Where to Put the Printer

The printer's location should be carefully chosen because environmental conditions greatly affect its performance.

Confirm the wall outlet is near the machine and freely accessible, so that in the event of emergency, it can be unplugged easily.

Only connect the machine to the power source described in the man- ual.

Avoid multi-wiring.

Do not damage, break or make any modifications to the power cord.

Do not place heavy objects on it, pull it hard or bend it more than necessary. These actions could cause an electric shock or fire.

The supplied power cord is for use with this equipment only. Do not use with other appliances. Doing so may result in fire, electric shock, or injury.

Do not handle the plug with wet hands. Doing so might cause an electrical shock.

Keep the machine in an area that is within optimum environmental condi- tions. Operating the machine in an environment that is outside the recommended ranges of humidity and temperature can cause an electrical fire hazard. Keep the area around the socket free of dust. Accumulated dust can become an electrical fire hazard.

Place the machine on a strong and level surface. Otherwise, it might fall and injure someone.

If you use the machine in a confined space, ensure there is continuous air circulation.

When Using IPP with SmartDeviceMonitor for Client

When using IPP with SmartDeviceMonitor for Client, note the following:

• The network printer can only receive one print job from SmartDeviceMonitor for Client at a time. While the network printer is printing, another user cannot access it until the job is finished. In this case, SmartDeviceMonitor for Client tries to access the network printer until the retry interval expires.

• If SmartDeviceMonitor for Client cannot access the network printer and times out, it will stop sending the print job. In this case, you should cancel the paused status from the print queue window. SmartDeviceMonitor for Client will resume access to the network printer. You can delete the print job from the print queue window, but canceling a print job printed by the network printer might cause the next job sent from another user to be incorrectly printed.

• If a print job sent from SmartDeviceMonitor for Client is interrupted and the network printer cancels the job because something went wrong, send the print job again.

• Print jobs sent from another computer do not appear in the print queue window, regardless of protocol.

• If various users send print jobs using SmartDeviceMonitor for Client to network printers, the printing order might not be the same as that in which the jobs were sent.

• An IP address cannot be used for the IPP port name because the IP address is used for the SmartDeviceMonitor for Client port name.

• When setting SSL, a protocol for encrypted communication, under environment which server authentification is issued, enter “https://(printer's address)/”. Internet Explorer must be installed on your computer. Use the highest version. Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher is recommended.

• If the [Security Alert] dialog box appears when accessing the printer using IPP to create or configure an IPP port, or when printing, install the certificate. To select the certificate store location when using Certificate Import Wizard, click

[Place all certificates in the following store], and then click [Local Computer] under

Appendix

Cautions to Take When Using in a network

Connecting a Dial-up Router to a Network

When the NetWare file server and printer are on opposite sides of a router, packets are sent back and forth, causing communication charges to be incurred. Because packet transmission is a specification of NetWare, you need to change the configuration of the router. If the network you are using does not allow you to configure the router, configure the printer instead.

Configuring the router

Filter packets so that they do not pass over the dial-up router.

❒ The MAC address of the printer doing the filtering is printed on the printer configuration page. For details about printing a configuration page, see p.128

“Printing a Configuration Page” .

❒ For details about configuring the printer if the router cannot be configured, see the instructions below.

Configuring the printer with NetWare

A

Configure the file server.

B

Set the frame type for a NetWare environment.

For details about selecting a frame type, see p.147 “Frame Type (NW)” .

Configuring the printer without NetWare

A

When not printing, the network interface board sends packets over the network. Set NetWare to “inactive”.

For details about selecting protocols, see p.147 “Active Protocol” .

Using DHCP

This printer can be used in a DHCP environment. In a WINS server environment, the printer name can simultaneously be registered with a WINS server.

Note the following points when an Ethernet interface and an IEEE 1394 (IP over

1394) interface are simultaneously installed.

279

Appendix

When static IP addresses are set for each interface

• IP address: When set at the same value, the Ethernet interface is preferred.

• Subnet mask: When a value overlaps, the Ethernet interface is preferred.

