ES3640 MFP Roadmap
Introduction
The ES3640 MFP from Oki Printing Solutions
prints, scans, and copies excellent color documents
for a wide variety of applications, from general
business to professional level graphic arts. This
booklet gives you some guidelines for getting the
best results for your particular situation. It also
points you to portions of the documentation suite
that provide details on specific topics covered here.
Setup and Installation
These documents tell you how to assemble the
MFP, install software, and configure the network
connection:
• The MFP Technician’s Installation Guide,
printed, included with the printing unit
• The MFP Software Installation Guide, printed,
included with the printing unit
• The EFI ® User’s Software Installation Guide,
an Adobe ® pdf file located on the
Documentation CD
• The EFI Configuration Guide, for network
configuration, an Adobe pdf file located on the
Documentation CD.
Copying and Scanning
For instructions on how to perform copying and
scanning functions, press the HELP button on the
scanning unit’s control panel. You’ll see a list of
topics. Touch the topic you want to learn about,
then touch GOTO. The screen shows step-by-step
directions.
For more information, check these sources:
• The Handy Reference Guide, attached to the
side of your MFP
• The MFP User’s Guide, an Adobe pdf file
located on the Documentation CD
• The EFI Printing Guide, an Adobe pdf file
located on the Documentation CD.
Printing
There are two sources of information about the
hardware aspects of the printing unit:
• The Handy Reference Guide, attached to the
side of your printing unit
• The MFP User’s Guide, an Adobe pdf file
located on the Documentation CD.
Both of these explain how to use the printing unit’s
control panel, select and load paper, order and
install consumables, and solve simple problems.
For quick information, use the Handy Reference.
For more details, go to the MFP User’s Guide.
For paper jams and certain other problems, you
can also press the HELP button on the printing
unit’s control panel for quick information.
General Business Use
For most purposes, use the PostScript ® (Fiery ® )
driver. It produces the best color quality and prints
superior graphics. It also has special settings that
optimize printing from PowerPoint ® .
Setting up the Fiery Driver
The Fiery driver sends a print file to a queue. For
business use, configure the driver to send to the
Direct queue (see the EFI Configuration Guide).
This prints the file and discards it.
Don’t use the Print queue or the Hold queue. These
queues leave the file on the server, which takes up
space and could present security problems if you’re
printing sensitive files. They also require an
administrator to control printing and deleting files.
See chapter 3 of the EFI Configuration Guide for
information on the queues.
NOTE
For details on working with color in office
applications, see chapter 3 of the EFI Color
Reference Guide.
