Frequently Asked Questions - C5300n OKI

How do I install the toner cartridges in the OKI C5300n?

Open the front cover. Remove the toner cartridge from its bag, shake it gently to redistribute toner. Insert the cartridge into the corresponding color slot (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black) until it clicks. Close the cover.

What should I do if there is a paper jam?

Turn off the printer. Open all covers: front, rear, and duplex unit. Gently remove any jammed paper. Check the paper tray and guides. Close all covers and turn the printer back on.

How can I connect the printer to my network?

Connect an Ethernet cable from the printer's LAN port to your router. On the printer control panel, go to Network Settings and assign an IP address (or use DHCP). Install the OKI driver on your computer and select network printer.

How do I replace the image drum?

Turn off the printer and open the top cover. Remove the four toner cartridges. Lift the drum unit out using the handles. Insert the new drum unit (aligning rails) and reinstall the toners. Close the cover.

Why is my printer printing blank pages?

Check if the toner cartridges are installed and not empty. Run a test print from the menu. Ensure the fuser is warm. If the problem persists, try cleaning the LED head with a soft cloth.

How do I clean the LED head?

Turn off the printer and open the top cover. Remove the toner cartridges. Locate the LED head bar (above the drum). Gently wipe it with a lint-free cloth lightly moistened with water. Let dry, then reinstall.

1. Output stacker, face down. Standard printed copy delivery point. Holds up to 250 sheets at 80g/m².

2. Operator panel. Menu driven operator controls and LCD display panel.

3. Paper tray. Standard blank paper tray. Holds up to 300 sheets of 80g/m^2 paper.

4. Multipurpose feeder. Used for feeding heavier paper stocks, envelopes and other special media. Also for manual feeding of single sheets when required.

5. ON/OFF switch.

The LCD display language can be changed to show any of 12 different languages. (See “Changing the display language” on page 12.)

REAR VIEW

This view shows the connection panel, the rear output stacker and the location of the optional duplex (two-sided printing) unit.

6. Location of optional duplex unit.
7. Rear, face up, 100 sheet stacker.

* The Network Interface has a protective "plug" which must be removed before connection can be made.

When the rear paper stacker is folded down paper exits the printer through the rear of the printer and is stacked here face up. This is mainly used for heavy print media. When used in conjunction with the multipurpose feed tray, the paper path through the printer is essentially straight. This avoids bending the paper around curves in the paper path and enables feeding of up to 203g/m^2 media.

CHANGING THE DISPLAY LANGUAGE

The language used by your printer for display messages and for report printing can be changed quickly and easily as follows:

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/m ^2 paper designed for use in copiers and laser printers. Suitable types are:

Ajro Wiggins Colour Solutions 90g/m²;
Colour Copy by Neuisedlier.

Use of heavily embossed or very rough textured paper is not recommended.

Pre-printed stationery can be used, but the ink must not offset when exposed to the high fuser temperatures used in the printing process.

Envelopes should be free from twist, curl or other deformations. They should also be of the rectangular flap type, with glue that remains intact when subjected to hot roll pressure fusing used in this type of printer. Window envelopes are not suitable.

Transparencies should be of the type designed for use in copiers and laser printers. We strongly recommend Oki transparencies (Order No. 01074101). In particular, avoid office transparencies designed for use by hand with marker pens. These will melt in the fuser and cause damage.

Labels should also be of the type recommended for use in copiers and laser printers, in which the base carrier page is entirely covered by labels. Other types of label stock may damage the printer due to the labels peeling off during the printing process. Suitable types are:

Avery White Laser Label types 7162, 7664, 7666 (A4), or 5161 (Letter);
Kokuyo A693X series (A4) or A650 (B5).

CASSETTE TRAYS

Size Dimensions Weight (g/m²)

A6 (Tray 1 only) 105 x 148mm
A5 148 x 210mm
B5 182 x 257mm	Light 64-74g/m2
Executive 184.2 x 266.7mm	Medium 75-90g/m2
A4 210 x 297mm	Heavy 91-120g/m2
Letter 215.9 x 279.4mm	Ultra heavy 121-176g/m2(Tray 2 only)
Legal 13in. 216 x 330mm
Legal 13.5in. 216 x 343mm
Legal 14in. 216 x 356mm

If you have identical paper stock loaded in another tray (2nd tray if you have one, or multipurpose tray) you can have the printer automatically switch to the other tray when the current tray runs out of paper. When printing from Windows applications, this function is enabled in the driver settings. (See “Printer Settings in Windows” later in this guide.) When printing from other systems, this function is enabled in the Print Menu. (See “Menu Functions” later in this guide.)

MULTIPURPOSE TRAY

The multipurpose tray can handle the same sizes as the cassette trays but in weights up to 203 g/m^2 . For very heavy paper stock use the face up (rear) paper stacker. This ensures that the paper path through the printer is almost straight.

The multipurpose tray can feed paper widths as small as 100mm and lengths up to 1200mm (banner printing).

For paper lengths exceeding 356mm (Legal 14in.) use paper stock between 90g/m ^2 and 128g/m ^2 and the face up (rear) paper stacker.

Use the multipurpose tray for printing on envelopes and transparencies. Up to 50 sheets of transparencies or 10 envelopes can be loaded at one time, subject to a maximum stacking depth of 10mm.

Paper or transparencies should be loaded print side up and top edge into the printer. Do not use the duplex (two sided printing) function.

FACE DOWN STACKER

The face down stacker on the top of the printer can hold up to 250 sheets of 80g/m^2 standard paper, and can handle paper stocks up to 176g/m^2 . 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.

The face up stacker can hold up to 100 sheets of 80g/m^2 standard paper, and can handle stocks up to 203g/m^2 .

Always use this stacker and the multipurpose feeder for paper stocks heavier than 176 g/m^2 .

DUPLEX UNIT

This option provides automatic two sided printing on the same range of paper sizes as tray 2 (i.e. all cassette sizes except A6), using paper stocks from 75-105g/m ^4 .

LOADING PAPER

CASSETTE TRAYS

1. Remove the paper tray from the printer.

Illustration of a printer with a pink plastic tray and control panel, showing no text or symbols.

1. 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).

1 2 3

1. Load letter headed paper face down and top edge towards the front of the printer, as shown.

1 2

1. Adjust the rear stopper (1) and paper guides (2) to the size of paper being used.

To prevent paper jams:

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.
Do not pull the paper tray out during printing (except as described below for the 2nd tray).

Close the paper tray gently.

1. If you have two trays and you are printing from the 1st (upper) tray, you can pull out the 2nd (lower) tray during printing to reload it. However, if printing from the 2nd (lower) tray, do not pull out the 1st (upper) tray. This will cause a paper jam.

2. 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.

3. 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.
4. Always use the face up (rear) stacker for heavy paper (card stock etc.)

CAUTION!

Do not open or close the rear paper exit while printing as it may result in a paper jam.

MULTIPURPOSE TRAY

1. Open the multi purpose tray and press gently down on the paper platform (1) to ensure it is latched down.

Technical diagram of a printer with labeled parts including control panel, drive, and paper holder

1. 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 multipurpose 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. (Optional duplex unit must be installed for this function.)
Envelopes should be loaded face up with top edge to the left and short edge into the printer. Do not select duplex printing on envelopes.
Do not exceed the paper capacity of about 50 sheets or 10 envelopes. Maximum stacking depth is 10mm.

1. Press the tray latch button (3) inwards to release the paper platform, so that the paper is lifted and gripped in place.

Set the correct paper size for the multipurpose tray in the Media Menu (see “Menu Functions”).

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. Windows 2000 versions may appear slightly different, but the principles are the same.

PCL OR POSTSCRIPT

Two printer drivers are supplied with your printer: one for PCL emulation, and the other for PostScript 3 emulation. If you print mainly from general “Office” applications choose the PCL driver. For faster printing of PDF documents, choose PostScript. If you print mainly from professional DTP and graphics applications, choose PostScript.

PRINTING PREFERENCES IN WINDOWS APPLICATIONS

When you choose to print your document from a Windows application program a print dialogue box appears. This dialogue usually specifies the name of the printer on which you will print your document. Next to the printer name is a Properties button.

Print Name: Printer Name Properties Status: Idle Types: Where: Comment: Print to Page Page range ✓ All ○ Current page ○ Selection ○ Pages: Enter page numbers and/or page ranges separated by commas. For example, 1,3,5-12 Copies: Number of copies: 1 ✓ Collage Print gbit: Document Print: All pages in range Zoom: Pages per sheet: 1 page Scale to paper size: No Scaling Options... OK Close

When you click Properties a new window opens which contains a short list of the printer settings available in the driver, which you can choose for this document.

The window which opens when you click Properties depends on which printer driver has been installed. The PostScript driver offers different choices to the PCL driver.