• Gateway address: The value set is used. For the gateway address, set the gateway address located in the subnetwork set by the interface. If the value is outside the subnet range set by the interface, it operates as “0.0.0.0”.

When each setting is acquired from the DHCP server

• IP address, subnet mask: Set for each value leased by the DHCP server operating on a connected interface. When overlapping IP addresses or identical IP addresses in the subnetwork are set, only the highest priority active value is set for the interface.

❒ The default priority interface is Ethernet.

• AutoNet: An automatic private address (169.254. xxx.xxx) is set for high priority interfaces.

❒ The default priority interface is IEEE 1394 (IP over 1394).

• Gateway address, DNS server address, domain name: Settings are made for DHCP-acquired values that have the highest interface priority.

If the gateway address is outside the subnetwork range set by the interface, it operates as “0.0.0.0”.

❒ The default priority interface is Ethernet.

When the settings of the static IP addresses and the DHCP acquired value overlap

• IP address, subnet mask: When the static IP address and DHCP-acquired value (IP address) are the same, or the static subnet mask value and

DHCP-acquired subnet mask value overlap, the interface set by the static

IP address is available using its value set. The interface set by DHCP is reset to the default.

• Gateway address: Use the manually set value.

• If a gateway address is set outside the interface subnetwork range, it operates as “0.0.0.0”.

❒ When the static IP address is not set, or is set as “0.0.0.0”, the interface setting the DHCP-acquired value is activated.

❒ Supported DHCP server operating systems are: Windows 2000 Server, Windows NT 4.0 Server Service Pack 4 or higher, NetWare, and UNIX standard.

280

Appendix

❒ The IP address acquired from DHCP can be checked on the configuration page. For information about printing a configuration page, see p.128 “Printing a Configuration Page” .

❒ When using WINS server, set the WINS server as shown on p.281 “Configuring the WINS Server” .

❒ Under the WINS server, host names can be used for remote network printer ports.

❒ If you are not using the WINS server, reserve the printer's IP address in the

DHCP server so the same IP address is assigned every time.

❒ When there are multiple DHCP servers, make the same reservation for all.

This printer uses information from the DHCP server that responds first.

❒ The DHCP relay-agent is not supported. If you are using the DHCP relayagent on an ISDN line network, expensive line charges will be incurred. This is because your computer connects to the ISDN line whenever a packet is transferred from the printer.

Using AutoNet

If the printer IP address is not assigned by a DHCP server automatically, a temporary IP address starting with 169.254, which is not used on the network, can be automatically selected by the printer.

You must change this setting to “on” to use AutoNet.

See p.183 “autonet” .

❒ The DHCP-assigned IP address has priority over that selected by AutoNet.

The printer reboots at this time, and is temporarily unable to print.

❒ You can check the current IP address on the configuration page. For details about printing a configuration page, see p.128 “Printing a Configuration

Page” .

❒ When AutoNet is running, the printer name is not registered on the WINS server.

❒ No communication can take place except between units started up using AutoNet. However, communication can take place with Macintosh computers running Mac OS X 10.2.3 or higher versions.

Configuring the WINS Server

The printer can be configured to register its NetBIOS name with a WINS server when the power is turned on. This enables the NetBIOS name of the printer to be specified from SmartDeviceMonitor for Admin even in a DHCP environment.

This section explains configuring the WINS server.

281

Appendix

❒ The WINS server is supported with Windows NT 4.0 Server Service Pack 4 or higher, and Windows 2000 Servers WINS Manager.

❒ For details about the WINS server settings, see Windows Help.

❒ If there is no reply from the WINS server, the NetBIOS name is registered by broadcast.

❒ The NetBIOS name can be entered using up to 13 alphanumeric characters.

Appendix

Using the Dynamic DNS Function

Dynamic DNS is a function which dynamically updates (registers and deletes) records (A record and PTR record) managed by the DNS server. When a DNS server is part of the network environment to which this printer, a DNS client, is connected, records can be dynamically updated using this function.

Updating

Updating procedure varies depending on whether the printer IP address is static or acquired by DHCP.

