1.3Power Saver Modes
This printer is equipped with a low power mode and a sleep mode to reduce power
consumption when it is left idle.
When no print data is received for 5 minutes, the printer will enter the low power mode.
When no data is received for a further 10 minutes (a total of 15 minutes lapse (default
settings) since the last received data), it will enter sleep mode. You can specify whether the
printer goes into low power mode or sleep mode. The time ranges to specify for the printer
to go into low power mode or sleep mode are 5 to 30 minutes respectively. Consumption of
power during the sleep mode is 10 W or less (220 - 240 V) or 5 W or less (120 V) and the
time taken to exit from the sleep mode to a print-ready status is about 10 seconds.
Note
• You can enable either only the low power mode or the sleep mode.
• Both the low power mode and sleep mode cannot be disabled at the same time.
• For details on the low power/sleep mode and the procedure to change the settings, refer to “Example:
Changing the Low Power/Sleep Mode Settings” (P. 68).
• When the lower power mode and sleep mode are both enabled, the sleep mode setting is given priority.
For example, when 15 minutes is set for the sleep mode and 30 minutes is set for the low power mode,
the printer enters the sleep mode 15 minutes after the last data is received, and the sleep mode
continues even after an additional 15 minutes when the printer is programmed to enter the low power
mode.

Setting Custom Paper Sizes
Before printing, set the custom size on the printer driver.
You have to configure the settings on the control panel too when loading custom size paper
in trays 1 to 4. For details on setting the control panel, refer to “3.3 Setting Custom Paper
Sizes” (P. 63).
Important
• When setting the paper size on the printer driver and control panel, be sure to specify the same size as
the actual paper used. Setting the wrong size for printing will cause the machine failure. This is
especially true if you configure a bigger size when using a narrow width paper.
On the printer driver, set the custom size in the [Custom Paper Size] dialog box. This section
explains the procedure using Windows XP as an example.
Note
• For Windows NT 4.0/Windows 2000/Windows XP/Windows Server 2003, only users with administrator’s
rights can change the settings. Users without the rights can only check the contents.
• When configuring the [Custom Paper Size] dialog box in Windows NT 4.0/Windows 2000/Windows XP/
Windows Server 2003, settings of other printers on the computer will also be affected as the form data
base of the computer is used by a local printer. For a shared printer on the network, settings of other
shared printers on the same network in another computer will also be affected as the form data base on
the server with existing print queue is used. When setting on Windows 95/Windows 98/Windows Me,
settings of other printers on the computer will not be affected as the settings are for paper sizes defined
by each printer icon. For shared printers on the network, settings of other shared printers on the same
network but in another computer will not be affected as the settings are for paper sizes defined by each
printer icon.

2.8Direct Printing of PDF File
You can send PDF files directly to the printer for printing without using the printer driver. As
the print data is sent directly to the printer, the printing process will be simpler than printing
with the printer driver and at a faster speed. The way to print a PDF file directly is as follows.
Using PDF Bridge Feature
To print PDF file using the PDF Bridge feature, you can use ContentsBridge Utility (Utility
software is supplied by Fuji Xerox) or lpr command to send the data directly to the printer.
PostScript software kit (optional) is required to use the PDF Bridge feature.
Note
• When using ContentsBridge Utility, refer to “Using ContentsBridge Utility to Print PDF” (P. 41). When
using lpr command, refer to “Printing a PDF File Without Using ContentsBridge Utility” (P. 47).
• To use the PDF Bridge feature correctly for printing, you may need to have the additional memory
(optional).
Using PostScript Feature
When the PostScript software kit (optional) has been installed, you can use the PostScript
feature to send PDF file to the printer directly for printing.
Note
• When using the PostScript feature to print PDF files directly, refer to “PDF” (P. 71) for details on how to
set [Process Mode] of [PDF] to [PS] on the control panel and then refer to“Printing a PDF File Without
Using ContentsBridge Utility” (P. 47) for details on how to print.
• Using the PostScript feature can print PDF file attached with object using LZW compression. LZW uses
the LZW algorithm that has received the license of US Patent No. 4,558,302.
Important
• When using USB or parallel port to print PDF file directly, use ContentsBridge Utility.
PDF Files That Can Be Printed
PDF files that can be printed are those created by Adobe Acrobat 4 and Adobe Acrobat 5
(except one part of the features added by PDF 1.4).
Note
• You may not be able to print some PDF files directly by the printer due to the way of creating them.
When this happens, open the PDF files and use the printer driver to print them.

