This machine is considered a CDRH class 1 laser device, safe for office/ EDP use. The machine con-
tains 5-milliwatt, 760 - 800 nanometer wavelength, GaAIAs laser diode. Direct (or indirect reflected) eye
contact with the laser beam might cause serious eye damage. Safety precautions and interlock mech-
anisms have been designed to prevent any possible laser beam exposure to the operator.
Laser Safety:
The optical housing unit can only be repaired in a factory or at a location with the requisite equipment.
The laser subsystem is replaceable in the field by a qualified Customer Engineer. The laser chassis is
not repairable in the field. Customer engineers are therefore directed to return all chassis and laser sub-
systems to the factory or service depot when replacement of the optical subsystem is required.

This printer supports printing on print areas such as A4 Small and Letter
Small when printing from a Macintosh only with specific versions of the driver.
The LaserWriter 8.4x (or later) driver supports printing on both standard and
small print areas. However, with LaserWriter 8.3x (or earlier), the small print
area options are not displayed.
With LaserWriter 8.3x (or earlier), select A4, for example, and click [Options] in
the [Page Setup] dialog box, then use the [Larger Print Area] option. Checking [Larg-
er Print Area] produces the same printing result as LaserWriter 8.4x (or later) stan-
dard A4 print area. Unchecking the [Larger Print Area] produces the same result
as the LaserWriter 8.4x (or later) A4 Small print area.

Paper Recommendations
Note the following suggestions when handling or selecting paper used with this
printer.
Loading paper
Important
Do not use paper that is meant for an ink-jet printer. This paper may stick to
the fusing unit and cause a paper misfeed.
When printing on an OHP transparency that has a print side, load it with the
print side up. Not taking this precaution may cause the OHP transparency to
stick to the fusing unit and cause a misfeed.
Use only the recommended paper types. Print quality cannot be guaranteed
if other paper types are used. P.27 Paper not supported by this printer
Do not use paper that has already been printed on.
Storing paper
Paper should always be stored properly. Improperly stored paper might result
in poor print quality, paper misfeeds, or printer damage.
Recommendations are as follows:
Avoid storing paper in humid areas.
Avoid exposing paper to direct sunlight.
Store on a flat surface.
Keep open reams of paper in the package in which the paper came.
Types of paper and other media

The standard tray can hold up to 250 sheets. *1
PAPER FEED UNIT Type206 (option) can hold up to 500 sheets. *1
*1 : Based on paper that is 80 g/m2 (20 lb) in weight.
If paper is curled or bent, straighten it before loading.
Make sure that the stack of paper is no higher than the PAPER upper limit
mark(T) inside the tray.
Paper sizes available for the auto duplex printing are A4K, B5 JISK, Let-
terK, and LegalK. To use Legal size paper, Paper Cassette Type204 (op-
tion) is required.

Thick paper
If you print on paper heavier than 105 g/m2 (28 lb) (up to 160 g/m2 (43 lb)),
use the standard tray or the Paper Cassette Type204 (option). The print
quality on paper that is thicker cannot be guaranteed.
Make sure that the stack of paper is not higher than the LABEL upper limit
mark (T) inside the tray.
Note
The number of sheets that can be loaded may vary depending on the pa-
per thickness and paper type.
When printing on thick paper, you should select the thick paper mode
with the printer driver.
Auto duplex printing onto thick paper is not available.
Adhesive labels
When printing on adhesive labels, use the standard tray or the Paper Cas-
sette Type204 (option).
Load adhesive labels into the tray with the print side face up.
Remove any unused adhesive labels from the tray after you are finished
printing. Leaving them in the tray can cause them to curl.
When printing on adhesive labels, you should select the plain paper mode
with the printer driver.
The standard tray or the Paper Cassette Type204 can hold up to 30 sheets
of adhesive labels.
Note
The number of sheets that can be loaded may vary depending on the pa-
per thickness and paper type.
In auto duplex printing, do not use adhesive labels.
Make sure that the stack of paper is no higher than the LABEL upper limit
mark (T) inside the tray.
OHP transparencies
When printing on OHP transparencies, use the standard tray or the Paper
Cassette Type204 (option).
Load OHP transparencies into the tray with the print side face up or they
may stick to the fusing unit and cause a misfeed.
Remove any unused OHP transparencies from the tray after you are fin-
ished printing. Leaving them in the tray may cause them to stick together.
When printing on OHP transparencies, you should select the OHP trans-
parency mode with the printer driver.
Paper and Other Media