❒ When the dynamic DNS function is not used, records managed by the DNS server must be updated manually, if the printer's IP address is changed.

❒ To update the record using the printer, the DNS server has to have one of the following:

• No security settings made.

• If security settings are made, an IP-specified client (this printer) permits updating.

For a static IP setting

If the IP address or host name is changed, the A and PTR records are updated.

If the A record is registered, CNAME is also registered. CNAMEs that can be registered are as follows:

• Ethernet and IEEE 802.11b

RNPXXXXXX (XXXXXX represents the last 3 hexadecimal bytes of the

MAC address)

• IEEE 1394

RNPXXXXXXXXXX (XXXXXXXXXX represents the lower 3-7 bytes of the

MAC Address in hexadecimal)

For DHCP settings

As a substitute for the printer, the DHCP server updates the record, and one of the following occurs:

• When the printer acquires the IP address from the DHCP server, the DHCP server updates the A and PTR records.

• When the printer acquires the IP address from the DHCP server, the printer updates the A record, and the DHCP server updates the PTR record.

If the A record is registered, CNAME is also registered. CNAMEs that can be registered are as follows:

• Ethernet and IEEE 802.11b

RNPXXXXXX (XXXXXX represents the last 3 hexadecimal bytes of the

MAC address)

283

Appendix

• IEEE 1394

RNPXXXXXXXXXX (XXXXXXXXXX represents the lower 3-7 bytes of the

MAC Address in hexadecimal)

❒ Dynamic update using message authentication (TSIG, SIG(0)) is not supported.

DNS servers targeted for operation

For static IP setting

• Microsoft DNS servers with standard Windows 2000 Server/Windows

Server 2003 features

• BIND 8.2.3 or higher

For DHCP setup, when the printer updates the A record

• Microsoft DNS servers with standard Windows 2000 Server/Windows

Server 2003 features

• BIND 8.2.3 or higher

For DHCP setup, when the DHCP server updates records

• Microsoft DNS servers with standard Windows 2000 Server/Windows

Server 2003 features

• BIND 8.2.3 or higher

• DNS servers with standard NetWare 5 (or a higher version) features

DHCP servers targeted for operation

As a substitute for the printer, DHCP servers capable of updating the A record and PTR record are as follows:

• Microsoft DHCP servers with standard Windows 2000 Server (Service Pack

3 or higher versions)/Windows Server 2003 features

• ISC DHCP 3.0 or higher

• DHCP server with standard NetWare 5 features

Setting the dynamic DNS function

Make settings with telnet using the “dns” command. For details, see p.186 “dns” .

Paper Recommendations

Loading Paper

❒ Do not use ink-jet printer paper because it may stick to the fusing unit and cause a paper misfeed.

❒ Set the paper as described below

• Tray 1, Paper Feed Unit (Tray 2, Tray 3): Print side facing up

• Bypass Tray: Print side facing down

❒ Print quality cannot be guaranteed if paper other than the ones recommended is used. For more information about recommended paper, contact your sales or service representative.

❒ Do not use paper that has already been printed onto by other printers.

Storing Paper

• Paper should always be stored properly. Improperly stored paper might result in poor print quality, paper misfeeds, or printer damage. Recommendations are as follows:

• Avoid storing paper in humid areas.

• Avoid exposing paper to direct sunlight.

• Store on a flat surface.

• Keep paper in the package in which the paper came.

Additional cautions • Check the print side is facing down.

• Check there is no air in the envelopes before loading.

• For better print quality, we recommend the right, left, top, and bottom print margins to be at least 15 mm 0.6 inch.

• Load only one size and type of envelope at a time.

• Before loading envelopes, flatten their leading edges (the edge going into the printer) by running a pencil or ruler across them.

• Some kinds of envelope might cause misfeeds, wrinkles or print poorly.

• Print quality on envelopes may be uneven if parts of an envelope have differing thicknesses. Print one or two envelopes to check print quality.

• Use flat envelopes with no curl. If they have a curl, flatten them.

