Note

  • When confirming or changing the settings in [Settings], press [Home] (Operation panel screen illustration) after closing [Settings].

  • If the paper tray runs out of paper, “There is no paper. Load paper.” appears on the screen, prompting you to add paper. If there is paper left in the other trays, you can receive documents as usual, even if the message appears on the screen. You can turn this function on or off with "Parameter Settings"

  • If “Check whether there are any network problems.” appears, the machine is not correctly connected to the network or the settings of the machine are not correct. If you do not need to connect to a network, you can specify the setting so this message is not displayed, and then [Check Status] no longer lights up.

  • If you reconnect the machine to the network, be sure to set "Display" by configuring the appropriate user parameter.
