If you cut off the moulded plug, get rid of it straight away.

You cannot rewire the plug and you may receive an electric shock if you plug it into a socket.

Important warning:

The wires in the mains lead have the following color code:

• Green and Yellow: Earth

• Blue: Neutral

• Brown: Live

If the wires in the mains lead do not match the colors marked in your plug, do the following:

You must connect the green and yellow wire to the pin marked by the letter “E” or by the safety ‘Earth symbol’ or colored green and yellow or green.

You must connect the blue wire to the pin which is marked with the letter “N” or colored black.

You must connect the brown wire to the pin which is marked with the letter “L” or colored red.

You must have a 13 amp fuse in the plug, adaptor, or at the distribution board.

Guidelines for selecting and storing print media

When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other print materials, keep these guidelines in mind:

• Always use print media that conform with the specifications listed on page 5.5.

• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause paper jams and poor print quality.

• For the best print quality, use only high quality copier grade paper specifically recommended for use in laser printers.

• Avoid using the following media types:

- Paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or a texture that is too

smooth or too rough

- Erasable bond paper

- Multi-paged paper

- Synthetic paper and thermally reactive paper

- Carbonless paper and Tracing paper.

Use of these types of paper could result in paper jams, chemical smells, and damage to your machine.

• Store print media in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use it. Place cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor. Do not place heavy objects on top of the paper, whether it is packaged or unpackaged. Keep it away from moisture or other conditions that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.

• Store unused print media at temperatures between 15o C and 30o C (59 F to 86o F). The relative humidity should be between 10% and 70%.

• Store unused print media in a moisture-proof wrap, such as a plastic container or bag, to prevent dust and moisture from contaminating your paper.

• Load special media types one sheet at a time through the manual feeder to avoid paper jams.

To prevent print media, such as transparencies and label sheets, from sticking together, remove them as they print out.

Guidelines for special print media

Media type Guidelines

• Successful printing on envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes. When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors:

- Weight: The weight of the envelope paper

should not exceed 90 g/m may occur.

- Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes

should lie flat with less than 6 mm (0.25 inches) curl, and should not contain air.

- Condition: Envelopes should not be wrinkled,

nicked, or otherwise damaged.

- Temperature: You should use envelopes that

are compatible with the heat and pressure of the machine during operation.

• Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp and well creased folds.

• Do not use stamped envelopes.

• Do not use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated lining, self-adhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.

• Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes.

• Be sure the seam at both ends of the envelope

Envelopes

extends all the way to the corner of the envelope.

Acceptable

Unacceptable

• Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with the printer’s fusing temperature for 0.1 second. Check your machine’s specification to view the fusing temperature, see page 13.1. The extra flaps and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams, and may even damage the fuser.

• For the best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm (0.6 inches) from the edges of the envelope.

• Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.

(24 lb) or jamming

5.3 <

Selecting and loading print media>

Media type Guidelines

• To avoid damaging the machine, use only transparencies designed for use in laser printers.

• Transparencies used in the printer must be able to withstand the machine’s fusing temperature. Check your machine’s specification to view the fusing temperature, see page 13.1.

• Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the machine.

• Do not leave them in the paper tray for long periods of time. Dust and dirt may accumulate on them, resulting in spotty printing.

Transparencies

• To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them carefully.

• To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to prolonged sunlight.

• Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled, curled, or have any torn edges.

Caution

Recommended media: Transparency for a Color Laser Printers produced by HP, Xerox and 3M. It is not recommended to use paperbacked transparencies such as Xerox 3R91334, which can cause a jam or be scratched.

Media type Guidelines

• To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for use in laser printers.

• When selecting labels, consider the following factors:

- Adhesives: The adhesive material should be

stable at your machine’s fusing temperature. Check your machine’s specification to view the fusing temperature, see page 13.1.

- Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed

backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.

- Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no

Labels

more than 13 mm (5 inches) of curl in any direction.

- Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles,

bubbles, or other indications of separation.

• Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between labels. Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause damage to machine components.

• Do not run a sheet of labels through the machine more than once. The adhesive backing is designed for only a single pass through the machine.

• Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.

Card stock or custom-sized materials

Preprinted paper

• Do not print on media smaller than 76 mm (3.00 inches) wide or 127 mm (5.00 inches) long.

