Media 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. For a list of approved media, refer to printer.konicaminolta.com.
" Keep media between 15% and 85% relative humidity. Toner does not adhere well to moist or wet paper.
DO NOT use thick stock that is Mixed with any other media in Tray 1 (as this will cause printer misfeeding) Envelopes 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.
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.
Letterhead Try printing your data on a sheet of plain paper first to check placement.

Loading Media How do I load media? Take off the top and bottom sheets of a ream of paper. Holding a stack of approximately 200 sheets at a time, fan the stack to prevent static buildup before inserting it in a tray. Note Although this printer 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.
2 3 Slide the media guides to provide more space between them. Load the paper face up in the tray. " Do not load paper above the M mark. Up to 200 sheets (80 g/m2 [21 lb]) of plain paper can be loaded into the tray at one time.

Duplexing Select paper with high opacity for duplex (double sided) printing. Opacity refers to how effectively paper blocks out what is written on the opposite side of the page. If the paper has low opacity (high translucency), then the printed data from one side of the page will show through to the other side. Check your application for margin information. For best results, print a small quantity to make sure the opacity is acceptable.
In addition, if “N-up” has been set to “Booklet”, autoduplex printing is performed. The following Order settings are available when “Booklet” is selected. If “Left Binding” is selected, the pages can be folded as a left-bound booklet. 2 1 1 If “Right Binding” is selected, the pages can be folded as a right-bound booklet. 1 2 3 3 3 1 2 3 1 Load plain paper into the tray. From the printer driver, specify the layout for duplex printing. Click OK.
Media Storage How do I store media? 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. Avoid moisture, excessive humidity, direct sunlight, excessive heat (above 35°C [95°F]), and dust.

Troubleshooting
Introduction This chapter provides information to aid you in resolving printer problems you may encounter, or at least guide you to the proper sources for help.
Press Key Until Display Reads CONFIGURATION YES The configuration page prints and the printer goes back to IDLE.
Preventing Media Misfeeds Make sure that... Media matches the printer specifications. Media is flat, especially on the leading edge. The printer is on a hard, flat, level surface. You store media in a dry location away from moisture and humidity. You always adjust the media guides in Tray 1 after inserting the media (a guide that is not properly adjusted can cause poor print quality, media misfeeds, and printer damage).
Understanding the Media Path Understanding the printer’s media path will help you locate media misfeeds. 1 Output tray 2 Imaging cartridge 1 3 Toner cartridge carousel 2 4 Tray 1 3 5 Tray 2 (optional) 4 6 7 6 Fuser unit 7 Duplex option 5 Clearing Media Misfeeds To avoid damage, always remove misfed media gently, without tearing it. Any piece of media left in the printer, whether large or small, can obstruct the media path and cause further misfeeds. Do not reload media that has misfed.
Media Misfeed Messages and Clearing Procedures Media Misfeed Message CHECK TRAY1 PAPER (Displaying alternately) PRESS MENU/SELECT PAPER JAM FUSER PAPER JAM EXIT PAPER JAM TRANSFER PAPER JAM TRAY2 OPEN TOP COVER PAPER JAM DUPLEX 8-6 Page Reference This message appears in the following cases. z When no media is loaded in Tray 1 z When a misfeed has occurred in Tray 1 With the first case, load media into the tray, and then press the Menu Select key. With the second case, refer to page 8-13.
Clearing a Media Misfeed in the Printer 1 Open the top cover. " 2 If there is paper in the output tray, remove it, and then fold up the output tray before opening the top cover. Grab the handle and lift it up slightly to the back, and then slowly pull the imaging cartridge out vertically.
Note Do not touch the PC drum and the transfer belt on the imaging cartridge. Position the removed imaging cartridge as shown in the illustration at the right. Be sure to keep the imaging cartridge horizontally horizontal and place it where it will not become dirty. Do not leave the imaging cartridge removed for more than 15 minutes, and do not place the removed imaging cartridge in a location where it would be exposed to direct light (such as sunlight).
3 Push the fuser separator levers back as far as possible. CAUTION The area around the fuser unit is extremely hot. Touching anything other than the indicated levers may result in burns. If you get burned, immediately cool the skin under cold water, and then seek professional medical attention.
4 Remove any misfed media. " If a media misfeed occurs near the fuser unit, pull out the media from below the fuser unit, as shown in the illustration at the right. M " If the media cannot be removed from below the fuser unit, raise the fuser unit cover, and then remove the media from above the fuser unit. M " 8-10 Remove the dust cover from Tray 1 and remove the media.
Note Do not touch the paper exit sensor on the fuser unit. M Note Decreased print quality may result if the surface of the transfer roller is touched. Be careful not to touch the surface of the transfer roller.
5 Return the fuser separator levers to their original positions. M 6 7 8-12 Slowly insert the imaging cartridge vertically, and then push it slightly down toward you to finish reinstalling the imaging cartridge. Carefully close the top cover.
Clearing a Media Misfeed From Tray 1 1 2 Remove the dust cover from Tray 1. Carefully pull out the misfed media. " If the media cannot be removed, instead of pulling it with extreme force, clear the media misfeed according to the procedure described in “Clearing a Media Misfeed in the Printer” on page 8-7. 3 Reattach the dust cover. 4 Press the Menu Select key.
Clearing a Media Misfeed From Tray 2 1 Pull out Tray 2 as far as possible. 2 Lift up Tray 2 to remove it. 3 Remove any misfed paper. " 8-14 If necessary, remove the dust cover from Tray 1 and close the tray.
4 5 6 7 Remove the lid from Tray 2, and then remove all paper from the tray. Fan the paper, and align its edges. Press down the media pressure plate to lock it into place. Load the media in Tray 2, and attach the lid.
8 9 8-16 Reinsert Tray 2. Open and close the top cover to clear the misfeed message.
Clearing a Media Misfeed from the Duplex Option 1 2 Open the duplex cover. Carefully pull out the misfed media. " " Always remove the misfed media in the feed direction as shown only. If the media misfeed occurs at the bottom feed slot and the media does not stick out enough to be removed, turn the dial at the right in the direction of the arrow until the media can be pulled out.
3 8-18 Close the duplex cover.
Solving Problems with Media Misfeeds " Frequent misfeeds in any area indicate that area should be checked, repaired, or cleaned. Repeated misfeeds may also happen if you’re using unsupported print media. Symptom Cause Solution Several sheets go through the printer together. The front edges of the media are not even.