• Use completely flat envelopes that contain no air inside.

• Do not print on both sides of envelopes.

Replacing the Toner Cartridge

Do not incinerate spilled toner or used toner. Toner dust is flammable and might ignite when exposed to an open flame.

Disposal should take place at an authorized dealer or an appropriate collection site.

If you dispose of the used toner cartridges yourself, dispose of them according to local regulations.

Do not store toner, used toner, or toner containers in a place with an open flame. The toner might ignite and cause burns or a fire.

Keep toner (used or unused) and the toner cartridge out of reach of chil- dren.

If toner or used toner is inhaled, gargle with plenty of water and move into a fresh air environment. Consult a doctor if necessary.

If your skin comes into contact with toner or used toner, wash the affected area thoroughly with soap and water.

If toner or used toner gets into your eyes, flush immediately with large amounts of water. Consult a doctor if necessary.

If toner or used toner is swallowed, dilute by drinking a large amount of wa- ter. Consult a doctor if necessary.

Avoid getting toner on your clothes or skin when removing a paper jam or replacing toner. If your skin comes into contact with toner, wash the affected area thoroughly with soap and water.

If toner gets on your clothing, wash with cold water. Hot water will set the toner into the fabric and may make removing the stain impossible.

❒ When handling toner cartridges, never stand them up on either end or position them upside down.

❒ Store toner cartridges in a cool dark place.

❒ Actual printable numbers vary depending on image volume and density, number of pages printed at a time, paper type and size, and environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity. Toner quality degrades over time.

You may have to replace the toner cartridge prematurely. We recommend you prepare a new toner cartridge beforehand.

The color of the lit LED indicates the toner status for each color. A red light indicates the toner cartridge must be replaced.

Cleaning and Adjusting the Printer

Cautions to Take When Cleaning

Do not remove any covers or screws other than those specified in this manual. Some parts of the machine are at a high voltage and could give you an electric shock. Also, if the machine has laser systems, direct (or indirect) reflected eye contact with the laser beam may cause serious eye damage. When the machine needs to be checked, adjusted, or repaired, contact your service representative.

Do not take apart or attempt any modifications to this machine. There is a risk of fire, electric shock, explosion or loss of sight. If the machine has laser systems, there is a risk of serious eye damage.

When removing misfed paper, do not touch the fusing unit because it could be very hot.

Clean the printer periodically to maintain fine printing.

Dry wipe the exterior with a soft cloth. If dry wiping is not enough, wipe with a soft, wet cloth that is wrung out well. If you still cannot remove the stain or grime, use a neutral detergent, and then wipe over with a well-wrung wet cloth, dry wipe, and let it dry.

❒ To avoid deformation, discoloration, or cracking, do not use volatile chemicals, such as benzine and thinner, or spray insecticide on the printer.

❒ If there is dust or grime inside the printer, wipe with a clean, dry cloth.

❒ You must disconnect the plug from the wall outlet at least once a year. Clean away any dust and grime from the plug and outlet before reconnecting. Accumulated dust and grime pose a fire hazard.

Correcting the Color Gradation

Color gradation during color printing changes slightly, depending on a number of factors. If you print the same file repeatedly or toner was recently replaced, changes may occur in color tones. When this happens, to obtain suitable print results, color gradation can be corrected, although it is not usually necessary to make any particular settings.

❒ If suitable results cannot be obtained after a single operation, repeat the correction several times, as needed.

❒ Corrections to color gradation will be applied to all user jobs.

❒ Use the same paper when printing a run of gradation corrections. If a different type of paper is used, corrections may not be apparent.

❒ This requires the use of the supplied Color Calibration Sample Sheet.

❒ Corrections to color gradation are performed in the following order:

Set the Gradation Correction Value

During printing, you can correct the gradation in two areas: bright part (highlight) and the medium (middle). The correction value for the highlight and the medium parts are set using “Calibr.1” and “Calibr.2” respectively.

Disk] in the System Menu to 16 MB, value of the [RAM Disk] returns to 0 MB if the memory unit is removed. If this happens, reset the value of the [RAM Disk] to 2 MB or higher.

