To remove the hard disk: a Unplug the printer hard disk interface cable from the system board, leaving the cable attached to the printer hard disk. To unplug the cable, squeeze the paddle at the plug of the interface cable to disengage the latch before pulling the cable out. b Remove the screws holding the printer hard disk in place.
c Remove the printer hard disk by pulling it upward to unseat the standoffs. d Remove the thumbscrews that attach the printer hard disk mounting bracket to the printer hard disk, and then remove the bracket. Set the printer hard disk aside.
4 Remove the metal cover from the ISP opening. 2 1 5 Align the posts of the plastic tee to the holes in the system board, and then press downward until the tee snaps into place. Be sure each post of the tee has latched completely, and that the tee is seated firmly onto the system board.
6 Install the ISP onto the plastic tee. Angle the ISP over the plastic tee, and then approach the plastic tee so that any overhanging connectors will pass through the ISP opening in the system board cage. 7 Lower the ISP toward the plastic tee until the ISP is seated between the guides of the plastic tee. 8 Insert the long thumbscrew and turn it clockwise enough to hold the ISP in place, but do not tighten the thumbscrew at this time.
9 Attach the two provided screws to secure the ISP mounting bracket to the system board cage. 10 Tighten the long thumbscrew. Note: Do not overtighten the thumbscrew. 11 Insert the plug of the ISP interface cable into the receptacle of the system board. Note: The plugs and receptacles are color coded. 12 If a printer hard disk was previously installed, then attach the printer hard disk to the ISP. For more information, see “Installing a printer hard disk” on page 38.
13 Replace the system board cover and close the system board door. 2 1 3 Installing a printer hard disk The optional printer hard disk can be installed with or without a Lexmark Internal Solutions Port (ISP). Note: This task requires a #2 Phillips screwdriver and a flathead screwdriver.

Paper and specialty media guidelines Paper guidelines Selecting the correct paper or specialty media reduces printing problems. For the best print quality, try a sample of the paper or specialty media before buying large quantities. Paper characteristics The following paper characteristics affect print quality and reliability. Consider these characteristics when evaluating new paper stock.
For 60–176 g/m2 (16–47 lb bond) paper, grain long paper is recommended. For paper heavier than 176 g/m2, grain short is recommended. Fiber content Most high-quality xerographic paper is made from 100% chemically treated pulped wood. This content provides the paper with a high degree of stability resulting in fewer paper feeding problems and better print quality. Paper containing fibers such as cotton can negatively affect paper handling.
Use papers printed with heat-resistant inks designed for use in xerographic copiers. The ink must be able to withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without melting or releasing hazardous emissions. Use inks that are not affected by the resin in toner. Inks that are oxidation-set or oil-based generally meet these requirements; latex inks might not. When in doubt, contact the paper supplier.
Supported paper sizes, types, and weights The following tables provide information on standard and optional paper sources and the types of paper they support. Note: For an unlisted paper size, configure a Universal Paper Size. For information on card stock and labels, see the Card Stock & Label Guide on the Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com/publications.

• Page orientation is important when printing on letterhead. For information on how to load letterhead, see: – “Loading the standard or optional 250-sheet or 550-sheet tray” on page 72 – “Loading the 2000-sheet tray” on page 75 – “Loading the multipurpose feeder” on page 79 Tips on using transparencies Print samples on the transparencies being considered for use before buying large quantities.
– Have bent corners – Have rough, cockle, or laid finishes • Adjust the width guide to fit the width of the envelopes. Note: A combination of high humidity (over 60%) and the high printing temperature may wrinkle or seal envelopes. Tips on using labels Print samples on the labels being considered for use before buying large quantities. Notes: • Paper, dual-web paper, polyester, and vinyl labels are supported.
• Be aware that preprinting, perforation, and creasing may significantly affect the print quality and cause jams or other paper handling problems. • Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure the card stock can withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without releasing hazardous emissions. • Do not use preprinted card stock manufactured with chemicals that may contaminate the printer.
