When the rear paper stacker is folded down, paper exits the printer
through the rear of the printer and is stacked here face up. This is
mainly used for heavy print media. When used in conjunction with
the Multi-Purpose Tray, the paper path through the printer is
essentially straight. This avoids bending the paper around curves in
the paper path and makes paper feeding more reliable.

Media Types
Paper
The best performance is obtained when using paper designed for
use in copiers and laser printers. Suitable types include:
• Hammermill® Laser Printer Radiant White, 24 lb. US Bond (90
g/m²)
• Xerox® 4024, 20 lb.US Bond (75 g/m²)
• Oki® 52206101 Bright White Proofing Paper, 32 lb. US Bond
(120 g/m2)
Recommendations
• Check http://my.okidata.com for the latest information on
recommended papers for your printer.
• Paper should be stored flat, away from moisture, direct sunlight and
heat sources.
• The use of heavily laid or textured paper will seriously affect the
life of the image drum and give poor print quality. Print quality
can be improved by changing the media setting to ‘Ultra Heavy.’
However, this will reduce the output speed and prevent the use of the
duplex option.
• Avoid:
– Damp, damaged or curled paper.
– Very smooth, shiny or glossy paper.
– Heavily embossed letterhead paper, very rough paper or paper
that has a large grain difference between the two sides.
– Paper with perforations, cut-outs or ragged edges.
– Carbon paper, recycled paper, NCR paper, photosensitive
paper, pressure sensitive paper or thermal transfer paper.

Envelopes
Yes
No
• Use only recommended envelopes (Oki 52206301 and 52206302:
see “Selecting/Using OKI Print Media“ in your Handy Reference
Guide for more information).
• Envelopes should be stored flat and away from moisture, direct
sunlight and heat sources.
• Don’t use envelopes with windows or metal clasps.
• Don’t use damp, damaged or curled envelopes.
CAUTION
Print media must be able to withstand 446°F (230°C) for 0.2
second.
Transparencies
• Use only recommended transparencies (3M CG3720, Oki
52205701).
• Avoid office transparencies designed for use by hand with marker
pens. These will melt in the fuser and cause damage.

Labels
• Avery 5161 White Laser Labels (letter size) work well with your
printer. Check http://my.okidata.com for the latest information on
media for your printer.
• Use only labels designed for use in color laser printers and
photocopiers.
CAUTION!
• Labels should cover the entire carrier sheet.
• Carrier sheet or adhesive must not be exposed to any
part of the printer

Auto Switching
If you have identical paper stock loaded in the Multi-Purpose Tray or
the optional Second Paper Tray, you can have the printer
automatically switch to the other tray when the current tray runs out
of paper. This function is enabled in the Print Menu.
Media: Multi-Purpose Tray
Use the Multi-Purpose (MP) Tray for printing card stock, labels,
envelopes and transparencies. Or load a stack of letterhead
stationery to switch to as needed.
• A stack of media about 3/8'' (10 mm) high can be loaded into the MP
Tray, equivalent to about 10 envelopes or 50 transparencies.
• Media should be loaded print side up, top edge facing into the printer.
• Generally, the rear exit (Face Up Stacker) is used with the MP Tray.
Important!
The duplex unit can be used for paper only, at weights up to 28 lb.
US Bond (105 g/m2 metric, 58 lb. Index). Do not use the duplex
(two-sided printing) function for labels, envelopes,
transparencies, or paper heavier than 28 lb. US Bond.

Setting Color Tuning from The Front Panel
Important!
• In most cases, using Color Tuning is not necessary as the printer
is optimized for color printing at its default settings.
• Once you change these settings, they remain in effect until you
go back in and change them.
• To return the settings to the defaults, use the steps below to
set each value back to 0 (zero).
You can use the printer’s menu to adjust the color intensity for a
specific color by adjusting the HIGHLIGHT, MID-TONE and DARK
(shadows) Color Tuning Patterns.
• To increase the color intensity, use a higher positive setting (default =
0, maximum = +3).
• To decrease the color intensity, use a higher negative setting (default
= 0, maximum = -3).
For example, to adjust the intensity of the magenta portion:

Clearing Paper Jams
Jams can occur due to paper misfeeding from a paper tray or at any
point along the paper path.
When a jam occurs, the printer immediately stops, and the LCD
display indicates the area where the first sheet is jammed. All
jammed sheets must be removed in order to restore the printer to
normal operation.
Once you clear a jam and close the cover, you may see a new jam
message indicating an additional jammed sheet which must be
cleared. This is especially likely if you are printing a multi-page
document or multiple copies of a single document.
Unless you have entered the menu and changed the Jam Recovery
setting in the System Configuration Menu to OFF, once all jams
have been cleared, the printer will automatically attempt to reprint
any pages lost due to paper jams.