For [RAM Disk], see the “System Menu”, Software Guide.

When printing a PDF with a password set, set the password of the PDF file using the [PDF: Change PW] menu in [PDF Menu] or Web Image Monitor.

For [PDF: Change PW], see the “PDF Menu” , Software

Guide.

For Web Image Monitor, see Help.

PDF files not allowed to be printed by the PDF file security setting cannot be printed.

As a result of printing using PDF

Direct Printing, characters are missing or misshapen.

Before printing, embed the font in the PDF file to be printed.

The paper size appears on the control panel and printing is not performed with PDF Direct Print.

When using PDF Direct Print, printout requires paper set within the PDF file. When a message indicating a paper size appears, either place the indicated size in the paper tray, or perform Form Feed.

Also, if [Sub Paper Size] in the System Menu is set to [Auto], printing is performed assuming letter size and A4 size to be the same size. For example, When a PDF file set to A4 size paper is printed using PDF Direct Print and letter size paper is installed in the paper tray, the file will print out. This applies similarly to the opposite case.

If the problem cannot be solved, contact your sales or service representative.

Problems

Strange noise is heard.

Solutions

If a supply was recently replaced or an option attached in the area the strange noise is coming from, check the supply or option is properly attached. If the strange noise persists, contact your sales or service representative.

No e-mail is received when an

Alert occurs, and after resolving an Alert.

Confirm [Notify by Email] is [On] using the System Menu on the

Control Panel. See “System Menu”, Software Guide.

Access the printer through the Web browser, log on as an

Administrator on the Web Image Monitor, and then confirm the following settings in [E-mail Notification]:

• Device E-mail Address

• Groups to Notify

• Select Groups/Items to Notify

For details about the settings, see Web Image Monitor

Help.

Access the printer through the Web browser, log on as an

Administrator on the Web Image Monitor, and then confirm the settings of the SMTP server in [E-mail].

For details about the settings, see Web Image Monitor

Troubleshooting

Problems Solutions

Alert Resolving is set for sending e-mail, but no Alert-resolved e-mail is sent.

If the power of the main unit is turned off after an Alert occurs, the Alert is resolved during the time the power is off: no Alertresolved e-mail is sent.

Alert Occurrence and Alert Resolving are set for sending email, but while no Alert Occurrence mail is received, Alert-resolved e-mail is received.

Alert-notification e-mail is not sent if the problem is resolved before sending. However, an Alert-resolved e-mail is sent.

Alert-notification level was changed, and e-mail stopped arriving.

If an Alert-notification e-mail, set with the earlier notification level, arrives, later e-mail will not be sent, even if the notification level is changed after.

When no date information is included in sent e-mail, the mail server has a malfunction.

Make the setting for obtaining time information from the

SNTP server. Refer to the Web Image Monitor's Help to the settings.

Printing using Bluetooth is slow. When using the optional Bluetooth interface unit, do the following;

• Transmit fewer print jobs.

• Make sure no IEEE 802.11b (wireless LAN) or other Bluetooth devices are in use.

❒ Interference may occur with the IEEE 802.11b wireless LAN interface board. Such interference may affect the transmission speed and other functions.

• Transmissions between the client computer and the machine can be blocked by obstructions. Move the machine or client computer if necessary.

❒ When you use a Bluetooth connection, print jobs are transmitted relatively slowly.

If the machine is still not operating satisfactorily, contact your sales or service representative. Consult with the store where the printer was purchased for information about the location of sales or service representatives.

Removing Misfed Paper

Removing Misfed Paper

An error message appears if a paper misfeed occurs. The error message gives the location of the misfeed.

❒ Misfed paper may be covered in toner. Be careful not to get toner on your hands or clothes.

❒ Toner on prints made after removing misfed paper may be loose (inadequately fused). Make a few test prints until smudges no longer appear.

❒ Do not forcefully remove misfed paper, it will tear. Torn pieces remaining inside the printer will cause further misfeeds and possibly damage the printer.
