(or the next job). These page images are available as soon as the current page is printed. For example, while the QMS 4060 Print System is actually printing the third page of a five-page document, pages four, five, and the next job in the queue are already compiled into the com- pressed data format.
Page 22 User Benefit—You have the option of printing on a variety of media sizes in both portrait and landscape orientations. The QMS 4060 Print System provides PostScript Level 2 page description capabilities via QMS-developed emulations that are com- patible with Adobe’s Level 2 language, while providing additional capabilities.
Page 23 PostScript and PCL print jobs that require finer detail, such as good camera-ready copy or for CAD drawings that demand tighter angles. The QMS 4060 Print System delivers 40 simplex letter/A4 size ppm at 300 x 300 or 600x600 dpi resolution using the new NEC 4300 pro- cessor operating at a 100 MHz.
Page 24 See appendix A, “QMS Customer Support,” for locations and telephone numbers. You can connect a computer directly to the printer’s parallel interface or use the Ethernet interface to connect to a wide variety of micro- computers, workstations, minicomputers, and mainframe computers on four different networks.
Page 25 The user-friendly control panel allows you to configure your printer. The printer uses the control panel to communicate with you by provid- ing messages about its status, including any conditions that require your attention.
Page 26: Software Loadable System
Your printer has 16 resident PCL 5e type face families in 25 symbol sets each: 51 resident scalable PCL 5e fonts (including Intellifonts), many in up to 32 symbol sets: and 40 HP-GL fonts.
Page 27 (such as duplexing or finishing options), and number, complexity, and size of jobs per user. The QMS 4060 printer controller contains a “real time clock” which automatically stamps the time and date on your accounting information.
Page 28 The Conserve Toner option allows you to increase the life of the printer’s toner. You can set Conserve Toner on a per-job basis or for all print jobs. In addition the printer can actually recycle the waste toner through the machine again for increased toner life.
Page 29 User Benefit—Plug and play reduces the time wasted on technical problems and increases your productivity. The QMS 4060 Print System offers many options to expand its capa- bilities. Contact your QMS vendor for purchase information. See appendix A, “QMS Customer Support,” for locations and telephone numbers.
Page 30 User Benefit—Optional fonts increase the printer’s functionality and allow you to create more distinctive documents The QMS 4060 Print System includes an internal IDE hard disk and is expandable by connecting up to three external SCSI hard disks. Hard disks provide virtual memory capabilities as well as storage for downloaded character bitmaps, job spooling, outline fonts, forms, and other files.
Page 31 QMS Crown print systems. It enables the QMS 4060 Print System to print images at or near the rated engine speed and eliminates the need for a PC dedicated to rasterizing images.
Page 32: Large-Capacity Input Feeder
User Benefit—Provides and easy migration path for users of legacy line printers to new laser print systems. Your QMS 4060 Print System is configured with 32 MB of interleaved RAM. It can support up to 128 MB of RAM with additional matched pairs of SIMMs (single-in-line memory modules).

Page 54 Use these illustrations to get acquainted to the external components of your QMS 4060 Print System.
Page 56 Note: After installing consumables for the first time (except for paper) » all subsequent changes of consumables will require you to tell the printer you have performed the maintenance through the configuration menu. See chapter 2, “Consumables,” in the Operation manual.
Page 57 Check the starter kit for these components. Some of the components are packaged in cardboard boxes for shipment. You do not have to unpack these components until you’re ready to install them.
Page 58 Find the fuser box in the starter kit, remove the box from the starter kit and unpack the fuser from the box. Remove the fuser from its packaging. Open the front door of the printer. Turn lever b1 to the right to unlock the internal components.
Page 59 Insert the fuser into the printer by aligning the fuser with the guides inside the printer. Gently push the fuser all the way to the back of the printer to make sure that it is properly seated.
Page 60 If the fuser does not seat properly Hold the fuser up against the printer using light pressure. Carefully rotate the decurler roller knob clock wise until the fuser seats flush against the printer.
Page 61 Caution: The drum unit is sensitive to bright light. Do not remove the drum unit from its protective bag until you are ready to install it. Store the cartridge in an environment that is not subject to extreme heat or humidity, salty air, or corrosive gases, such as aerosols.
Page 62 Note: After removing the drum unit from its protective bag, do not touch the OPC drum on the unit because it may deteriorate the drum and reduce print quality. Also, we recommend that you keep the bag for use if you should have to remove the drum from the printer.
Page 63 While holding the drum by the handle, set it on a solid sur- face and carefully remove the protective cover from the drum. Make sure lever b1 is turned to the right to the open position.
Page 64 Use the drum handles on the top and front to insert the drum unit along the guide rails and gently push it all the way in to make sure it is seated.

Page 77 Remove the toner bottle from the starter kit and remove it from its packaging. » Note: The life of the initial toner bottle is less than 6000 pages. Shake the contents of the toner bottle to loosen any toner that has settled and packed during shipment.
Page 78 Open the toner fill lid. Line up the guide pins on the bottle with the guide pin slots on the toner fill opening. Insert and turn the toner bottle clockwise 180° (1/2 turn) to start filling.
Page 79 Tap the toner bottle several times to make sure all of the toner has emptied. » Note: It takes about 30 seconds for the bottle to empty. When the bottle is empty, turn the toner bottle 180° (1/2 turn) counter-clockwise and lift up to remove. Close the toner fill lid.
Page 80 Dispose of the toner bottle. Note: The toner bottle is made of recyclable materials. Dispose » of it in accordance with local regulations. Toner recycling will add 20-30% of life to a toner bottle. You have the option of recycling waste toner or disposing of it. For optimal print quality, we do not recommend recycling.

Page 85 The printer will begin an automatic cycle to set the toner density. After about two minutes you should get a start-up page. The QMS 4060 Print System includes three 500-sheet adjustable paper trays. All three paper trays hold either A3, A4, A5, B4, B5,...
Page 86 » letter paper must be loaded only when the tray is set to letter size). Since the paper tray sends a paper size signal to the printer controller, using a wrong size paper will cause jamming or the image positioned incorrectly on the page.
Page 87 Turn the thumbscrew counter-clockwise to unlock one of the paper size guides. You should be able to lift up and remove the paper size guide after unlocking it. Move the paper size guide to the appropriate slots to align it with the paper size marker.
Page 88 Turn the dial to clockwise to lock the paper size guide. Repeat steps 1-5 for the other two paper size guides. » Note: If you are setting up the tray for 11 " x17 " (ledger), the left paper guide is stored in a slot near the front section of the tray. Set up the tray paper size tabs on the rear of the paper tray.
Page 89 Open the plastic bag in the starter kit containing the paper- size cards. Break off the label that indicates the correct paper size for each tray. Pull out each tray and push out the paper-size holder. Place the paper-size lable in the paper-size holder of each tray.
Page 90 Note: Paper is packed in reams of 500 sheets. Do not unpack the » paper above the printer as this might cause particles to fall into the printer components. Note the arrows on the wrapper. They show print side of the paper.
Page 91 Ensure that the paper stack lies flat and does not exceed the top limit mark. Caution: Never mix the types of paper loaded in a tray. This could result in multiple sheet feeds and other paper handling problems. If the paper doesn’t fit properly in the tray recheck your paper guides to make sure they are in the proper position.
