Features of This Machine


This machine is designed especially for office workgroups, both for shared us-
age within a network environment, and for one-to-one usage by being connected
directly to the computer.

❖ Standard compatibility with Windows 95/98/Me, Windows 2000 and Windows NT 4.0
As the printer drivers for the above operating systems are included, it is pos-
sible to print to the maximum capacity with the special features of this ma-
chine.

❖ Network Connectivity
This machine can be used as a network printer.
It can print from any environment as it supports at the same time NetWare
(TCP/IP, IPX/SPX), Windows 95/98/Me, (TCP/IP, NetBEUI), Windows
2000, (TCP/IP, NetBEUI), Windows NT 4.0 (TCP/IP, NetBEUI), UNIX (TCP/
IP), Macintosh (AppleTalk).
If you register the user code together with the client, you can manage the
amount of each printing job.

❖ Use the Network Utilities included at your own convenience.


When you use the network utilities “ SmartNetMonitor for Client ” and “
SmartNetMonitor for Admin ”, you can parallel print, allowing you to scatter
large amounts of print sets via multiple printers, or alternative print, which
allows you to use another printer when you can not access the network print-
er you are trying to use. Also, while at your workstation or desk, the machine
will notify you, when the print job has been completed.

❖ Complete Paper Handling Option


When connecting the booklet finisher (option), not only can you collate, but
also staple and punch.
Moreover, when connecting the mailbox (option), you can separate the desti-
nation of the printout together with the client.

❖ Using the Document Server


The document server is a function where sent files are stored in the memory
of the machine, and allows printing them later by configuring their condi-
tions. As you can assign a password to each file, even when this machine is
used as a network printer, you are provided with a high level sense of securi-
ty. Also, you can make combined prints with files scanned by machine.

Protocol TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, NetBEUI *2 , AppleTalk
*1
Under Windows NT 4.0, only × 86 CPU is supported.
*2
Under Windows 95/98/Me, Windows 2000 and Windows NT 4.0 only. Only for
Peer-Peer Printing.
In a mixed network environment, the protocol switches automatically.
Reference
For more information about network connection settings, see “User Tools (Sys-
tem Settings)” in the System Settings.
Note
❒ Consult your network administrator before connecting the machine to a net-
work.
❒ Make sure to use a properly shielded and grounded cable (STP, Category/
Type5) for the connection to the host computer (and/or HUB) in order to
meet FCC and EMC Directive 89/336/EEC emission guidelines.

Parallel cable requirements


Connect the machine to the host computer using a parallel port. This machine
does not provide the parallel cable to connect the machine to the host computer.
The machine's parallel interface is a standard bidirectional interface. It requires
a standard 36-pin parallel cable compliant with IEEE 1284 and a parallel port
available on the host computer.
Note
❒ Do not use a parallel cable that is longer than 3 meters (10 feet).

Connecting the Network Cable to the Network


A Turn off the main power switch.
B Loop the network cable and attach the ferrite core. 1
Note
❒ The network cable loop should be about 15 cm (6") (A) from the end of the
cable (on the end closer to the machine). The ferrite core at the end of the
cable should be a ring type ferrite core.

C Attach the network cable to the jack on the board.

Follow these steps to connect the machine to the host computer.

A Turn off the main power switch.


B Plug the 36-pin end of the parallel cable into the parallel port at the left side
of the back cover of the machine.
Reference
See P.9 “Connecting the Machine” to check the position of the parallel port.

C Squeeze the wire clips on each side of the connector together until they
snap into place. The clips hold the cable securely in place.

D Plug the other end of the parallel cable into the computer's parallel port.

B Connect the other end of the IEEE 1394 Interface cable to the computer or
the other IEEE 1394 node.
Note
❒ The IEEE 1394 interface unit cannot receive data from more than one PC at the
same time. The machine can accept data sent from other PCs, after the first
print job has finished.
❒ The bidirectional transmissions are not supported by the IEEE 1394 interface
unit.
❒ When the IEEE 1394 interface unit is installed successfully, the machine icon
automatically changes from “Use Printer Offline” to “ Ready ”, according to
the IEEE 1394 interface cable plug. See Help for more information on the IEEE
1394 interace unit.
❒ After installing the last option that you want, print a configuration page to
make sure the installation has been correctly performed. If the new device is
listed in the column of configuration options, then it has been properly in-
stalled. For more information about printing a configuration page, see “Print-
er Features Parameters” in the Printer Reference 2.

Installing the Printer Driver and Software

Important
❒ Before starting this installation, close all documents and applications. In a net-
work environment, make sure that users who are logged on are disconnected.
Make sure to do this so as to create the least interference with other users.
❒ After installing a printer driver, you must restart the computer.
Note
2 ❒ If “plug and play” is started, click [Cancel] in the [New Hardware Found], [Device
Driver Wizard] or [Found New Hardware Wizard] dialog box, and then insert the
CD-ROM. The [New Hardware Found], [Device Driver Wizard] or [Found New Hard-
ware Wizard] dialog box appears depending on the system version of the Win-
dows 95/98/Me or Windows 2000.
❒ The appropriate language name is used on the CD-ROM folder: ENGLISH
(English), DEUTSCH (German), FRANCAIS (French), ITALIANO (Italian),
ESPANOL (Spanish), NEDRLNDS (Dutch), NORSK (Norwegian), DANSK
(Danish), SVENSKA (Swedish), POLSKI (Polish), PORTUGUS (Portuguese),
SUOMI (Finnish), MAGYAR (Hungarian), CESKY (Czech)

❖ User Codes
User Codes are eight digit codes that allow you to keep track of printing done
under each code. To use this feature, the network administrator should assign
User Codes and inform users of them before they install the printer driver.

- Using the Shared Printer on Windows 2000 or Windows NT 4.0 for


Windows 95/98/Me Client
If you want to share the machine on Windows 2000 or Windows NT 4.0, install
the printer driver of Windows 95/98/Me for an alternate driver.
Note