The standard tray or the Paper Cassette Type204 can hold up to 50 OHP
transparency sheets.
Note
The number of sheets that can be loaded may vary depending on the pa-
per thickness and paper type.
Make sure that the stack of paper is not higher than the OHP FILM upper
limit mark (T) inside the tray.
In auto duplex printing, do not use OHP transparencies or they may stick
to the fusing unit and cause a misfeed.
When printing on OHP transparencies, it may take 1 to 2 minutes before
printing starts in order to keep the printer in an appropriate condition.
Envelopes
When printing on envelopes, use the standard tray or the Paper Cassette
Type204 (option).
You can select the sizes for the envelopes using the operation panel.
P.79 Using the Operation Panel
Recommended types of envelopes are as follows:
Com#10 Env
DL Env
Do not stack envelopes over the limit mark.
Confirm that print side is facing up.
Confirm that there is no air in the envelopes before loading.
To get better print quality, it is recommended that you set the right, left,
top, and bottom print margins, to at least 20 mm (0.8") each.
Do not print on both sides of envelopes.
Load only one size and type of envelope at a time.
Before loading envelopes, flatten the leading edges (sides being fed into
the printer) of them by running a pencil or ruler across them.
Some kinds of envelopes might cause misfeeds, wrinkles or poor printing.
The print quality on envelopes may be uneven as different parts of an en-
velope have different thickness. Print one or two envelopes to check the
print quality.
Avoid using the non-supported envelopes listed on P.27 Paper not sup-
ported by this printer.
Auto duplex printing onto envelopes is not available.

Is the Data In indicator
blinking or lit after starting
the print job?
If the Data In indicator stays off, data is not being sent to the print-
er or the printer may be resetting the print job because there was a
long delay in receiving the data from the computer.
If the printer is using "I/O Timeout"
Increase the value of the "I/O Timeout" setting of the "IPDL-C
Menu" or "RPS2 Menu". Or set the "I/O Timeout" value to "0"
(this is the off setting). P.79 Using the Operation Panel
If the printer is connected to the computer using the par-

If you can print a test page but cannot get the printer to print when
you issue a print command from the computer, it probably means
there is a problem with the computer.

You can select the correction method used for converting the RGB data to
CMYK data.
Off
No modification to the color setting.
Vivid
Select this setting to perform CMYK conversion with enhanced saturation
and brightness to print vivid colors.
Super Vivid
Select this setting to perform CMYK conversion. The colors printed with
this setting are more vivid than those printed with the "Vivid" setting. All
of the colors in the image, especially the lighter ones, are emphasized.
Fine
Select this setting to perform color matching based on the printer's built-in col-
or rendering dictionaries, and perform CMYK conversion. It makes it possible
to print colors that are close to the displayed colors on the computer screen.
The color rendering dictionaries refer to the contents selected by Color-
Profile. This setting is useful when the application and printer driver do
not support the color matching features.
Note
The color rendering dictionary that is selected on ColorProfile is used.
Super Fine
Like the "Fine" setting, the color rendering dictionary is used, however,
output is more vivid. This setting is enabled to make light colors print
more vivid.
4.ColorProfile
You can select the color rendering dictionary (CRD). The CRD is referred to
for color matching, so you should select the appropriate CRD for the docu-
ment you are printing. The CRD you select is also referred to when Fine or
Super Fine is selected for Color Set.
Note
When selecting OHP as the paper type, the CRD automatically adjusts
to use a color profile specifically for OHP. Even though the color profile
has been optimized for OHP, the adjustments are automatic and are not in-
dicated on any of the dialog boxes. In this case, this setting is not enabled.
Photograph
Use this setting to enhance the reproduction of photos and graphics that
include midtones.
Presentation
Use this setting to enhance the reproduction of documents that contain text
and graphics. This CRD is best for printing colored charts, graphs, presen-
tation materials and so on. If you use this CRD for printing photographs,
color gradations might not be reproduced well.
Solid Color
Use this setting to print specific colors, logos and so on.

Note
Turning on toner saving can cause the output to become blurred and result
in very thin lines not printing at all. In the case of color printing, toner sav-
ing can cause colors to be different from those expected. Because of this,
use toner saving only for proofing and intermediate drafts, and turn it off
for final prints when top quality is important.
6.Dithering
You can select the image mode that is best for the type of data you are print-
ing.

Note
Selecting an OHP Transparency as the paper type automatically adjusts in-
ternal settings to use a color profile specifically for OHP. Even though the
color profile has been optimized for OHP, the adjustments are automatic
and are not indicated on any of the dialog boxes. In this case, Color Pro-
file is not enabled.

Administering Printing by User Code
This printer keeps a record of the number of pages printed under each User
Code set in the printer driver. Using eight digit codes allows you to keep a
record of the number of prints made under each User Code for three types of
printing. These are "Black" (black and white), "Two-color" (two colors or less ex-
cluding black and white) and "Full Color" (three or four colors). By assigning
User Codes to each department or user in the office, for example, you can keep
track of the number of pages printed by each department or user. Up to 100 User
Codes can be used.
Important
If you reinstall the printer driver, reinstall all User Codes.
With Windows 95/98/Me, you can only change User Codes after reinstalling
the printer driver.
With Windows 95/98/Me, if the printer name is changed after installing the
printer driver, User Codes will be cancelled.
Note
With Windows 95/98/Me, set User Codes during the IPDL-C printer driver
installation.
With Windows 2000, set User Codes on the [Statistics Code] tab of the Printer
Properties after installing the IPDL-C printer driver.
With Windows NT 4.0, set User Codes on the [Statistics Code] tab of the Printer
Properties after installing the IPDL-C printer driver.
You can view the contents of a statistics report with PRINTER MANAGER
FOR ADMINISTRATOR.
Using PRINTER MANAGER FOR ADMINISTRATOR, you can save the re-
port as a CSV file.

