Chapter 5 Paper Selection This chapter explains the following topics: • General Guidelines • Special Paper • Paper Type 1.2 Paper Specifications The following table summarizes the basic paper specifications. Details are given on the following pages. Item 1. General Guidelines The printer is designed to print on high-quality copier bond paper (the kind used in ordinary dry copier machines), but it can also accept a variety of other types of paper within the limits specified below.
Chapter 5 Paper Selection MP tray Size Cassette or MP tray Size Monarch 3-7/8 × 7-1/2 inches Ledger 11 × 17 inches Business 4-1/8 × 9-1/2 inches Legal 8-1/2 × 14 inches Commercial 9 3-7/8 × 8-7/8 inches Letter 8-1/2 × 11 inches Commercial 6-3/4 3-5/8 × 6-1/2 inches Statement 5-1/2 × 8-1/2 inches International DL 11 × 22 cm Folio 210 × 330 mm International C5 16.2 × 22.
Chapter 5 Paper Selection Wavy or tight edges can cause misfeeding and alignment anomalies. The moisture content of the paper should be 4 to 6%. To ensure the proper moisture content, it is important to store the paper in a controlled environment. Some tips on moisture control are: • Store paper in a cool, dry location. • Keep the paper in its wrapping as long as possible. Rewrap paper that is not in use. • Store paper in its original carton. Place a pallet, etc.
Chapter 5 Paper Selection 2.2 Adhesive-Backed Labels The basic rule for printing on adhesive labels is that the adhesive must never come into contact with any part of the printer. Adhesive paper sticking to the drum or rollers will damage the printer. Label paper must be manually fed. Label paper has a structure comprised of three layers, as shown in the figure below. The top sheet is printed on. The adhesive layer consists of pressure-sensitive adhesives.
Chapter 5 Paper Selection 3. Paper Type The printer is capable of printing under the optimum setting for the type of paper being used. Setting the paper type for the paper source from the printer’s operator panel will cause the printer to automatically select the paper source and print in the mode best suited to that type of paper. A different paper type setting can be made for each paper source including the MP tray.
Chapter 6 Maintenance This chapter explains how to replace the toner container and the waste toner box and how to clean the internal parts of the printer. When you replace the toner container, make sure to clean the internal parts of the printer. 1.2 Replenishing Toner Replace the toner container using the following procedures. 1 Open the printer front cover all the way. 2 Push the lock lever (blue colored) up and gently remove the toner container until its handle appears. 1.
Chapter 6 Maintenance 3 Grasp the handle on the toner container, push the lock lever up again and gently lift the toner container. 4 Seal up the old toner container with the supplied plastic bag and dispose of it. 7 Grasp the handle on the toner container and insert the toner container along the rail of the printer. When inserting, be sure that the gear side of the toner container faces the printer. Leave the front cover open to allow insertion of the waste toner box.
Chapter 6 Maintenance 10 11 Remove the seal from the rear of the old waste toner box, and then close the opening of the box with the seal. Seal up the old waste toner box with the supplied plastic bag and dispose of it. 13 Pull the main charger approximately 5 cm (2 inches) out. 14 While avoiding the main charger roller (A) to be in contact with the grid cleaner pad, push and pull the main charger several times. (Do not push the main charger all the way in.
Chapter 6 Maintenance 16 Remove the blue colored cleaning brush. 17 Pull up the lock lever on the left side of the printer, and open the left cover 1. 18 Clean the separator by moving the cleaning brush from left to right along with the separator. 19 Replacing of toner and cleaning of the internal parts of the printer are completed. Close the front cover and the left cover 1. Allow approximately five minutes before using the printer until the main charger unit has dried up.
Appendix A Fonts This appendix explains the types of fonts you can use with the printer. A font is a set of characters of a particular design. The design is referred to as a typeface. Several characteristics identify a font. These include the code set (For details on the code sets, read the Programming Manual on the supplied Kyocera Mita Digital Library CD-ROM and Kyocera Mita Network Library CD-ROM), spacing, pitch, height, style, stroke weight, and typeface family.
Appendix A Fonts 3 PCL (Scalable and Bitmap) Fonts A-2
Appendix A Fonts 3 KPDL Fonts (1) A-3
Appendix A Fonts 3 KPDL Fonts (2) A-4
Appendix B Expansion Memory This appendix first explains how to remove the main circuit board and then how to install a DIMM (Dual In-line Memory Module) on the main circuit board. Expanded printer memory enables you to print more complex pages, download more fonts, and define more macros. 1. Removing the Main Circuit Board The main circuit board of the printer is equipped with two sockets for memory expansion. Expansion memory is available in the form of DIMMs. 1.
Appendix B Expansion Memory 2. Installing DIMMs 2.1 Removing DIMM DIMMs to be used To remove a DIMM, carefully pull the end clips outwards, then pull the DIMM out of the socket. See your Kyocera Mita dealer for purchasing information of the DIMMs that are best suited for use with this printer. 16 MB, 32 MB, 64 MB, and 128 MB DIMMs can be used for memory expansion.
Appendix C Host Computer Interface This appendix explains the signals used in the printer’s parallel and RS-232C interfaces. It also lists pin assignments, signal functions, timings, connector specifications, and voltage levels. The RS-232C protocols are also covered. Finally, it explains how to use the printer in a multi-computer environment. This appendix explains the following topics: • Parallel Interface • Serial Interface • RS-232C Protocol • RS-232C Cable Connection 1. Parallel Interface 1.
Appendix C Host Computer Interface Detailed descriptions of the signals follow. Strobe* [nStrobe] (Pin 1) A negative-going Strobe* pulse causes the printer to read and latch the data on the Data 0 [1] to Data 7 [8] signal lines. Data 0 [1] to Data 7 [8] (Pins 2 to 9) These eight signals form the data byte sent from the host computer to the printer. Data 7 [8] is the most significant bit. Acknowledge* [nAck] (Pin 10) This negative-going pulse acknowledges the previous character received by the printer.
Appendix C Host Computer Interface 3. RS-232C Protocol A protocol is a set of rules the computer follows in sending data to the printer. They are indicated on the status page. Parameters can be changed from the operator panel. See Changing Serial Interface Modes on page 3-19. The parameters and their identification codes are given below.
Appendix C Host Computer Interface 4. RS-232C Cable Connection 5 Baud rate=9600 bps, data bits (character length)=8 bits, stop bits=1, parity=none 4.1 Preparing an RS-232C Cable After obtaining an RS-232C cable, check that it is wired correctly, referring to the table in RS-232C Signal Pin Assignment on page C-2. If you have an IBM communication adapter cable type 1502067, you will have to resolder the wiring at the printer end of the cable. The procedure is as follows.
Appendix C Host Computer Interface 5 The Properties sheet is displayed for the selected COM port. Click on the Port Settings tab and set the port properties. 6 After setting the properties, click the OK button. DOS 1 Enter the following commands: C:\>MODE COM1:96,N,8,1,P C:\>MODE LPT1:=COM1 2 To test the interface, enter the following: CTRL P C:\>DIR CTRL P The software settings made using the above procedures are temporary. On most computers, permanent settings must be made with DIP switches.
Appendix D Option Units This appendix explains how to install each option unit. Also refer to the manuals of the respective option units. 1. Available Options The printer has the following options available. For instructions on installing individual options, refer to the documentation included with the option.