POSTSCRIPT EMULATION

1. Page orientation sets portrait (tall) or landscape (wide) page orientation. The “rotated” rotates the paper through 90 degrees anticlockwise.

Printing Preferences Layout | Paper/Quality | Job Options | Color | Overlay Orientation ● Portrait ○ Landscape ○ Rotated Landscape Past on Both Sides ○ None ○ Flip on Long Edge ○ Flip on Short Edge Page Order ● Front to Back ○ Back to Front Pages Per Sheet: 1 Advanced OK Cancel Apply

1. When printing double sided pages (duplex unit required). You can flip the paper either on its long edge or short edge.

2. Pages can be printed in forward or reverse order. If using the face down (top) paper stacker, forward order is usually appropriate to ensure that pages are stacked in numerical order. If using the face up (rear) paper stacker, reverse order would normally stack your pages in numerical order.

3. You can specify how many pages to print on a sheet. Pages will be scaled to fit the number you choose. If you choose booklet printing (requires duplex unit) two pages will automatically be set, and pages will be printed with the correct pages opposite one another so that folding the stacked printout produces a booklet.
4. Advanced options are also available, such as how to download TrueType fonts, and whether advanced options such as booklet printing are available.

The printer driver contains extensive on-line help for these items to help you make the most appropriate choices.

PCL EMULATION

When you click theProperties button from your application's Print dialogue, the driver window opens to allow you to specify your printing preferences for this document.

1. Paper size should be the same as the page size of 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.

Printing Defaults SPM0 Job Options Color Media Size: A4 210 x 257mm Source: Automatically Select Paper Feed Options Finishing Mode Standard / N-up Options Driver Settings Default Add... OK Cancel Apply Help A4 210 x 257mm Default

1. You can choose the source of the paper to feed, which may be Tray 1 (the standard paper tray), Tray 2 (if you have the optional 2nd paper tray installed) or the multipurpose feeder. You can also click on the appropriate part of the screen graphic to select your preferred tray.

2. A variety of document finishing options can be selected, such as normal one page per sheet, or N-up (where N can be any number up to 16) for printing scaled down pages at more than one page per sheet. Booklet printing prints two pages per sheet on each side of the paper so that when folded they make up a booklet. Booklet printing requires the duplex unit to be installed in your printer.

Poster printing will print large pages as tiles spread over multiple sheets.

1. For two sided printing, you can choose to flip the page by the long edge or the short edge. Of course, this requires that a duplex unit be installed in your printer.

2. If you have changed some printing preferences before and saved them as a set, you can recall them to avoid having to set them individually each time you need them.

3. A single on-screen button restores the default settings.

SECURE PRINTING FEATURE

With this feature you can send confidential documents to print and have them stored in the printer until you are ready to print them. Documents sent in this way are protected by a PIN (personal identification number), which must be entered before they will print. This is useful when you need to print confidential documents on a printer which is shared with, or accessible to, other people.

NOTE

This feature requires the optional internal hard disk.

SENDING THE DOCUMENT TO PRINT

1. From your application's Print dialogue, select your printing choices in the normal way, and then click the Properties button.
2. In the driver window, on the Job Options tab and select Secure Print (1).
3. From your application's Print dialogue, select your printing choices in the normal way, and then click the Properties button.
4. In the driver window, on the Job Options tab and select Secure Print (1).

WINDOWS 9X DIFFERENCES

Screen presentations of Windows 9x, together with some procedures, are significantly different than other versions of Windows (2000/XP etc.). This Chapter deals mainly with these variations. If necessary, reference should be made to the relevant subject or online help for more information.

PRINTER SETTINGS IN WINDOWS

PCL OR POSTSCRIPT

Two printer drivers are supplied with your printer: one for PCL emulation, and the other for PostScript 3 emulation. If you print mainly from general “Office” applications choose the PCL driver. For faster printing of PDF documents, choose PostScript. Also choose PostScript if you print mainly from professional DTP and graphics applications.

NOTE

With both drivers - if optional accessories such as a Hard Disk or Duplex unit are fitted, ensure that they are enabled in the Start/Settings/Printers/Properties/Device options dialogue.

PRINTING PREFERENCES IN WINDOWS APPLICATIONS

When you choose to print your document from a Windows application program a print dialogue box appears. This dialogue usually specifies the name of the printer on which you will print your document. Next to the printer name is a Properties button.

Print Printer Name: YOUR PRINTER Status: Default printer: Ready Type: Whole: LP11. Comment: Properties Print range All Pages item: 1 to 2 Copies Number of copies: 1 1 2 3 4 Cylate OK Cancel

When you click Properties a new window opens which contains a short list of the printer settings available in the driver, which you can choose for this document.

The window which opens when you click Properties depends on which printer driver has been installed. The PostScript driver offers different choices to the PCL driver.

PostScript Emulation

1. Paper size should be the same as the page size of 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.
2. You can specify how many pages to print on a sheet. Pages will be scaled to fit the number you choose.
3. Page orientation sets portrait (tall) or landscape (wide) page orientation. Rotated turns the paper through 90 degrees anticlockwise.
4. By selecting the More Options Tab you can flip the paper either on its long edge or short edge when printing double sided pages (duplex unit required).

The printer driver contains extensive online help for these items to help you make the most appropriate choices.

1. A variety of document finishing options can be selected, such as normal one page per sheet, or N-up (where N can be any number up to 16) for printing scaled down pages at more than one page per sheet. Booklet printing prints two pages per sheet on each side of the paper so that when folded they make up a booklet. Booklet printing requires the duplex unit to be installed in your printer.

Poster printing will print large pages as tiles spread over multiple sheets.

1. For two sided printing, you can choose to flip the page by the long edge or the short edge. Of course, this requires that a duplex unit be installed in your printer.

2. If you have changed some printing preferences before and saved them as a set, you can recall them to avoid having to set them individually each time you need them.

3. A single on-screen button restores the default settings.

SECURE PRINTING FEATURE

With this feature you can send confidential documents to print and have them stored in the printer until you are ready to print them. Documents sent in this way are protected by a PIN (personal identification number), which must be entered before they will print. This is useful when you need to print confidential documents on a printer which is shared with, or accessible to, other people.

COLOUR PRINTING

CHOOSING A COLOUR MATCHING METHOD

There is no correct way to achieve a good match between the document displayed on your monitor, and its printed equivalent. There are many factors involved in achieving accurate and reproducible colour.

The following guidelines may help in achieving good colour output from your printer. There are several suggested methods, depending on the type of document you are printing.

These suggestions are for guidance only. Your results may vary depending on the application from which you are printing. Some applications will override any colour matching settings in the printer driver without warning.

RGB or CMYK?

The guidelines for choosing a colour matching method makes distinctions between Red, Green, Blue (RGB) and Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black (CMYK).

Generally, most documents you print will be in RGB format. This is the most common, and if you do not know your document's colour mode, assume that it is RGB.

Typically CMYK documents are only supported in professional Desktop Publishing and Graphics applications.

MATCHING PHOTOGRAPHIC IMAGES

RGB only

Oki Colour Matching is a generally a good choice. Select a matching method appropriate to your monitor.

RGB or CMYK

If you are printing photographic images from a graphics application such as Adobe Photoshop, you may be able to use Soft-Proofing to simulate the printed image on your monitor. To do this, you can use the ICC-Profiles provided by Oki, and then print using the ICC profiles as the Print Space (or Output space).

MATCHING SPECIFIC COLOURS

(For instance, a Company logo.)

RGB only

Oki Colour Matching, and the sRGB setting (PCL or PS driver).
PostScript Colour Matching using the Relative Colorimetric option.
Use the Colour Swatch Utility (1) to print out a chart of RGB swatches and enter your desired RGB values in your application's colour picker.

[PCL] Properties General Details Color Management Setup Job Options Colour Mode ● Solid Colour ○ Manual Colour ○ Manuscripts Device Options Colour Select Default OK Cancel Help

PRINTING VIVID COLOURS

RGB only

Use Oki Colour Matching, with either the Monitor 6500k Vivid, sRGB or Digital Camera settings (PCL or PostScript emulations).

PCL DRIVER

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.

The PCL driver's colour options are only designed to work with RGB data. If you are printing CMYK data, we recommend you use the PostScript driver.

To open colour matching options from the Windows Control Panel:

1. Open the Printers window. Right-click the printer name and choose Properties.
2. Click the Printing Preferences button (1).

To open colour matching options from within a Windows application:

PC1 Properties General Details Color/Management Setup Job Options Color生产设备 Options Colour Blends Auto Colour Manual Colour Monochrome Colour Preview Default OK Cancel Help

1. Choose File—Print... from the application's menu bar.
2. Click the Properties button next to the printer name.

SETTING THE COLOUR MATCHING OPTIONS

1. On the Colour tab select Manual for Colour Matching.
2. Choose from the available options:

(a) Monitor (6500k) Perceptual

Optimised for printing daylight photographs.

