Getting Started

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

1394 (SCSI print) cable

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

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	1

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.