• In the software application, set margins at least

6.4 mm (0.25 inches) away from the edges of the material.

• Letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when subjected to the printer’s fusing temperature for 0.1 second. Check your machine’s specification to view the fusing temperature, see page 13.1.

• Letterhead ink must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect printer rollers.

• Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a moisture-proof wrapping to prevent changes during storage.

• Before you load preprinted paper, such as forms and letterhead, verify that the ink on the paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper, reducing print quality.

Maintenance>

Cleaning your machine

To maintain print and scan quality, follow the cleaning procedures below each time the toner cartridge is replaced or if print and scan quality problems occur.

Caution

• Cleaning the cabinet of the machine with cleaning materials containing large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or other strong substances can discolor or distort the cabinet.

• If your machine or its around is contaminated with toner, we recommend you to use cloth or tissue dampened with water to clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner blows in the air and might be harmful for you.

Cleaning the outside

Clean the cabinet of the machine with a soft lint-free cloth. You can dampen the cloth slightly with water, but be careful not to let any water drip onto or into the machine.

Cleaning the inside

During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate inside the machine. This buildup can cause print quality problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the inside of the machine clears or reduces these problems.

1 Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the

machine to cool down.

3 Extend the top handle on the imaging unit and then use it to pull the

imaging unit out of the machine completely.

Caution

• To prevent damage to the imaging unit, do not expose it to light for more than a few minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper, if necessary.

• Do not touch the green surface on the imaging unit with your hands or any other material. Use the handle on it to avoid touching this area.

• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the imaging unit.

4 With a dry lint-free cloth, wipe away any dust and spilled toner.

2 Open the front cover and pull the imaging unit out of the machine

using the handle on its bottom.

10.2 <

Note

After cleaning, let the printer to dry completely.

Maintenance>

5 Pull the imaging unit about half and push it until it sounds ‘click’.

Repeat this action two or three times.

6 Push the imaging unit until it sounds ‘click’ in to the machine.

Cleaning the scan unit

Keeping the scan unit clean helps ensure the best possible copies. We suggest that you clean the scan unit at the start of each day and during the day, as needed.

1 Slightly dampen a soft lint-free cloth or paper towel with water.

2 Open the scanner lid.

3 Wipe the surface of the scanner glass until it is clean and dry.

Maintenance>

Maintaining the toner cartridge

Toner cartridge storage

To get the most from the toner cartridge, keep the following guidelines in mind:

• Do not remove the toner cartridge from its package until ready for use.

• Do not refill the toner cartridge. The machine warranty does not cover damage caused by using a refilled cartridge.

• Store toner cartridges in the same environment as your machine.

• To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than a few minutes.

2 Pull the corresponding toner cartridge out.

Expected cartridge life

The life of the toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner that print jobs require. The actual number may also be different depending on the print density of the pages you print on, and the number of pages may be affected by operating environment, printing interval, media type, and media size. If you print a lot of graphics, you may need to change the cartridge more often.

Redistributing toner

When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life:

• White streaks or light printing occurs.

• The toner related message telling that the toner is low.

• SmartPanel program window appears on the computer telling you which color cartridge is low on toner.

•The Status LED blinks red.

If this happens, you can temporarily reestablish print quality by redistributing the remaining toner in the cartridge. In some cases, white streaks or light printing will still occur even after you have redistributed the toner.

1 Open the front cover.

3 Holding the toner cartridge, thoroughly roll it 5 or 6 times to

distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge.

Note

If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.

4 Grasp the toner cartridge and align it with the corresponding slot

inside the machine. Insert it back into its slot until it clicks into place.

10.4 <

5 Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely closed.

Maintenance>

Replacing the toner cartridge

The machine uses four colors and has a different toner cartridge for each one: yellow (Y), magenta (M), cyan (C), and black (K).

When the toner cartridge is completely empty:

•The Status LED and the toner-related message on the display indicate when each individual toner cartridge should be replaced.

• The machine stops printing.

At this stage, the toner cartridge needs to be replaced. For order information for toner cartridges, see page 12.1.

1 Turn the machine off, then wait a few minutes for the machine to

cool.

2 Open the front cover.

3 Pull the corresponding toner cartridge out.

Note

If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.

7 Grasp the toner cartridge and align it with the corresponding slot

inside the machine. Insert it into its slot until it clicks into place.

