Disassemble and modification  
WARNING  
• Do not attempt to remove the covers and pan-  
els which have been fixed to the product. Some  
products have a high-voltage part or a laser  
beam source inside that could cause an electri-  
cal shock or blindness.  
• Do not modify this product, as a fire, electrical  
shock, or breakdown could result. If the prod-  
uct employs a laser, the laser beam source  
could cause blindness.  
Power cord  
WARNING  
• Use only the power cord supplied in the pack-  
age. If a power cord is not supplied, only use  
the power cord and plug that is specified in  
POWER CORD INSTRUCTION. Failure to use  
this cord could result in a fire or electrical  
shock.  
• Use the power cord supplied in the package  
only for this machine and NEVER use it for any  
other product. Failure to observe this precau-  
tion could result in a fire or electrical shock.  
• Do not scratch, abrade, place a heavy object  
on, heat, twist, bend, pull on, or damage the  
power cord. Use of a damaged power cord (ex-  
posed core wire, broken wire, etc.) could result  
in a fire or breakdown.  
Should any of these conditions be found, im-  
mediately turn OFF the power switch, unplug  
the power cord from the power outlet, and then

Power source  
WARNING  
• Use only the specified power source voltage.  
Failure to do that could result in a fire or electri-  
cal shock.  
• Connect power plug directly into wall outlet

shock. If proper wall outlet is not available, the  
customer shall ask qualified electrician for the  
installation.  
• Do not use a multiple outlet adapter nor an ex-  
tension cord in principle. Use of an adapter or  
an extension cord could cause a fire or electri-  
cal shock.  
Contact your authorized service representative  
if an extension cord is required.

-
-
-
Printed pages that are to be kept for a long time should be kept where  
they are not exposed to light in order to prevent them from fading.  
Adhesive that contains solvent (e.g., spray glue) may dissolve the toner  
on printed pages.  
Color printed pages have a thicker layer of toner than normal black-and-  
white printed pages. Therefore, when a color printed page is folded, the  
toner at the fold may peel off.

Installation and operation precautions  
1
Automatically canceling the settings (automatic panel reset)  
If no operation is performed for a specified length of time while settings are  
being changed, settings that have not been programmed are cleared and re-  
turn to their defaults.  
This is the automatic panel reset operation.  
As the factory default, the automatic panel reset operation is performed after  
1 minute.  
!
Detail  
The length of time until the automatic panel reset operation is performed  
and whether or not it is performed can be set from the Utility mode. For  
details, refer to “User Setting” on page 4-33.  
Automatically conserving energy (Low Power mode)  
If no operation is performed for a specified length of time the machine auto-  
matically enters a mode where it conserves energy.  
This is the Low Power mode.  
The machine can receive jobs even while it is in Low Power mode.  
As the factory default, the machine enters Low Power mode after 10 minutes.  
Note  
When a print job is received, the machine recovers from Low Power  
mode and begins printing after it has finished warming up (within 30 sec-  
onds at normal room temperature (73.4°F)).  
The Low Power mode can also be canceled by pressing any key in the  
control panel.  
!
Detail  
The length of time until the machine enters Low Power mode can be  
changed. For details, refer to “User Setting” on page 4-33.

Installation and operation precautions

Automatically conserving energy (Sleep mode)  
If no operation is performed for a specified length of time, the machine auto-  
matically enters a mode where it conserves energy.  
Although the machine conserves more energy in Sleep mode than in Low  
Power mode, the machine must warm up when Sleep mode is canceled to  
begin printing again, therefore taking more preparation time than Low Power  
mode.  
As the factory default, the machine enters Sleep mode after 15 minutes.  
Note  
When a print job is received, the machine recovers from Low Power  
mode and begins printing after it has finished warming up (within 110  
seconds at normal room temperature (73.4 °F)).  
The Sleep mode can also be canceled by pressing any key in the control  
panel.  
!
Detail  
The length of time until the machine enters Sleep mode can be changed.  
For details, refer to “User Setting” on page 4-33.  
Power supply  
Be sure to turn off the machine if it is not to be used for a long period of time,  
for example, overnight.  
In order to ensure that no energy is being consumed, unplug the machine.

Note  
Be sure to restart the computer.  
Even if the printer driver is deleted using the method described above,  
the model information file will remain in the computer. Therefore, the driv-  
er may not be able to be overwritten when reinstalling the same version  
of the printer driver. When installing the same version of the printer driver,  
be sure to also delete the files described below.  
Check the “C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86” folder and  
delete the folder of the corresponding model if it is available. If the Konica  
Minolta PCL driver and Konica Minolta PostScript driver are both in-  
stalled, the model information of both drivers is deleted. If one driver is  
remaining, do not delete it.  
Delete the “oem*.inf” and “oem*.PNF” files in the “C:\WINDOWS\inf”  
folder. (The asterisk (*) in the file name displays a number, and the  
number varies according to the environment of the computer.) Before de-  
leting the files, open the INF file, check that the model name is described  
in the last several lines, and then check that the file of the corresponding  
model is available.  
The PNF file is the same number as the INF file.

Note  
The network settings should be specified according to instructions from  
the network administrator.  
A password is required in order to enter Administrator mode. Contact the  
administrator for the administrator password.  
!
Detail  
Although the IP address is entered without using the DHCP server in the  
procedure described here, it is also possible that the IP address automat-  
ically be assigned by the DHCP server. When “IP def. method” is set to  
“Auto Input” and “DHCP Setting” is set to “Enable”, the IP address, sub-  
net mask and default gateway are automatically assigned by the DHCP  
server on the network, so it is not necessary to assign them manually.  
However, consider the following when setting “DHCP Setting” to “Ena-  
ble”.  
Consult with the network administrator to check that a DHCP server ex-  
ists. If a DHCP server does not exist, be sure to specify settings for “IP  
Address”, “Subnet Mask” and “Default Gateway”.  
If the IP address and other settings have been assigned by the DHCP  
server, they may automatically be changed. If the IP address and other  
settings are changed and a printer on the network has been specified by  
its IP address for printing, printing may not be possible since this ma-  
chine cannot communicate with the network.  
If “DHCP Setting” has been set to “Enable”, it is recommended that a  
fixed IP address be assigned to this machine in the DCHP server settings.