always connected to the network, a telephone charge will incur every time this printer
retrieves data regularly from the mail server.
• Connect the printer to an IP masqueraded environment. Functionality of this printer is not
guaranteed when it is assigned global IP addresses.
• When receiving e-mails via POP, always apply an exclusive e-mail account for the printer.
Using a common e-mail account shared with other users will result in errors.
• When the internet connection speed is slow, it takes time to receive huge data such as
image data.
• There are also providers that allows receiving of e-mails via SMTP. Detailed adjustments
with the provider is required for such cases.
• When setting up e-mail configuration in an environment where MTA support is set up in
private segments, match the operating configuration.

remove the lid.
2.If the base plate of the paper tray is raised,
push it down.
3.When loading paper that is larger than
A4-size, slide the left and right lock tabs
outwards to unlock them. If you are loading
a paper size of A4 or smaller, proceed to
step 6.
4.Hold the grip of the paper tray and pull its
extendable part to the front until it reaches
the paper size (B4 or A3).
3.2 Loading Paper 59
5.Slide the tabs that you shifted at step 3
inwards to lock them.
6.Squeeze the length guide and slide it to the
desired paper size (1). Squeeze the right
width guide and slide it to the desired paper
size (2).
7.Load the paper with the side to be printed
facing up and with all four corners aligned.
Make sure the paper is not on top of the
side guide. Change the paper size label to
match the size of the loaded paper.
Important
• Do not load paper so it exceeds the maximum fill line
or the maximum capacity allowed.
• Align the right width guide with the paper width
correctly. If the right width guide is not in place, the
paper will not be properly fed and this may cause
paper jams.
Note
• For details about loading envelopes and long paper, refer to “2.2 Printing on Envelopes” (P. 22) and “2.4
Printing on Custom Size Paper/Long Paper” (P. 27).
8.Close the lid of the paper tray and push the tray completely into the printer.
Important
• The lid of the tray must be firmly closed. If not, the paper might become misaligned.
• When the paper tray is extended, close the lid of the extendable part.
9.Depending on the types and sizes of the loaded paper, you need to configure settings
on the control panel. Change the paper type when non-plain paper such as recycled

3.2 Loading Paper 61
Automatic Tray Selection
If you display the properties dialog box of the printer driver and select a paper type for
[Specify Paper Type] and [Auto] for [Paper Source] on the [Tray/Output] tab for printing, this
printer will be able to automatically detect paper trays loaded with the selected paper type
and then among them, select the tray that matches the size and orientation of the document
to be printed. This feature is known as automatic tray selection.
If there are multiple trays that match those criteria for automatic tray selection, a tray is
selected based on the settings for [Tray Priority] on the control panel.
In addition, if [None] is specified for [Specify Paper Type], a tray is selected based on the
settings of [Paper Priority] on the control panel. If the same priority is not assigned to more
than one paper type, a tray is selected based on the settings of [Tray Priority].
Note
• If there are no paper trays that match the automatic tray selection, an error message prompting for
replenishment of paper will be displayed. You can configure the printer not to display this message but to
automatically select a nearest or larger paper size of the document for printing. (Substitute Tray)
• If paper runs out during printing, a paper tray containing paper of the same size and orientation of the
paper used for printing will be selected to continue printing (automatic tray switching). If [None] is
specified for [Specify Paper Type], the paper types that have not been specified for [Paper Priority] are
excluded from the options of the automatic tray selection and automatic tray switching.
• You can also specify the paper tray priority in CentreWare Internet Services.
• If there are no paper trays that match the paper types that are specified for [Specify Paper Type], a
message prompting to confirm printing on another paper type will be displayed. Press the <Eject/Set>
button to print on paper of another type or press the <Cancel Job> button to cancel the job.
Refer to
• Configuring control panel settings: “Printer Settings” (P. 89)
• Specify Paper Type: Online help for the printer driver