General Information
Factors That Affect the Appearance of Printed
Documents
If you wish to manually adjust the color settings in your printer driver,
please be aware that color reproduction is a complex topic, and
there are many factors to take into consideration. Some of the most
important factors are listed below.
Differences between the Range of Colors a Monitor
or Printer Can Reproduce
• Neither a printer nor a monitor is capable of reproducing the full
range of colors visible to the human eye. Each device is restricted to
a certain range of colors. In addition to this, a printer cannot
reproduce all of the colors displayed on a monitor, and vice versa.
• Both devices use very different technologies to represent color. A
monitor uses Red, Green and Blue (RGB) phosphors (or LCDs), a
printer uses Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black (CMYK) toner or ink.
• A monitor can display very vivid colors such as intense reds and
blues and these cannot be easily produced on any printer using
toner or ink. Similarly, there are certain colors, (some yellows for
example), that can be printed, but cannot be displayed accurately on
a monitor. This disparity between monitors and printers is often the
main reason that printed colors do not match the colors displayed on
screen.

Viewing conditions
A print can look very different under different lighting conditions. For
example, the colors in a print may look different when viewed
standing next to a sunlit window, compared to how they look under
standard office fluorescent lighting.
Printer driver color settings
The driver settings for Manual color can change the appearance of
a print. There are several options available to help match the printed
colors with those displayed on screen.
Monitor settings
The brightness and contrast controls on your monitor can change
how your document looks on-screen. Additionally, your monitor’s
color temperature influences how “warm” or “cool” the colors look.
NOTE
Several of the Color Matching options make reference
to your monitor’s Color Temperature. Many modern
monitors allow the color temperature to be adjusted
using the monitor’s control panel.
There are several settings found on a typical monitor:
• 5000k*
Warmest; yellowish lighting, typically used in graphics arts
environments.
• 6500k
Cooler; approximates daylight conditions.
• 9300k
Cool; the default setting for many monitors and television sets.
*k = degrees Kelvin, a measurement of temperature

How Your Software Application Displays Color
Some graphics applications such as CorelDRAW® or Adobe®
Photoshop® may display color differently from "office" applications
such as Microsoft® Word. Please see your application’s on-line help
or user manual for more information.
Paper Type
The type of paper used can also significantly affect the printed color.
For example, a printout on recycled paper can look duller than one
on specially formulated glossy paper.

Choosing a Color Matching Method
There is no correct way to achieve a good match between the
document displayed on your monitor, and its printed equivalent.
There are many factors involved in achieving accurate and
reproducible color.
The following guidelines may help in achieving good color output
from your printer. There are several suggested methods, depending
on the type of document you are printing.
NOTE
These suggestions are for guidance only. Your results
may vary depending on the application from which you
are printing. Some applications will override any color
matching settings in the printer driver without warning.
RGB or CMYK?
The guidelines for choosing a color matching method makes
distinctions between Red, Green, Blue (RGB) and Cyan, Magenta,
Yellow, Black (CMYK).
Generally, most documents you print will be in RGB format. This is
the most common, and if you do not know your document’s color
mode, assume that it is RGB.
Typically CMYK documents are only supported in professional
Desktop Publishing and Graphics applications.
Matching Photographic Images
RGB only
Oki Color Matching is a generally a good choice. Select a matching
method appropriate to your monitor.

RGB or CMYK
If you are printing photographic images from a graphics application
such as Adobe Photoshop, you may be able to use Soft-Proofing to
simulate the printed image on your monitor. To do this, you can use
the ICC-Profiles provided by Oki, and then print using the ICC
profiles as the Print Space (or Output space).
Matching Specific Colors (e.g., a Company logo):
RGB only
• Option 1: Select Oki Color Matching, and the sRGB setting on the
Color tab in the PCL or Postscript emulation driver.
• Option 2: For Postscript emulation print jobs: Select Postscript Color
Matching using the Absolute Colorimetric option on the Color tab in
the printer driver.
• Option 3: Use the Color Swatch Utility provided on the Publications
CD supplied with your printer to print out a chart of RGB swatches,
then enter the desired RGB values in your application's color picker.
Printing Vivid Colors: RGB Only
Use Oki Color Matching, with either the Monitor 6500k Vivid, sRGB
or Digital Camera settings (PCL or Postscript emulations).

