1 Printer overview The following illustrations show a Lexmark™ C910 standard model configuration and a fully configured network printer. If you have attached paper handling options to your printer, it may look more like the fully configured model. For information on other possible configurations, refer to the Setup Guide.
The printer also offers flexible paper handling. It supports a wide variety of paper sizes, from A5 to A3 and 11x17 in., and has a standard multipurpose feeder that makes it easy to print on envelopes, transparencies, labels, card stock, and non-standard size paper. You can add up to three optional drawers to the base printer, which can increase the printer's paper capacity to 2300 sheets. You can also add an optional high capacity feeder making the total paper capacity 5300 sheets.
2 Avoiding print quality problems To prevent print quality problems, do not touch the roller on the bottom of the toner cartridge, the shiny green tube on the photodeveloper, the film on the transfer belt, or the fuser rollers. Scratches or fingerprints on any of these surfaces can affect print quality. Media and supplies Always use media that meets the recommended guidelines. Refer to the Card Stock & Label Guide for more information.
3 Canceling a print job To cancel a print job: 1 Press Menu. Job Menu appears on the first line of the display and Cancel Job appears on the second line. 2 Press Select. Canceling Job briefly appears on the display. The printer finishes printing any page already being printed, and then stops. The printer returns to the Ready state.
4 Controlling printed output Your printer driver provides you with the best quality output for various types of printing needs. However, you may want more control over how your printed document will look. Your printer default is set to give you the best screen frequency setting for high quality business graphics. You can however control the image smoothing, color correction, print mode, and toner darkness settings used during printing. Adjusting any of these settings affects the output of your documents.
Toner darkness This setting lets you adjust the amount of toner released during printing. Your printer offers five Toner Darkness settings. The values range from 1 (lightest setting) to 5 (darkest setting). The default toner darkness setting is 4. Printing text In both PostScript and PCL emulations, 100% black text prints using black toner (K of CMYK). This results in sharp, crisp text characters. The printer applies a unique screening algorithm to small text (less than 24 points in size).
Screen frequency The screen frequency is the number of halftone cells per inch. A higher screen frequency setting increases the number of halftone cells per inch. Increasing the number of halftone cells per inch does not necessarily give you better quality. The reason for this is the higher settings may make the colors or halftones seem to run together or bleed.
5 Using the operator panel This section contains information about understanding the operator panel, changing printer settings, and understanding operator panel menus. You can change most printer settings from your software application or printer driver. Settings you change from the application or printer driver apply only to the job you are preparing to send to the printer. Changes made to printer settings from a software application override changes made from the operator panel.
Using the operator panel buttons Use the five operator panel buttons to open a menu, scroll through a list of values, change printer settings, and respond to printer messages. The numbers 1 through 6 appear beside the operator panel buttons; these numbers are used to enter personal identification numbers (PIN) for Print and Hold jobs. For more information, see Using the Print and Hold function. The following information describes the functions of each button.
You can modify printer settings by: • Selecting a setting from a list of values • Changing an On/Off setting • Changing a numerical setting To select a new value as a setting: 1 From a Ready status message, press Menu. The menu names appear. 2 Continue to press and release Menu until you see the menu you need. 3 Press Select to select the menu or menu item displayed on the second line of the display. – – If the selection is a menu, the menu opens and the first printer setting in the menu appears.
4 Verify that the options you installed are correctly listed under “Installed Features.” If an option you installed is not listed, turn the printer off, unplug the power cord, and reinstall the option. Note: To prevent an electrical overload, plug your printer into a well-grounded outlet on a non-ground fault interrupter (GFI) circuit. 5 Verify the amount of memory installed is correctly listed under “Printer Information.
6 Using the Print and Hold function When sending a job to the printer, you can specify in the driver that you want the printer to hold the job in memory. When you are ready to print the job, you must go to the printer and use the operator panel menus to identify which held job you want to print.
