Features of the Printer  
This printer is designed especially for office workgroups, both for shared usage within network  
environment, and for one-to-one usage by being connected directly to your computer.  
High Productivity  
As this printer comes with a 27 pages per minute (ppm) engine and offers a variety of paper  
handling options, handling documents will be more efficient. Proof print function is one of the  
supporting feature for making multiple original printing which allows you to confirm that the  
document prints as expected before printing many.  
Optional Printer Hard Disk Type 185 is required.  
Versatile Paper Handling Options  
This printer offers both versatile input and output paper handling options. Input capacity can be  
raised to 3,100 with the optional paper bank (PS420) and the bypass tray (Bypass Tray Type 270)  
to reduce the inconvenience of reloading paper. For an output device, collating and stapling  
capability is available with the optional finisher (SR720).  
Optional Printer Feature Expander Type 185 (32MB or 64MB) or Printer Hard Disk Type 185 is

PCL Printer Drivers  
Printer drivers allow the computer to communicate with the printer via a printer language. Two  
kinds of PCL printer drivers, PCL 6 and PCL 5e, are included in the CD-ROM that comes with  
this machine. We recommend the PCL 6 as your first choice. However, some of your applications  
might require the installation of the PCL 5e printer driver. In this case, you might configure to  
install and print by using PCL 5e in addition to the PCL 6.  
Adobe PostScript Printer Drivers and PPD Files  
The Adobe PostScript printer drivers and the PPD files are included in the CD-ROM that comes  
with this unit. Adobe PostScript printer driver allows the computer to communicate with the  
printer by means of a printer language. The PPD files allow the printer driver to enable the printer  
specific functions.

Installing Printer Driver  
 
Auto Run  
Auto Run  
You can install the printer driver by using Auto Run.  
Auto Run is available for the following operating systems:  
Windows 95/98  
Windows NT 4.0  
If your system is Windows 3.1x or Macintosh, see information on installing the printer driv-  
er.  
Before starting this installation, close all documents and applications. In a network  
environment, confirm that users who are logged on are disconnected. Be sure to do  
this when it will create the least interference with other users.  
After installing a printer driver, you must restart the computer.  
If your system is Windows NT 4.0, installing a printer driver requires Full Control  
access permission. Members of the Administrators, Server Operators, Print  
Operators, and Power Users groups have Full Control permission by default. When  
you install a printer driver, log on under Full Control permission.  
If your system uses Windows NT 4.0 and Service Pack 4 is installed, you might not  
install the PCL 6/5e printer driver using Auto Run. In this case, use [Add Printer  
Wizard] in the [Printers] window to install the printer driver or install Service Pack 5  
in the computer before installing the printer driver.  
Auto Run might not automatically work with certain OS settings. In this case, start  
"SETUP.EXE" to install printer driver on the root.  
If you want to cancel Auto Run, insert the CD-ROM while pressing the {SHIFT} key  
until your computer finishes accessing the CD-ROM.  
Using the Shared Printer on Windows NT 4.0 for Windows 95/98 Client  
If you want to share the printer on Windows NT 4.0, you must not install the printer driver using  
Auto Run. Install the printer driver of the Windows 95/98 for alternate driver.  
For more information on installing the printer driver as an alternate driver: See Uninstalling  
Installing by Auto Run  
Follow these steps to install the printer driver on Windows 95/98/NT 4.0.  
Never have two versions of the same printer driver installed on your system at the same  
time. When upgrading to a new version of the printer driver, uninstall the old version,  
and then install the new one. For more information on uninstalling the printer driver and

Using Adobe PageMaker Version 6.0 or 6.5  
If you use the printer under Windows 95/98/NT 4.0 with Adobe PageMaker, you need to copy  
the PPD file to the PageMaker folder.  
The PPD file is the file with extension ".ppd". It is in the folder  
\PS\WIN95_98\(Language)\DISK1\on the CD-ROM.  
The [WIN95_98] folder, inside the [PS] folder is for the Windows 95/98 operating  
system. Use the folder at this level that is appropriate for the operating system you are  
using.  
The third folder, "(Language)" may be substituted by appropriate language name.  
Copy this file to the PageMaker folder.  
For the PageMaker 6.0 default installation, the folder is "C:\PM6\RSRC\PPD4", and  
for the PageMaker 6.5 default installation, the directory is  
"C:\PM65\RSRC\USENGLISH\PPD4". The "USENGLISH" may be different,  
depending on your language selection.

Using the Proof Print  
Use this function to print only one printing of a multiple print job. The other printings are saved on  
the optional hard disk. The saved job can be printed from the machine's operation panel.  
To use this function, the optional hard disk must be installed.  
If the application has a collate option, confirm that it is not selected before sending a  
print job. By default, proof print jobs are automatically collated by the printer driver. If  
the collate option is selected from the application print dialog box, more printings than  
intended may be printed.  
You can identify the file you want to print by the User IDs and the time when the job was  
stored.  
The actual number of pages the printer can save depends on the contents of the print  
images. As an example, the printer can save up to 30 jobs or 2,000 pages. It depends on  
the data volume.  
If the first printing of the proof print file is not what you expected and you do not want to  
print the remaining printings, delete the proof print file using the operation panel. If you  
print the remaining printings of the proof print file, the job in the printer is deleted
