This symbol alerts you to procedures that should be performed. Make sure you
perform the procedure after reading the instructions carefully.

Installing and Relocating Your Printer

Do not place the printer in a hot, humid, dusty, or poorly ventilated environment.
Prolonged exposure to these adverse conditions can cause fire or electric shocks.

Do not place the printer near heaters or near volatile, flammable, or combustible
materials, such as curtains, that may catch fire.

Place the printer on a level and sturdy surface that can withstand a heavy weight.
If tilted, the printer may fall and cause injuries.

xv

The printer weighs 34.9 kg (77 lbs) fully assembled, therefore make sure that at
least two people carry it.

To lift the printer, face the front and back of the printer and, with both hands, grip
the recessed areas at the bottom left and right. Never try to lift the printer by grip­ping any other areas. Lifting the printer by gripping other areas can cause the
printer to fall, resulting in injury.

Recess

If you hold the printer by the front door,

left or right sides, there is a danger of

the printer falling.

When lifting the printer, get a firm footing and bend your knees to avoid possible
injuries to your back.

The machine has ventilation holes on the left, right, and rear sides. Ensure that the
machine is installed with a minimum clearance of 150 mm from the right side, 100
mm from the left side, and 200 mm from the rear side. A poorly ventilated machine
can cause excessive internal heat and fire. The accompanying diagram shows the
minimum clearances required for normal operation, consumables replacement,
and maintenance to ensure your machine operates at peak performance.

When moving the printer, be sure to unplug the power cord from the outlet. If the
printer is moved with the power cord connected, it can cause damage to the cord,
which could result in fire or electric shocks.

xvi

When moving the printer, do not tilt it more than 10 degrees. If tilted excessively,
the printer may fall over and cause injuries.

After installing the tray module, lock down the brakes on the casters at the front of
the tray module. Failure to lock down the brakes can cause the printer to move
unexpectedly, resulting in injury.

Other Precautions

■ Operate the printer in a location that meets the following conditions:

Ambient temperature range of 10 to 32°C, relative humidity of 15 to 85% (no con­densation)
If operating the printer with an ambient temperature of 32°C, the relative humidity
should not exceed 65%. If the relativ e humidity reaches 85%, the ambient temper­ature should not exceed 28°C.

Do not place the printer in a room where there are sudden fluctuations in tempera­ture, and do not move the printer from a cold place to a warm humid place. If you do,
condensation may occur within the printer and print quality deteriorate.

■ Do not place the printer in direct sunlight, as this may damage the printer.

■ When installing the printer, do not place it on an uneven surface where it could be

tilt more than 5 degrees in any direction in order to prevent trays or consumables
from falling out.

■ Do not place the printer directly next to an air conditioner or heater, as this affects

the temperature inside the printer and can cause damage.

xvii

Precautions for P ower and Earth Connections

Three power specifications are listed below. The specifications that apply to your
printer depend on its configuration. Connect the power plug only to a properly
rated power outlet. Otherwise, it can cause fire or electric shocks. If in doubt, con­tact your dealer.

• Rated voltage: 100 V
Rated frequency: 50/60 Hz

• Rated voltage: 110-127 V
Rated frequency: 60 Hz

• Rated voltage: 220-240 V
Rated frequency: 50/60 Hz

Ensure that the plug connection is clean. In a damp environment, a contaminated
connector can draw a sufficient amount of current that can generate heat and
eventually cause fire over an extended period of time.

Always use the power cord provided with your printer. When an extension power
cord is required, always use a properly rated cord.

Do not attempt to modify, pull, bend, chafe, or otherwise damage the power cord.
Do not place a heavy object on the cord. A damaged cord can cause fire or electric
shocks.

Never touch a power cord with wet hands. This constitutes an electric shock haz­ard.

Stop operation immediately if your printer emits smoke, excessive heat, unusual
noise or smell, or if water is spilt onto the printer. These conditions can cause fire.
Immediately turn off and unplug the printer, and contact your dealer.

xviii

To prevent fire or electric shocks, follow the instructions below based on your
printer's configuration. If in doubt, contact your dealer.
If your machine is a 220-240 V model, there is no need to attach a separate earth
line since the earth connection is incorporated in the power line. Plug it into a prop­erly rated outlet.

If the power cord is broken or insulated wires are exposed, ask your dealer for a
replacement. Using a damaged cord can cause fire or electric shocks.

Do not unplug or replug the printer while it is on. Unplugging a live connector can
deform the plug and cause fire.

When unplugging the printer, grasp the plug instead of the cord. Forcibly pulling on
a cord can damage it and cause fire or electric shocks.

