Kyocera TASKalfa 3554ci Settings That Avoid a Service Call
Four settings on a TASKalfa 3554ci are worth getting right on day one: duplex as the default, the correct stock loaded in the correct cassette, scanning one page at a time, and the N up setting when you copy rather than print.
Each is a menu change.
Duplex is set once and roughly halves the sheets a long document uses.
Paper is the one that bites, because stock the cassette was not set up for will skew as it feeds and jam.
The multi purpose tray exists for everything that is not plain A4, and it takes anything from A6R up to SRA3.
Scanning one page at a time is slower to start and faster to finish, because a mis fed stack means rescanning the lot.
None of this is maintenance in the workshop sense.

Duplex printing, on by default
Duplex printing puts both sides of a page through automatically, which is useful in any home or office.
This saves paper and, more importantly, saves time.
Gone are the days of manually flipping and reinserting pages for double sided prints—duplex printing takes care of this task smoothly.
The results?

Scanning page by page
Scanning each page individually improves accuracy and speeds up the turnaround time for your scanning tasks.
Processing and organising multiple page scans take longer, and there’s a risk of overlooking important details when the images are combined.
The N up setting for multiple pages
This feature allows you to print multiple pages on a single sheet, conserving both paper and computer storage space, a function available through Kyocera Mobile Print.
The “N-up” setting saves filing space, and it saves time when a document is needed urgently.