Accessing held jobs from the operator panel 1 To access held jobs from the operator panel: – – If the printer is Busy, press Menu and the Job Menu appears. If the printer is Ready, continue to step 2. 2 Press Menu until you see Held Jobs or Confidential Job on the operator panel display, depending on the type of job you want to access. 3 Press Select. Note: If you are looking for a Confidential Job, you are prompted to enter your PIN. See Confidential jobs for more information.
Repeat Print If you send a Repeat Print job, the printer prints all requested copies of the job and stores the job in memory so you can print additional copies later. You can print additional copies as long as the job remains stored in memory. Note: Repeat Print jobs are automatically deleted from printer memory when the printer requires extra memory to process additional held jobs.
Confidential jobs When you send a job to the printer, you can enter a personal identification number (PIN) from the driver. The PIN must be four digits using the numbers 1–6. The job is then held in printer memory until you enter the same four-digit PIN from the operator panel and choose to print or delete the job. This ensures that the job does not print until you are there to retrieve it, and no one else using the printer can print the job.
7 Sending a job to print To send a job to the printer: 1 Open the file you want to print. 2 From the File menu, choose Print. 3 Verify that the correct printer is selected in the dialog box. 4 Adjust the printer settings according to your need. The printer settings available are determined by the application that opens your file. Note: Click Properties or Setup to adjust printer settings not available from the first screen, and then click OK. 5 Click OK or Print to send the job to the selected printer.
8 Color correction Color Correction lets you modify the color settings used to print your documents. The Color Correction settings you can choose from are: Auto, Display, CMYK, Off, Vivid, and Manual. Auto is the default setting when the printer is shipped from the factory. It uses different color profiles for the different objects on the page (text, graphics, and images). You can use these settings to adjust your printed color to better match the colors of other output devices or standard color systems.
If you use this setting without the necessary color management software or your application does not provide the correct information, your printed output may have unexpected results. Off When you select Off as your color correction, the printer expects to receive the necessary color correction from your software. Use this setting when you have software that manages its own color correction or if you use another color management tool.
9 Managing color There are many color management systems on the market today. They range from simple swatchbooks to specially designed and designated color servers. A color management system (CMS) helps you match colors across a number of devices, including scanners, monitors, and printers. A CMS ensures what you see at every step of the publishing process matches the printed output.
Popular color management systems There are many color management systems for you to choose from. The type of CMS you choose impacts the color quality of your printed output. Choose a CMS that best meets your cost and performance needs. Some popular color management systems are described here. Windows ICM Microsoft Windows 95/98/Me, Windows 2000, and Windows NT support Image Color Management (ICM). ICM is an operating system-level CMS based on the CIE independent color model.
10 Understanding color Your printer gives you the power to communicate in color. Color attracts attention, commands respect, and adds value to your printed material or information. Using color increases readership and is read more often than the same material printed in black and white. Color can be used to motivate people and speed the analysis of complex data. When you print on-demand color, you save money.
Primary colors Notice the three primary additive colors red, green, and blue in the illustration. You can see that when all three colors are combined, you get white. However, look at the area where any two colors overlap. What you see is cyan, magenta, or yellow. Equal amounts of green and blue produce cyan. Equal amounts of blue and red produce magenta, and equal amounts of red and green produce yellow. The toner colors used to place color on your printed material are cyan, magenta, yellow, and black.
Color difference Most software applications today provide us with a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) environment. This helps us develop the look of our document. However, the difference between the additive and subtractive colors may sometimes cause a problem between what you see and what you get. This is due to the difference between additive and subtractive colors. The reason for this lies in the color spectrum of the different devices. Your printer is capable of delivering over 16 million colors.
As your monitor ages, the colors on the screen also change. Changing the toner cartridges, photodeveloper cartridge, and paper in your printer also has a major impact on the color in your printed document. Always print a new swatch of the colors you plan on using before you invest a lot of time creating your screen designs.
11 Choosing media The print quality and feed reliability of your printer and options can vary with the type and size of print media you use. This section provides guidelines for each type of print media. For information on card stock and labels, refer to the Card Stock & Label Guide located on the Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com. Always print samples on the print media you are considering before buying large quantities.