(b) Monitor (6500k) Vivid

Optimised for printing bright colours. Good for office graphics.

(c) Monitor (9300k)

Optimised for printing photographs when using a professional graphics monitor.

(d) Digital Camera

Optimised for printing photographs taken with a digital camera. This tends to produce prints with lighter and brighter colours. For some photographs, other settings may be better depending on the subjects and the conditions under which they were taken.

(e) sRGB

Optimised for matching specific colours, such as a company logo colour. The colours within the printer's colour gamut are printed without any modification, and only colours that fall outside the printable colours are modified.

USING THE COLOUR SWATCH FEATURE

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. This can be used to pick specific colours in applications that allow you to choose your own RGB values. Simply click the Color Swatch button (1) and choose from the options available.

PCL Properties General Details Color Management Setup Job Options Color Device Options Colour Mode: ● Auto Colour ○ Manual Colour ○ Manuscripts Color Scratch Overflow OK Cancel Help

An example of using the Colour Swatch function:

You wish to print a logo in a particular shade of red. The steps you would follow are:

1. Print a colour swatch, then select the shade of red that best suits your needs.
2. Take a note of the RGB value for the particular shade that you liked.
3. Using your program's colour picker, enter these same RGB values, and change the logo to that colour.

The RGB colour displayed on your monitor may not necessarily match what was printed on the colour swatch. If this is the case, it is probably due to the difference between how your monitor and printer reproduce colour. Here, it is unimportant since your primary objective is to print the required colour.

POSTSCRIPT DRIVER

COLOUR MATCHING OPTIONS

The PostScript driver offers several different methods of controlling the colour output of the printer.

Some of the colour matching options only work on certain types of data. The table below summarises the various options available, and what types of data they affect.

Colour Matching Option RGB data CMYK data

Oki Colour Matching Yes No

PostScript Colour Matching Yes Yes

CMYK Ink Simulation No Yes

Windows ICM Matching Yes No

Oki Colour Matching

This is Oki's proprietary colour matching system, and affects RGB data only.

P e settings are best for pripting photographic images.

Vivid or Digital Camera settings produce brightest colours.

s is the best choice for matching specific colours (such as printing logos).

Monitor (6500k) Perceptual

Optimised for printing photographs when using a monitor with a colour temperature of 6500K.

Monitor (6500k) Vivid

Optimised for printing bright colours when using a monitor with a colour temperature of 6500K. Good for office graphics and text.

Monitor (9300k)

Optimised for printing photographs when using a monitor with a colour temperature of 9300K.

Digital Camera

Optimised for printing photographs taken with a digital camera. This tends to produce prints with lighter and brighter colours. For some photographs, other settings may be better depending on the subjects and the conditions under which they were taken.

sRGB

Optimised for matching specific colours, such as a company logo colour.

The colours within the printer's colour gamut are printed without any modification, and only colours that fall outside the gamut (set of) printable colours are modified.

POSTSCRIPT COLOUR MATCHING

This uses PostScript Colour Rendering Dictionaries built into the printer, and affects both RGB and CMYK data.

Rendering Intents

When a document is printed, a conversion takes place from the document's colour space to the printer colour space. The rendering intents are essentially a set of rules that determine how this colour conversion takes place.

The rendering intents that the printer driver provides are listed below:

> Perceptual

Best choice for printing photographs. Compresses the source gamut into the printer's gamut whilst maintaining the overall appearance of an image. This may change the overall appearance of an image as all the colours are shifted together.

S a t u r a t i o n

Best choice for printing bright and saturated colours, but less accurately matched. This makes it the recommended choice for graphs, charts, diagrams etc. Maps fully saturated colours in the source gamut to fully saturated colours in the printer's gamut.

> Absolute Colorimetric

Best for printing solid colours and tints, such as Company logos etc. Matches colours common to both devices exactly, and clips the “out of gamut” colours to their nearest printed equivalent. Tries to print white as it appears on screen. The white of a monitor is often very different from paper white, so this may result in colour casts, especially in the lighter areas of an image.

> Relative Colorimetric

Good for proofing CMYK colour images on a desktop printer. Much like Absolute Colorimetric, except that it scales the source white to the (usually) paper white. Unlike Absolute Colorimetric, this attempts to take the paper white into account.

CMYK INK SIMULATION

Affects CMYK data only.

This option simulates what the output will look like on a printing press using the ink types SWOP, Euroscale or Toyo. If using CMYK Ink Simulation, it is recommended that you switch off all other Printer Colour Matching. Select the No Colour Matching option under the Colour Match option in the printer driver.

WINDOWS ICM COLOUR MATCHING

Affects RGB data only.

ICM is the colour management system built into Windows.

Windows ICM uses ICC profiles for your monitor and printer; these profiles describe the colours that your device is capable of reproducing. ICC profiles can be associated with your printer via the Colour Management tab of the printer driver.

Depending on how you have installed the printer driver, the colour profiles may already be associated with the driver.

To associate ICC Colour Profiles with the printer driver:

1. Access the printer settings via the Start menu.

2. Right-click the printer name and choose Properties.

3. Click the Colour Management tab.
4. Under “Colour Profiles currently associated with this printer”, you should see the names of profiles that match your printer model. If you do not see any profiles associated with the driver, click “Add...” and locate the ICC profiles for your printer.

Windows ICM uses the information in these profiles to convert colours in your documents to colours that the printer can reproduce. The way in which this conversion is performed can be controlled via the ICM Intent control in the printer driver.

OVERLAYS AND MACROS

NOTE

PostScript overlays are not available for Windows 95/98/Me.

CREATING PCL OVERLAYS

Three steps are required to create an overlay:

1. Create the form data using your own application software and print it to a printer (.PRN) file.
2. Use the Storage Device Manager utility software supplied on CD with your printer to create a “project file,” import the .PRN file, and download the generated filter (.BIN) files to the printer.
3. Use downloaded files to define your overlay ready for use with any future document.

When printing files to disk, do not select any special features, such as two-sided printing or multiple copies. These are not appropriate to macros, they apply only to your final documents.

Step 1: Creating the overlay image

1. Use your preferred application, perhaps a graphics program, to create the required image and save it.
2. Open your application's Print... dialogue.
3. Make sure that the selected printer name (1) is that of your PCL printer driver.
4. Select the Print To File (2) option.
5. Click on Properties and ensure that all driver settings are appropriate for the print job.

Print Name: (PCL) Status: Default printer: Ready Type: (PCL) Whole: LP11 Comment Print to Page Print range All Pages from 1 to 2 Selection Copies Number of copies: 1 1 2 3 Calculate OK Cancel

1. Click OK, and when prompted for a print file name, enter a meaningful name with the extension .PRN.
2. Close your application.

Step 2: Create and download macros

NOTE

Ensure that the Storage Device Manager has been installed (on the Printer Drivers CD, “Software Utilities”).

1. From the Windows Start/Programs/Okidata menu, start Storage Device Manager (SDM) and allow SDM to discover the printer.
2. Choose Projects→New Project to start a new project.
3. Choose Projects→Filter Macro File. The Filter Printer Patterns dialogue box appears. Make any adjustments in the settings that you need and then click OK.

Example: If you create a black oval in MS Paint and leave all the colour command filters checked, the black oval will print as a black rectangle when the overlay is used. To maintain the oval shape, turn off (deselect) the “Configure Image Data,” “Palette ID” and “Palette Control” filters.

1. Set the Files of Type drop-down list to PRN Files (*.prn).

2. Navigate to the folder where the overlay .PRN files are stored and select one or more of these to include in your overlay set.

You can have more than one macro file in a project. For example, one for top pages and another for continuation pages. Use standard Windows techniques (Shift or Ctrl keys) to select multiple files simultaneously if you need to.

1. Click Open to add these files to the current project. (You can also drag and drop files from Windows Explorer directly into the project window if you prefer.) When a message box appears confirming that a filter file has been created, click OK to clear the message.

2. The project window will display one .BIN file for each printer file added. Make a careful note of the name and ID number for each of the files. You will need them later.

If you wish to edit the names or ID numbers, double-click the file entry and edit the details. Volume details are as follows:

0 = printer's disk drive PCL partition;

1 = printer's disk drive Common partition;

%disk0% = printer's disk drive PostScript partition;

2 = flash memory PCL

%Flash0% = flash memory PostScript

NOTE

The names are case sensitive, and will be needed later exactly as they appear in this list.

1. Choose Projects→Save Project and enter a meaningful name (e.g. “Letter Stationery”) so that you can recognise it.
2. Choose Projects→Send Project Files to Printer to download the project to the printer.
3. When the message "Command Issued" appears confirming that the download is complete, click OK to clear the message.

Test printing the macro

1. Choose Printers→Test Macro .
2. In the Test Macro window, enter its ID number and click OK. After a short pause the printer will print the macro.
3. When each macro has been tested, click Exit.
4. Click the standard Windows Close (X) button, or choose Projects→Exit to close Storage Device Manager.

