Networking the printer
Installing the printer on a network
Follow the instructions for the networking method you want to use. Make sure the selected network is set up and working
properly, and that all relevant devices are turned on. For more information on your specific network, see your network
documentation or consult the person who set up the network.
Installing an internal wireless print server
The printer you purchased may contain an internal wireless print server that allows the printer to be used on a wireless
network. If your printer does not have an internal wireless print server already installed, you can purchase one separately.
Use the following instructions to install the internal wireless print server:
1 Turn off your printer, and then unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
CAUTION: Failure to unplug the printer can cause damage to your printer and to the internal wireless print server.
Make sure the printer is turned off and the power cord is unplugged from the wall outlet before you proceed.
2 Remove the back cover plate by pushing the tab down and then pulling the cover away from the printer.
3 Unpack the internal wireless print server. Save the packaging materials.
CAUTION: Wireless print servers are easily damaged by static electricity. Touch something metal such as the printer
frame before you touch the wireless print server.
4 Align the edges of the internal wireless print server with the guides on the left and right, and then slide the wireless
print server into the printer until it snaps into place.
5 Make sure the antenna points up.
6 Attach the adhesive label with the MAC address to the back of the printer. You will need this later to in order to network
the printer.
You are now ready to configure the internal wireless print server to work on your wireless network.
Finding your MAC address
In order to complete the network configuration of your printer, you may need the media access control (MAC) address of
the printer or print server. The MAC address is a series of letters and numbers located on the back of your printer.
If you purchased the internal wireless print server separately, the MAC address appears on an adhesive label that came
with the wireless print server. Attach the adhesive label to your printer so you will be able to find the MAC address when
you need it.

Partial document or photo prints
These are possible solutions. Try one or more of the following:
Check document placement
Make sure the document or photo is loaded facedown on the scanner glass in the upper left corner.
Check paper size
Make sure the paper size being used matches the document or photo size you selected.
Photo smudges
To prevent smudging, avoid touching the surface of a printed photo. For best results, remove each printed sheet individually
from the paper exit tray, and allow the prints to dry at least 24 hours before stacking, displaying, or storing.
Ink levels seem incorrect
There are possible solutions. Try one or more of the following:
Are you printing graphics or photos?
When you print documents with a large number of graphics, or with the Photo Quality/Speed setting, the printer uses more
ink. The type of documents you print and the print quality you select affect the amount of ink the printer uses.
Are you printing a large file?
The ink levels displayed in the printer software are not updated during a print job; they represent the ink level at the
beginning of a print job. The ink levels may seem inconsistent in the Printing Status window when you are printing a large
file.
Ink levels seem to go down too quickly
These are possible solutions. Try one or more of the following:
Are you printing photos or documents with a large number of graphics?
Because photos and graphics require more ink than text documents, ink usage increases when you print photos or
graphics.
Are you printing with the Best Quality/Speed setting?
To reduce ink usage, select Best only when you are printing on photo or heavyweight matte paper. All other paper types
print best at a lower Quality/Speed setting. Use the Quick Print or Normal setting to print most text documents.

The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive RENs
on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not
exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact your local
telephone company. For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for this product is part of the product identifier that has the format
US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (for example, 03 is a REN of 0.3). For earlier products,
the REN is shown separately on the label.
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of
service may be required. If advance notice is not practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. You will also
be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

If this happens, the telephone company will provide advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted
service.
If you experience trouble with this equipment, for repair or warranty information, contact Lexmark International, Inc. at www.lexmark.com or

paragraph for contact information.
Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission, public service commission, or corporation
commission for information.
If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, ensure the installation of this equipment does not disable
your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.
Telephone companies report that electrical surges, typically lightning transients, are very destructive to customer terminal equipment connected
to AC power sources. This has been identified as a major nationwide problem. It is recommended that the customer install an appropriate AC
surge arrestor in the AC outlet to which this device is connected. An appropriate AC surge arrestor is defined as one that is suitably rated, and
certified by UL (Underwriter's Laboratories), another NRTL (Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory), or a recognized safety certification body
in the country/region of use. This is to avoid damage to the equipment caused by local lightning strikes and other electrical surges.
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any person to use a computer or other electronic device, including fax
machines, to send any message unless said message clearly contains in a margin at the top or bottom of each transmitted page or on the first
page of the transmission, the date and time it is sent and an identification of the business or other entity, or other individual sending the message,
and the telephone number of the sending machine or such business, other entity, or individual. (The telephone number provided may not be a
900 number or any other number for which charges exceed local or long-distance transmission charges.)

Avis réservé aux utilisateurs du réseau téléphonique du Canada
Ce produit est conforme aux spécifications techniques d’Industrie Canada. Le numéro REN (ringer equivalence number : numéro d’équivalence
de sonnerie) fournit une indication du nombre maximum de terminaux pouvant être connectés à l’interface téléphonique. En bout de ligne, le
nombre d’appareils qui peuvent être connectés n’est pas directement limité, mais la somme des REN de ces appareils ne doit pas dépasser
cinq. Le numéro REN du modem est indiqué sur l’étiquette produit située à l’arrière de l’équipement.
Les compagnies de téléphone constatent que les surtensions électriques, en particulier celles dues à la foudre, entraînent d'importants dégâts
sur les terminaux privés connectés à des sources d’alimentation CA. Il s’agit-là d’un problème majeur d’échelle nationale. En conséquence, il
vous est recommandé de brancher un parasurtenseur dans la prise de courant à laquelle l’équipement est connecté. Utilisez un parasurtenseur
répondant à des caractéristiques nominales satisfaisantes et certifié par le laboratoire d’assureurs UL (Underwriter’s Laboratories), un autre
laboratoire agréé de type NRTL (Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory) ou un organisme de certification agréé dans votre région ou pays.
Ceci prévient tout endommagement de l’équipement causé par les orages et autres surtensions électriques.

Power Saver
This product is designed with an energy-saving mode called Power Saver. The Power Saver Mode is equivalent to the EPA Sleep Mode. The
Power Saver Mode saves energy by lowering power consumption during extended periods of inactivity. The Power Saver Mode is automatically
engaged after this product is not used for a specified period of time, called the Power Saver Timeout.

Off mode
If this product has an off mode which still consumes a small amount of power, then to completely stop product power consumption, disconnect
the power supply cord from the wall outlet.
Total energy usage
It is sometimes helpful to calculate the total product energy usage. Since power consumption claims are provided in power units of Watts, the
power consumption should be multiplied by the time the product spends in each mode in order to calculate energy usage. The total product
energy usage is the sum of each mode's energy usage.
