Additional information
Be sure not to exit from Energy Saver mode or to switch the machine on when the ring binder door is
open and the binding unit is disconnected. Doing so will affect initialization, causing the ring binder
function to become unavailable (although other functions will be unaffected).
If you inadvertently do this, connect the ring binder’s binding unit again, close the door, and then turn
the power off and back on to restore normal operation.

Overview

This document provides user notes and corrections for a multifunction device, focusing on its setup, paper handling, troubleshooting, and maintenance.

General Device Information

The device, identified by model number M2381044A, is a multifunction printer that supports various paper types and sizes, and can be configured with optional finishers like the Finisher SR5050 or Booklet Finisher SR5060, and a High Capacity Stacker. It features an Energy Saver mode and includes an earth leakage breaker for user safety.

Setup and Installation

Earth Leakage Breaker: The device is equipped with an earth leakage breaker to protect users from electric shock. A plate indicating its presence is usually on the part shown in the figure. Users are advised not to touch this plate as it is removed by a customer engineer. For detailed information on checking the earth leakage breaker, refer to page 155 of the manual, "Checking the Earth Leakage Breakers."

Connecting to the Interface: When connecting the interface cable, a plate is typically present on the part shown in the figure. Users should not touch this plate, as it is removed by a customer engineer. If the machine is unable to connect to the network, users should check that the machine is correctly connected to the network and that its settings are correct. Refer to "Interface Settings" in "Connecting the Machine/System Settings" for details on network connection and machine configuration.

Ring Binder Usage:

  • Important: Do not exit Energy Saver mode or switch the machine on when the ring binder door is open and the binding unit is disconnected. This will affect initialization and make the ring binder function unavailable (though other functions will remain unaffected). If this occurs, reconnect the binding unit, close the door, and then power off and back on to restore normal operation.

Paper Handling

The device supports a wide range of paper types and sizes, including envelopes, transparencies, and various paper weights.

Loading Paper:

  • Trays 1, 2, and Wide Large Capacity Tray: When using auto tray switching, covers, or slip sheets, the lamp on the front of the active tray will remain lit until printing is complete. Paper cannot be replenished while the lamp is lit.
  • Changing Paper Size: When changing paper size in Trays 1, 2, and the Wide Large Capacity Tray, do not push in the paper presser on the upper part of the side fence. If it is pushed in, return it to its original position by hand. When using paper between paper weight 1 and paper weight 3 (52.3-105.0 g/m²), set paper after setting the base on the bottom of the tray.
  • Thicker Paper (Paper Weight 5 or heavier): When loading paper thicker than Paper Weight 5, set the paper first, then set the auxiliary side fence. The auxiliary side fence should be flush against the side of the paper on the side fence extension.
  • Envelopes: The device supports envelopes of various sizes, including 240 x 332 mm, 235 x 120 mm, 120 x 235 mm, 105 x 241 mm, and 110 x 220 mm.
    • 240 x 332 mm Envelopes: When sending a 240 x 332 mm envelope to Finisher SR5050 or Booklet Finisher SR5060, attach the Z-fold support tray to the finisher shift tray. Insert the two protrusions on the underside of the Z-fold support tray into the holes on the finisher shift tray.
    • Curl Flattening: Flatten curls on envelopes so that the difference in stack height between the bottom of the envelope and the flap portion is 10 mm (0.4 inches) or below.
  • Curl Guidelines:
    • For 52.3-299.9 g/m² paper: Curl height 5 mm (0.2 inches) or below, R over 100 mm (3.94 inches).
    • For 300-400 g/m² paper: Curl height 3 mm (0.12 inches) or below, R over 100 mm (3.94 inches).
  • Banner Sheets: If the banner sheet tray is installed, up to 800 sheets of paper that is 420.0 - 700.0 mm (16.54 - 27.55 inches) long can be fed.

Recommended Paper Sizes and Types:

  • Transparencies: When loading transparencies, and outputting to the high capacity stacker, specify the output tray as the stacker upper tray. Refer to "General Features," "Connecting the Machine/System Settings" for details.
  • Colored Paper:
    • Depending on the color of the paper, the paper's position may not be detected correctly, leading to paper jams.
    • For light-colored paper, specify the paper type as [Color] in [Paper Setting].
    • For black or dark colored paper, if specifying [Color] does not clear paper jams, specify [Black].
    • If specifying [Color] or [Black] does not clear paper jams, adjust [Illumination Mode for Color Paper Detection] in [Adjustment Settings for Operators]. Refer to "Adjustment Settings for Operators," "Paper Settings" for details.
  • A5 or 5½ x 8½ Sheets: To load sheets of paper whose sizes are A5 or 5½ x 8½, open the left mainframe front cover and turn the lever for A5/Half Letter to the right.
  • Coated Paper, Label Paper, Film Paper, and Thick Paper (150.1 g/m² or heavier): Fan the stack of paper before loading it in the paper tray.
  • Curled Paper Compensation: If the machine has a function to compensate for curled paper, specify curl compensation in the machine's settings. Refer to the manuals supplied with the machine for configuration details. If there is no function for compensation, either place the curled side facing down or flatten the curled paper, and then set it in the tray.
  • Magnet Paper: If the last sheet of magnet paper does not feed correctly, it may be sticking to the metallic parts of the paper tray. In this case, load sheets of magnet paper by adding 10 or more sheets to the tray.

Troubleshooting

Image Data Issues:

  • "The image data size is not valid. See the manual for required data.": For details about file size for a Home Screen image, refer to "Displaying an Image on the [Home] Screen" in "Convenient Functions."
  • "The format of the image data is not valid. See the manual for required data.": The file format of the Home Screen image to be added is not supported. The file format for shortcut images must be PNG. Specify the image again. For details about file size for a Home Screen image, refer to "Displaying an Image on the [Home] Screen" in "Convenient Functions."

Adjusting Image Density: To improve color reproduction and achieve consistent quality, adjust image density and perform calibration. This procedure can also improve mixed color reproduction.

  1. Press the [User Tools] key.
  2. Press [Adjustment Settings for Operators].
  3. Press [Machine: Image Quality].
  4. Press [0207: Adjust Image Density Before Auto Color Calibration].
  5. Press [Image Density Adjustment: Manual Execute].
  6. Press [OK].
  7. When color density adjustment is complete, press [Exit].
  8. Press [Exit].
  • Important:
    • Ensure the transition time to energy saving mode is long enough to prevent it from activating during tone correction.
    • Do not print or specify settings from the operation panel during tone correction.
    • Complete the tone correction procedure promptly without intervals.
    • It is recommended to restart the tone correction procedure from the beginning if printing is carried out or intervals are taken during the procedure.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance helps ensure optimal performance and longevity of the device.

Adjusting Image Density and Color Calibration:

  • Perform image density adjustments and color calibration to maintain consistent color output quality. Refer to the color controller's manual for details on calibration.

Paper Handling Best Practices:

  • Always fan stacks of coated paper, label paper, film paper, and thick paper (150.1 g/m² or heavier) before loading them into the paper tray to prevent feeding issues.
  • Flatten curled paper or use the machine's curl compensation function if available.

This comprehensive overview should assist users in effectively operating and maintaining their multifunction device.