Be sure to switch off and unplug the printer before accessing the interior of the
printer for cleaning, maintenance, or fault clearance. Access to a live printer's inte­rior can cause electric shocks.

Once a month, unplug the printer and check the power cord f o r the following:

• The power cord is plugged firmly into a receptacle.

• The plug is not excessively heated, rusted, or bent.

• The plug and receptacle are free of dust.

• The cord is not cracked or frayed.
If you notice any unusual conditions, contact your dealer.

When the printer is not used over an extended period of time, switch it off and
unplug it. If an unused printer is left connected to a power source for a long period,
degraded insulation can cause electric shocks, current leakages, or fire.

Switch off the printer before connecting the interface cable or options. Connecting
the cable or card with a live printer can cause electric shocks.

Other Precautions

■ This printer may interfere with radio or television reception, causing flickering or

distortion. This can be determined by turning the printer off and on. To correct
interference, perform one, or a combination of the following procedures:

xix

• Move the printer away from TV and/or radio.

• Reposition the printer, TV and/or radio.

• If the printer, TV and/or radio are plugged into the same outlet, unplug them,
then plug them into different outlets.

• Reposition the TV and/or radio antennas and cables until the interference stops.
For external antennas, consult your local electrician.

• Use coaxial cable with the antennas

Operating Precautions

#

Do not place any liquid containers such as vases or coffee cups on the printer.
Liquids spilt on the printer constitue a fire and electrical shock hazard.

Do not place any metal parts such as staples or clips on the printer. If metal and
flammable parts get into the printer, they can short-circuit internal components,
and cause fire or electric shocks.

If debris (metal or liquid) gets into the printer, turn off and unplug the printer. Con­tact your dealer. Operating a debris-contaminated printer can cause fire or electric
shocks.

Never open or remove printer covers that are secured with screws unless specifi­cally instructed to do so in the this manual.
A high-voltage component can cause electric shocks.

Do not try to alter the printer's configuration or modify any parts. An unauthorized
modification can cause smoke or fire.

This printer complies with the IEC60825 (Class 1) international laser standard.
This means that the printer does not present any risk of injury to persons from
laser radiation. Various covers confine the laser radiation to the inside of the
printer; hence, users cannot incur injury from the laser under normal operating
conditions. Removing covers, unless instructed to do so in this manual, can cause
injury from laser radiation.

xx

Never touch a labeled area found on or near the fuser unit. You can burn yourself.
If a sheet of paper is wrapped around the fuser roller, do not try to remove it by
yourself to avoid injuries or burns. Turn off the printer immediately and contact
your dealer.

Do not place any heavy objects on the printer. An off-balance printer can fall over
or the heavy object can fall, causing injuries.

Do not use highly flammable spra ys or solvents in or around the printer, as this can
result in fire.

When removing paper jams, make sure no pieces of paper are left inside the
printer, as this can cause fire.
If the paper is wrapped around the fuser or roller, or you cannot see the jam you
are trying to clear, do not attempt to remove the paper by yourself, as this may
cause injury or burns.
Turn off the printer immediately, and contact the place of purchase.

Do not place magnets near the safety switch of the printer. Magnets can activate
the printer accidentally, resulting in injuries.

Other Precautions

■ Refer to this manual f or procedures on clearing paper jams and how to resolv e any

other troubles that may occur.

xxi

Notes on Handling Consumables

Never throw a toner car tridge into an open flame. It can cause an explosion and
injuries.

Never throw a transfer roller cartr idge into an open flame. It can cause an explo­sion and injuries.

Never throw a drum car tridge into an open flame. It can cause an explosion and
injuries.

xxii

Other Precautions

■ Do not open consumables until you are ready to use them. Do not store consum-

ables in the following conditions:

• In high temperature or humidity

• Near a naked flame

• Exposed to direct sunlight

• Dusty areas

■ Before using consumables, read both the operating instructions and precautions

on the packaging and the sheet which comes with the consumable.

■ Administer emergency first aid as follows:

• If you get toner in your eyes, rinse them well with plenty of clean water. Consult

a physician if necessary.

• If you get toner on your skin, wash it with soap and water and rinse well.

• If you inhale toner, leave the area of exposure immediately and gargle with

plenty of water.

• If you swallow toner, induce vomiting and consult your physician immediately.

■ When you remove the transfer roller from the printer because the waste toner col-

lection box is full, do not attempt to empty the waste toner box.

■ Do not tilt or shake drum cartridges or transfer rollers that has been removed tem-

porarily. Toner may leak and cause damage.

