1.2 Setting the Network Environment25
Obtaining an IP Address in IPv6
The printer supports IPv6 addresses. You can use IPv6 addresses with this printer under
an IPv6 network environment.
By default, [IP Mode] of this printer is set to [Dual Stack]. In Dual Stack mode, IPv4, IPv6 or
both are automatically detected. When you connect the printer to an IPv6 network, the
address is automatically assigned to the printer.
If you want to assign a static IP address to the printer under an IPv6-only environment, you
can manually assign a static IPv6 address.
Use the following procedure to assign a static IPv6 address to this printer.
To Set a Static Address Using CentreWare Internet Services
1.Print the [Printer Settings] list to find the IP address assigned to the printer.
You can see the IP address is listed in the right column of the Wired Network table list.

Before using non-standard size paper, set its paper size in your print driver.
When loading non-standard-size paper in the paper tray, set its paper size also on the
control panel. For information on how to set a paper size with the control panel, refer to
"Setting the Paper Size" (P. 80).
The following procedure uses Windows XP as an example.
Important
• Make sure to set the paper size correctly on the print driver or on the control panel. Setting the wrong
paper size can cause printer failure.
Note
• On Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, or Windows Server 2008, only
users with administrator privileges can change the settings. Users without administrator privileges can
only view the settings.
• Changing the settings in the [Custom Paper Size] dialog box on Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows
Server 2003, Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008, when the printer is a local printer, can affect the
settings for other printers on your computer. Whereas, changing those settings when the printer is a
network printer can affect other network-shared printers on other computers over the network. This is
because the printer uses its own form database when it is local, and uses the form database of a server
that has a print queue when it is networked.
1.On the Windows [Start] menu, click [Printers and Faxes].
Select to highlight the printer, and select [Properties] from the [File] menu.

- Secure Print -
If your printer has the additional memory (optional) installed, you can use Secure Print.
Important
• As data is stored in the RAM disk, the data is erased when the printer is switched off.
Secure Print
Secure Print allows you to send a password-protected document to the printer. The printer
then stores the document temporarily, rather than printing it immediately, until you manually
start the printing from the control panel. By storing frequently-used documents in the printer,
you can print them whenever you want, without having to send them each time from your
computer.
Note
• You can select whether to delete or not to delete a Secure Print job after printing, when you print the job
from the control panel. For more information, refer to "Operations on the Control Panel" (P. 54).
• To use the Secure Print feature with the RAM disk, configure the following settings:
- Set [RAM Disk] to [Available] on the [Options] tab in the properties dialog box that is displayed by
clicking the printer icon. For details, refer to "Changing the Accessory Configuration on the Print Driver"
(P. 188).
- Set [Admin Menu] > [System Settings] > [RAM Disk] to other than [Off] on the control panel.

Precautions When Using E-mail Print
Security Precautions
E-mail uses the Internet, a network connecting computers around the world, as its
transmission medium. So, exchanging e-mails involves security risks, such as information
leakage and tampering.
When exchanging important or confidential information, we recommend that you use a
method other than e-mail that guarantees security. And to prevent unwanted e-mails, we
encourage you not to give out the printer's e-mail address unless necessary.
Setting the Access-Permitted Domains
The printer can be programmed to receive e-mails only from particular domains.
For more information, refer to the online help of CentreWare Internet Services.
Precautions When Connecting the Printer to an Internet Provider
• If your Internet provider does not bill you a flat rate, or if you do not have full-time access
to the Internet, you will be charged every time the printer retrieves data from the e-mail
server.
• Make sure to connect the printer in an IP masqueraded environment. This feature may
not function properly when the printer is connected to the Internet with a global IP address
assigned.
• When enabling POP access, make sure to create an e-mail account specific for the
printer. Using a shared e-mail account can cause problems.
• When the transmission speed of the Internet is slow, it may take time to receive large data
such as graphics.
• When connecting the printer to an Internet environment where MTA is running in a private
segment, configure the settings according to your operating needs.
Job History for E-mail Print Jobs
• If you view the history of E-mail Print jobs on CentreWare Internet Services, [Job Name],
[Owner], [Host Name], [Host I/F], and [Job Submission Time] will be blank. The above
items will also be blank in the [Job History Report]. [Input Port] in the [Job History Report]
will be printed as [Other].

Loading Paper in the Manual Feeder
This section describes how to load paper in the Manual Feeder.
Read the following instructions when loading paper in the Manual Feeder.
Important
• Load paper with the machine turned on.
• When using the Manual Feeder, paper may skew when being printed. In this case, use Tray 1 or Tray 2.
Note
• When loading envelopes in the Manual Feeder, be sure to orient the paper correctly when loading. For
more information, refer to " Loading Envelopes" (P. 45).
1.Adjust the paper guides of the Manual
Feeder to the size of the paper to be
printed.
Important:
•Adjust the paper guides to the paper size. If you
adjust the guides too tightly or too loosely, a
paper jam may result.
2.Hold the paper with both hands, with the
side of the paper to printed on facing
downward. Insert the leading edge of the
paper until it touches the rear side of the
Manual Feeder. Hold the paper until it is
slightly pulled into the printer.

Temporarily stops receiving the data for the print job. The data that is
already received continues being printed, as soon as the printers buffer
memory has enough space to receive the print data from the scanner, the
current print job is interrupted and the data from the scanner is printed. This
means that the data from the scanner is printed in the middle of the current
print job.
•[Off]
Does not interrupt the current print job.
The print data from the scanner is printed after the current print job and any
print jobs incoming from other ports are finished printing.
Print PriorityLimits the number of pages that can be stored in the printer's buffer memory.
This means that the data from the scanner is printed quickly when [Interrupt
Print] is set to [On].
• [Off] (default)
Number of pages is not limited.
When a print job from the scanner interrupts the current print job, print data
already in the printer's buffer memory continues to print until there is
enough space for the print data from the scanner. In this case, it may take a
long time to print the print data from the scanner if each page of the print
data already in the buffer memory is small because many pages need to be
printed to open up enough space in the buffer memory.
•[On]
Number of pages is limited.
The print data from the scanner is printed quickly because the number of
pages stored in the printer's buffer memory is limited. However, this may
reduce the performance of regular printing.

Odd Page 2SidedSpecifies how to print the last page when the total number of pages is an odd
number. For 2 sided printing, the optional Duplex Unit is necessary.
• [1 Sided] (default)
The simplex paper feed mechanism works for the last page. Thus, the
paper orientation of the last page is not the same as others. This saves time
for preparing to make 2 sided printing for the last page, resulting in faster
printing.
• [2 Sided]
The duplex paper feed mechanism works for the last page, even though it is
an odd number. Thus, the paper orientation of the last page is the same as
others. Select this option when printing on paper for which top/bottom and
left/right must be distinguished, for example, hole punched paper. This
makes the paper orientation of the last page the same as others.
