Multi Purpose Tray
The multi purpose tray can handle the same media sizes as the cassette trays but in 
weights up to 53 lb. US Bond (200 g/m²) [Ult ra heavy]. For very heavy paper stock, use 
the face up (rear) paper stacker. This ensu res that the paper path through the unit is 
almost straight.
The multi purpose tray can feed paper widths as small as 3.9 inches (100 mm) and lengths 
up to 47.25 inches (1200 mm) for banner printing.
For paper lengths exceeding 17 inches (431.8 mm) use paper stock up to 34 lb. US Bond 
(128 g/m² ) and the face up (rear) paper stacker.
Use the multi purpose tray for printing on en velopes and transparencies. Up to envelopers 
or 50 sheets of transparencies can be loaded  at one time, subject to a maximum stacking 
depth of about 3/8” (10 mm).
Watermarked, headed paper or tr ansparencies should be loaded print side up and top edge 
into the unit. Do not use the dupl ex (two-sided printing) function.
Face Down Stacker
The face down stacker on the top of the unit  can hold up to 250 sheets of 20-;b/ US Bond 
(75 g/m²) standard paper and can handle paper stocks up to 47-lb. US Bond (176 g/m²). 
Pages printed in reading order (page 1 first) wi ll be sorted in reading order (last page on 
top, facing down).
Face Up Stacker
The face up stacker at the rear of the unit sh ould be opened and the tray extension pulled 
out when required for use.  In this condition paper will exit  via this path, regardless of driver 
settings.
The face up stacker can hold up to 100 sheets of 20-lb/ US Bond (75 g/m²) standard paper, 
and can handle stocks up to 53-Lb. US Bond (200 g/m²).
Always use this stacker and the multi purpose  feeder for paper stocks heavier than 47-lb. 
US Bond (176 g/m²).
Duplex Unit
The duplex unit provides automatic two-sided pr inting on the same range of paper sizes as 
tray 2 (i.e. all cassette sizes except A6), using paper stocks from 17 to 28-lb. US Bond 
(64-105 g/m²).

Loading Paper
Cassette Trays
1.Remove the paper tray from the unit.
2. Fan the paper to be loaded at the edges (1)  and in the middle (2) to ensure that all 
sheets are properly separated, then tap the  edges of the stack on a flat surface to 
make it flush again (3).
3. Load paper long edge feed (LEF) (for letter head paper load face down with top edge 
towards the right of the unit) (1) up to mark (a).
4. Adjust the rear stopper and paper guides (2) to the size of paper being used.
NOTE
For A6 paper, remove the paper guides  and re-install in the A6 position.

To prevent paper jams:
• Do not leave space between the paper and the guides and rear stopper.
• Do not overfill the paper tray. Capacity depends on the type of paper stock.
• Do not load damaged paper.
• Do not load paper of different sizes or types at the same time.
• Close the paper tray gently.
• Do not pull the paper tray out during printing (except as described below for the  2nd tray).
CAUTION!
IMPORTANT: Set paper size dial (3 ) to the size and orientation of 
paper being used.
NOTES
• If you have two trays and you are printing from the 1st (upper) tray, you 
can pull out the 2nd (lower) tray during  printing to reload it. However, if 
printing from the 2nd tray, do not pull out the 1st tray. This will cause a 
paper jam. 
• For face down printing, make sure the face up (rear) stacker is closed (the  paper exits from the top of the unit). Stacking capacity is approximately 
250 sheets, depending on paper weight.
• For face up printing, make sure the face up (rear) stacker is open and the  paper support is extended fully. Paper  is stacked in reverse order and tray 
capacity is approximately 100 sheets, depending on paper weight.
• Always use the face up (rear) stacke r for heavy paper (card stock, etc.).
CAUTION!
Do not open or close the rear paper exit while printing as it may 
result in a paper jam.

Internet Communication Features
Scan to e-mail 
The unit allows you to deliver your scanned document to e-mail addresses on the 
network. The document is first scanned and  converted to a standard PDF, JPEG, TIFF, 
or XPS file format and then transmitted to  remote recipients simultaneously as an 
e-mail attachment.
When you send an e-mail to someone using  this unit it uses Simple Mail Transfer 
Protocol (SMTP) to transfer your outgoing e- mails to your SMTP mail server, and then 
send these e-mails to your re cipients through the internet.
Scan to NetworkPC
Via the intranet with FTP (File Transfer Prot ocol), HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol), 
or CIFS (Common Internet  File System). The unit allows you to save scanned 
documents directly to a designated server  or a personal computer on the network in 
a standard PDF, JPEG, TIFF, or XPS file format.
CIFS is the sharing system of Microsoft Wi ndows. What is unique about this filing 
function is that it allows all corporate us ers to share one machine to send documents 
to each file folder on a designat ed server or individual computer.
The following settings or destinations must be  defined by the system administrator before 
the unit can be used to distribute any scanned document(s) on the network.
• Network and E-mail parameters: Defines the parameters for TCP/IP, SMTP, and POP3  protocols to send your scanned  document to e-mail addresses.
• Filing destinations: Defines the protocols and destinations to send your scanned  document to FTP servers, web, or any personal computers on the network.
NOTES
1.DHCP server: With DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), a host 
can automatically be given a unique IP address each time it connects to a 
network-making IP addr ess management an easier task for network 
administrators. If the DHCP server is available from your network, you do 
not need to enter TCP/IP, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS information. 
Instead, this information will be automatically given for the unit.
2. IP Address: An IP (Internet Protocol) address uniquely identifies a host 
connection to an IP network. System  administrator or network designer 
assigns the IP address. The IP ad dress consists of two parts, one 
identifying the network and the one id entifying your node. The IP address 
is usually written as four numbers separated by periods. Each number can 
be zero to 255. For example, 10.1.30.186 could be an IP address. 
3. SMTP: (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) is the main communication protocol 
used to send and receive e-mail on the Internet.
4. DNS: (Domain Name System). The DNS server identifies hosts via names 
instead of IP addresses. If the DNS server is available on your network, 
you can enter the domain name instead of digits for your SMTP or POP3 
servers, such as Pegasus.com.tw instead of 120.3.2.23.
5. POP3: POP3 is the latest Post Office Protocol 3, this is a service that stores 
and serves e-mails for various client machines that are not connected to 
the Internet 24 hours a day. E-mails are held in POP3 until you log on.
