Chapter 2Setting Up
Selecting a Location for the Printer
A proper location helps to ensure that your printer provides you with
the long service life for which it is designed. Double check to make
sure that the location you select has the following characteristics.
• Choose a location that is well-ventilated.
• Make sure there is no chance of ammonia or other organic gas-
ses being generated in the area.
• The power outlet you plan to connect to for power should be
nearby and unobstructed.
• Make sure that the machine is not exposed to direct sunlight.
• Avoid areas in the direct air flow of air conditioners, heaters, or
ventilators, and areas subjected to temperature and humidity
extremes.
• Choose a firm, level surface where the printer will not be
exposed to strong vibration.
• Keep the printer away from any objects that might block its heat
vents.
• Do not locate the printer near curtains or other combustible
objects.
• Choose an area where there is no possibility of the printer being
splashed with water or other liquids.
• Make sure that the surrounding area is clean, dry, and free of
dust.
Power Source
The power source requirements for this printer are as follows.
• Power source: 120V, 50-60Hz
• Voltage fluctuation: Within ± 10%
• Frequency fluctuation: Within ± 3Hz

Chapter 2Setting Up
NOTES
• Use a power source with minimal voltage and frequency fluctu-
ation.
• Only use an outlet that is rated for the voltage capacity specified
for this printer.
• Be sure to plug the power cord all the way into the outlet. The
outlet should be located near the printer and easily accessible so
you can unplug the power cord immediately should any problem
occur.
• Make sure that the outlet is visible, and not hidden behind the
printer or any other object.
• If any other electrical equipment is plugged into the same outlet,
make sure that the capacity of the outlet is not exceeded.
• If you use an extension cord, make sure its capacity is greater
than the power consumption of the printer. Using an extension
cord with a lower capacity creates the danger of fire.
• Never use a multiple socket to connect other appliances or
machines to the same outlet being used to power the printer.
Grounding
Always ground the printer to guard against the danger of electric
shock. To ground the printer, connect the grounding wire to the
ground terminal of the electrical outlet you are plugging into or to a
grounding contact that complies with local electrical standards in
your area.
Contact your Technical Representative if you are unable to make
grounding connections yourself.
NOTE
Never connect the grounding wire to a gas pipe, the
grounding wire for a telephone, or a water pipe.

Operating Environment
The following describes the operating environment required when
using the printer.
Temperature: 50°F to 95°F (10°C to 35°C) with a fluctuation of
50°F (10°C) per hour.
Humidity: 15% to 85% RH with a fluctuation of 20% per hour.
Operation
To ensure the optimum performance of the printer, follow the pre-
cautions listed below.
• Never turn the printer off or open any of its covers while a print-
ing operation is being performed.
• Never locate any object that generates magnetic force, flamma-
ble gas, or is flammable near the printer.
• When unplugging the power cord, grasp the plug and never pull
on the cord. A damaged cord creates the danger of fire or elec-
tric shock.
• Never touch the power cord when your hands are wet. Doing so
creates the danger of electric shock.
• Always unplug the power cord before moving the printer. Fail-
ure to do so can damage the power cord, creating the danger of
fire or electric shock.
• Always unplug the power cord if you do not plan to use the
printer for a long time.

Chapter 2Setting Up
• Never try to remove any panel or cover that is secured. The inte-
rior of the printer contains high-voltage circuitry which creates
the danger of electric shock when exposed.
• Never try to modify the printer. Doing so creates the danger of
fire or electric shock.
• Never place any heavy objects on the power cord, or pull on it or
bend it. Doing so creates the danger of fire or electric shock.
• Always make sure the printer is not setting on the electrical cord
or communications cables of any other electrical equipment.
Also make sure that cords and cables do not get into the printer’s
mechanism. Any of these conditions create the danger of mal-
function and fire.
• Always take care so that paper clips, staples, or other small
pieces of metal do not get into the printer through its vents or
other openings. Such objects create the danger of fire or electric
shock.
• Never place containers of water or any other liquid on the
printer. Liquids getting into the printer create the danger of fire
or electric shock.
• Should metal or liquid accidently get inside the printer, immedi-
ately turn it off, unplug the power cord, and contact your techni-
cal representative. Failure to take immediate action creates the
danger of fire or electric shock.
• Always turn the printer off immediately whenever it becomes
very hot, or when it emits smoke, an unusual odor, or noise.
Immediately turn off the printer, unplug it, and contact your
technical representative. Failure to take immediate action cre-
ates the danger of fire or electric shock.
NOTE
Be sure to locate the printer in a well-ventilated location.
A negligible amount of ozone is generated during normal
operation of this printer. Because of this, an unpleasant
odor may result when the printer is used for extensive
printing in a poorly ventilated area. For comfortable,
healthy, and safe operation, be sure to locate the printer in
a well-ventilated area.

