PAPER RECOMMENDATIONS Your printer will handle a variety of print media, including a range of paper weights and sizes, transparencies and envelopes. This section provides general advice on choice of media, and explains how to use each type. The best performance will be obtained when using standard 75~90g/m² paper designed for use in copiers and laser printers. Suitable types are: • Arjo Wiggins Conqueror Colour Solutions 90g/m²; • Colour Copy by Neusiedler.
CASSETTE TRAYS SIZE DIMENSIONS A6 (Tray 1 only) 105 x 148mm A5 148 x 210mm B5 182 x 257mm Executive 184.2 x 266.7mm A4 210 x 297mm Letter 215.9 x 279.4mm Legal 13in. 216 x 330mm Legal 13.5in. 216 x 343mm Legal 14in.
FACE DOWN STACKER The face down stacker on the top of the printer can hold up to 250 sheets of 80g/m² standard paper, and can handle paper stocks up to 176g/m². Pages printed in reading order (page 1 first) will be sorted in reading order (last page on top, facing down). FACE UP STACKER The face up stacker at the rear of the printer should be opened and the tray extension pulled out when required for use. In this condition paper will exit via this path, regardless of driver settings.
LOADING PAPER CASSETTE TRAYS 1. Remove the paper tray from the printer. 2. Fan the paper to be loaded at the edges (1) and in the middle (2) to ensure that all sheets are properly separated, then tap the edges of the stack on a flat surface to make it flush again (3).
3. Load letter headed paper face down and top edge towards the front of the printer, as shown. 1 4. 2 Adjust the rear stopper (1) and paper guides (2) to the size of paper being used. To prevent paper jams: 5. • Do not leave space between the paper and the guides and rear stopper. • Do not overfill the paper tray. Capacity depends on the type of paper stock. • Do not load damaged paper. • Do not load paper of different sizes or types at the same time.
6. For face down printing, make sure the face up (rear) stacker (3) is closed (the paper exits from the top of the printer). Stacking capacity is approximately 250 sheets, depending on paper weight. 7. For face up printing, make sure the face up (rear) stacker (3) is open and the paper support (4) is extended. Paper is stacked in reverse order and tray capacity is approximately 100 sheets, depending on paper weight. 8. Always use the face up (rear) stacker for heavy paper (card stock etc.).
MULTI PURPOSE TRAY 1. Open the multi purpose tray and press gently down on the paper platform (1) to ensure it is latched down. 1 3 2 2. 3. Load the paper and adjust the paper guides (2) to the size of paper being used. • For single-sided printing on headed paper load the paper into the multi purpose tray with pre-printed side up and top edge into the printer. • For two-sided (duplex) printing on headed paper load the paper with pre-printed side down and top edge away from the printer.
PRINTER SETTINGS IN WINDOWS Your printer’s operator panel menus provide access to many options. The Windows printer driver also contains settings for many of these items. Where items in the printer driver are the same as those in the operator panel menus, and you print documents from Windows, the settings in the Windows printer driver will override those items in the operator panel menus. The illustrations in this chapter show Windows XP.
SETUP TAB When you click the Properties button from your application’s Print dialogue, the driver window opens to allow you to specify your printing preferences for the current document. 1. 1 2 3 4 Paper size should be the 5 same as the page size of 6 your document (unless you wish to scale the printout to fit another size), and should also be the same as the size of paper you will feed into the printer. 7 2.
JOB OPTIONS TAB 3 4 1 5 2 7 8 1. The output resolution of the printed page can be set as follows. • The highest quality setting prints at 1200 x 600dpi. This option requires the most printer memory and takes the longest to print. • The normal setting prints at 600 x 600dpi and is adequate for all but the most discerning applications. • The draft setting prints at 300 x 300dpi and is suitable for draft documents, where print quality is less critical. 2.