Step 3: Defining overlays

This is the final step before the new overlays are ready for use.

1. Open the Printers window via the Start menu or the Windows Control Panel.

2. Right-click on the relevant PCL printer icon and choose Printing Preferences from the pop-up menu.

3. On the Job Options tab, click the Overlay button.

4. In the Overlay window, Click the Define Overlays button (1).

If you choose Auto Select, the printer automatically chooses a tray in the printer that contains the correct size of paper.

If you choose a paper source manually, ensure that the paper tray in the printer contains paper of the correct size.

OPERATION

This section explains how to change the printer's operation for specific print jobs when required.

The PostScript printer drivers supplied with this machine provide several controls for changing the colour output of your printer. Generally, using the default settings will suffice, producing 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.

COLOUR MATCHING

FACTORS THAT AFFECT THE APPEARANCE OF PRINTS

If you wish to manually adjust the colour settings in your printer driver, please be aware that colour reproduction is a complex topic, and there are many factors to take into consideration. Some of the most important factors are listed below.

1. Differences between the range of colours a monitor or printer can reproduce

Neither a printer nor a monitor is capable of reproducing the full range of colours visible to the human eye. Each device is restricted to a certain range of colours. In addition to this, a printer cannot reproduce all of the colours displayed on a monitor, and vice versa.
Both devices use very different technologies to represent colour. A monitor uses Red, Green and Blue (RGB) phosphors (or LCDs), a printer uses Cyan, Yellow, Magenta and Black (CMYK) toner or ink.
A monitor can display very vivid colours such as intense reds and blues and these cannot be easily produced on any printer using toner or ink. Similarly, there are certain colours, (some yellows for example), that can be printed, but cannot be displayed accurately on a monitor. This disparity between monitors and printers is often the main reason that printed colours do not match the colours displayed onscreen.

2. 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.

3. Monitor settings

The brightness and contrast controls on your monitor can change how your document looks on-screen. Additionally, your monitor colour temperature influences how “warm” or “cool” the colours look.

NOTE

Several of the Printer Driver's Colour Matching options make reference to your monitor's Colour Temperature. Many modern monitors allow the colour temperature to be adjusted using the monitor's control panel.

There are several settings found on a typical monitor:

5000k Warmest; yellowish lighting, typically used in graphics/arts environments.
6500k Cooler; approximates daylight conditions.
9300k Cool; the default setting for many monitors and television sets.

(k = degrees Kelvin, a measurement of temperature)

4. How your software application displays colour

Some graphics applications such as Corel Draw or Adobe Photoshop may display colour differently from “office” applications such as Microsoft Word. Please see your application’s online help or user manual for more information.

5. Paper type

The type of paper used can also significantly affect the printed colour. For example, a printout on recycled paper can look duller than one on specially formulated glossy paper.

CHOOSING A COLOUR MATCHING METHOD

There is no correct way to achieve a good match between the document displayed on your monitor, and it's printed equivalent. There are many factors involved in achieving accurate and reproducible colour.

However, the following guidelines may help in achieving good colour output from your printer. There are several suggested methods, depending on the type of document you are printing.

NOTE

These suggestions are for guidance only. Your results may vary depending on the application from which you are printing. Some applications will override any colour matching settings in the printer driver without warning.

RGB OR CMYK?

The guidelines for choosing a colour matching method makes distinctions between Red, Green, Blue (RGB) and Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black (CMYK).

Generally, most documents you print will be in RGB format. This is the most common, and, if you do not know your document's colour mode, assume that it is RGB.

Typically CMYK documents are only supported in professional Desktop Publishing and Graphics applications.

MATCHING PHOTOGRAPHIC IMAGES

RGB only

Oki Colour Matching is a generally a good choice. Select a matching method appropriate to your monitor.

RGB or CMYK

If you are printing photographic images from a graphics application such as Adobe Photoshop, you may be able to use Soft-Proofing to simulate the printed image on your monitor. To do this, you can use the ICC-Profiles provided by Oki, and then print using the ICC profiles as the Print Space (or Output space).

MATCHING SPECIFIC COLOURS

(For instance, a Company logo.)

RGB only

Oki Colour Matching, and the sRGB setting.
PostScript Colour Matching using the Relative Colorimetric option.
Use the Colour Swatch Utility to print out a chart of RGB swatches and enter your desired RGB values in your application's colour picker.

RGB or CMYK

If you are printing from a graphics application such as Adobe Photoshop, you may be able to use Soft-Proofing to simulate the printed image on your monitor. To do this, you can use the ICC-Profiles provided by Oki, and then print using the ICC profiles as the Print Space (or Output space).
Alternatively, use PostScript Colour Matching with the Relative Colorimetric setting.

PRINTING VIVID COLOURS

RGB only

Use Oki Colour Matching, with either the Monitor 6500k Vivid, sRGB or Digital Camera settings.

RGB or CMYK

Use PostScript Colour Matching with the Saturation option.

OKI DRIVER OPTIONS

This section references only the OKI-specific driver selections.

3. Oki Colour Match Options

These options are available when Oki Colour Matching is selected in “Colour Match Using...”. You can match to a device such as a Monitor or Digital Camera. Select the option desired based upon the information below.

Digital Camera

Optimised for printing photographs taken with a digital camera. This tends to produce prints with lighter and brighter colours. For some photographs, other settings may be better depending on the subjects and the conditions under which they were taken. Vivid or Digital Camera settings produce the brightest colours.

Monitor (6500k) Auto

The default setting that selects the best options for your printer. This selection works best for office graphics.

Monitor (6500k) Perceptual

Optimised for printing photographs when using a monitor with a colour temperature of 6500K. This is best for printing photographic images.

Monitor (6500k) Vivid

Optimised for printing bright colours when using a monitor with a colour temperature of 6500K. Ideal for office graphics and text. Vivid or Digital Camera settings produce the brightest colours.

Monitor (9300k)

Optimised for printing photographs when using a monitor with a colour temperature of 9300K.

sRGB

Optimised for matching specific colours, such as a company logo colour. This option attempts to simulate RGB colour. The colours within the printer's colour gamut are printed without any modification, and only colours that fall outside the printable colours are modified.

4. Rendering Intent

Printer: YOUR PRINTER Presets: Standard Printer Features Feature Sets: Set 2 Colour Matching Using: Oki Colour Matching Black Finish: Auto Oki Colour Match Options: Monitor (6500K) - Auto Rendering Intent: Auto ✓ Always use printer halftone Preview Save As PDF... Cancel Print

Rendering Intents are only used when “Postscript Colour Matching” is selected.

When a document is printed, a conversion takes place from the document's colour space to the printer colour space. The rendering intents are essentially a set of rules that determine how this colour conversion takes place.

Select the option desired.

Absolute Colorimetric

Matches colours common to both devices exactly, and clips the out of gamut colours to their nearest printed equivalent. Tries to print white as it appears on screen. The white of a monitor is often very different from paper white, so this may result in colour casts, especially in the lighter areas of an image.

Auto

The best default selection, as this selects the optimal settings for a general office environment.

Perceptual

Best choice for printing photographs. Compresses the source gamut into the printer's gamut whilst maintaining the overall appearance of an image. This may change the overall appearance of an image as all the colours are shifted together.

Relative Colorimetric

Good for proofing CMYK colour images on a desktop printer. Best for solid colours and tints.

Much like Absolute Colorimetric, except that it scales the source white to the (usually) paper white; i.e. unlike Absolute Colorimetric, this attempts to take the paper white into account.

Saturation

Best choice for printing bright and saturated colours if you don't necessarily care how accurate the colours are. This makes it the recommended choice for graphs, charts, diagrams etc. Maps fully saturated colours in the source gamut to fully saturated colours in the printer's gamut.

5. Always use Printer Halftone

Printer: YOUR PRINTER Presets: Standard Printer Features Feature Sets: Set 2 Colour Matching Using: Oki Colour Matching Black Finish: Auto Oki Colour Match Options: Monitor (6500K) - Auto Rendering Intent: Auto Always use printer halftone

This option prevents the halftone of a high-end graphic application from printing by using the printer's halftone pattern instead of the application's one.

4. Use the printer front panel controls to print out the document.

Proof and Print

Proof and print allows printing of a single copy of a document for checking before printing multiple copies. First the document is assigned a password and processed to a print file. The file is saved on the hard disk drive and one copy printed. If the document is okay for printing, the remaining copies are printed on demand by entering the password through the printer's front panel.

Once the document is printed, it is deleted from the hard drive. If you wish to retain the document on the hard disk drive after printing it, use the Store to Hard Disk feature.

NOTE

The internal hard disk must be installed in the printer and enabled to allow for spooling of the print job before final printing.
If the hard disk memory is insufficient for the spooled data, DISK FULL is displayed and only one copy printed.
If the software application being used has a collate print option, this must be turned OFF for Proof and Print to operate correctly.
Proof and Print may not be available in some software applications.