This section explains how to configure the size on the control panel.
For details on registration on the printer driver, refer to “Setting Custom Paper Sizes”
(P. 29).
Important
• When setting the paper size on the printer driver and control panel, be sure to specify the same size as
the actual paper used. Setting the wrong size for printing will cause machine failure. This is especially
true if you configure a bigger size when using a narrow width paper.
Note
• When loading custom size paper in the bypass tray (optional), it is not necessary to specify the size on
the control panel.
• To return to standard paper size settings, select [Auto] in step 6 below. This printer will automatically

Memory typesStandardPS
PS memory
HPGL auto layout memory
Receive buffer size
Print page buffer
: Available
: Not available
: Not available when the hard disk (optional) is installed.
PS: PostScript software kit (optional)
Important
• Changing the memory capacity will reset the memory and delete all data stored in each memory area.
• You cannot exceed the overall memory capacity during memory allocation. If the setting value exceeds
the actual memory capacity, the system will automatically adjust it when the printer turns on.
• If the memory is running out when [Enable] is specified for the port, the port may be disabled
automatically. In this case, you need to disable the port(s) you are not using or change the memory
allocation. However, the parallel and USB ports will not stop automatically.
Note
• The memory allocation settings (except the print page buffer setting) are available in the control panel
and CentreWare Internet Services.
• The print page buffer is the area in which the actual print image can be drawn. The print page buffer is
allocated to the remaining area after the memory is allocated to all other uses. Therefore, you cannot
directly change the print page buffer capacity. You can check the actual print page buffer size in [System
Settings List]. You can also check it in CentreWare Internet Services. When you want to print a
high-resolution document, allocate memory so that the print page buffer size is large.
PS
Specifies the memory capacity for PostScript (optional). This item is displayed when the
PostScript software kit (optional) is installed.
Specify the memory capacity between 4.50 and 96.00 MB in increments of 0.25 MB. The

from a computer is saved temporarily). For LPD, SMB, and IPP, specify the availability of
spool processing, locations, and memory capacity.
You can change the receive buffer capacity depending on how busy the conditions are and
purposes. Increasing the receive buffer capacity may increase the disconnection speed of
the computer for each interface. The maximum capacity you can specify depends on the
free memory capacity.
Note
• If a port is disabled, the items for it will not be displayed.
• Even if the memory capacity is increased, the disconnection speed of a computer may not be changed
due to the data volume sent from a computer.
Parallel, Serial, NetWare Memory, IPP Memory, USB Memory, Port9100 Memory

(1024 and 2048 KB when the mounted RAM is 256 MB or more) in increments of 32 KB.
The default is [1024K].
For SMB, specify the SMB specific receive buffer memory capacity between 64 and 1024
KB in increments of 32 KB. The default is [256K].
[Hard Disk]
Select this to perform spool processing. This uses the hard disk (optional) as the receive
buffer for spool processing. This item is displayed when the hard disk is installed.
[Memory]
Select this to perform spool processing. This uses the memory as the receive buffer for
spool processing.
If you select this option, specify the receive buffer memory capacity for spool processing
between 0.5 and 32.00 MB in increments of 0.25 MB. The default is [1.00 M]. Note that the
printer cannot receive data that is larger than the specified memory capacity. In this case,
select [Hard Disk] or [Off].
Important
• If LPR byte count is disabled in Windows 2000 and you send a document whose size is larger than the
spool memory capacity, the computer will repeatedly try to send the job. To stop this, open the [Port] tab
from the properties dialog box of the printer driver to enable the LPR byte count or change the memory
spool capacity to a value larger than the document size.
