Media Types
This section describes the different types of media which can be loaded in your device. For further
information about media types and specifications, refer to www.xerox.com.
The Type can be selected from a drop-down menu for the adjustable trays. It is important to select the
correct Type setting for the media loaded in each tray. The device can detect different types of media
as it travels through the paper path and will halt a job if a mismatch occurs.
The following table identifies the media types available, a description of each type and the tray
loading instructions.
Media Type Description Loading Instructions
Plain, Recycled and
Bond
The device supports media
that has been designed for
laser devices, such as Xerox
Recycled paper.
Plain, Recycled and Bond paper can be loaded in any
tray.
Carbonless paper can also be used with this media
type, instructions for use are provided with the paper.
Punched Used for hole punched and
perforated media which
has two or more holes
along one edge for use in
ring binders and
notebooks.
Before loading hole punched media make sure that
any plugs (the round pieces cut out of the paper to
create the holes) do not remain in the stack. Fan the
media to separate the individual sheets.
Trays 1, 2, 3 and 4:
• Load paper face-down with the holes on the left
edge.
Tray 5 and Bypass Tray:
• Load paper face-up with the holes on the right.
Transparency Used to create images that
can be projected on to a
screen for presentations, or
as covers. Transparencies
are made of polyester film
coated with a chemical
substance. Clear
transparencies allow
maximum presentation
space.
Bypass Tray only:
• Load paper-backed transparencies face-up with
the adhesive side to the right.
• Load transparencies which have a white strip
along one edge with the strip to the right and on
the underside of the transparencies.
• Load transparencies on top of a small stack of
same-size paper and fan transparencies to stop
them sticking together.
• If a coating of oil remains on the transparency
after printing, remove it with a lint free cloth.

printed

and letterhead paper.