1. Select Proof and Print.
2. Enter a job name of up to 16 characters under Job Name Setting and a four-digit personal ID number (0000 to 9999).
3. Click Print to proceed with your print job. Print the document from the software application being used. The document will be stored on the printer's hard disk and one copy will print for your perusal.

(c) For selections other than 1, you may select a page border to surround each individual page image that will be printed on the single sheet of paper.

1. Click Print to print or Save Settings to save, and close the printer dialogue box.

DUPLEX PRINTING

Duplex Printing is printing on both sides of the paper.

NOTE

The optional Duplex Unit must be installed in the printer, and configured in the printer driver.
Paper weight must be from 75 to 105 ~g / m^2 . Printing with heavier or lighter paper weights can cause paper jams.
Paper must be loaded into the paper tray with the print side facing upwards. The multi purpose tray cannot be used for duplex printing.

To carry out Duplex printing:

1. From the File menu, select Print.
2. From the pop-up menu, select Layout.
3. From the Layout screen, select the desired options:

Printer: YOUR PRINTER Destination: Printer Layout Pages per sheet: 2 Layout direction: 1 2 2 1 Border: Single hairline a Print on Both Sides b Binding: Save Settings Cancel Print

(a) Select Print on Both Sides to enable Duplex printing.
(b) Choose which side to bind the paper, (Long-edge or Short-edge).

1. Click Print to print or Save Settings to save, and close the printer dialogue box.

CUSTOM PAGE SIZES

The printer driver allows you to create your own custom paper sizes. Once defined, these appear at the bottom of the Paper menu in the Page Setup section of the printer driver.

1. From the File menu, choose Page Setup.
2. Select Custom Page Sizes from the menu.
3. Define your custom page sizes.
   These are saved in the printer driver, and can be selected just as the predefined paper sizes.

NOTE

Click the graphic in the Page Setup dialogue to view information about the current page size in centimetres.
Click a second time to display information in inches.
Click a third time to return to the graphic.

NOTE

Custom page sizes can only be printed from the multi purpose tray (manual feed). The printer setting for the multi purpose tray must be manually set to custom paper size before use. Width of a custom page size can be from 76.2mm to 216mm and length from 127mm to 900mm

PRINT RESOLUTION

The print resolution affects the quality of your printouts. Select the highest print resolution to get the optimum quality.

1. From the File menu, select Print.
2. From the pop-up menu select Printer Job Options.
3. Under the Resolution setting, choose from either:
   Best - The highest resolution your printer is capable of.
   Normal - A medium resolution, suitable for most documents.
4. Click Print.

NOTE

Higher print resolutions require more memory, and the job may take longer to be sent to the printer.

COLLATING

Collating can be carried out with or without a hard disk drive fitted. However, fitting a HDD will achieve greater performance.

If the software application being used has a collate print option, it is recommended to use only one collate option to prevent any conflicts in printing, i.e. collate from the software application or collate from the printer driver.

The following instructions explain how to select collating using a printer driver.

To setup collate:

1. From the File menu, choosePrint.

The General dialogue box should be displayed. If not, select General from the menu.

Printer: YOU R PRINTER Destination: Printer General Copies: 1 Collated Pages: All From: To: Paper Source: All pages from: Auto Select First page from: Tray 1 Remaining from: Tray 1 Save Settings Cancel Print

1. Type the number of Copies you wish to print.
2. From the pop-up menu, select Job Options.
3. Select the Collate option.
4. Click Print.

NOTE

There may also be a collate option provided in the printer driver's General options. This should be disabled. Similarly if your application has a collate option in it's print settings, this should also be disabled.

Why are there several Collate options?

Setting Collate within the Job Options enables printer collate. This causes the printer to do the actual collating, rather than the driver. When the printer collates print jobs, this increases the print speed mainly because the job is only processed once.

Selecting Collate in the General options enables driver collate. When the driver collates, the print job may be sent to the printer multiple times, thereby decreasing print speed.

BACKGROUND PRINTING

Background printing allows you to print documents and continue to use your Mac at the same time. It does this by saving a temporary print file to your hard disk, and then sending it to the printer.

This has the advantage of freeing up your computer much more quickly, enabling you to do other things whilst your document is printing. The disadvantage of Background printing is that it is slower, and your computer's performance may temporarily be affected whilst the print job is processed.

You can enable and disable Background printing on an individual print job basis by using the printer driver:

1. From the File menu, select Print.
2. From the pop-up menu, select Background Printing
3. From Print In, select the Background option.
4. If you want to enable background printing as default, click Save Settings.
5. Click Print.

UTILITIES

Two utilities are provided on your printer driver's CD-ROM; the Colour Swatch Utility and the Oki PostScript Utility. The installer programs for these utilities are found in the “Utilities” folder on your CD-ROM.

COLOUR SWATCH UTILITY

The Colour Swatch Utility prints out charts that contain a range of sample colours. Listed below each sample colour are the corresponding RGB (Red, Green, Blue) values. This can be used to pick

specific colours in applications that allow you to choose your own RGB values.

An example of using the Colour Swatch Utility

Suppose you wished to print a logo in a particular shade of red. Here are the steps you would follow to accomplish a good colour match using the Colour Swatch utility.

1. Print a colour swatch, taking care to note the printer driver colour settings that you use.
2. Select a shade of red that best suits your needs.

3. Take a note of the RGB value below the particular shade of red that you prefer.

4. Using your application program's colour picker, enter these same RGB values (from Step 3) and change the logo to that colour.

NOTE

The RGB colour on your monitor may not necessarily match what was printed on the colour swatch. In this case, don't worry; you are using the printed colour swatch to pick a colour instead of judging the colour by the way it appears on screen.

1. Print your document using the same driver settings as you originally used (see Step 1).

OKI POSTSCRIPT UTILITY

The Oki PostScript Utility works with printers connected via USB or AppleTalk. It does not work with printers connected via TCP/IP.

The utility has the following features:

Adjusts Gamma curves for the printer.
Allows several printer options to be changed, including trays and paper types.
Downloads PostScript and PDF files directly to the printer.
Displays font lists.
Initialises (formats) the printer hard disk.
Allows the printer AppleTalk name and Zone to be changed.

About Gamma Curves Created with the PostScript Utility

The Gamma curves function effectively allows fine control over the printer's brightness and colour output. All printer colours can be adjusted together (CMYK), or each colour can be adjusted separately.

Adjusting printer gamma is similar to performing a CMYK Curves adjustment in an image-editing program such as Adobe ^® Photoshop ^® .

Once a custom gamma adjustment has been made, the settings can be saved to the printer's PPD (PostScript Printer Description) file, and can be selected from the Printer Driver Colour options.

Creating a Gamma Adjustment, Step-by-step

Ensure that your Oki printer is selected as default on your Desktop.

1. You can do this by selecting the printer icon, and from the Printing menu select Set Default Printer.
2. Launch the Oki PostScript Utility.
3. From the Utilities menu, select Adjust Printer Gamma....

4. Click the New button.

PS Gamma Adjuster New Available Gamma Curves: Add -> <- Remove Select PPD... PPD File: YOUR PRINTER.ppd Save Cancel Help Edit... Copy Delete

1. The printer's gamma can be adjusted globally (all CMYK values together), or each separate primary printer colour can be adjusted individually. The gamma curves plot the input values (%) on the X axis against the output values (%) on the Y axis.

The curves can be adjusted by either clicking and dragging the curves with the mouse, or by manually entering values into the text fields. To remove points on the curve, either double click on the points, or delete the corresponding values in the appropriate text fields.

Tips on Adjusting Colour

To adjust the entire image using a particular colour as a reference, manually enter the desired values in the text fields.

For example, if you print a red colour composed of the following values:

10% cyan, 90% magenta, 80% yellow and 5% black.

You decide that it needs 5% more magenta and 3% less yellow. This means you would need to enter the following new values manually:

$$ \text{For magenta,} 90 \% + 5 \% \text{extra} = 95 \% $$

$$ \text { For yellow, } 80 \% - 3 \% \text { less } = 77 \% $$

Enter these new values in the text fields, replacing the current values;

change 90% ->95% for magenta, and change 80%->77% for yellow.

This can be used to help compensate for dot gain if proofing for later output to press.

If you are adjusting based on RGB values:

To make the entire image redder, increase cyan.

To make the entire image bluer, increase yellow.

To make the entire image greener, increase magenta.

Similarly, you can eliminate tints on your printouts:

To reduce a red tint, decrease cyan.

To reduce a blue tint, decrease yellow.

To reduce a green tint, decrease magenta.

NOTE

You will not be able to save a gamma adjustment if:

The gamma adjustment has not been named.
Any of the values entered in text boxes are outside the acceptable range (0%-100%).
All of the text boxes are blank; there must be at least 0% and 100% levels entered.

