Paper recommendations

Loading paper in the main unit tray

• Insert paper with the face down, and adjust paper guides to the paper format to avoid feed failure, skewing, and

paper jams.

• Amount of loaded paper must not exceed the loading mark. If the loading mark is exceeded, this may cause feed

failure, skewing, and paper jams.

• Adding paper in the pile must be avoided because it may cause double feeding.

• When withdrawing the cassette from the main unit, always support it with both hands to avoid dropping it.

• If you use paper already printed by your machine or another printer, the printing quality may not be optimal.

Handling of paper

• Curling must be corrected before printing.

• Curls must not exceed 10 mm.

• Care must be taken with storage to prevent feed faults and image defects due to leaving the paper in conditions of

high humidity.

Humidity control

• Paper which has become damp, or paper which has been left unused for a very long time, must not be used.

• After opening the paper, it must be kept in a plastic bag.

• Paper with waved ends, paper which is creased, paper with crumples, and any other non-normal paper must not

be used.

Network features

Network features

You may connect your multifunction terminal to a wireless

network.

However, practical knowledge of your computer

configuration is required to set up a network.

You can connect your machine to a PC using a USB cable

or make a wireless connection (via radio) with a PC or

network.

Type of radio network

A radio network or WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network)

is created when at least two computers, printers or other

peripheral devices communicate with each other in a

network via radio waves (high frequency waves). The

transmission of data in the radio network is based on the

standards 802.11b and 802.11g. According to how the

network is set up, it may be described as an infrastructure

network or an ad-hoc network.

Radio infrastructure network

In an infrastructure network, several devices

communicate via a central access point (a gateway or

router). All data is sent to the access point (gateway or

router) from where it is re-distributed.

Radio ad-hoc network

In an ad-hoc network, the devices communicate directly

with each other without passing through an access point.

The speed of communication across the whole radio

network is as fast as the weakest connection in the

network. The speed of communication is also dependent

on spatial distance between transmitter and receiver, as

well as the number of barriers, such as walls or ceilings.

Radio networks (WLAN)

Three steps are necessary to incorporate your machine

into a radio network (WLAN):

1Configure the network to your PC.

2Set up the parameters for your machine so that it

can function in a network.

3Having set up the parameters for your device,

install the Companion Suite Pro software onto your

PC with the necessary printer drivers.

Once the machine is incorporated into a WLAN network,

you can from your PC:

• print documents on the multifunction machine from

your usual applications,

• scan color, grey scale or black and white documents

on your PC.

Important

If you have a WLAN adaptor, you

can incorporate your machine as a

network printer into a radio network.

This works only with an approved

adaptor that you can obtain from our

ordering department. For further

information, contact

http://www.okiprintingsolutions.com.

CAUTION

Beware, when you are using a

wireless connection, that certain

items of medical equipment,

sensitive or security systems may

be affected by the radio

transmissions of your device; in all

cases, please follow safety

guidelines closely.

Important Please note that in ad-hoc mode,

the WPA/WPA2 encryption method

is not available.

Important

The PC and all other devices must

have their parameters set up to the

same network as the multifunction

machine. All the details needed for

setting up the device, such as the

network names (SSID), type of radio

network, encryption key, IP address

or subnetwork mask, must match

the specifications of the network.

You will find these details on your

PC or on the Access Point.

To find out how to set up the

parameters for your PC, please

consult the users’ manual for your

WLAN adaptor. For large networks,

please seek the advice of your

network administrator.

Connect your WLAN adaptor

Your machine belongs to a new generation of terminals

that you can incorporate into a WLAN network using a

WLAN USB key.

1Plug your WLAN USB key into the USB port of your

machine.

Configure your network

Creating or rejoining a network

Before attempting to use a WLAN adaptor on your

machine, you must enter the parameters that will allow a

WLAN network to recognise your machine.

On your machine you will find simple instructions

that guide you step by step through the set-up of your

network. Just follow them!

! 281 - SETUP / WLAN / CONFIG. ASS.

4Select your existing network, or select NEW

NETWORK to create it, using the keys ! or " and

confirm with OK.

5 SSID appears on the screen, enter the name of

your network using the numerical keypad, pressing

the keys one after the other until you obtain the

name you want (32 characters maximum) and

confirm with OK.

6 AD-HOC MODE or INFRA. MODE appear on the

screen. Go back to the beginning of the chapter

and make your choice.

Select one of these modes and confirm with OK.

- If you choose AD-HOC mode, the sub-menu

CHANNEL appears, enter a figure between 1

and 13 (1 to 11 for the US) and confirm with OK.

7Select your encryption method, OFF, WEP or

WPA, and confirm with OK:

- If you choose WEP, enter the WEP key that you

are using on your network.

- If you choose WPA, enter the WPA or WPA2

key that you are using on your network.

Note

You can be sure of perfect

communication if you use an

approved adaptor in conjunction with

your PC.

All of the latest printer drivers for the

approved adaptor may be found on

our website together with further

information:

http://www.okiprintingsolutions.com.

Important

Your machine’s network radio

adaptor transmits data using the

radio protocol IEEE 802.11g; it can

also be incorporated into an existing

IEEE 802.11b network.

When connecting to your machine,

only use the approved adaptor.

Other transmitting or receiving

adaptors may damage your device.

Irrespective of whether you use your

machine in an infrastructure or ad-

hoc network, you must set up certain

network and security parameters

(for example, the Service-Set-ID

(SSID) and the encryption key).

These must match the network’s

specifications.

Note

We recommend that the settings of

your WLAN network should only be

changed by a person with a good

knowledge of the configuration of your

computer.

Note If you choose an existing network,

steps 5 and 6 (and possibly 7) are

carried out automatically.

Important Please note that in ad-hoc mode,

the WPA/WPA2 encryption method

is not available.
