How To Set The 10/100 Ethernet Card To 10 Or 100 Mbps

Press the menu key once with the printer on-line and it will printout instructions on how to change from the default setting of Auto, which detects the best speed to connect.

"No Process Unit" Error

You must install a new toner bottle into the process unit before powering the printer on with the new  process unit . When the process unit initialises it checks to ensure that there is toner present. If there is none it reports no process unit. If you are replacing the process unit using the toner bottle from the one on the previous unit it will not work as it now contains no toner.  It was immediately dropped into the process unit when it was originally locked into place. 

How To Select Paper Size In The Multi-Function Feeder (MFF)
To select the paper size you require you must first take the printer off-line by pressing the Ready button; then press and hold the Tray Select/MFF Paper Size button until MFF Paper = A4 etc. is displayed.  Now use the up or down arrow keys until the desired paper size is displayed and press the Enter button. Put the printer back on-line by pressing the Ready button again.
Selecting Additional Paper Path Options In Windows Printer Driver

When you put additional paper options on the printer you must enable the options in the Printer’s Driver Properties so you can select them from the application.  To make sure this has been done if you look at the Printer Driver Properties through your application (File, Print, T9112/6 Properties) the picture of the printer that is displayed represents the paper sources that are currently available.  If your chosen paper source is not displayed you have not selected it in the Printer Driver.  If you go to Printer Properties in the driver  (Start, Settings, Printers, Properties) and select the Printer Options heading you can now select your additional trays.  Incidentally when you do have your option enabled you can actually click the mouse pointer on the displayed printer properties in your application for the paper source you want to select and the driver will select the correct paper tray.

Clearing The "Replace Parts" Message

The "Replace Parts" message appears on the display when the Process Unit has reached its End of Life. Remove the End Of Lifed unit and install a new process unit and toner.

  4. Press the Enter button to select "Clear Warning"
  5. Press the Enter button again if the display shows "Print Unit".

"Stacker Full" Message

On a long print run the printer may stop with the STACKER FULL message in the display.

Do not panic! It just means that your paper output stack i.e. you pile of paper on the lid of the printer is too large and you need to remove some or all of it. There is a small black plastic switch on the lid of the printer, if this is pushed up because of the size of your printed paper pile, the printer indicates the above error.
