Here are some of the advantages PDF-formatted manuals provide: You can store the PDF manuals in a central location for access by anyone on the network. 4063ULQW6\VWHP*HWWLQJ6WDUWHG $ERXWWKH 'RFXPHQWDWLRQ You can view and print the manuals on Windows, Macintosh, and UNIX platforms. You can view the manuals on web browsers using the Acrobat plug-in. You can view the manuals on-screen in different formats (sideby-side or two-up, one page at a time, scrolling two-up, article flow, and zooming capability up to 800%). You can conduct full-text searches through all of the manuals. You can print only the manual pages that you need. The PDF-formatted manuals have been enhanced for on-screen viewing and navigation. Throughout each manual are numerous hotlinks to cross-reference points. The table of contents and the index are fully hotlinked to their respective page references, and all World Wide Web addresses are linked to their respective home pages. We hope you enjoy using the Acrobat software to access the information in your manuals. They’ll never become dog-eared and yellowed or collect dust on some forgotten shelf with quick on-line access. Your PDF-formatted manuals will empower you to take full advantage of all the capabilities of your printer. 8VLQJ$GREH$FUREDW5HDGHU When you use Acrobat to view your manuals, keep the following tips in mind for using some of the navigation features built into Acrobat and your manuals. You may view the document in three different styles: page only, with bookmarks, or with thumbnails. Try each to see which you like best. Viewing with bookmarks will enable you to use a quick table of contents to move around the document. The toolbar also gives you quick access to page navigation features. For example, you may click a button to advance (>) or reverse (<) one page, go to the start (|<) or end (>|) of the document, or use the history button (<<) to go to the previous pages you viewed. There are other buttons in the toolbar to change view or magnification of the document. ,QWURGXFWLRQ $ERXWWKH 'RFXPHQWDWLRQ As you browse through the document the open hand tool will sometimes turn into a pointing hand. You have discovered an embedded link in the manual. You will find these links in the table of contents, index, www addresses, and cross references. Click on the link to jump to a new location.

To ensure that your printer was not damaged during shipment, follow the entire procedure, including printing the start-up page. » Note: Save the packing materials in case you ever have to move or ship the printer to a new location. ▲ Caution: Remove all packing materials before turning on the printer, or you may damage it. 1 Lift off the box, and remove everything except the printer from the shipping carton. 4063ULQW6\VWHP*HWWLQJ6WDUWHG ,QVWDOOLQJD 7RQHU&DUWULGJH 2 Lift the printer out of the shipping carton. Carrying grips are located on the bottom of the left and right sides of the printer. 0 WARNING! The printer weighs about 53 lbs (24 kg). Don’t lift it by yourself. ACHTUNG! Der Drucker wiegt ca 24 kg; bitte versuchen Sie niemals, das Gerät alleine anzuheben oder zu tragen. 3 Remove the protective plastic covering, foam, and tape from the outside of the printer. 4 Remove the packing materials and tape from inside the printer and media cassette. 5 Slide the cassette into the feeder, if necessary. 6 Place the printer in the location where it is to reside. ,QVWDOOLQJD7RQHU&DUWULGJH » Note: The toner cartridge is sensitive to bright light. Do not remove the cartridge from its protective bag until you’re ready to install it. Store the cartridge in an environment that is not subject to extreme heat or humidity, salty air, or corrosive gases, such as aerosols. Keep the toner cartridge away from your computer. The magnets in the cartridge can damage data, particularly on your floppy disks. 1 » Lift the toner cartridge out of its shipping carton, open the protective bag, and remove the cartridge. Note: After taking the toner cartridge from its protective bag, do not open the cover or touch the OPC drum of the toner cartridge because it may deteriorate the drum and reduce print quality. 6HWWLQJ8S<RXU3ULQWHU ,QVWDOOLQJD 7RQHU&DUWULGJH 2 Distribute the toner in the cartridge. Hold the cartridge with both hands, and gently rock it from sideto-side five or six times to distribute the toner. 