COLOUR TAB 1 2 4 3 5 1. Control over the colour output of your printer may be performed automatically, or for advanced control, by manual adjustment. The automatic setting will be appropriate in most cases. The other options in this window only become visible when you select a choice other than Auto. For greyscale printing, the printer runs at 24ppm and all pages are printed in black and white. 2. You can choose from a range of colour matching options, depending on the image source for your document.
SETTING FROM WINDOWS CONTROL PANEL When you open the driver properties window directly from Windows, rather than from within an application program, a somewhat more extensive range of settings is provided. Changes made here will generally affect all documents you print from Windows applications, and will be remembered from one Windows session to the next. GENERAL TAB 1 2 3 1. This area lists some of the main features of your printer, including optional items, such as duplex (two-sided) printing. 2.
ADVANCED TAB 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 12 11 1. You can specify which times of day your printer will be available. 2. Indicates current priority, from 1 (lowest) to 99 (highest). Highest priority documents will print first. 3. Specifies that documents should be spooled (stored in a special print file) before being printed. The document is then printed in the background, allowing your application program to become available more quickly. 4.
7. Directs the spooler to check the document setup and match it to the printer setup before sending the document to print. If a mismatch is detected, the document is held in the print queue and does not print until the printer setup is changed and the document restarted from the print queue. Mismatched documents in the queue will not prevent correctly matched documents from printing. 8.
DEVICE OPTIONS TAB In this window you can select which optional upgrades are installed on your printer. This is covered in more detail in the section in this guide about installing upgrades.
COLOUR PRINTING The printer drivers supplied with your printer provide several controls for changing the colour output. For general use the automatic settings will suffice, providing reasonable default settings that will produce good results for most documents. Many applications have their own colour settings, and these may override the settings in the printer driver. Please refer to the documentation for your software application for details on how that particular program’s colour management functions.
Viewing conditions A print can look very different under different lighting conditions. For example, the colours in a print may look different when viewed standing next to a sunlit window, compared to how they look under standard office fluorescent lighting. Printer driver colour settings The driver settings for manual colour can change the appearance of a print. There are several options available to help match the printed colours with those displayed on screen.
TIPS FOR PRINTING IN COLOUR The following guidelines may help you to achieve good colour output from your printer. PRINTING PHOTOGRAPHIC IMAGES Use the Monitor (6500k) Perceptual setting. If the colours look too dull, try the Monitor (6500k) Vivid or Digital Camera settings. PRINTING FROM OFFICE APPLICATIONS Use the Monitor (9300k) setting. This may help if you are having problems with specific colours from applications such as Microsoft Excel or Microsoft PowerPoint. PRINTING SPECIFIC COLOURS (E.G.
ACCESSING THE COLOUR MATCHING OPTIONS The colour matching options in the printer driver can be used to help match your printed colours to the ones displayed on your monitor or from some other source, such as a digital camera. To open colour matching options from the Windows Control Panel: 1. Open the Printers window (called “Printers and Faxes” in Windows XP). 2. Right-click the printer name and choose Properties. 3. Click the Printing Preferences button (1).
2. Choose the Manual colour setting and select from the following options: 1 b c d a 2 e (a) Monitor (6500k) Perceptual Optimised for printing photographs. Colours are printed with emphasis on saturation. (b) Monitor (6500k) Vivid Optimised for printing photographs, but with even more saturated colours than the Monitor (6500k) Perceptual setting. (c) Monitor (9300k) Optimised for printing graphics from applications such as Microsoft Office. Colours are printed with emphasis on Lightness.
USING THE COLOUR SWATCH FEATURE To use the Colour Swatch feature, you must install the Colour Swatch Utility. This is supplied on the CD-ROM that was supplied with your printer. The Colour Swatch function prints charts which contain a range of sample colours. Note that this is not the full range of colours that the printer can produce. Listed on each sample colour are the corresponding RGB (Red, Green, Blue) values.
USING THE COLOUR CORRECT UTILITY The Oki Colour Correct Utility is provided on your printer driver CD-ROM. You must install it separately since it is not installed along with the printer driver. The Colour Correct utility has the following features: > Microsoft Office palette colours can be individually adjusted. This is useful if you want to change how a specific colour is printed. > Colours can be adjusted by changing Hue, Saturation and Gamma.
