Accessing the Document Server

The Document Server enables you to store documents on the machine's hard disk, and allows you to edit and print them as necessary.

Important

  • Applications with their own drivers, such as PageMaker, do not support this function.

Note

  • When you use the Document Server, the following functions can be selected using the control panel:

    • Copies

    • Collate

    • Duplex

    • Staple

    • Paper selection: Paper source tray, paper type, paper output tray.

    • Functions related to paper selection: Cover Sheet, Slip Sheet.

  • The above items are dimmed, so you cannot set them from the printer properties dialog box when the Document Server is selected.

  • You must enter a user ID, using up to eight alphanumeric characters.

  • You should enter a password and file name to distinguish the job from others.

  • Up to 3,000 files can be stored in the Document Server. New files cannot be stored when 3,000 files have already been stored. Even if less than 3,000 files are stored, new files cannot be stored when

    • a file to be stored contains more than 2,000 pages.

    • the machine's sent or stored files total over 9,000 black-and-white pages. (The total varies depending on the size of the files.)

    • the hard disk is full.

    • the machine's sent or stored files total over 2,000 color pages. (The total varies depending on the size of the files.)

  • The Document Server also stores files scanned using the ADF or exposure glass. You should delete unnecessary stored files once in a while so as not to exceed the capacity of the hard disk. For details about deleting stored files, see “Document Server”, Copy and Document Server Reference.

  • When using the hard disk for functions other than those of Document Server, you may not be able to store new files in the Document Server, even if there are less than 3,000 files stored.

  • For details about Document Server functions, see “Document Server”, Copy and Document Server Reference.

  • For details about how to access Document Server from a client computer, see the printer driver Help.