3 Remove the tape seal. Holding the cartridge in place with your left hand, use your right hand to grasp the tab on the right side of the toner cartridge. Grasp the clear plastic strip and pull it straight out. Discard the plastic strip. 4063ULQW6\VWHP*HWWLQJ6WDUWHG ,QVWDOOLQJD 7RQHU&DUWULGJH 4 Press the upper unit lock release button and open the top cover. 5 Slide the toner cartridge into the printer. Hold the grooved area on the toner cartridge with your right hand, then with the arrow on the toner cartridge facing away from you angle the cartridge down in the printer. Place the cartridge on the rails inside the upper unit of the printer, and gently slide it straight down until it’s firmly seated. 6 Close the printer’s top cover. 6HWWLQJ8S<RXU3ULQWHU /RDGLQJWKH 0HGLD&DVVHWWH /RDGLQJWKH0HGLD&DVVHWWH The QMS 2060 Print System comes standard with either a 500-sheet cassette or a 250-sheet universal cassette, depending on the model ordered. These trays are interchangeable and therefore can be either in the upper or optional lower position. Basically, loading media in either cassette involves the following steps: Prepare the paper Load the cassette Each of these steps is described in detail, later in this procedure. There is a section for loading a 500-sheet cassette, and one for loading a 250-sheet cassette. 3UHSDUHWKH3DSHU ▲ Caution: Ensure that the media size matches the cassette size (for example, letter/A4 media must be loaded only when the letter/A4 letter cassette is inserted or the universal cassette is set to letter/A4 size). Since the media cassette sends a media size signal to the printer controller, using a wrong size media will cause your image to be positioned incorrectly on the page or clipped. 1 Unwrap the paper, pull the stack out, and then with one hand at each end of the stack, lift and hold it in a curved position. Note: Paper is packed in reams of 500 sheets. Do not unpack the paper above the printer as this might cause particles to fall into the printer components. Note the arrows on the wrapper. They show which side of the paper should be on the top when it is loaded in the cassette. » 2 Grip each end of the stack firmly. 3 Straighten the stack, and then roll the fanned sheets from side to side to get air through the sheets and prevent static buildup. 4 Take off the top and bottom sheets The top and bottom sheets sometimes have residual glue buildup that could cause the printer to jam. 4063ULQW6\VWHP*HWWLQJ6WDUWHG Loading the Media Cassette Loading the 500-sheet Cassette Load media in the 500-sheet cassette as follows. For 250-sheet cassette instructions, see “Load the 250-sheet Cassette” on page 2-14. » Note: Reload media cassettes only when the printer is not actively printing. 1 Pull out and remove the cassette. Setting Up Your Printer 2-11 /RDGLQJWKH 0HGLD&DVVHWWH 2 Position the cassette. The cassette has a spring in the bottom that provides some resistance when print media is placed on it. Lay the cassette flat on a hard surface and, using your left hand, push down on the plate in the cassette until it locks. 3 Load media in the 500-sheet cassette in increments so that the 500 sheets fit in the cassette and the media stack is properly leveled out. Load the media so the front end of the stack comes against the front of the cassette in three steps as follows: a Up to the bottom limit mark. b Halfway to the top limit mark. 4063ULQW6\VWHP*HWWLQJ6WDUWHG /RDGLQJWKH 0HGLD&DVVHWWH c Up to the top limit mark. 7RS/LPLW 5HWDLQLQJ&OLSV %RWWRP/LPLW Note: See appendix B, “Technical Specifications,” the “Print Media” section, for media size feed edge information. » 4 Ensure that the media stack lies flat under the retaining clip and does not exceed the top limit mark. 5 Slide the cassette back into the upper cassette feeder until it’s firmly seated. 6HWWLQJ8S<RXU3ULQWHU Loading the Media Cassette 6 » Adjust the media tray to fit the media size. Note: When printing different-sized media, set the media tray to the largest paper size. If the media tray is set to a smaller paper size, large-size paper will curl, block the opening (when delivered to the output tray), and cause a media jam.