8 Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely latched

and then turn the machine on.

Incompatibility between the PDF file and the Acrobat products

Disconnect the printer cable and reconnect. Try a print job that you have already printed successfully. If possible, attach the cable and the machine to another computer and try a print job that you know works. Finally, try a new printer cable.

Check the application’s printer selection menu to ensure that your machine is selected.

Try printing a job from another application.

Exit Windows and reboot the computer. Turn the machine off and then back on again.

Redistribute the toner, if necessary. See page 10.4.

If necessary, replace the toner cartridge.

Check the file to ensure that it does not contain blank pages.

Contact a service representative.

Printing the PDF file as an image may solve this problem. Turn on Print As Image from the Acrobat printing options.

Note: It will take longer to

print when you print a PDF file as an image.

Printing quality problems

If the inside of the machine is dirty or paper has been loaded improperly, you may notice a reduction in print quality. See the table below to clear the problem.

Condition Suggested solutions

Light or faded print

Toner specks

AaBbCc AaBbCc AaBbCc AaBbCc

If a vertical white streak or faded area appears on the page:

• The toner supply is low. You may be able to temporarily extend the toner cartridge life. See page 10.4. If this does not improve the print quality, install a new toner cartridge.

• The paper may not meet paper specifications; for example, the paper is too moist or too rough. See page 5.1.

• If the entire page is light, the print resolution setting is too low. Adjust the print resolution. See the help screen of the printer driver.

• A combination of faded or smeared defects may indicate that the toner cartridge needs cleaning.

• The surface of the LSU part inside the machine may be dirty. Clean the LSU. See page 10.2.

• The paper may not meet specifications; for example, the paper is too moist or too rough. See page 5.1.

• The transfer roller may be dirty. Clean the inside of your machine. See page 10.2.

• The paper path may need cleaning. See page 10.2.

AaBbCc

Dropouts

AaBbCc AaBbCc

AaBbCc AaBbCc AaBbCc

If faded areas, generally rounded, occur randomly on the page:

• A single sheet of paper may be defective. Try reprinting the job.

• The moisture content of the paper is uneven or the paper has moist spots on its surface. Try a different brand of paper. See page 5.1.

• The paper lot is bad. The manufacturing processes can cause some areas to reject toner. Try a different kind or brand of paper.

• Change the printer option and try again. Go to printer properties, click Paper tab, and set type to Thick. Refer to the Software Section for details.

• If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.

Condition Suggested solutions

White Spots White spots appears on the page:

• The paper is too rough and a lot of dirt from a paper falls to the inner devices within the machine, so the transfer roller may be dirty. Clean the inside of your machine. See page

10.2. Contact a service representative.

• The paper path may need cleaning. Contact a service representative.

Vertical lines

Color or Black background

Toner smear

If black vertical streaks appear on the page:

• The drum inside the toner cartridge has probably been scratched. Remove the toner cartridge and install a new one. See page

10.5.

If white vertical streaks appear on the page:

• The surface of the LSU part inside the machine may be dirty. Clean the LSU. See page 10.2.

If the amount of background shading becomes unacceptable:

• Change to a lighter weight paper. See page

5.1.

• Check the machine’s environment: very dry (low humidity) or high humidity (higher than 80% RH) conditions can increase the amount of background shading.

• Remove the old toner cartridge and install a new one. See page 10.5.

• Clean the inside of the machine. See page

10.2.

• Check the paper type and quality. See page

5.1.

• Remove the toner cartridge and install a new one. See page 10.5.

Vertical repetitive defects

AaBbC AaBbC AaBbC AaBbC AaBbC

Background scatter

Misformed characters

If marks repeatedly appear on the printed side of the page at even intervals:

• The toner cartridge may be damaged. If a repetitive mark occurs on the page, print a cleaning sheet several times to clean the cartridge; see page 10.4. After the printout, if you still have the same problems, remove the toner cartridge and install a new one. See page 10.5.

• Parts of the machine may have toner on them. If the defects occur on the back of the page, the problem will likely correct itself after a few more pages.

• The fusing assembly may be damaged. Contact a service representative.

Background scatter results from bits of toner randomly distributed on the printed page.

• The paper may be too damp. Try printing with a different batch of paper. Do not open packages of paper until necessary so that the paper does not absorb too much moisture.

