NSTALLING DRIVERS AND UTILITIES NOTE Example screenshots have been used throughout and may not represent your machine, however the procedure is the same. NOTE You must be logged on as an administrator or a member of the Administrators group in order to complete this procedure. If your computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may also prevent you from completing this procedure.
INDOWS SCANNER AND PRINTER DRIVERS The scanner driver is used for “Pull Scan”, i.e. Initiating a scan from your PC via software. Compare this to “Push Scan” where you start the scan by pressing a button on the MFP's front panel. NOTE The Oki driver installer program is the recommended installation method.
PRINTER DRIVER The information in this section is based on Mac OS X Leopard (10.5). Other versions may appear slightly different, but the principles are the same. Insert the DVD-ROM and run the Oki driver installer program. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the printer driver. Attach the printer to a USB port of your computer.
(MC361 MC561) AX DRIVER The fax driver allows you to send faxes directly from your computer without printing the document first. Windows XP has built-in fax support - you can use your computer's modem to send faxes directly from your computer. With Oki's fax driver you are sending the fax data from your computer to the MFP, and then the MFP automatically sends the document.
ONFIGURATION TOOL Installation of the Configuration Tool is optional and can be found on the DVD in the Utilities folder. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the Configuration Tool installation. The Configuration Tool can discover devices over USB or network connections.

APER RECOMMENDATIONS Your MFP will handle a variety of print media, including a range of paper weights and sizes. This section provides general advice on choice of media, and explains how to use each type. The best performance will be obtained when using standard 75~90g/m² paper designed for use in copiers and laser printers.
ULTI PURPOSE TRAY The multi purpose tray can handle the same sizes as the cassette trays but in weights up to 220 . For very heavy paper stock use the face up (rear) paper stacker. This ensures g/m² that the paper path through the printer is almost straight. The multi purpose tray can feed paper widths from 76mm to 215.9mm and lengths from 127.0mm to 1320mm (banner printing).
OADING PAPER ASSETTE TRAYS Remove the paper tray from the machine. 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).
Page 30
Load paper (letter headed paper face down and top edge towards the front of the printer), as shown. Adjust the rear stopper (a) and paper guides (b) to the size of paper being used. Close the paper tray gently. Set the correct paper size. Refer to “Configuring the tray settings”...
Page 31
> Do not pull the paper tray out during printing (except as described below for the 2nd tray). NOTE > 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 you are printing from the 2nd (lower) tray, do not pull out the 1st (upper) tray.
ULTI PURPOSE TRAY Open the multi purpose tray (a). Fold out the paper supports (b). Press gently down on the paper platform (c) to ensure it is latched down. Load the paper and adjust the paper guides (d) to the size of paper being used. >...
EGISTERING CUSTOM SIZES To load custom size paper, you need to register the width and length of the paper before printing. The range of the sizes you can set differs according to the paper tray. TRAY AVAILABLE SIZE RANGE Tray 1 Width: 105 to 216 mm (4.1 to 8.5 inches) Length: 148 to 356 mm (5.8 to 14.0 inches) Tray 2 (optional)
