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 http://printer.konicaminolta.com.
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.

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.

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 are 60–90 g/m2 (16–24 lb bond) can be autoduplexed. See “Specifications” on page 40. 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 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.