Color Matching Options: Windows Me and 98
The Graphics tab on the Postscript emulation driver in these
Windows operating systems offers several rendering intents for
controlling the color output of the printer.
When a document is printed, a conversion takes place from the
document’s color to the printer color. The rendering intents are
essentially a set of rules that determine how this color conversion
takes place.
Select Use Image Color Management, then click Choose Rendering
Intent:
Saturation
Best choice for printing graphs, charts, diagrams etc. Maps fully
saturated colors in the source gamut to fully saturated colors in the
printer’s gamut.

Oki Color Matching
This is Oki’s proprietary color matching system, and affects RGB
data only.
• Perceptual settings are best for printing photographic images.
• Vivid or Digital Camera settings produce brightest colors.
• sRGB is the best choice for matching specific colors (such as
printing logos).
Monitor (6500k) Perceptual
Optimized for printing photographs when using a monitor with a
color temperature of 6500K.
Monitor (6500k) Vivid
Optimized for printing bright colors when using a monitor with a color
temperature of 6500K. Good for office graphics and text.

Monitor (9300k)
Optimized for printing photographs when using a monitor with a
color temperature of 6500K.
Digital Camera
Optimized for printing photographs taken with a digital camera. This
tends to produce prints with lighter and brighter colors. For some
photographs, other settings may be better depending on the
subjects and the conditions under which they were taken.
sRGB
Optimized for matching specific colors, such as a company logo
color.
The colors within the printer's color gamut are printed without any
modification, and only colors that fall outside the gamut (set) of
printable colors are modified.
Postscript Color Matching
This uses Postscript Color Rendering Dictionaries built into the
printer, and affects both RGB and CMYK data.
Rendering Intents
When a document is printed, a conversion takes place from the
document’s color space to the printer color space. The rendering
intents are essentially a set of rules that determine how this color
conversion takes place.
The rendering intents that the printer driver provides are listed
below:
• Perceptual
Best choice for printing photographs. Compresses the source
gamut into the printer's gamut while maintaining the overall
appearance of an image. This may change the overall appearance
of an image as all the colors are shifted together.
• Saturation
Best choice for printing bright and saturated colors, but less
accurately matched. This makes it the recommended choice for
graphs, charts, diagrams etc. Maps fully saturated colors in the
source gamut to fully saturated colors in the printer’s gamut.

• Absolute Colorimetric
Best for printing solid colors and tints, such as Company logos etc.
Matches colors common to both devices exactly, and clips the out
of gamut colors to their nearest printed equivalent. Tries to print
white as it appears on screen. The white of a monitor is often very
different from paper white, so this may result in color casts,
especially in the lighter areas of an image.
• Relative Colorimetric
Good for proofing CMYK color images on a desktop printer. Much
like Absolute Colorimetric, except that it scales the source white to
the (usually) paper white. Unlike Absolute Colorimetric, this
attempts to take the paper white into account.
CMYK Ink Simulation
Affects CMYK data only.
This option simulates what the output will look like on a printing
press using the ink types SWOP, Euroscale or Toyo. If using CMYK
Ink Simulation, it is recommended that you switch off all other Printer
Color Matching. Select the No Color Matching option under the
Color Match option in the printer driver.
Windows ICM Color Matching
Windows 98, Me, 2000 and XP only. This affects RGB data only.
ICM is the color management system built into Windows.
Windows ICM uses ICC profiles for your monitor and printer; these
profiles describe the colors that your device is capable of
reproducing. ICC profiles can be associated with your printer via the
Color Management tab of the printer driver.
Depending on how you have installed the printer driver, the color
profiles may already be associated with the driver.
To associate ICC Color Profiles with the printer driver:
1. Access the printer settings via the Start menu.
2. Right-click the printer name and choose Properties.
3. Click the Color Management tab.
Windows: Color Printing