Gamma adjustments are stored in the printer's PPD (PostScript Printer Description) file.

Ensure that the correct PPD file for your printer is selected - if not, you may select it manually by clicking the Select... button.

1. Click Add-> to add your Custom Gamma adjustment to the PPD file.

PS Gamma Adjuster New Available Gamma Curves: My Gamma Add -> <- Remove Select PPD... PPD File: OKI C5300.ppd My Gamma Save Cancel Help Edit... Copy Delete

1. Click Save.

2. From the File menu, select Quit to exit the Oki PostScript Utility.

To use the gamma adjustment when printing:

1. From your application's File menu, choose Print....

2. From the printer driver's pop-up menu, choose Printer Colour Options.

3. Under the Custom Gamma Adjustment selection, choose the gamma adjustment you created.

OPERATION

This section explains how to change the printer's operation for specific print jobs when required.

The PostScript printer drivers supplied with this machine provide several controls for changing the colour output of your printer. Generally, using the default settings will suffice, producing 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.

COLOUR MATCHING

FACTORS THAT AFFECT THE APPEARANCE OF PRINTS

If you wish to manually adjust the colour settings in your printer driver, please be aware that colour reproduction is a complex topic, and there are many factors to take into consideration. Some of the most important factors are listed below.

1. Differences between the range of colours a monitor or printer can reproduce

Neither a printer nor a monitor is capable of reproducing the full range of colours visible to the human eye. Each device is restricted to a certain range of colours. In addition to this, a printer cannot reproduce all of the colours displayed on a monitor, and vice versa.
Both devices use very different technologies to represent colour. A monitor uses Red, Green and Blue (RGB) phosphors (or LCDs), a printer uses Cyan, Yellow, Magenta and Black (CMYK) toner or ink.
A monitor can display very vivid colours such as intense reds and blues and these cannot be easily produced on any printer using toner or ink. Similarly, there are certain colours, (some yellows for example), that can be printed, but cannot be displayed accurately on a monitor. This disparity between monitors and printers is often the main reason that printed colours do not match the colours displayed onscreen.

2. 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.

3. Monitor settings

The brightness and contrast controls on your monitor can change how your document looks on-screen. Additionally, your monitor colour temperature influences how “warm” or “cool” the colours look.

NOTE

Several of the Printer Driver's Colour Matching options make reference to your monitor's Colour Temperature. Many modern monitors allow the colour temperature to be adjusted using the monitor's control panel.

There are several settings found on a typical monitor:

5000k Warmest; yellowish lighting, typically used in graphics/arts environments.
6500k Cooler; approximates daylight conditions.
9300k Cool; the default setting for many monitors and television sets.

(k = degrees Kelvin, a measurement of temperature)

4. How your software application displays colour

Some graphics applications such as Corel Draw or Adobe Photoshop may display colour differently from “office” applications such as Microsoft Word. Please see your application’s on-line help or user manual for more information.

5. Paper type

The type of paper used can also significantly affect the printed colour. For example, a printout on recycled paper can look duller than one on specially formulated glossy paper.

CHOOSING A COLOUR MATCHING METHOD

There is no correct way to achieve a good match between the document displayed on your monitor, and it's printed equivalent. There are many factors involved in achieving accurate and reproducible colour.

However, the following guidelines may help in achieving good colour output from your printer. There are several suggested methods, depending on the type of document you are printing.

NOTE

These suggestions are for guidance only. Your results may vary depending on the application from which you are printing. Some applications will override any colour matching settings in the printer driver without warning.

RGB OR CMYK?

The guidelines for choosing a colour matching method makes distinctions between Red, Green, Blue (RGB) and Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black (CMYK).

Generally, most documents you print will be in RGB format. This is the most common, and, if you do not know your document's colour mode, assume that it is RGB.

Typically CMYK documents are only supported in professional Desktop Publishing and Graphics applications.

MATCHING PHOTOGRAPHIC IMAGES

RGB only

Oki Colour Matching is a generally a good choice. Select a matching method appropriate to your monitor.

RGB or CMYK

If you are printing photographic images from a graphics application such as Adobe Photoshop, you may be able to use Soft-Proofing to simulate the printed image on your monitor. To do this, you can use the ICC-Profiles provided by Oki, and then print using the ICC profiles as the Print Space (or Output space).

MATCHING SPECIFIC COLOURS

(For instance, a Company logo.)

RGB only

Oki Colour Matching, and the sRGB setting.
PostScript Colour Matching using the Relative Colorimetric option.
Use the Colour Swatch Utility to print out a chart of RGB swatches and enter your desired RGB values in your application's colour picker.

RGB or CMYK

If you are printing from a graphics application such as Adobe Photoshop, you may be able to use Soft-Proofing to simulate the printed image on your monitor. To do this, you can use the ICC-Profiles provided by Oki, and then print using the ICC profiles as the Print Space (or Output space).
Alternatively, use PostScript Colour Matching with the Relative Colorimetric setting.

PRINTING VIVID COLOURS

RGB only

Use Oki Colour Matching, with either the Monitor 6500k Vivid, sRGB or Digital Camera settings.

RGB or CMYK

Use PostScript Colour Matching with the Saturation option.

OKI DRIVER OPTIONS

This section references only the Oki-specific driver selections.

Optimised for printing photographs when using a monitor with a colour temperature of 9300K.

sRGB

Optimised for matching specific colours, such as a company logo colour. This option attempts to simulate RGB colour. The colours within the printer's colour gamut are printed without any modification, and only colours that fall outside the printable colours are modified.

4. Rendering Intent

Printer: YOUR PRINTER Presets: Standard Printer Features Feature Sets: Set 2 Colour Matching Using: Oki Colour Matching Black Finish: Auto Oki Colour Match Options: Monitor (6500K) - Auto Rendering Intent: Auto ✓ Always use printer halftone Preview Save As PDF... Cancel Print

Rendering Intents are only used when “Postscript Colour Matching” is selected.

When a document is printed, a conversion takes place from the document's colour space to the printer's colour space. The rendering intents are essentially a set of rules that determine how this colour conversion takes place.

Select the option desired.

Absolute Colorimetric

Matches colours common to both devices exactly, and clips the “out of gamut” colours to their nearest printed equivalent. Tries to print white as it appears on screen. The white of a monitor is often very different from paper white, so this may result in colour casts, especially in the lighter areas of an image.

Auto

The best default option as this selects the optimal settings for a general office environment.

Perceptual

Best choice for printing photographs. Compresses the source gamut into the printer's gamut whilst maintaining the overall appearance of an image. This may change the overall appearance of an image as all the colours are shifted together.

Relative Colorimetric

Good for proofing CMYK colour images on a desktop printer. Best for solid colours and tints.

Much like Absolute Colorimetric, except that it scales the source white to the (usually) paper white; i.e. unlike Absolute Colorimetric, this attempts to take the paper white into account.

Saturation

Best choice for printing bright and saturated colours if you don’t necessarily care how accurate the colours are. This makes it the recommended choice for graphs, charts, diagrams etc. Maps fully saturated colours in the source gamut to fully saturated colours in the printer’s gamut.

5. Always use Printer Halftone

OPERATIONS

This section deals with printing options. It does not attempt to cover all the options that might occur, but rather, the typical printing operations that can benefit from detailed descriptions. The settings selected here are document specific only; meaning, the setting selected will apply only to the current print job.

COLLATING

Collating can be carried out with or without a hard disk drive installed. However, installing an HDD will achieve greater performance.

If the software application being used has a collate print option, it is recommended to use only one collate option to prevent any conflicts in printing, i.e. collate from the software application or collate from the printer driver.

The following instructions explain how to select collating using a printer driver.

To access, first select your desired printer from an application using File→Print..

1. The Copies & Pages dialogue box should already be displayed. If not, then select Copies & Pages from the menu.

When you select a paper-type option, the printer automatically accesses the proper tray. For example, when Labels is selected, the printer will pull from the Multipurpose tray where the labels should be inserted.

Tray Options

Select the drawer desired for the current print job.

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.

FACTORS THAT AFFECT THE APPEARANCE OF PRINTS

If you wish to manually adjust the colour settings in your printer driver, please be aware that colour reproduction is a complex topic, and there are many factors to take into consideration. Some of the most important factors are listed below.

Differences between the range of colours a monitor or printer can reproduce

Neither a printer nor a monitor is capable of reproducing the full range of colours visible to the human eye. Each device is restricted to a certain range of colours. In addition to this, a printer cannot reproduce all of the colours displayed on a monitor, and vice versa.
Both devices use very different technologies to represent colour. A monitor uses Red, Green and Blue (RGB) phosphors (or LCDs), a printer uses Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black (CMYK) toner or ink.
A monitor can display very vivid colours such as intense reds and blues and these cannot be easily produced on any printer using toner or ink. Similarly, there are certain colours, (some yellows for example), that can be printed, but cannot be displayed accurately on a monitor. This disparity between monitors and printers is often the main reason that printed colours do not match the colours displayed on screen.