• If background scatter occurs on an envelope, change the printing layout to avoid printing over areas that have overlapping seams on the reverse side. Printing on seams can cause problems.

• If background scatter covers the entire surface area of a printed page, adjust the print resolution through your software application or the printer properties.

• If characters are improperly formed and producing hollow images, the paper stock may be too slick. Try a different paper. See page 5.1.

• If characters are improperly formed and producing a wavy effect, the scanner unit may need service. For service, contact a service representative.

Page skew

AaBbCc

• Ensure that the paper is loaded properly.

• Check the paper type and quality. See page

Copying problems

Scanning problems

Condition Suggested solutions

Copies are too light or too dark.

Smears, lines, marks, or spots appears on copies.

Copy image is skewed.

Blank copies print out.

Image rubs off the copy easily.

Frequent copy paper jams occur.

Toner cartridge produces fewer copies than expected before running out of toner.

Use Darkness to darken or lighten the background of the copies.

• If defects are on the original, use Darkness to lighten the background of your copies.

• If no defects are on the original, clean the scan unit. See page 10.3.

• Ensure that the original is face down on the scanner glass.

• Check that the copy paper is loaded correctly.

Ensure that the original is face down on the scanner glass.

• Replace the paper in the tray with paper from a new package.

• In high humidity areas, do not leave paper in the machine for extended periods of time.

• Fan the stack of paper, then turn it over in the tray. Replace the paper in the tray with a fresh supply. Check/adjust the paper guides, if necessary.

• Ensure that the paper is the proper paper weight. 75 g/m2 (20 lb bond) paper is recommended.

• Check for copy paper or pieces of copy paper remaining in the machine after a paper jam has been cleared.

• Your originals may contain pictures, solids, or heavy lines. For example, your originals may be forms, newsletters, books, or other documents that use more toner.

• The machine may be turned on and off frequently.

• The scanner lid may be left open while copies are being made.

Condition Suggested solutions

The scanner does not work.

The unit scans very slowly.

Message appears on your computer screen:

• “Device can't be set to the H/W mode you want.”

• “Port is being used by another program.”

•“Port is Disabled.

• “Scanner is busy receiving or printing data. When the current job is completed, try again.”

• “Invalid handle.”

• “Scanning has failed.”

• Make sure that you place the original to be scanned face down on the scanner glass.

• There may not be enough available memory to hold the document you want to scan. Try the prescan function to see if that works. Try lowering the scan resolution rate.

• Check that the USB cable is connected properly.

• Make sure that the USB cable is not defective. Switch the cable with a known good cable. If necessary, replace the cable.

• Check that the scanner is configured correctly. Check scan setting in the SmarThru Configuration or the application you want to use to make certain that the scanner job is being sent to the correct port.

• Check if the machine is printing received data. If so, scan the document after the received data has been printed.

• Graphics are scanned more slowly than text.

• Communication speed slows in scan mode because of the large amount of memory required to analyze and reproduce the scanned image. Set your computer to the ECP printer mode through BIOS setting. It will help to increase the speed. For details about how to set BIOS, refer to your computer user’s guide.

Troubleshooting>

Common Linux problems

Problem Possible cause and solutions

The machine does not print.

• Check if the printer driver is installed in your system. Open Unified Driver configurator and switch to the Printers tab in Printers configuration window to look at the list of available printers. Make sure that your machine is displayed on the list. If not, please, invoke Add new printer wizard to set up your device.

• Check if the printer has started. Open Printers configuration and select your machine on the printers list. Look at the description in the Selected printer pane. If its status contains “(stopped)” string, please, press the Start button. After that normal operation of the printer should be restored. The “stopped” status might be activated when some problems in printing occurred. For instance, this could be an attempt to print a document when a port is claimed by a scanning application.

• Check if your application has special print option such as “-oraw”. If “-oraw” is specified in the command line parameter then remove it to print properly. For Gimp front-end, select “print” -> “Setup printer” and edit command line parameter in the command item.

Some color images come out all black.

The machine does not print whole pages and its output is half page printed.

Some color images come out in unexpected color.

This is a known bug in Ghostscript (until GNU Ghostscript version 7.05) when the base color space of the document is indexed color space and it is converted through CIE color space. Because Postscript uses CIE color space for Color Matching System, you should upgrade Ghostscript on your system to at least GNU Ghostscript version 7.06 or later. You can find recent Ghostscript versions at www.ghostscript.com.