MENU FUNCTIONS This section lists the menus accessed via the controls on the printer’s operator panel and displayed in the LCD window. It should be noted that many of these settings can be, and often are, overridden by settings in the Windows printer drivers.

REPLACING CONSUMABLE ITEMS This section explains how to replace consumable items when due. As a guide, the life expectancy of these items is: > Toner — 1,500 (standard capacity) or 3,000 (high capacity) A4 pages at 5% coverage, which means that 5% of the addressable print area is printed with this colour. Toner life is directly affected by coverage, e.g. at 10% coverage there is sufficient toner for 750 pages (standard capacity) or 1,500 pages (high capacity), conversely at 2.
CONSUMABLE ORDER DETAILS ITEM LIFE ORDER NO.
TONER CARTRIDGE REPLACEMENT CAUTION! To avoid toner wastage and possible toner sensor errors, do not change the toner cartridge(s) until “TONER EMPTY” is displayed. The toner used in this printer is a very fine dry powder. It is contained in four cartridges: one each for cyan, magenta, yellow and black. Have a sheet of paper handy so that you have somewhere to place the used cartridge while you install the new one. Dispose of the old cartridge responsibly, inside the pack that the new one came in.
1. Press the cover release and open the printer’s top cover fully. WARNING! If the printer has been powered on, the fuser may be hot. This area is clearly labelled. Do not touch. 2. Note the positions of the four cartridges. 1 2 3 4 1. Cyan cartridge 2. Magenta cartridge 3. Yellow cartridge 4.
3. Carry out one of the following: (a) If you are replacing a toner cartridge that has been supplied with your printer (lever has 3 positions), pull the coloured toner release lever on the cartridge to be replaced towards the front of the printer, in the direction of the arrow, but stop at the central (upright) position (1).
4. Lift the right-hand end of the cartridge and then draw the cartridge to the right to release the left-hand end as shown, and withdraw the toner cartridge out of the printer. 1 2 5. Put the cartridge down gently onto a piece of paper to prevent toner from marking your furniture. CAUTION! The green image drum surface is very delicate and light sensitive. Do not touch it and do not expose it to normal room light for more than 5 minutes.
7. Gently shake the new cartridge from end to end several times to loosen and distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge. 8. Remove the wrapping material and peel off the adhesive tape from the underside of the cartridge. 9. Holding the cartridge by its top centre with the coloured lever to the right, lower it into the printer over the image drum unit from which the old cartridge was removed. 10.
11. Pressing gently down on the cartridge to ensure that it is firmly seated, push the coloured lever (1) towards the rear of the printer. This will lock the cartridge into place and release toner into the image drum unit. 1 12. Finally, close the top cover and press down firmly at both sides so that the cover latches closed.

Gently wipe the LED head surface with LED lens cleaner or soft tissue. CAUTION! Do not use methyl alcohol or other solvents on the LED head as damage to the lens surface will occur. 3. Close the top cover.
INSTALLING UPGRADES This section explains how to install optional equipment into your printer. This includes: • duplex (two-sided printing) unit; • additional RAM memory. DUPLEX UNIT The duplex unit adds the function of two-sided printing, using less paper and making large documents easier to handle. It also enables booklet printing, which uses even less paper and makes large documents even easier to handle. The duplex unit slides straight into the rear of the printer and requires no tools to install.
4. 5. Print a menu map as follows: (a) Press the + button to access the Information Menu. (b) Press ENTER once for the menu map. (c) Press ENTER again to print the menu map. (d) When the menu map is printed, press ON LINE to exit the menu system. Examine the first page of the menu map. Near the top of the page, between the two horizontal lines, you will see the current printer configuration. This list should indicate that the duplex unit is now installed.
