Rear View On/Off Switch Socket for Power Cord Parallel Interface USB Interface Network Interface Optional Duplex Unit Rear Stacker (face up), Capacity100 sheets 20-lb. US Bond (75 g/m²) paper 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.

C5300 Media Recommendations • 13

Envelopes • Use only recommended envelopes (Oki 52206301 and 52206302: see “Selecting/Using OKI Print Media“ in your C5300 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. 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. CAUTION Print media must be able to withstand 446°F (230°C) for 0.2 second. Yes No

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. (See page 187.) 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.

Macintosh OS 8.6-9.2.2 Operation The printer driver supplied provides several controls for altering the color output of your printer. For general use, the Auto settings will suffice, providing reasonable default settings that will produce good results for most documents. Many applications have their own color settings and these may override the settings in the printer driver. Please refer to the documentation for your software application for details on how that particular program’s color management functions. This section will only detail options as they apply to the LaserWriter 8 driver. Refer to manufacturer’s guidelines regarding other driver operations, for example the AdobePS driver. COLOR PRINT MATCHING 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

C5300 Macintosh OS 8.6-9.2.2 Operation • 28

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. These options are explained in subsequent sections of the User Manual. To access the color matching options in the driver discussed below: 1. Access the printer settings page via the Print dialog from any application (usually accessed via File — Print). 2. Click on the General drop down menu and select Color Option. 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. There are several settings found on a typical monitor: • 5000k* Warmest; yellowish lighting, typically used in graphics arts environments. 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.

C5300 Macintosh OS 8.6-9.2.2 Operation • 29

• 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 one 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. RGB or CMYK? The guidelines for choosing a color matching method make 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 (found in the printer driver under Color Control) is a generally a good choice. Select a matching method appropriate to your monitor. 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.

C5300 Macintosh OS 8.6-9.2.2 Operation • 31

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 (For instance, a Company logo.) RGB only • Oki Color Matching, and the sRGB setting. • PostScript Color Matching using the Absolute Colorimetric option. • Use the Color Swatch Utility to print out a chart of RGB swatches and enter your desired RGB values in your application's color picker. RGB or CMYK • If you are printing 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). • Alternatively, use PostScript Color Matching with the Absolute Colorimetric setting. Printing Vivid Colors RGB only • Use Oki Color Matching, with either the Monitor 6500k Vivid, sRGB or Digital Camera settings. RGB or CMYK • Use PostScript Color Matching with the Saturation option.

Oki Driver Options This section references only the OKI-supplied driver selections, Color Option and Job Option, as well as the plug-ins Job Accounting and Job Type - if available. Color Option 1. To access Color Option, first select your desired printer from an application using File—Print.

C5300 Macintosh OS 8.6-9.2.2 Operation Oki Driver Options • 33

2. Then open the drop-down menu directly underneath the printer and select Color Option. Color Control The Color Control option allows you to determine the scheme in which the printer will display colors. 1. Select the option desired. OKI Color Matching This is OKI’s proprietary color matching system and affects RGB data only. This is the default setting and provides the fastest, best color matching for your printer. Postscript Color Matching This uses PostScript Color Rendering Dictionaries built-in to the printer, and affects both RGB and CMYK data.

C5300 Macintosh OS 8.6-9.2.2 Operation Oki Driver Options • 34

No Color Matching No color correction occurs when selected. This option is beneficial when other matching regimens are used, specifically if you select a Color Simulation option. Print In Grayscale No color will print. The printer will interpret all colors as a variation of grays. Color Setting This option allows you to select your color settings as they appear on your monitor. 1. Select the option desired. Monitor(6500k) Auto The default setting that selects the best options for your printer. This selection works best for office situations. Monitor (6500k) Perceptual Optimized for printing photographs when using a monitor with a color temperature of 6500K, This is best for printing photographic images. Monitor (6500k) Vivid Optimized for printing bright colors when using a monitor with a color temperature of 6500K. Ideal for office graphics and text. Vivid or Digital Camera settings produce brightest colors. 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

C5300 Macintosh OS 8.6-9.2.2 Operation Oki Driver Options • 35

photographs, other settings may be better depending on the subjects and the conditions under which they were taken. Vivid or Digital Camera settings produce brightest colors. sRGB Optimized for matching specific colors, such as a company logo color. This option attempts to simulate RGB color. The colors within the printer's color gamut are printed without any modification, and only colors that fall outside the printable colors are modified. Rendering 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. 1. Select the option desired. Auto The default. Auto uses the optimum settings for a general office environment. 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 & saturated colors if you don't necessarily care how accurate the colors are. 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.

C5300 Macintosh OS 8.6-9.2.2 Operation Oki Driver Options • 36

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; i.e. unlike Absolute Colorimetric, this attempts to take the paper white into account. 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. Color Simulation This affects CMYK output only and is usually used in offset printer environments only. This option simulates what the output will look on a printing press using the ink types SWOP, Euroscale or Japan. If using CMYK Ink Simulation, it is recommended that you switch off all other Printer Color Matching by selecting the No Color Matching option under the Color Match option in the printer driver. 1. Select the option desired. Black Finish This setting determines Black Toner usage only. Auto This option is best for an office environment, with the printer determining which style is better.