Smoothness The degree of smoothness of paper directly affects print quality. If the paper is too rough, the toner does not fuse to the paper properly, resulting in poor print quality. If the paper is too smooth, it can cause paper feeding problems. Moisture content The amount of moisture in the paper affects both print quality and the ability of the printer to feed the paper properly. Leave the paper in its original wrapper until you are ready to use it.
Unsatisfactory paper The following papers are not recommended for use with the printer: • Chemically treated papers used to make copies without carbon paper, also known as carbonless papers, carbonless copy paper (CCP), or no carbon required (NCR) paper • Coated papers (erasable bond) • Multiple-part forms or documents • Preprinted papers that require a registration (the precise print location on the page) greater than ±0.09 in.
To help avoid jams or poor print quality: • Always use new, undamaged paper. • Before loading paper, know the recommended print side of the paper you’re using. This information is usually indicated on the paper package. • Do not use paper that you have cut or trimmed yourself. • Do not mix paper sizes, weights, or types in the same paper source; mixing results in jams. • Do not use coated papers. • Do not remove trays while a job is printing or Busy is displayed on the operator panel.
For best performance, use envelopes made from 75 g/m2 (20 lb bond) paper. You can use up to 105 g/ m2 (28 lb bond) weight for the multipurpose feeder as long as the cotton content is 25% or less. Envelopes with 100% cotton content must not exceed 90 g/m2 (24 lb bond) weight.
When printing on card stock: • Be sure to select Card Stock in the Paper Type menu item in the Paper Menu. (See Paper Type for detailed information about these settings.) • Be aware that preprinting, perforation, and creasing can significantly affect the print quality and cause paper handling or jamming problems. • Avoid using card stock that may release hazardous emissions when heated. For more information, refer to the Card Stock & Label Guide, available on the Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com.
12 Loading media This section provides information about loading media in the input options. Proper paper loading helps prevent paper jams and ensure trouble-free printing. Before loading paper, find the recommended print side of the paper you’re using. This information is usually indicated on the paper package.
13 Loading the high capacity feeder You can attach an optional high capacity feeder to your printer. This can provide an additional input of 3,000 sheets of paper. Note: Do not load any print media other than paper in the high capacity feeder. The high capacity feeder must be properly adjusted for A4 or Letter size paper. If the paper guides are in the wrong position, you may experience paper feeding problems. To load the high capacity feeder: 1 Open the top cover as shown.
3 Loosen the left and right paper guide thumbscrews. 4 Slide the guides left or right to the correct position for the size paper you are loading (A4 or Letter). 5 Tighten the left and right paper guide thumbscrews.
6 Flex the sheets back and forth to loosen them, and then fan them. Do not fold or crease the paper. Straighten the edges of the stack on a level surface. Note: Do not exceed the maximum stack height. Overfilling the tray may cause jams. 7 Place the paper against the paper guides with the print side up.
8 Press the paper tray button The paper tray lowers to let you load up another 500 sheets of paper. Note: If there is only a partial stack of paper in the tray, the paper low sensor will not allow the tray to go down. Add more paper to lower the tray. 9 Place the paper against the paper guides with the print side up. 10 Repeat step 8 and step 9 until you have filled the tray or loaded the desired quantity. 11 Close the top cover. Make sure the high capacity feeder is pushed completely against the printer.
14 Loading the multipurpose feeder The multipurpose feeder can hold several sizes and types of paper, such as transparencies and envelopes. It is useful for single page printing on letterhead, colored paper, or other special paper. Refer to the Card Stock & Label Guide for more information on paper types and sizes. You can use the multipurpose feeder one of two ways: • Paper tray—Load paper or other print media in the feeder with the intention of leaving the media in the feeder.
Trouble-free printing • Load only one size of paper or envelopes at a time in the multipurpose feeder. • To achieve the best possible print quality, use only high-quality print media that is designed for use in laser printers. For more guidelines on paper, see Choosing media. • To prevent paper jams, do not add or remove paper when there is still paper in the multipurpose feeder. This applies to other types of print media, too.