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.

Monitor settings

The brightness and contrast controls on your monitor can change how your document looks on-screen. Additionally, your monitor's colour temperature influences how “warm” or “cool” the colours look.

Several of the Colour Matching options make reference to your monitor's Colour Temperature. Many modern monitors allow the colour temperature to be adjusted using the monitor's control panel.

There are several settings found on a typical monitor:

5000k Warmest; yellowish lighting, typically used in graphics arts environments.

6500k Cooler; approximates daylight conditions.

9300k Cool; the default setting for many monitors and television sets.

(k = degrees Kelvin, a measurement of temperature.)

How your software application displays colour

Some graphics applications such as Corel Draw or Adobe Photoshop may display colour differently from “Office” applications such as Microsoft Word. Please see your application’s on-line help or user manual for more information.

Paper type

The type of paper used can also significantly affect the printed colour. For example, a printout on recycled paper can look duller than one on specially formulated glossy paper.

CHOOSING A COLOUR MATCHING METHOD

There is no correct way to achieve a good match between the document displayed on your monitor, and its printed equivalent. There are many factors involved in achieving accurate and reproducible colour.

The following guidelines may help in achieving good colour output from your printer. There are several suggested methods, depending on the type of document you are printing.

These suggestions are for guidance only. Your results may vary depending on the application from which you are printing. Some applications will override any colour matching settings in the printer driver without warning.

RGB OR CMYK?

The guidelines for choosing a colour matching method makes distinctions between Red, Green, Blue (RGB) and Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black (CMYK).

Generally, most documents you print will be in RGB format. This is the most common, and if you do not know your document's colour mode, assume that it is RGB.

Typically CMYK documents are only supported in professional Desktop Publishing and Graphics applications.

MATCHING PHOTOGRAPHIC IMAGES

RGB only

Oki Colour Matching is a generally a good choice. Select a matching method appropriate to your monitor.

RGB or CMYK

If you are printing photographic images from a graphics application such as Adobe Photoshop, you may be able to use Soft-Proofing to simulate the printed image on your monitor. To do this, you can use the ICC-Profiles provided by Oki, and then print using the ICC profiles as the Print Space (or Output space).

MATCHING SPECIFIC COLOURS

(For instance, a Company logo.)

RGB only

Oki Colour Matching, and the sRGB setting (PCL or PS driver).

PostScript Colour Matching using the Relative Colorimetric option.
Use the Colour Swatch Utility (1) to print out a chart of RGB swatches and enter your desired RGB values in your application's colour picker.

Printing Defaults Setup Job Options Color Color Mode Auto Color Manual Color Monochrome Color Swind Default OK Cancel Apply Help

PRINTING VIVID COLOURS

RGB only

Use Oki Colour Matching, with either the Monitor 6500k Vivid, sRGB or Digital Camera settings (PCL or PostScript emulations).

PCL DRIVER

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.

The PCL driver's colour options are only designed to work with RGB data. If you are printing CMYK data, we recommend you use the PostScript driver.

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).

Properties General Sharing Parts Advanced Color Management Device Option Printer Name Location: Comment: Model Printer Name Features Color: Yes Paper available Double-sided: No Staple: No Speed: 15 ppm Maximum resolution: Unknown Printing Preferences... Print Test Page OK Cancel Help

To open colour matching options from within a Windows application:

1. Choose File→Print... from the application's menu bar.
2. Click the Properties button next to the printer name.

SETTING THE COLOUR MATCHING OPTIONS

1. On the Colour tab select Manual for Colour Matching.

2. Choose from the available options:

(a) Monitor (6500k) Perceptual

Optimised for printing daylight photographs.

(b) Monitor (6500k) Vivid

Optimised for printing bright colours. Good for office graphics.

(c) Monitor (9300k)

Optimised for printing photographs when using a professional graphics monitor.

(d) Digital Camera

Optimised for printing photographs taken with a digital camera. This tends to produce prints with lighter and brighter colours. For some photographs, other settings may be better depending on the subjects and the conditions under which they were taken.

(e) sRGB

Optimised for matching specific colours, such as a company logo colour. The colours within the printer's colour gamut are printed without any modification, and only colours that fall outside the printable colours are modified.

USING THE COLOUR SWATCH FEATURE

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. This can be used to pick specific colours in applications that allow you to choose your own RGB values. Simply click the Color Swatch button (1) and choose from the options available.

Printing Defaults Setup Job Options Color Color Mode ● Auto Color ○ Manual Color ○ Nonochrome Color Wizard Default OK Cancel Apply Help

An example of using the Colour Swatch function:

You wish to print a logo in a particular shade of red. The steps you would follow are:

1. Print a colour swatch, then select the shade of red that best suits your needs.
2. Take a note of the RGB value for the particular shade that you liked.
3. Using your program's colour picker, enter these same RGB values, and change the logo to that colour.

The RGB colour displayed on your monitor may not necessarily match what was printed on the colour swatch. If this is the case, it is probably due to the difference between how your monitor and printer reproduce colour. Here, it is unimportant since your primary objective is to print the required colour.

POSTSCRIPT DRIVER

COLOUR MATCHING OPTIONS

The PostScript driver offers several different methods of controlling the colour output of the printer.

Some of the colour matching options only work on certain types of data. The table below summarises the various options available, and what types of data they affect.

Oki Colour Matching

This is Oki's proprietary colour matching system, and affects RGB data only.

P e settings are best for prompting photographic images.
Vivid or Digital Camera settings produce brightest colours.
s is the best choice for matching specific colours (such as printing logos).

Monitor (6500k) Perceptual

Optimised for printing photographs when using a monitor with a colour temperature of 6500K.

Monitor (6500k) Vivid

Optimised for printing bright colours when using a monitor with a colour temperature of 6500K. Good for office graphics and text.

Monitor (9300k)

Optimised for printing photographs when using a monitor with a colour temperature of 9300K.

Digital Camera

Optimised for printing photographs taken with a digital camera. This tends to produce prints with lighter and brighter colours. For some photographs, other settings may be better depending on the subjects and the conditions under which they were taken.

sRGB

Optimised for matching specific colours, such as a company logo colour.

The colours within the printer's colour gamut are printed without any modification, and only colours that fall outside the gamut (set of) printable colours are modified.

POSTSCRIPT COLOUR MATCHING

This uses PostScript Colour Rendering Dictionaries built into the printer, and affects both RGB and CMYK data.

Rendering Intents

When a document is printed, a conversion takes place from the document's colour space to the printer colour space. The rendering intents are essentially a set of rules that determine how this colour conversion takes place.

The rendering intents that the printer driver provides are listed below:

> Perceptual

Best choice for printing photographs. Compresses the source gamut into the printer's gamut whilst maintaining the overall appearance of an image. This may change the overall appearance of an image as all the colours are shifted together.

Saturation

Best choice for printing bright and saturated colours, but less accurately matched. This makes it the recommended choice for graphs, charts, diagrams etc. Maps fully saturated colours in the source gamut to fully saturated colours in the printer's gamut.

Absolute Colorimetric

Best for printing solid colours and tints, such as Company logos etc. Matches colours common to both devices exactly, and clips the out of gamut colours to their nearest printed equivalent. Tries to print white as it appears on screen. The white of a monitor is often very different from paper white, so this may result in colour casts, especially in the lighter areas of an image.

Relative Colorimetric

Good for proofing CMYK colour images on a desktop printer. Much like Absolute Colorimetric, except that it scales the source white to the (usually) paper white. Unlike Absolute Colorimetric, this attempts to take the paper white into account.

CMYK INK SIMULATION

Affects CMYK data only.

This option simulates what the output will look like on a printing press using the ink types SWOP, Euroscale or Toyo. If using CMYK Ink Simulation, it is recommended that you switch off all other Printer Colour Matching. Select the No Colour Matching option under the Colour Match option in the printer driver.

WINDOWS ICM COLOUR MATCHING

Windows 98, Me, 2000 and XP only. Affects RGB data only.

ICM is the colour management system built into Windows.

Windows ICM uses ICC profiles for your monitor and printer; these profiles describe the colours that your device is capable of

reproducing. ICC profiles can be associated with your printer via the Colour Management tab of the printer driver.

Depending on how you have installed the printer driver, the colour profiles may already be associated with the driver.

To associate ICC Colour Profiles with the printer driver:

1. Access the printer settings via the Start menu.
2. Right-click the printer name and choose Properties.
3. Click the Colour Management tab.
4. Under “Colour Profiles currently associated with this printer”, you should see the names of profiles that match your printer model. If you do not see any profiles associated with the driver, click “Add...” and locate the ICC profiles for your printer.

