Stapling Precautions  
Limitation  
Stapling can be done only with the optional finisher installed.  
Stapling cannot be done when paper is fed from the bypass tray.  
You cannot interrupt the current job with a job for another function requiring  
stapling or collating.  
When printing on letterhead, stapling may not be at the specified position.  
When the optional booklet finisher is installed, and PostScript 3 is used, you  
cannot specify [2 at center].  
Note  
When the finisher is installed, and when an output tray that cannot output us-  
ing the staple function has been selected, the paper will be output according  
to System Settings.  
4
If you cannot make staple settings even with the finisher installed, options  
may not be set correctly in the printer driver. Correct option settings in the  
printer driver. For details, see the printer driver Help.  
When duplex printing is selected, adjust staple positions to the binding orien-  
tation.  
When the finisher is being used for another function's job (for example, a copy  
job), printing will start after that job ends.  
When setting Staple in the printer driver settings, make sure that a collate op-  
tion is not selected in the print settings of the application. If a collate option is  
selected in the application, printing will not be as intended.  
Be sure to set paper size and orientation in the printer driver when stapling.  
Depending on the software you are using, print settings may not be saved  
and the printed result may not be as expected.  
When printing restarts after removing jammed paper, the printing position  
may be different, depending on the location of the jam.  
If the paper jam occurred in the optional finisher, printing will restart from  
the top page of the data currently being printed, or from the page where  
the paper jam occurred.  
If the paper jam occurred in the machine, printing will restart from the  
page where the paper jam occurred.  
Even if the paper jam occurred in the machine, the error will not be cleared  
unless the cover of the finisher is opened and closed.  
93  
Other Print Operations  
Staple printing will be canceled under the following conditions:  
If the number of staple jobs exceeds maximum. For information about the  
maximum number, see Specifications, General Settings Guide.  
If a paper size that cannot be stapled is selected. For information about pa-  
per sizes that can be stapled, see Specifications, General Settings Guide.  
If positions other than those fixed for stapling are specified.  
If there are inconsistencies between the orientation in duplex mode and the  
staple position.  
If paper sizes are mixed when a different paper size is specified during a  
print job.  
When staples have run out.  
When feeding paper from the bypass tray.  
When staples have run out and Auto Continue is set, printing will continue

Spool Printing  
Spool Printing  
Spool Printing allows print jobs transferred from a computer to be temporarily  
stored, and then prints them after they are transferred. This shortens printing  
time as it maximizes printer efficiency.  
Important  
During Spool Printing, the hard disk is accessed and the Data-In indicator  
blinks. Turning off the computer or machine during Spool Printing can dam-  
age the hard disk. Also, if the computer or machine is turned off during Spool  
Printing, spooled jobs will be deleted. Therefore, do not turn the power to the  
computer or machine off during Spool Printing.  
Limitation  
4
If data is sent to the machine using other protocols besides diprint, lpr, ipp,  
and smb, Spool Printing cannot be performed.  
Up to a maximum of 150 jobs at once can be spool printed.  
Note  
Printing the first page with Spool Printing will be slow.  
The computer requires less print processing time when large amounts of data  
are spooled.  
Stored spool jobs can be viewed or deleted using a Web browser.  
Setting Spool Printing  
Spool Printing can be set using telnet or a Web browser.

6. Using the Document Server  
Accessing the Document Server  
The Document Server enables you to store documents on the machine's hard  
disk, allowing you to edit and print as and when you want.  
Limitation  
Applications with their own drivers, such as PageMaker, do not support this  
function.  
Reference  
For more information about Document Server functions, see General Settings  
Guide.  
For information about how to access Document Server from a client, see the  
printer driver Help.  
Note  
When you use the Document Server, the following functions can be selected  
using the machine's control panel:  
Copies  
Collate  
Duplex  
Staple  
Punch  
Paper selection: Paper source tray, paper type, paper output tray.  
Functions related to paper selection: Cover sheets, slip sheets.  
The above items are dimmed, so you cannot set them from the printer prop-  
erties dialog box when the Document Server is selected.  
You must enter a user ID, using up to eight alphanumeric characters.  
You should enter a Password: and File Name to distinguish the job from others.  
Up to 3,000 files can be stored in the Document Server. No new files can be  
stored after 3,000 is reached. Even if less than 3,000 files are stored, new files  
cannot be stored when  
a file to be stored contains more than 2,000 pages,  
the total number of pages contained in files stored exceeds 15,000,  
the hard disk is full.  
The Document Server also stores files scanned using the Automatic Docu-  
ment Feeder (ADF) or exposure glass. You should delete unnecessary stored  
files once in a while so as not to exceed the capacity of the hard disk. For how  
to delete stored files, see General Settings Guide.  
When using the hard disk for functions other than those of Document Server,  
you may be unable to store new files in the Document Server, even if there are  
less than 3,000 files stored.
