Types Before purchasing a large quantity of special media, do a trial print with the same media and check the print quality. Keep media on a flat, level surface in its original wrapper until it is time to load it.
Wet (or damp) " Keep media between 35% and 85% relative humidity. Toner does not adhere well to moist or wet media.
DO NOT use thick stock that is Mixed with any other media in the trays (as this will cause media misfeeding) Envelope Print on the front (address) side only. Some parts of the envelope consist of three layers of paper—the front, back, and flap. Anything printed in these layered regions may be lost or faded. You can print continuously with envelope. However, this could affect the media feed, depending on the media quality and printing environment.
Labels A sheet of labels consists of a face sheet (the printing surface), adhesive, and a carrier sheet: The face sheet must follow the plain paper specification. The face sheet surface must cover the entire carrier sheet, and no adhesive should come through on the surface. You can print continuously with label sheets. However, this could affect the media feed, depending on the media quality and printing environment. If problems occur, stop the continuous printing and print one sheet at a time.
Are precut or perforated Do not use OK to use Shiny backed paper Full-page labels (uncut) Letterhead You can print continuously with letterhead. However, this could affect the media feed, depending on the media quality and printing environment. If problems occur, stop the continuous printing and print one sheet at a time. Try printing your data on a sheet of plain paper first to check placement.
Use postcards that are Approved for laser printing DO NOT use postcards that are Coated Designed for inkjet printers Precut or perforated Preprinted or multicolored " If the postcard is warped, press on the warped area before putting it in Tray 1. Folded or wrinkled Transparency " " " " Do not fan transparencies before loading them. Resulting static electricity may cause printing errors. If you touch the face of the transparencies with your bare hands, print quality may be affected.
" If you have problems feeding 50 sheets, try loading only 1–10 sheets at a time. Loading a large number of transparencies at one time may cause static buildup, causing feeding problems. Capacity Tray 1 Up to 50 sheets, depending on their thickness Tray 2 Not supported Driver Transparency Media Type Duplexing " Not supported Always first test a small quantity of a particular type of transparency.
Guaranteed Imageable (Printable) Area The printable area on all media sizes is up to 4 mm (0.157") from the edges of the media. Each media size has a specific imageable area, the maximum area on which the machine can print clearly and without distortion. a a a Printable Area This area is subject to both hardware a limits (the physical media size and the a = 4 mm (0.157") margins required by the machine) and software constraints (the amount of memory available for the full-page frame buffer).
Loading Media Take off the top and bottom sheets of a ream of the media. Holding a stack of approximately 200 sheets, fan the stack to prevent static buildup before inserting it in a tray. " Do not fan transparencies. Note Although this machine was designed for printing on a wide range of media types, it is not intended to print exclusively on a single media type except plain paper.
" When loading Legal-sized paper in Tray 1, open the front panel of Tray 1.
" Do not load paper above the t mark. Up to 200 sheets (80 g/m2 [22 lb]) of plain paper can be loaded into the tray at one time.
Other Media When loading media other than plain paper, set the media mode (for example, Envelope, Labels, Thick Stock, or Transparency) in the driver for optimum print quality.
3 " " " Before loading envelopes, press them down to make sure that all air is removed, and make sure that the folds of the flaps are firmly pressed; otherwise the envelopes may become wrinkled or a media misfeed may occur. Up to 10 envelopes can be loaded into the tray at one time. Flap side down For envelopes with the flap along the long edge, load the envelopes with the flap toward the left of the machine.
5 6 " " 52 Before printing on envelopes, be sure to perform steps 6 through 11. The scanner unit cannot be released if the ADF has been opened. Be sure to gently close the ADF first, then release the scanner unit.

About Duplex Printing You should verify that the duplex option is physically installed on the machine to successfully duplex the job. Check your application to determine how to set your margins for duplex printing. Note Only plain paper, 60–90 g/m2 (16–24 lb bond), can be autoduplexed. See “Specifications” on page 38. Duplexing envelopes, labels, transparencies postcards, or glossy media is not supported. The following Double-Sided/Booklet settings are available.
Booklet " If “Left Binding” is selected, the pages can be folded as a left-bound booklet. 2 1 Only available for printer function. 1 If “Right Binding” is selected, the pages can be folded as a right-bound booklet.
Output Bin All printed media is output to the face-down output bin. This tray has a capacity of approximately 100 sheets (A4/Letter) of 80 g/m2 (22 lb) media. " " If the media is stacked too high in the output bin, your machine may experience media misfeeds, excessive media curl, or static buildup. Remove transparencies as soon as possible from the output bin to avoid static buildup. The output bin can be adjusted to two angles, as shown in the illustration at the right.
" When printing on postcards, make sure that the output bin is horizontal. If the output bin is slanted while printing, the postcards may be curled and an error message may appear before the output bin contains 10 sheets. In addition, the output bin extension can be pulled out to two different positions. Use the appropriate position depending on the size of the media being printed on.
Media Storage Keep media on a flat, level surface in its original wrapper until it is time to load it. Media that has been stored for a long time out of its packaging may dry up too much and cause misfeeding. If media has been removed from its wrapper, place it in its original packaging and store in a cool, dark place on a level surface.
Original Media Specifications Documents that can be Placed on the Original Glass The following types of documents can be placed on the original glass. Document type Sheets or books Maximum document size Legal Maximum weight 3 kg (6.6 lb) Observe the following precautions when placing a document on the original glass. Do not place objects weighing more than 3 kg (6.6 lb) on the original glass; otherwise the glass may be damaged.

9 Maintenance
Maintaining the Machine CAUTION Read all caution and warning labels carefully, making sure to follow any instructions contained in them. These labels are located on the inside of the machine’s covers and the interior of the body. Handle the machine with care to preserve its life. Abuse handling may cause damage and void your warranty. If dust and paper scraps remain on the inside or outside of the machine, machine performance and print quality will suffer, so the machine should be cleaned periodically.
Do not cover the machine immediately after using it. Turn it off and wait until it cools down. Do not leave the machine’s covers open for any length of time, especially in well-lit places; light may damage the drum cartridge. Do not open the machine’s covers during printing. Do not tap media stacks on the machine. Do not lubricate or disassemble the machine. Do not tilt the machine. Do not touch the electrical contacts, gears, or laser devices.
Cleaning the Machine CAUTION Be sure to turn off the machine and unplug the power cord before cleaning. " Use a soft, dry cloth only.

Introduction This chapter provides information to aid you in resolving machine problems you may encounter, or at least guide you to the proper sources for help.
Preventing Media Misfeeds Make sure that... Media matches the machine specifications. Media is flat, especially on the leading edge. The machine is on a hard, flat, level surface. You store media in a dry location away from moisture and humidity. The output bin is positioned horizontally when postcards are being printed. You remove transparencies from the output bin immediately after printing to avoid static buildup.
Understanding the Media Path Understanding the media path will help you locate media misfeeds. 1. ADF media feed rollers 1 2 3 2. Document feed tray 3. Document output tray 4. Fuser unit 5.