Using the Job Log
This printer records a job log which shows the time of each print job, the number
of pages, and the current print status of each job. The job log also shows a User
ID for each job, making it easy to find the job in the log.
You can set up a User ID using eight characters or less. This can help you distin-
guish your jobs from jobs of people who share the same User Code.
Note
Set up a User ID with the printer driver when you print.
You can change the User ID every time you print.
You can also browse the job log on the computer using PRINTER MANAGER
FOR ADMINISTRATOR/CLIENT.
Turning off the power or resetting the printer deletes the job log.
Limitation
Up to 64 User IDs are available at the same time. If the number of IDs exceeds
64, the oldest is deleted.

Color Guide
Color Printing Basics
Additive (Emitted) and Subtractive (Reflected) Color Models
All light is a mixture of red, green, and blue, which is normally called the RGB
model. When red, green, and blue are of equal intensities, the RGB color model
produces white.
Note
RGB is also called additive or emitted color. The colors on your computer
screen are produced by varying the intensities of RGB.
Printed color is a mixture of cyan, magenta, and yellow, which is normally called
the CMY color model. When mixed in equal proportions the CMY color model
produces black.
Note
CMY is also called subtractive or reflective color. The printer uses CMY toner
plus K (black) toner (CMYK color model) to provide full color printing.
red
blue
green
yellow
magenta
cyan
Appendix
112
6
The colors of the RGB color model can be mixed to produce the cyan, magenta,
and yellow of the CMY color model and vice versa. Two colors of one model are
mixed to produce the color of the other model (mixing blue and green produces
cyan, for example). The remaining color is the complement of the color pro-
duced (red in this example). Complementary colors are: red and cyan, green and
magenta, blue and yellow.
Printed Color
The printer produces full-color output using four toner colors: cyan, magenta,
yellow, and black. These four colors make up the CMYK color model.
Note
Mixing CMY in equal proportions should hypothetically produce pure black,
but imperfections in the ink cause an equal measure of these colors to produce
a muddy or dark brown. Black toner is added to the color model in order to
make it possible to produce pure black.

Low Memory
The error message shown below is output by the printer whenever there is not
enough memory to print your data.
The following are the actions you should take when you encounter memory
shortage problems. If these actions do not solve the problem individually, try
them in combination with each other.
AIncrease printer memory.
Install the optional memory unit to increase the amount of printer memory .
Reference
For more information about how to install the optional memory unit, see
the "Setup Guide" that comes with the printer.
For more information about kinds of optional memory units, see P.118
Options.
BReduce the resolution.
With the IPDL-C printer driver: On the [Print Quality] tab, select [Custom] and
click [Setting/Change]. Then set the resolution to 300dpi.
With the RICOH-SCRIPT2 printer driver: Set the resolution to 300dpi.
CTurn on Image Memory.
Use the printer's System Menu to turn on Image Memory. P.90 System
Menu
There is not enough memory in your printer to print this page.
Change print quality in the printer driver and try again.
For details, please refer to the troubleshooting section in your manual.

Moving and Transporting the Printer
R
CAUTION:
Important
Be sure to disconnect all cables from the printer before transporting it.
The printer is a precision piece of machinery. Take care to avoid damage dur-
ing shipment.
It is recommended that at least two persons are used to lift the printer. Oth-
erwise, the printer might fall and cause personal injury.
When lifting the machine, use the grips on both sides. The machine could
break or cause an injury if dropped.
Before moving the machine, unplug the power cord from the outlet. If the
cord is unplugged abruptly, it could become damaged. Damaged plugs or
cords can cause an electrical or fire hazard.
When you pull out the plug from the socket, grip the plug to avoid damaging
the cord and causing a fire or an electric shock.
When moving the printer, be sure to keep it level to avoid spilling the fuser
oil. If oil is spilt, wipe it with alkaline cleaner. Otherwise, the oily surfaces
can create the danger of slipping and personal injury.

The actual number of pages you can print with a particular toner cartridge
depends on the type and size of paper you are using, the contents of your
print images, and printing environment conditions. The life of a toner car-
tridge also shortens as the cartridge becomes older. All this means that a
toner cartridge might require replacement sooner than the normal life de-
scribed above.
Toner cartridges that come with the printer are for setup purposes, and
will not provide the number of pages described above. The average num-
ber of printable pages that can be expected from the toner cartridges in-
cluded in the printer are as follows:
Black toner cartridge : about 5,000 pages
Cyan, magenta and yellow toner cartridges : about 3,000 pages for each
Our products are engineered to meet the highest standards of quality and
functionality. When purchasing expendable supplies, we recommend using
only those specified by an authorized dealer.