1.2 Configuring the Printer

TCP/IP (Windows NT 4.0/Windows 2000/Windo ws XP)

The printer supports TCP/IP (LPD) protocol, allowing you to print by sending
data through an lpr port directly to the printer from computers running Windows
NT 4.0, Windows 2000, or Windows XP. To do this, you need to set the IP
address of the printer and the Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, or Windows XP
computer.

TCP/IP(LPR/LPD)

■ In Windows 2000/Windows XP the following are possible:

●

The printer supports port 9100, allowing you to print by sending data from the
designated port to the printer.

●

With the use of the optional network protocol expansion card the printer
supports IPP, allowing you to print by specifying the URL of the printer and
sending data to it through the Internet.

TCP/IP (Windows 95/Windows 98/Windows Me)

Use the TCP/IP Direct Print Utility to print from Windows 95, Windows 98, or
Windows Me.
The TCP/IP Direct Printer Utility is a program that sends print data from the
computer directly to the printer through a network, without the need to go through
a network print server.
To do this, you need to set the IP address of the printer and the Windows 95,
Windows 98, or Windows Me computer.
The TCP/IP Direct Print Utility protocol also works with LPD and port 9100.

SMB (Windows network)

■ With Windows Me setup for IPP, the following types of

printing are possible:

The printer, by use of an optional network expansion card, supports IPP,
allowing you to print by specifying the URL of the printer and sending data to it
through the Internet.

Installing an optional network expansion card enables the printer to use the SMB
(Server Message Block) protocol. The SMB protocol allows computers running
Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, and
Windows XP to share files and printers. Using the SMB protocol means that you
do not need to use a server. Printing is carried out by sending data directly to the
printer.
If using TCP\IP on a network which includes a server, the recommended way of
sharing the T8024 printer is to connect the printer to the server using either port
9100 or lpr and then sharing the printer from a server. This means that the
optional Network protocol expansion card, required for SMB printing, would not
be required. See network user guide for more details.
The SMB transport protocol can be NetBEUI or TCP/IP. However, Windows XP
does not support NetBEUI.

Printing from a Macintosh Computer

The optional PostScript3 kit is required in order to print from a Macintosh
computer.
When the printer is connected to the Macintosh computer by USB cable, printing
is possible using the Adobe PostScript driver.
Further, with the optional network expansion card installed, the printer can be
connected to an EtherTalk network. Printing is then possible from Macintosh
computers that are connected to the network.
See the Postscript User Guide for details of installation of the optional PDL
emulation, Postscript level 3, onto Macintosh computers.

Cases When You Should Refer to the Network User Guide

The following network functions are provided with the printer. For details about
these functions, refer to the Network User Guide on the CD-ROM provided with
the printer.

■In a variety of network environments, the printer gives you flexibility to:

●

In a TCP/IP system...
Have the printer's IP address managed by a DHCP server.
Register the printer on a WINS server.

The IP address will change from time to time when you use DHCP, so periodic confirmation
of the IP address is necessary. An optional network expansion card is required in order to
use DHCP in a WINS environment.

●

In an SMB system... Change the host name or workgroup name.

■Using Internet Services in a TCP/IP system

This enables you to display the printer status and make various settings from a
Web page. This function is called "Internet Services".

■The printer has an SNMP agent function for use in TCP/IP and NetWare

systems.

With the SNMP function active (active by default), you can contro l the printer
from an SNMP manager.

Also, with the Simple Status Notification function, you can check the status of
the printer from your computer.

(Windows NT 4.0/Windows 2000/
Windows XP/Windows 2003)

The procedure for installing the printer drive r onto Windows NT 4.0/Windows 2000/Windows
XP is as follows. The Auto run cd will install the printer driver onto the lpt1 port . This is the
best method to use under normal circumstances. If the printer is using SMB or Novell
printing it may be necessary under some circumstances to not allow the cd to Auto Install.
Please consult your network administrator for advice. Instead the printe r drive r sh ou ld be
added by selecting the add printer driver and pointing to the correct place on the CD. This
should always be done when printing using IPP. This is due to the difficulty in selecting
network ports on the above systems after installing the printer driver

Refer to the Network User Guide for more details on the installation of the printer onto a network.

●

Before installing the printer driver on a Windows NT 4.0 system, it is necessary to set up TCP/IP Protocol and
Microsoft TCP/IP Printing. Refer to the manuals on Windows NT 4.0 for details.

●

You can select LPR Port or Standard TCP/IP Port as the output destination for the port on a Windows 2000
system. When you select LPR Port, before installing the printer driver, you are required to set up Print Services
for Unix on Windows 2000. Refer to the manuals on Windows 2000 for details.
