1. Getting Started
Features of This Machine
This machine is designed especially for office workgroups, both for shared usage within a network environment, and for one-to-one usage connected directly
to a computer.
❖❖❖❖ Standard compatibility with Windows 95/98/Me, Windows 2000, Windows XP and
Windows NT 4.0
As the printer drivers for the above operating systems are included, it is possible to print to maximum capacity by using the special features of this machine.
❖❖❖❖ Network Connectivity
This machine can be used as a network printer.
It can print from any environment as it supports at the same time NetWare
(TCP/IP, IPX/SPX), Windows 95/98/Me (TCP/IP, NetBEUI), Windows 2000
(TCP/IP, NetBEUI), Windows XP (TCP/IP), Windows NT 4.0 (TCP/IP, NetBEUI), UNIX (TCP/IP), and Macintosh (AppleTalk).
If you register the user code by using the client, you can keep track of printing
jobs done under each code.
❖❖❖❖ Use the Network Utilities included at your own convenience.
When you use “SmartNetMonitor for Client” and “SmartNetMonitor for Admin” network utilities, you can parallel print, allowing you to scatter large
amounts of print sets across multiple printers; or alternative print, which allows you to use another printer when you can not access the network printer
you are trying to use. Also, while at your workstation, the machine will notify
you when the print job is completed.
❖❖❖❖ Complete Paper Handling Option
With the optional finisher installed, you can collate, staple and punch. Also
with the optional mailbox tray installed, you can print and separate output
destinations.
❖❖❖❖ Using the Document Server
The document server stores files sent from the computer on the hard disk of
the machine. Later, the printer settings can be configured and the files printed. Even when this machine is used as a network printer, passwords can be
assigned to each file, providing a high level of security. Also, you can combine and print files scanned by this machine.

Setting Paper on the Bypass Tray
This section gives instructions for setting paper on the bypass tray. Use the bypass tray to print onto OHP transparencies, labels, thick paper, letterheads and
envelopes that cannot be loaded in the paper tray.
Reference
For setting paper into the regular paper tray, see the General Settings Guide.
Note
❒ Paper within the following dimensions can be set in the bypass tray:
• Vertical: 100.0 - 305.0 mm (3.93 in. - 12.00 in.)
• Horizontal: 139.7 - 600.0 mm (5.50 in. - 23.62 in.)
❒ Be sure to set the paper with the side you want to print facing up in L orien-
tation in the bypass tray.
❒ OHP transparencies, thick paper, labels, or envelopes fed from the bypass
tray are delivered face up onto the output tray.
Limitation
❒ The following functions are disabled when printing from the bypass tray:
• Duplex Printing
• Auto Tray Select
• Auto Tray Switching
• 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 direction to 180 degrees.
❒ Make 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.