2 Slide the paper width guides to the correct position for the size paper you are loading. 3 Push down the bottom plate until it locks into place.
4 Prepare the print media for loading. – Flex paper or fan envelopes back and forth. Do not fold or crease the paper. Straighten the edges on a level surface. – Hold transparencies by the edges and avoid touching the print side. Fan the stack of transparencies to prevent jams. Be careful not to scratch or leave fingerprints on the transparencies. 5 Load one type of print media in the multipurpose feeder. Do not mix types.

Do not bend the print media. 8 Push the SET button to the left to unlock the bottom plate.
9 Select the paper source, size, and type from your software application and select paper size and type from the operator panel. a Make sure the Paper Size and Paper Type for the multipurpose feeder (MP Feeder Size and MP Feeder Type) are set to the correct value for the print media you are loading. (See Paper Size and Paper Type for detailed information about these settings.) b Press Go to return to Ready. Note: Software settings may override operator panel settings.
4 Close the multipurpose feeder door.
15 Output bins Your printer has two output bins: the standard output bin on top of the printer and an exit tray (bin 1). Your printer directs all media except transparencies and envelopes to the standard output bin. Transparencies are automatically directed to the exit tray (bin 1) to reduce curling. Note: Make sure the exit tray is down when printing transparencies or envelopes.
16 Loading a paper tray The printer lets you know when you need to load paper. If a tray has less than 50 sheets of paper, Tray x Low appears on the display, where x corresponds to a paper tray. Open the tray and load paper to remove the message. When you change the paper in the tray, make sure the paper guides are in the correct positions. The position of the left paper guide informs the printer of the size paper loaded in the tray.
2 Press the metal plate down until it locks. 3 Squeeze the left guide and slide it to the position for the size paper you are loading. 4 Release the paper guide. Note: The position of the left paper guide tells the printer the size of the paper in the tray. If the left paper guide is in the wrong position, you may experience paper feeding problems or incorrect page formatting.
5 Flex the sheets back and forth to loosen them, and then fan them. Do not fold or crease the paper. Straighten the edges of the stack on a level surface. 6 Place the paper in the tray, print side down. Note: Do not exceed the maximum stack height. Overfilling the tray may cause jams.
7 Squeeze the front paper guide lever and slide the guide until it lightly touches the stack of paper. 8 Rotate the paper size dial until the size of the paper in the tray is indicated. Note: This setting serves as a visual reminder only; it has no effect on the operation of the printer.
9 Push the tray in. Loading letterhead See Loading the multipurpose feeder for instructions on loading letterhead in the multipurpose feeder. Follow the steps in Loading paper, card stock, or labels to load transparencies in the tray. Loading transparencies See Loading the multipurpose feeder for instructions on loading transparencies in the multipurpose feeder.
17 Using the heavy media tray The optional heavy media tray replaces tray 1. For instructions on removing and installing tray 1, see Exchanging tray 1. The heavy media tray is specially designed for use with heavier plain paper, glossy paper, transparencies, labels, and card stock. Note: Using the heavy media tray with light paper such as 16–26 lb plain paper may cause jams. When the heavy media tray is installed, it turns the auto size sensing off.
7 Press Menu until you see Custom Type 1, and then press Select. 8 Press Menu until you see the type of media you loaded in the heavy media tray, and then press Select. 9 Press Go. The printer returns to the Ready state. Exchanging tray 1 1 Pull tray 1 out until it stops. 2 Lift the front of tray 1 and pull the tray forward.

Slide stop Tray stop 8 Lower the front of the tray and slide it in. 9 Move the tray in and out to make sure it functions properly.
18 Media guidelines Use recommended media (paper, transparencies, envelopes, card stock and labels) for your printer to avoid printing problems. For detailed information about media characteristics, refer to the Card Stock & Label Guide located on the Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com. Brief guidelines for choosing paper and other media follow.
The following table lists recommended media, weights, and the stack height guide to use when loading the paper trays.