C5300 Macintosh OS 8.6-9.2.2 Operation Oki Driver Options • 37

Glossy This option uses more CMYK and less Black while producing a shinier black. Matte This option uses more Black and less CMYK while producing a flatter black.

Macintosh OS 10.2 Operation This section explains how to change the printer’s operation for specific print jobs when required and is accessed directly from within an application. Most applications allow the printer properties to be accessed from within the document print dialogue. This section will first detail options as they apply to the OKI printer driver, followed by a general discussion of certain common printer driver options. Refer to manufacturer’s guidelines regarding other driver operations. COLOR PRINT MATCHING The install utility provides a color matching profile for your printer. In general, using the OKI Color Matching settings will provide reasonable default settings that produce good results for most documents. Many applications have their own color settings and these may override the settings in the printer driver. Please refer to the documentation for your software application for details on how that particular program’s color management functions. Factors that affect the appearance of prints 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. Additionally, 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, Yellow, Magenta and Black (CMYK) toner or ink.

C5300 Macintosh OS 10.2 Operation • 64

• 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. ICC Color Profile Select Apple provides a ColorSync Utility — Devices that allows selection of the OKI supplied ICC color profile for your monitor. The profile will attempt to calibrate the monitor to more closely match the printer’s output. However, merely selecting the profile will not automatically produce perfect results as many factors will contribute to the gamut of color selection. 1. Navigate to the utility by accessing your Local Hard Drive — Applications — Utilities — ColorSync Utility.

Monitor settings The brightness and contrast controls on your monitor can change how your document looks on-screen. You can calibrate your monitor’s color regimen in System Preferences — Displays — Color. Additionally, your monitor color temperature influences how "warm" or "cool" the colors look. There are several settings found on a typical monitor: • 5000k or D50 Warmest; yellowish lighting, typically used in graphics arts environments. • 6500k or D65 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 Macromedia Freehand or Adobe Photoshop may display color differently from "office" applications such as Microsoft Word. Please see your application’s online 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. 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.

CHOOSING A COLOR MATCHING METHOD There is no one correct way to achieve a good color match between the document displayed on your monitor, and it's printed equivalent. There are many factors involved in achieving accurate and reproducible color. However, 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. RGB or CMYK? The guidlines for choosing a color matching method makes distinctions between Red, Green, Blue (RGB) and Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black (CMYK). Generally, most office 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 used in professional Desktop Publishing and Graphics applications. Matching Photographic Images RGB only Oki’s Color Matching (found in the printer driver under Printer Features — Features 2) is a generally a good choice. Select a matching method appropriate to your monitor. 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.

C5300 Macintosh OS 10.2 Operation • 69

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 (For instance, a Company logo.) RGB only • Oki Color Matching, and the sRGB setting. • PostScript Color Matching using the Absolute Colorimetric option. RGB or CMYK • If you are printing 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). • Alternatively, use PostScript Color Matching with the Absolute Colorimetric setting. Printing Vivid Colors RGB only • Use Oki Color Matching, with either the Monitor 6500k Vivid, sRGB or Digital Camera settings. RGB or CMYK • Use PostScript Color Matching with the Saturation option.

Feature Set 3 The tab’s features are explained below. Quality A straightforward selection of the print quality desired. • Fast: low resolution, fast speed: choose this for quick proofing of drafts. • Fine: the default - high resolution, slower speed: Provides optimum results when printing graphics. 1. Select your desired print quality. Rendering Intent 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.

C5300 Macintosh OS 10.2 Operation • 77

1. Select the option desired. 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. Auto The best default select as this selects the optimal settings for a general office environment. Perceptual Best choice for printing photographs. Compresses the source gamut into the printer's gamut whilst maintaining the overall appearance of an image. This may change the overall appearance of an image as all the colors are shifted together. 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; i.e. unlike Absolute Colorimetric, this attempts to take the paper white into account. Saturation Best choice for printing bright and saturated colors if you don't necessarily care how accurate the colors are. 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.

GENERAL PRINTING DIRECTIONS What follows are descriptions of common printing issues common to the Macintosh environment. This section does not attempt to cover all the options that might occur, but rather, the typical printing operations that can benefit from detailed descriptions. The settings selected here are document specific only; meaning, the setting selected will apply only to the current print job. You can also refer to your Macintosh online help or manual for further information. Collating Collating can be carried out with or without a hard disk drive installed. However, installing an HDD will achieve greater performance. If the software application being used has a collate print option, it is recommended to use only one collate option to prevent any conflicts in printing, i.e. collate from the software application or collate from the printer driver. The following instructions explain how to select collating using a printer driver. 1. To access, first select your desired printer from an application using File—Print.. 2. The Copies & Pages dialog box should already be displayed. If not, then select Copies & Pages from the menu.
