• CentreWare IS: A web server embedded in your network printer,
which allows you to remotely configure the printer settings and
network parameters necessary for the printer to be connected to
various network environments.
• SetIP: A utility program allowing you to select your network printer
and manually configure the printer's TCP/IP addresses.
Via the control panel
You can set up the following basic network parameters through the
printer’s control panel:

4.1 <
Network setup>
Configuring TCP/IP
Configuring EtherTalk
Your printer 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 printer 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.
Static addressing
To enter a TCP/IP address from your printer’s control panel, take the
following steps:
1 Press Menu until Network appears on the bottom line of the
display and press OK.
2 Press OK when TCP/IP appears.
3 Press the Up/down arrow buttons until Static appears and press
OK.
4 Press OK when IP Address appears.
5 Set the first byte between 0 and 255 using the Up/down arrow
buttons and press OK to move to the next byte.
Repeat this to complete the address from the 1st byte to the 4th
byte.
6 When you have finished, press OK.
7 Repeat step 5 and 6 to configure the other TCP/IP parameters:
subnet mask and gateway address.
8 Press Start/Stop to return to Standby mode.
EtherTalk is AppleTalk used in an Ethernet network. This protocol is
widely used in Macintosh network environments. To use EtherTalk, take
the following steps:
1 Press Menu until Network appears on the bottom line of the

standard for port based network access control. It secures your network
against unauthorized access by requiring authentication before network
access and data transmission are allowed. There are 3 mutually
exclusive options for 802.1x authentication.

5 Loading print media
This chapter will help you understand types of paper you can use with
your printer and how to properly load paper in the different paper trays
for the best print quality.
This chapter includes:
• Selecting print media
• Loading paper
• Selecting an output location
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 printer. 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 printer.
Properties, such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture content,
are important factors that affect the printer’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 printer supports print media weights as follows:
- 16 to 24 lb bond (60 to 90 g/m
- 16 to 43 lb bond (60 to 163 g/m
- 20 to 24 lb (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.

Notes
• Some print media may meet all of the guidelines in this
section and still not produce satisfactory results. This may be
the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature
and humidity levels, or other variables over which Xerox
no control.
• Before purchasing large quantities of print media, ensure that
it meets the requirements specified in this user’s guide.

Caution
Using print media that does not meet these specifications may
cause problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are not

Guidelines for selecting and storing print media
Guidelines for special 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 printer.
• 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
(59o 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 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
• 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/m2 (24 lb) or jamming
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 printer 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
5.3 <
• 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 of 200° C (392° F) 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 (0.6 inches) from the edges
of the envelope.
• Avoid printing over the area where the
envelope’s seams meet.