TIMING
Sets the timing of “Busy to Ack” in the communication format
between the printer and PC. Basically, you don’t need to change
the setting. However, depending on the PC you are using, it may
not be able to support a proper communication between the
printer and PC. In such a case, change the setting after verifying
the PC specification.
A-B: Ack in Busy.
A-B-A: Ack while Busy.
B-A: Ack after Busy.
ADOBE PROTOCOL
This item appears only when PostScript is installed.
Standard: Tells the driver to send data to the printer in a ASCII
format.
Binary: Tells the driver to send data to the printer in a binary for-
mat.
TBCP: This allows you to change between ASCII and binary for-
mat by a particular control code.
TIME OUT
The Time Out setting determines the time out period from the end
of the print job to the ready state. After the time out period, the
printer searches for next data from interface channel.

Font
A font is a specific group of characters that have common style and
size characteristics. Your printer can store a variety of different fonts
in its memory for printing. Since these fonts reside in printer mem-
ory, they are called resident fonts.
The PageWorks 20 uses two types of resident fonts: scalable fonts
and bitmap fonts. Appendix B of this User’s Manual contains a table
that shows samples of all the available resident fonts.
In addition to resident fonts, you can also download non-resident
soft fonts for printing.
Scalable Fonts
Scalable fonts (also called outline font) can be enlarged or reduced
(scaled) to suit your printing needs. There are few limitations on the
sizes that you can specify for scalable fonts.
Bitmap Fonts
A bitmap font is stored in printer memory as a set of characters and
symbols with a specific size and unique design. Each bit of the font
is precisely mapped, so this type of font cannot be scaled to different
sizes.
The PageWorks 20 maintains 10 TrueType fonts and 35 Intellifont
typefaces in memory.
Minolta Font Manager
The Minolta Font Manager has screen fonts for Windows 3.1x and
Windows 95, and contains 96 True Type fonts. They can all be dis-
played and printed as scalable fonts.

The imaging cartridge contains the print drum and a supply of toner.
If you print typical business A4 size page with 5% coverage of
toner, the imaging cartridge lasts approximately 10,000 pages. How-
ever, the life of the imaging cartridge varies with the density of toner
for your pages.
If the TONER IS LOW message appears on the control panel, the
toner level in the imaging cartridge is getting low and print quality
will degrade. You need to get ready to replace the imaging cartridge.
To use as much of the remaining toner as possible, remove the imag-
ing cartridge, shake it 2 or 3 times and reinstall it in the printer. If
print quality is not satisfactory, you should replace the imaging car-
tridge with a new one according to the following procedure.
If the TONER EMPTY message appears on the control panel, the
toner in the imaging cartridge has run out. You must replace the
imaging cartridge with a new one immediately.
1. Turn the printer off and then dis-
connect the power cord and inter-
face cable from the printer.
2. If you have pulled out the paper
exit tray, push it into the printer
before opening the upper cover.

Installing Options
You can expand printer memory by adding single in-line memory
(SIMM).
Your printer provides 4MB as standard memory and has two mem-
ory connectors into which you can install SIMMs to expand the total
memory available up to the maximum 68MB. SIMMs with 4MB,
8MB, 16MB, or 32MB of memory are available from a computer
shop.
WARNING
The SIMM is easily damaged by static electricity. Touch
something metal before you touch the SIMM.
- Take the SIMM out of the shipping box.
- Turn the printer off, and then disconnect the power cord and inter-
face cable from the printer.
1. Pressing the upper cover lock
release button, open the upper
cover.
2. Loosen two screws to remove the
right side cover.
