Tips
-----------------------------------------------------------------
- If it is possible, try to use the latest versions of
software applications, which are compatible with the operating
system.
- A document created on an old version of a software application
may not print correctly if printed from a newer version of the
software. In this case, try saving the document using the
new version, and then print it.
- When "N-Up printing" is set to "2-Up" or "4-Up", or when the
"Resolution Settings" is changed, the position of line breaks
may change. In this event, adjust the character size and/or
margins, and use the "Print preview" or "Show page layout"
function in the software application to check the print layout
before printing.
- The displayed "number of pages" in the print queue may not
be automatically updated. You can press the F5 key to update
the displayed number.
- Brightly coloured characters or lines (yellow, light blue, etc.)
may not appear when printed. In this event, try the following:
(A) Text consisting only of characters/lines created with CAD
software:
Try selecting the "2 Gradation Print" checkbox in the
"Advanced" tab before printing.
(In this case, sections where photographs, coloured
characters and lines overlap will all be printed in black.)
(B) Text that includes photographs, coloured characters and
lines:
Try decreasing the "Brightness" setting in the "Image
adjustment" dialog box that appears when you select the
"Image adjustment" button in the "Advanced" tab.
(This will change the brightness of the overall printed
image.)
(C) Other cases
If you tried the above and still did not obtain the desired
printing result, change the colour of the character or line,
or make it thicker using the application's control for font
or line
- In the test page that is printed when you select "Print test
page" in the printer driver properties, "Yes" appears by
"Colour printing"; however, this has been set only to improve
the reproducibility of halftone printing. The unit is only
capable of black and white printing.
- When the "Fit To Paper Size" function in the "Paper" tab is
used, enlargement or reduction is calculated based on the
"Paper size" in the "Paper" tab, not on the paper size in the
application. Therefore, when using this function, make sure
that the "Paper size" in the "Paper" tab is the same as the
paper size in the application.
- The position, size, and colour of a watermark shown in the
watermark preview (on the left side of the "Watermark" tab) in
the driver properties may differ from the actual printed result.
Use the preview only as a general guideline.
- If N-Up printing is selected in the "Main" tab when a watermark
has been selected, an image will appear (the paper image in the
upper left-hand corner of the "Main", "Paper" and "Advanced"
tabs) indicating that one watermark will be printed on the
paper. The image simply indicates that a watermark has been
selected; it does not indicate the printing result. A watermark
will actually be printed on each page of the document.
For example, when a multi-page document is printed using 2-Up
printing, two watermarks will be printed on each sheet of paper.
- If the printer driver language in use is different from the OS
language, "Watermark" is not sometimes printed correctly.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Limitations in specific software applications
------------------------------------------------------------------
- When editing multiple documents in Microsoft Word 2000 or later,
opening the driver properties and changing the print settings
for one document may result in changes in the print settings
for the other documents. In this case, reset the print
settings before printing each document.
- If a document is printed using a large font in Microsoft Word and
other applications, the application may be shut down by Windows.
Fonts larger than 300 points can be set in Microsoft Word; however,
do not use a font larger than approximately 300 points for
printing.
When using a large font in a document, we recommend that you
frequently save the document so edits are not lost.
- Some English fonts may not print correctly from WordPad. In
this case, use a different word processor application
(Microsoft Word, etc.)
- In WordPad, printing may not take place correctly if you
specify a page range starting from the second page. In this
event, select "All" for the pages to be printed.
- When using Acrobat Reader 5.0 or later, a landscape-oriented
document may be printed in the opposite orientation of other
applications. In this event, deselect the "Auto-rotate and
center pages" checkbox in the Print dialog box before printing.
- Graphics in a Power Point document may print in black, try the following:
(1) Select "Print" from the "File" menu in Power Point.
(2) Set off in the Grayscale function in the Print dialog box.
(3) Click the "OK" button.
===> Printing begins.
- Shading and Fills may not appear correctly when printing
from Excel. In this case, select "Photo" for "Print quality"
in the "Advanced" tab of the driver properties.
- Some graphical contents may not print correctly from Internet Explorer.
In this case, select "Photo" for "Print quality" in the "Advanced" tab
of the driver properties.
- Brightly coloured characters or lines (yellow, light blue, light gray etc.)
may not appear when printed from Power Point.
In this case, select "Photo" for "Print quality" in the "Advanced" tab
of the driver properties.
- When you use the Internet Explorer with "Protected Mode",
some functions may not be used correctly. This probrem may be
solved by modifying the "Enable Protected Mode" of the "Security"
tab to be "OFF" after selecting the "Tool"-"Internet Options"
menu in Internet Explorer.

Important points when using the scanner
------------------------------------------------------------------
- The Selector starts when two and more device is connected to the
PC and the TWAIN driver is started from the PC. Please choose an
appropriate device, and use.
But, when two and more device is connected to the PC, the reading
which the scanning button of the machine was used for may not be
able to be done. In this case, connect only one unit to the PC.
- Some OCR programs require alternate program settings to work
efficiently. Please check the Twain driver and/or OCR settings if
problems persist.
- When an image is scanned using "Image Area" for the scanning
range, the properties of the scanned image may not show the image
size.
- During device warm up, scanning from the WIA driver may cause
an error message.
In the case, please try again after the "Power save indicator" of
the device turns off.
- The latest versions of software applications offer greater
compatibility with scanning systems.
- The preview image quality doesn't match the final scan image
quality depending on the settings.
- Some applications don't support high resolution scanning.
In that case, please try reducing resolution.
- When the progress bar shows "Processing...", the device
cancellation button operation may be delayed.