Windows ICM uses the information in these profiles to convert colours in your documents to colours that the printer can reproduce. The way in which this conversion is performed can be controlled via the ICM Intent control in the printer driver.

USING ICC PROFILES

Windows 2000 and Windows XP. Affects RGB data only.

This provides a method of matching RGB colours similar to Windows ICM matching. The main advantage it has over Windows ICM colour matching is that it provides a method of printing using both input and output profiles. Windows ICM matching only allows output profiles to be chosen.

Input profiles provide information about the colour in the original device that was used to capture or display the image data. For example, an input device could be a scanner, digital camera or monitor.

Output profiles provide information about the device to which you are printing.

The “Using ICC Profiles” function allows both an input profile (e.g. digital camera), and an output profile (e.g. your printer) to be selected. It uses both these profiles to generate a CRD (Colour

Rendering Dictionary), and this is used to match the colours as closely as possible.

This feature may not work for all application programs. However, many professional graphics applications offer a similar feature in their print settings, with the ability to choose a source (input) colour space, and a print (output) colour space.

MENU FUNCTIONS

This sections 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. However, several of the driver settings can be left at “Printer Setting,” which will then default to the settings entered in these printer menus.

Factory default settings are shown in bold type in the following tables.

In the normal operating condition, known as “standby,” the printer’s LCD window will show “ONLINE.” In this condition, to enter the menu system, press the +/- keys on the operator panel to move up and down through the list of menus until the menu you wish to view is displayed. Then proceed as follows:

OVERLAYS AND MACROS

WHAT ARE OVERLAYS AND MACROS?

If you would like to print on special stationery, such as forms and letterhead, but do not want to use pre-printed stationery, you can create your own using these advanced features.

You can use PostScript overlays to generate all your special stationery and store it in the printer for use whenever you need it. If you have chosen to install the PCL driver, macros perform a similar function.

NOTE

PostScript overlays are not available for Windows 95/98/Me.

You can create several overlays or macros, and combine them in any way you like to produce a variety of forms and other special stationery. Each image can be printed on just the first page of a document, on all pages, on alternate pages, or just the pages that you specify.

CREATING POSTSCRIPT OVERLAYS

Three steps are required to create an overlay:

1. Create the form data using your own application software and print it to a printer (.PRN) file.
2. Use the Storage Device Manager utility software supplied on CD with your printer to create a “project file,” import the .PRN file(s), and download the generated filter (.HST) file to the printer. The project file will contain one or more overlay images which are functionally related, such as the cover page and the continuation page images for business letters.
3. Use downloaded files to define your overlays ready for use when printing your documents.

When printing overlay files to disk, do not select any special features, such as two-sided printing or multiple copies. These are not appropriate to overlays, they apply only to your final documents.

CREATING THE OVERLAY IMAGE

1. Use your preferred application, perhaps a graphics program, to create the required overlay image and save it.
2. Open your application's Print... dialogue.
3. Make sure that the selected printer name (1) is that of your PostScript printer driver.
4. Select the Print To File (2) option.
5. Click the Properties button (3) to open the Document Properties window.

Print Printer: Name: Printer Name Status: Idle Type: Where: Comment: Print to File Page range: Current page Pages: Enter page numbers and/or page ranges separated by connas. For example, L1/S-12 Print size: Document Print: All pages in range Copies: Number of copies: 1 Collage Zoom: Pages per sheet: 1 page Scale to paper size: No Scaling Options... OK Close

1. On the Overlay tab, choose Create Form from the dropdown list (4).
2. Click OK to close the Document Properties window.
3. Click OK again to close the Print dialogue.
4. When prompted for a print file name, enter a meaningful name with the extension .PRN.
5. Close your application.

CREATE AND DOWNLOAD THE PROJECT

1. From the Windows Start menu, start Storage Device Manager (SDM) and allow SDM to discover the printer.
2. Choose Printers→New Project.
3. Choose Printers→Add File to Project.
4. Set the Files of Type drop-down list to PRN Files(*.prn).
5. Navigate to the folder where the .PRN files are stored and select one or more of these to include in your overlay set.

You can have more than one printer (.PRN) file in a project. For example, one for top pages and another for continuation pages. Use standard Windows techniques (Shift or Ctrl keys) to select multiple files simultaneously if you need to.

1. Click Open to add these files to the current project.
2. When a message box appears confirming that a filter file has been created, click OK to clear the message.

3. The project window will display one .HST file for each printer file added. Make a careful note of each of these names. Ensure that you note them exactly as they appear, they are case sensitive, and you will need them later.

4. Choose Projects→Save Project and enter a meaningful name (e.g. “Letter Stationery”) so that you can recognise it later if you want to modify it.

5. Choose Projects→Send Project Files to Printer to download the project to the printer.

If you have a hard disk in the printer, SDM will automatically download files to it. If not, SDM will download files to flash memory. If you have a hard disk but still prefer to download to flash memory, double-click the file name in the Project window and under Volume, type in %Flash0% and then click OK.

1. When the message “Command Issued” appears confirming that the download is complete, click OK to clear the message.

TEST PRINTING THE OVERLAY

1. Click on the printer icon for the relevant printer and choose Printers→Test Form.
2. In the Test PostScript Form window, to test each overlay select it and click OK. There will be a short pause while the printer processes the form, and then it will print.
3. When each overlay has been tested, click Exit.

REPLACING CONSUMABLE ITEMS

This section explains how to replace consumable items when due. As a guide, the life expectancy of these items is:

Toner—5,000 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 2,500 pages, conversely at 2.5% there is sufficient toner for 10,000 pages in the cartridge.

The printer is shipped with sufficient toner for 3,000 A4 pages in the print cartridges of which 1,500 A4 pages of toner are used to charge the image drum.

Image drum — 17,000 pages (calculated on typical office usage where 20% of printing is 1 page only, 30% is 3 page documents and 50% is print runs of 15 pages or more).

Transfer belt — Approximately 50,000 A4 pages.

Fuser — Approximately 45,000 A4 pages.

TONER CARTRIDGE REPLACEMENT

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. Follow any regulations, recommendations, etc., which may be in force concerning waste recycling.

If you do spill any toner powder, lightly brush it off. If this is not enough, use a cool, damp cloth to remove any residue. Do not use hot water, and never use solvents of any kind. They will make stains permanent.

WARNING!

If you inhale any toner or get it in your eyes, drink a little water or bathe your eyes liberally in cold water. Seek medical attention immediately.

Switch off the printer and allow the fuser to cool for about 10 minutes before opening the cover.

1. Press the cover release and open the printer's top cover fully.

1. 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. If the drum unit needs to be out of the printer for longer than this, please wrap the cartridge inside a black plastic bag to keep it away from light. Never expose the drum to direct sunlight or very bright room lighting.

1. Remove the new cartridge from its box but leave its wrapping material in place for the moment.
2. Gently shake the new cartridge from end to end several times to loosen and distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge.

INSTALLING UPGRADES

This section explains how to install optional equipment into your printer. This includes:

duplex (two sided printing) unit;

additional RAM memory;
10GB hard disk drive.

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.

NOTE

The duplex unit requires an additional 64MB memory upgrade.

The duplex unit slides straight into the rear of the printer and requires no tools to install.

1. Unpack the new unit and remove any transit material from it.
2. Switch the printer off. It is not necessary to disconnect the AC power cable.
3. Ensure that the unit is the right way up, as shown, and push it into the slot behind the rear panel. The panel will swing inwards as you push the unit into it. Push the unit all the way in until it stops and latches home.

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. When a jam occurs, the printer immediately stops, and the LCD window on the operator panel informs you of the event. If printing multiple pages (or copies), do not assume that having cleared an obvious sheet that others will not also be stopped somewhere along the path. These must also be removed in order to clear the jam fully and restore normal operation.

1. If a sheet is well advanced out of the top of the printer, simply grip it and pull gently to draw it fully out. If it does not remove easily, do not use excessive force. It can be removed from the rear later.
2. Press the cover release and open the printer's top cover fully.

CLEARING PAPER JAMS > 194

1. 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.

1. Repeat this removal procedure for each of the four image drum units.
2. Look into the printer to check whether any sheets of paper are visible on any part of the belt unit.

Technical diagram of a mechanical device with numbered components labeled 1 to 4

To remove a sheet with its leading edge at the front of the belt (1), carefully lift the sheet from the belt and pull it forwards into the internal drum cavity and withdraw the sheet.

CAUTION!

Do not use any sharp or abrasive objects to separate sheets from the belt. This may damage the belt surface.

To remove a sheet from the central area of the belt (2), carefully separate the sheet from the belt surface and withdraw the sheet.

Technical diagram of a device interior with numbered components labeled 1 to 4

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.

NOTE

If the sheet is well advanced into the fuser (only a short length is still visible), do not attempt to pull it back. Follow the next step to remove it from the rear of the printer.

1. 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.