The following are not recommended for your printer: • • • • • • • • • • • • Paper with a large cotton content Paper with a rough or heavily textured surface Coated papers, such as erasable bond Preprinted papers manufactured with chemicals that may contaminate the printer Paper designed for inkjet printers Deformed or damaged paper Paper that is wet or has absorbed moisture Paper that is punched, embossed, or perforated Multiple-part forms Synthetic papers Thermal papers Recycled paper having a weight les
When printing on envelopes: • Try a sample of any envelopes before buying large quantities. • Use envelopes made from 90 to 105 g/m2 (24 to 28 lb) bond paper.
Card stock Note: Load card stock in the multipurpose feeder and heavy media tray only. Do not load more than 50 sheets of card stock into the multipurpose feeder. Loading more than 50 sheets of card stock or using the wrong paper source may cause paper jams or a failure to feed. You can load 250 sheets of card stock in the heavy media tray. The properties of the card stock you choose—such as the orientation of the paper fibers, moisture content, thickness, and texture—can affect the print quality.
19 Tray linking Tray linking enables the automatic linking feature for trays when you use the same size and type of print media in multiple paper sources (trays). For example, let’s say you have loaded two optional trays with the same size print media and both are set to the same paper type. When one tray becomes empty, the printer automatically selects print media from the other tray since the printer sees the trays as linked.
20 Tips for successful printing Storing paper Properly storing the media helps ensure trouble-free printing. Use the following guidelines: • For best results, store media in an environment where the temperature is approximately 21°C (70°F) and the relative humidity is 40%. • Store cartons of paper on a pallet or shelf, rather than directly on the floor. • If you store individual packages of paper out of the original carton, make sure they rest on a flat surface so the edges do not buckle or curl.
21 Determining supply status Print the menu settings page to check the status of printer supply items. See Printing the menu settings page for detailed instructions. One or two pages print depending on the number of menu settings you have. Look for “Supplies Menu” on the page; each item indicates the percentage of remaining life. You can also check the status of printer supply items using the operator panel. 1 Press Menu until you see Supplies Menu. 2 Press Select.

This timeout value also applies if the menus are displayed (and the printer is offline) for the specified period of time.
Jam Recovery Purpose: To establish whether the printer reprints jammed pages. Values: On Printer reprints jammed pages. Off Printer does not reprint jammed pages. Auto* Printer reprints a jammed page unless the memory required to hold the page is needed for other printer tasks. Job Accounting Purpose: To store statistical information about your most recent print jobs on the hard disk.
Job Acct Limit Purpose: To specify the number of print jobs for which statistics are maintained on your printer hard disk. Values: Disabled Stores statistics for each print job until the hard disk is full. 10...1000 (1000*) Stores statistics for the specified number of print jobs. If you set Job Acct Limit to 10, the statistics from the 10 most recent print jobs are stored on the hard disk.
Power Saver Purpose: To specify the amount of time (in minutes) the printer waits after a job is printed before it goes into a reduced power state. Values: Disabled Disables Power Saver. 1...240 Specifies the amount of time after a print job before the printer goes into Power Saver mode. (Your printer may not support the entire range of values.) The factory default Power Saver setting depends on your printer model. Print the menu settings page to determine the current Power Saver setting.
Printer Language Purpose: To establish the default printer language used to communicate data from the computer to the printer. Values: PCL Emulation PCL emulation, compatible with Hewlett-Packard printers. PS Emulation* PostScript emulation, compatible with Adobe PostScript language. Note: Setting a printer language as the default does not prevent a software application from sending print jobs that use the other language.
Wait Timeout Purpose: To specify the amount of time (in seconds) the printer waits to receive additional bytes of data from the computer. When this timeout expires, the print job is canceled. Values: Disabled Disables Wait Timeout. 15...65535 (40*) Specifies the amount of time the printer waits for additional data before it cancels the job. Note: Wait Timeout is only available when you use PostScript emulation. This menu item has no effect on PCL emulation print jobs.
