16 1 Basic Operations

1.3 Low Power Mode/Sleep Mode

The 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 3 minutes, the printer will enter the low power mode. When no data is received for a further 2 minutes (a total of 5 minutes lapse (default) since the last receiving data), it will enter the sleep mode by default.
The time ranges that can be specified for the printer to enter the low power mode and the sleep mode are 3 to 60 minutes and 2 to 120 minutes, respectively. Consumption of power during the sleep mode is 9 W or less and the time required to exit from the sleep mode to a print-ready status is about 30 seconds.
Note
• You can change the settings so that the printer does not enter the sleep mode.
• For details on the low power mode and the procedure to change the settings, refer to “Basic Operations
(Example: Changing the Low Power Timer)” (P. 64).
Exiting the Low Power Mode/Sleep Mode
The printer automatically cancels the low power mode/sleep mode once it receives data from the computer.
To manually cancel the low power mode, press one of the buttons on the control panel.
To manually cancel the sleep mode, press the <Power Saver>.
1.3 Low Power Mode/Sleep Mode 17

2.2 Printing on Envelopes/Transparencies

This section explains how to print on envelopes and transparencies.

Loading Envelopes/Transparencies

Envelopes and transparencies can be loaded in the bypass tray.
Note
• For details on the procedure to load paper in bypass tray, refer to “Loading Paper in the Bypass Tray”
(P. 59).
Loading Envelopes
Load envelopes with the address side facing down.
The orientation and handling of envelope flaps is as follows.
Envelope orientation and feed direction
Paper feed direction Paper feed direction
Facing down with the flap closed and at the right.
Note
• Envelops may wrinkle sometimes. In that case, it is likely to be improved by changing the position of the flap to the left.
Facing down with the flap open and against you.
Note
• Set [Portrait & Landscape (For envelopes)] on the printer driver.
The following explains how to load envelopes in the bypass tray using envelopes with the flap on a long edge as an example.
Important
• The reverse side of the envelope cannot be printed on.
• Envelopes can get wrinkled or the print quality is reduced depending on the type used. For details about the usable envelope sizes, refer to “Usable Paper” (P. 54).
1. Insert the envelopes with the flaps close
and at the right side.
22 2 Printing
2. Slide the paper guides to the size of the envelope.
Loading Transparencies
Important
• Transparencies with a white frame and full-color transparencies cannot be used.
1. After carefully fanning a small stack of
transparencies, load them into the bypass tray with the side to be printed facing down. Load transparencies a few at a time.
2. Slide the paper guides to the size of the transparencies.
3. Pull out the extension tray when loading paper such as transparencies.

Printing on Envelopes/Transparencies

To print on envelopes or transparencies using the PCL printer driver, display the [Paper/ Output] tab and [Basic] tab. This section explains the procedure using WordPad on Windows XP as an example.
Note
• When [Bypass Mode] is set to [Panel Specified], you need to set the paper type and size settings for the tray on the control panel in advance. For details, refer to “3.3 Setting Paper Types and Sizes” (P. 61).
• The way to display the printer properties dialog box differs according to the application software. Refer to the manual of your respective application software.
• Printing transparencies continuously may lead to the output transparencies sticking to each other. Remove the transparencies from the output tray after about 20 sheets, and then fan them to lower their temperatures.
1. From the [File] menu, select [Print].
2. Select this printer as the printer to be used and click [Preferences].
3. Click the [Paper/Output] tab.
4. From [Paper Source], select [Bypass Tray].

10. Set [Image Rotation 180deg ] if necessary, and then click [OK].
11. Click [OK].
12. Click [Print] in the [Print] dialog box to start printing.
24 2 Printing

2.3 Printing on Custom Size Paper/Long Paper

This section explains how to print on custom size paper such as long paper using the PCL printer driver.
Custom size paper can be loaded in each tray. The paper sizes that can be selected on this printer are as follows:
For bypass tray For paper tray
Paper feed direction
Long edge:
98.0 to 355.6 mm
Short edge:
76.2 to 220.0 mm
Note
• The way to load custom size paper in the paper tray is the same as the one to load standard size paper. For details, refer to“Loading Paper in the Paper Tray” (P. 58).
• The way to load custom size paper in the bypass tray is the same as the one to load standard size paper. For details, refer to “Loading Paper in the Bypass Tray” (P. 59).
• When [Bypass Mode] is set to [Panel Specified], you need to set the paper type and size settings for the tray on the control panel in advance. For details, refer to “3.3 Setting Paper Types and Sizes” (P. 61).

Setting Custom Paper Sizes

Before printing, set the custom size on the printer driver.
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.
Paper feed direction
Long edge:
210.0 to 355.6 mm
Short edge:
148.0 to 215.9 mm
On the PCL 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 of administrator 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 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.

About Secure Print

Secure Print is a feature that allows you to assign a password to a print job from the computer, send it to the printer for temporarily storing, and start printing the data from the control panel. You can also store the print data in the printer without attaching a password. By storing frequent-used data in the printer, you can print the data with just an operation from the printer, and without sending the data from the computer repeatedly.
Send data
Note
• You can select whether to delete secure print data after printing. For details, refer to “At the Control
