.

I Click [Exit] in the first dialog box of the installer, and then take out the CDROM.

Note

To stop installation of the selected software, click [Cancel] before installa-

 

 

tion is complete.

Auto Run may not work with certain operating system settings. If this happens, launch “Setup.exe” on the CD-ROM root directory.

Select a machine to whose IP address is displayed in [Connect To] to install SmartDeviceMonitor for Client when using TCP/IP.

Reference

Quick Install is not available unless bidirectional communication between the machine and computer is enabled via parallel connection. See p.60 “If Bidirectional Communication is Disabled” for details about bidirectional communication between machine and computer.
