Important Precautions and Safety Information

When using this machine, these basic safety precautions should always be followed to
reduce risk of fire, electric shock and injury to people:

1 Read and understand all instructions.

2 Use common sense whenever operating electrical appliances.

3 Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the machine and in the literature

accompanying the machine.

4 If an operating instruction appears to conflict with safety information, heed the

safety information. You may have misunderstood the operating instruction. If you
cannot resolve the conflict, contact your sales or service representative for
assistance.

5 Unplug the machine from the AC wall socket and/or telephone jack before

cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use only a damp cloth for
cleaning.

6 Do not place the machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. It may fall, causing

serious damage.

7 Your machine should never be placed on, near or over a radiator, heater, air

conditioner or ventilation duct.

8 Do not allow anything to rest on the power. Do not locate your machine where the

cords will be abused by persons walking on them.

9 Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords. This can diminish performance,

and may result in the risk of fire or electric shock.

10 Do not allow pets to chew on the AC power, telephone or PC interface cords.

17 The Power cord supplied with your machine should be used for safe operation. If

you are using a cord which is longer than 2 m with 110 V machine, then it should

Laser Safety Statement

The printer is certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS 21 CFR,
chapter 1 Subchapter J for Class I(1) laser products, and elsewhere is certified as a
Class I laser product conforming to the requirements of IEC 825.

Class I laser products are not considered to be hazardous. The laser system and printer
are designed so there is never any human access to laser radiation above a Class I level
during normal operation, user maintenance or prescribed service condition.

WARNING

Never operate or service the printer with the protective cover removed from Laser/
Scanner assembly. The reflected beam, although invisible, can damage your eyes.

When using this product, these basic safety precautions should always be followed to
reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons:

11 Never push objects of any kind into the machine through case or cabinet

openings. They may touch dangerous voltage points, creating a risk of fire or
shock. Never spill liquid of any kind onto or into the machine.

12 Your machine may have a heavy cover for optimal pressure on the document for

the best scanning and/or faxing (usually the flatbed-type machine). In this case,
replace the cover after placing document on the scan glass, by holding and
moving it down slowly until it seats on its location.

13 To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the machine. Take it to a

qualified service technician when repair work is required. Opening or removing
covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect reassembly
could cause electric shock when the unit is subsequently used.

14 Unplug the machine from the telephone jack, PC and AC wall outlet and refer

servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

• When any part of the power cord, plug or connecting cable is damaged or frayed.

• If liquid has been spilled into the machine.

• If the machine has been exposed to rain or water.

• If the machine does not operate properly after instructions have been followed.

• If the machine has been dropped, or the cabinet appears damaged.

• If the machine exhibits a sudden and distinct change in performance.

15 Adjust only those controls covered by the operating instructions. Improper

adjustment of other controls may result in damage, and may require extensive
work by a qualified service technician to restore the machine to normal operation.

16 Avoid using this machine during a lightning storm. There may be a remote risk of

electric shock from lightning. If possible, unplug the AC power and telephone cord
for the duration of the lightning storm.

• This device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or

Fax Branding

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any person to
use a computer or other electronic device to send any message via a telephone
facsimile machine unless such message clearly contains in a margin at the top or bottom
of each transmitted page or on the first page of the transmission the following
information:

(1) the date and time of transmission

(2) identification of either business, business entity or individual sending the message;
and

(3) telephone number of either the sending machine, business, business entity or
individual.

The Telephone Company may make changes in its communications facilities,
equipment operations or procedures where such action is reasonably required in the
operation of its business and is not inconsistent with the rules and regulations in FCC
Part 68. If such changes can be reasonably expected to render any customer terminal
equipment incompatible with telephone company communications facilities, or require
modification or alteration of such terminal equipment, or otherwise materially affect its
use or performance, the customer shall be given adequate notice in writing, to allow the
customer an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.

Ringer Equivalence Number

The Ringer Equivalence Number and FCC Registration Number for this machine may
be found on the label located on the bottom or rear of the machine. In some instances
you may need to provide these numbers to the telephone company.

The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is a measure of the electrical load placed on the
telephone line, and is useful for determining whether you have “overloaded” the line.
Installing several types of equipment on the same telephone line may result in problems
making and receiving telephone calls, especially ringing when your line is called. The
sum of all Ringer Equivalence Numbers of the equipment on your telephone line should
be less than five in order to assure proper service from the telephone company. In some
cases, a sum of five may not be usable on your line. If any of your telephone equipment
is not operating properly, you should immediately remove it from your telephone line, as
it may cause harm to the telephone network.

ii

WARNING:

FCC Regulations state that changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly
approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
In the event that terminal equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the
telephone company should notify the customer that service may be stopped. However,
where prior notice is impractical, the company may temporarily cease service, providing
that they:

a) promptly notify the customer.

b) give the customer an opportunity to correct the equipment problem.

c) inform the customer of the right to bring a complaint to the Federal Communication
Commission pursuant to procedures set out in FCC Rules and Regulations Subpart E
of Part 68.