MEMORY UPGRADE The basic printer model comes equipped with 32MB of main memory. This can be upgraded with an additional memory board containing 64MB or 256MB, giving a maximum total memory capacity of 288MB. Installation takes a few minutes, and requires a medium size cross-head (philips type) screwdriver. 1. Switch the printer off and disconnect the AC power cable. 2. Press the cover release and open the printer’s top cover fully.
6. Carefully remove the new memory board from its wrapping. Try to handle the board only by its short edges, avoiding contact with any metal parts as far as possible. In particular, avoid touching the edge connector. 7. Notice that the memory board has a small cutout in the edge connector, which is closer to one end than the other. 8. Identify the RAM expansion slot (1) in the printer. 2 1 2 9.
10. Hold the new memory board by its short edges, so that the edge connector faces in towards the RAM expansion slot, and the small cutout is closer to the bottom of the printer. 11. Gently push the board into the RAM expansion slot until it latches in and will not go any further. 12. Locate the three retaining clips at the bottom of the side cover into their rectangular holes near the bottom of the printer. 13.
ADJUSTING WINDOWS PRINTER DRIVERS Once your new upgrade has been installed, you may need to update the Windows printer driver so that the additional features are available to your Windows applications. Remember that if your printer is shared between users on different computers, the driver must be adjusted on each user’s machine. The illustrations shown here are for Windows XP. Other Windows versions may appear slightly different, but the principles are the same.
CLEARING PAPER JAMS Provided that you follow the recommendations in this guide on use of print media, and you keep the media in good condition prior to use, your printer should give years of reliable service. However, paper jams occasionally do occur, and this section explains how to clear them quickly and simply. Jams can occur due to paper misfeeding from a paper tray or at any point on the paper path through the printer.
3. Note the positions of the four cartridges. 1 2 3 1 4 2 3 4 1. Cyan cartridge 2. Magenta cartridge 3. Yellow cartridge 4. Black cartridge It will be necessary to remove the four image drums to gain access to the paper path. 4. Holding it by its top centre, lift the image drum, complete with its toner cartridge, up and out of the printer.
5. Put the cartridge down gently onto a piece of paper to prevent toner from marking your furniture and to avoid damaging the green drum surface. CAUTION! The green image drum surface at the base of the cartridge is very delicate and light sensitive. Do not touch it and do not expose it to normal room light for more than 5 minutes. 6. Repeat this removal procedure for each of the four image drum units. 7.
• To remove a sheet from the central area of the belt (2), carefully separate the sheet from the belt surface and withdraw the sheet. 4 3 2 1 • To remove a sheet just entering the fuser (3), separate the trailing edge of the sheet from the belt, push the fuser pressure release lever (4) towards the front and down to release the fuser’s grip on the sheet, and withdraw the sheet through the drum cavity area. Then allow the pressure release lever to rise again.
8. Starting with the cyan image drum unit nearest the fuser, replace the four image drums back into the drum cavity, making sure to locate them in the correct order. 1 2 3 1 4 2 3 4 • 1. Cyan cartridge 2. Magenta cartridge 3. Yellow cartridge 4. Black cartridge Holding the complete assembly by its top centre, lower it into place in the printer, locating the pegs at each end into their slots in the sides of the printer cavity.
9. Lower the top cover down but do not press down to latch it closed yet. This will protect the drums from excessive exposure to room lighting while you check the remaining areas for jammed sheets. 10. Open the rear exit tray (5) and check for a sheet of paper in the rear path area (6). 6 5 • Pull out any sheets found in this area. • If the sheet is low down in this area and difficult to remove, it is probably still gripped by the fuser.
12. If your printer has a duplex unit installed, press the cover release at the centre of the unit, open the cover and remove any sheets in this area, then close the cover. 13. Lift the front cover release and pull open the front cover.
14. Check inside the cover for sheets in this area and remove any that you find, then close the cover. 15. Pull out the paper tray in use when the jam occurred and ensure that all paper is stacked properly, is undamaged, and that the paper guides are properly positioned against the edges of the paper stack. When satisfied, replace the tray. 16. Finally, close the top cover and press down firmly at both sides so that the cover latches closed.