4. Under “Color Profiles currently associated with this printer,” you
should see the names of profiles that match your printer model. If
you do not see any profiles associated with the driver, click
“Add…” and locate the ICC profiles for your printer.
Windows ICM uses the information in these profiles to convert colors
in your documents to colors that the printer can reproduce. The way
in which this conversion is performed can be controlled via the ICM
Intent control in the printer driver.
Using ICC Profiles
Affects RGB data only.
This provides a method of matching RGB colors similar to Windows
ICM matching. The main advantage it has over Windows ICM color
matching is that it provides a method of printing using both input and
output profiles. Windows ICM matching only allows output profiles to
be chosen.
Input profiles provide information about the color in the original
device that was used to capture or display the image data. For
example, an input device could be a scanner, digital camera or
monitor.
Output profiles provide information about the device to which you
are printing.
The “Using ICC Profiles” function allows both an input profile (e.g.
digital camera), and an output profile (e.g. your printer) to be
selected. It uses both these profiles to generate a CRD (Color
Rendering Dictionary), and this is used to match the colors as
closely as possible.
NOTE
This feature may not work for all application programs.
However, many professional graphics applications
offer a similar feature in their print settings, with the
ability to choose a source (input) color space, and a
print (output) color space.

Printing Overlays
2000 and XP
What are Overlays?
An Overlay can be a combination of graphics, fonts, or text that is
stored in the printer's flash memory or on the hard disk drive, and
printed whenever required. The result is similar to the Watermark
feature, but with the ability to be much more elaborate.
Overlays can be useful for tasks such as printing letterheads, forms,
or invoices, and should reduce the need for pre-printed stationery.
An Example of Using Overlays:
Suppose that you have created and stored three files in the printer
using the Storage Device Manager:
• the company logo
• the company address
• the company mission statement.
The Overlay feature allows these files to be incorporated into your
document in various combinations, depending on your
requirements.
To Create Overlays:
1. Create the document that you wish to use for Overlay printing
(e.g. a letterhead) and generate a PRN file (print file) using the
printer driver.
2. Use the Storage Device Manager utility to convert this PRN file
(print file) to a storable file format, and download it to the printer.

Once someone has set up all the necessary overlay files on the
printer, other users only have to switch on the required settings in
the printer driver to use the overlays.
NOTE
• If the hard disk memory is insufficient for the
spooled data, DISK FULL is displayed and only one
copy printed.
• If the software application being used has a collate
print option, this must be turned OFF for overlay to
operate correctly.
• An overlay may consist of more than one
component files.
Creating Documents To Use As Overlays
An overlay can be created in any software application that can
handle logos, letterheads, forms, etc. and can print to a file.
1. With the file to be stored as an overlay open in your application
program, choose File then Print.
2. Ensure that the Print To File option is switched on in your
application's Print dialog box.
3. Depending on the application, you may need to select your
printer model, and then click Properties… This should open the
printer driver settings.

Color Swatch Utility
General Information
The Color Swatch Utility allows you to print swatches of color
samples on your Oki color printer. The swatches are used with your
software program to select and reproduce color accurately. The
swatches represent selected samples of the Oki color printer's color
palette and provide corresponding RGB values which can be used
to set up the desired colors for your printed documents.
NOTE
• Your software may not be able to match colors using
the swatch information. You may need to use other
matching methods.
• The color swatch samples do not show all the colors
your Oki color printer can print.
• Other factors influence how you see color: the color
and finish of the paper, ambient light, even the color
surrounding the one you are looking at.

Before overlays can be printed, they must be created
in a software application and saved as a print file, then
downloaded to the printer’s internal hard disk drive or
flash memory using Storage Device Manager.
General Information
To use overlays, the Storage Device Manager software must be
installed.
You can save logos, letterheads, etc. as overlays
• on the printer’s 20 GB internal hard disk drive
or
• in the printer’s flash memory
(available space limited to about 0.5 MB each for PCL Macros
and PostScript Forms)
then add one or any combination of them to a file as it is being
printed.
Use overlays

• to add your logo or company address to a document
• to create forms from pre-stored modular pieces.
Important!
When the hard disk drive is installed, you must use the Shutdown
Menu before turning the printer off.
• Overlay elements must be created in the software application
of your choice, then stored on the printer’s hard drive using

drive and wait for the Menu Installer to open. (If the CD does not
AutoPlay, click Start → Run → Browse. Browse to your
CD-ROM and double-click Install.exe, then click OK.)

3. Click Network Software → Administration Tools → Oki LPR
and follow the on-screen instructions.