You should also know that:

• Your machine is not designed to be connected to a digital PBX system.

Introduction

Once you have connected your machine to a network with an RJ-45
Ethernet cable, you can share the machine with other network users.

You need to set up the network protocols on the machine to use it as your
network printer. Protocols can be set up by the following two methods:

Via network administration programs

You can configure your machine’s print server settings and manage the
machine via the following programs that came with your machine:

• SyncThru™ Web Admin Service: A web-based printer management
solution for network administrators. SyncThru™ Web Admin Service
provides you with an efficient way of managing network devices and
lets you remotely monitor and troubleshoot network printers from any
site with corporate intranet access.

• SyncThru™ Web Service: A web server embedded to your network
print server, which allows you to:

- Configure the network parameters necessary for the machine to

connect to various network environments.

- Customize e-mail settings and set up Address Book for scanning

to email.

- Customize server settings and set up Address Book for scanning

to an FTP or SMB servers.

- Customize printer, copy, and fax settings.

• SetIP: A utility program allowing you to select a network interface and
manually configure the addresses for use with the TCP/IP protocol.

For further details, refer to the user’s guide on the network utilities CD that
came with your machine.

Your machine can be set up with a variety of TCP/IP network information,
such as an IP address, a subnet mask, a gateway, and DNS addresses.
There are several ways in which your machine can be assigned a TCP/
IP address, depending on your network.

• Static addressing: A TCP/IP address is assigned manually by the
system administrator.

• Dynamic addressing via BOOTP/DHCP (default): A TCP/IP address is
assigned automatically by the server.

Note

Before configuring TCP/IP, you need to set the network protocol
to TCP/IP.

5 Loading originals and print

media

This chapter introduces you to how to load originals and print media into
your machine.

This chapter includes:

• Loading originals

• Selecting print media

• Loading paper

• Setting the paper size and type

• Selecting an output location

Loading originals

You can use the scanner glass or ADF to load an original for copying,
scanning, and sending a fax.

On the scanner glass

Make sure that no originals are in the ADF. If an original is detected in the
ADF, the machine gives it priority over the original on the scanner glass.
To get the best scan quality, especially for colored or gray-scaled images,
use the scanner glass.

1 Lift and open the scanner lid.

2 Place the original face down on the scanner glass and align it with

the registration guide at the top left corner of the glass.

3 Close the scanner lid.

Notes

• Leaving the scanner lid open while copying may affect copy
quality and toner consumption.

• Dust on the scanner glass may cause black spots on the
printout. Always keep it clean.

• If you are copying a page from a book or magazine, lift the
scanner lid until its hinges are caught by the stopper and then
close the lid. If the book or magazine is thicker than 30 mm,
start copying with the lid open.

In the ADF

Using the ADF, you can load up to 50 sheets of paper (75 g/m2) for one
job.

When you use the ADF:

• Do not load paper smaller than 142 x 148 mm or larger than
216 x 356 mm.

• Do not attempt to load the following types of paper:

- carbon-paper or carbon-backed paper

- coated paper

- onion skin or thin paper

- wrinkled or creased paper

- curled or rolled paper

- torn paper

• Remove all staples and paper clips before loading.

• Make sure any glue, ink, or correction fluid on the paper is completely
dry before loading.

• Do not load originals that include different sizes or weights of paper.

• Do not load booklets, pamphlets, transparencies, or documents
having other unusual characteristics.

5.1 <

Loading originals and print media>

To load an original into the ADF:

1 Load the original face up into the ADF. Make sure that the bottom of

the original stack matches the paper size marked on the document
input tray.

2 Adjust the document width guides to the paper size.

Selecting print media

You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper, envelopes,
labels, and transparencies. Always use print media that meet the
guidelines for use with your machine. Print media that does not meet the
guidelines outlined in this user’s guide may cause the following problems:

• Poor print quality

• Increased paper jams

• Premature wear on the machine.

Properties, such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture content, are
important factors that affect the machine’s performance and the output
quality. When you choose print materials, consider the following:

• Desired outcome: The print media you choose should be appropriate
for your project.

• Size: You can use any size media that fits easily within the paper
adjusters of the paper tray.

• Weight: Your machine supports print media weights as follows:

- 60 to 90 g/m

- 60 to 163 g/m2 bond for the multi-purpose tray

- 75 to 90 g/m

• Brightness: Some print media are whiter than others and produce
sharper, more vibrant images.

• Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the print media affects how
crisp the printing looks on the paper.

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 5.3.

• 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 15 °C and 30 °C.
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 multi­purpose tray to avoid paper jams.

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

Media type Guidelines

Envelopes • 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

2

or jamming may

occur.

- Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes
should lie flat with less than 6 mm 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
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 machine’s
fusing temperature of 180 °C for 0,1 second.
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 from the edges of the
envelope.

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