It is a known problem that occurs when a color printer is used on version 8.51 or earlier of Ghostscript, 64-bit Linux OS, and reported to bugs.ghostscript.com as Ghostscript Bug 688252.

The problem is solved in AFPL Ghostscript v. 8.52 or above. Download the latest version of AFPL Ghostscript from http:// sourceforge.net/projects/ghostscript/ and install it to solve this problem.

This is a known bug in Ghostscript (until GNU Ghostscript version 7.xx) when the base color space of the document is indexed RGB color space and it is converted through CIE color space.

Troubleshooting>

Problem Possible cause and solutions

The machine does not appear on the scanners list.

• Check if your machine is attached to your computer. Make sure that it is connected properly via the USB port and is turned on.

• Check if the scanner driver for your machine is installed in your system. Open Unified Driver configurator, switch to Scanners configuration, then press Drivers. Make sure that driver with a name corresponding to your machine's name is listed in the window. Check if the port is not busy. Since functional components of MFP (printer and scanner) share the same I/O interface (port), the situation of simultaneous access of different “consumer” application to the same port is possible. To avoid possible conflicts, only one of them at a time is allowed to gain control over the device. The other “consumer” will encounter “device busy” response. This can usually happen while starting scan procedure, and appropriate message box appears.

• To identify the source of the problem, you should open ports configuration and select the port assigned to your scanner. port's symbol /dev/mfp0 corresponds to LP:0 designation displayed in the scanners’ options, /dev/mfp1 relates to LP:1 and so on. USB ports start at /dev/ mfp4, so scanner on USB:0 relates to / dev/mfp4 respectively and so forth sequentially. In the Selected port pane you can see if the port is occupied by some other application. If this is the case, you should wait for completion of the current job or you should press Release port button, if you are sure that the present port's owner is not functioning properly.

The machine does not scan.

I cannot scan via Gimp Front-end.

• Check if a document is loaded into the machine.

• Check if your machine is connected to the computer. Make sure if it is connected properly if an I/O error is reported while scanning.

• Check if the port is not busy. Since functional components of MFP (printer and scanner) share the same I/O interface (port), the situation of simultaneous access of different “consumer” application to the same port is possible. To avoid possible conflicts, only one of them at a time is allowed to gain control over the device. The other “consumer” will encounter “device busy” response.

In the Selected port pane you can see if the port is occupied by some other application. If this is the case, you should wait for completion of the current job or should press the Release port button, if you are sure that the present port’s owner is not functioning properly.

• Check if Gimp Front-end has “Xsane: Device dialog.” on the “Acquire” menu. If not, you should install Xsane plug-in for Gimp on the your computer. You can find Xsane plug-in package for Gimp on Linux distribution CD or Gimp home page. For the detail information, refer to the Help for Linux distribution CD or Gimp Front-end application.

If you wish to use other kind of scan application, refer to the Help for application.

Troubleshooting>

Problem Possible cause and solutions

I encounter error “Cannot open port device file” when printing a document.

When printing a document over the network in SuSE 9.2, the machine does not print.

Please avoid changing the print job parameters (via LPR GUI, for example) while a print job is in progress. Known versions of CUPS server break the print job whenever print options are changed and then try to restart the job from the beginning. Since Unified Linux Driver locks port while printing, the abrupt termination of the driver keeps the port locked and therefore unavailable for subsequent print jobs. If this situation occurred, please, try to release the port.

The CUPS (Common Unix Printing System) version distributed with SuSE Linux 9.2 (cups-1.1.21) has a problem with ipp (Internet Printing Protocol) printing. Use the socket printing instead of ipp or install later version of CUPS (cups-1.1.22 or higher).

What is an Overlay?

An overlay is text and/or images stored in the computer hard disk driv e (H DD) as a s pecia l file form at th at ca n be p rint ed on any documen t. O v e r la y s ar e o fte n u sed to take the place o f preprinted forms and letterhead paper. Ra ther than using preprinted letterhead, you can create an overlay containing the exact same information that is currently on your letterhead. T o print a letter with your company’ s letterh ead, you do not need to load preprinted letterhead paper in the printer . You need only tell the printer to print the letterhead ov e r lay o n y o u r document .
