Using Media 2
Introduction This chapter provides information on handling, selecting, and storing media. Refer to the Maintenance Guide for media specifications. Media Handling Before purchasing a large quantity of special media, do a trial printing with the same media and check print quality. Check our web site www.minolta-qms.com for a list of current approved media. Attention Do not use the media types listed below. These could cause poor print quality, media jams, or damage to the printer.
Media Types Plain Paper Formatting Format data within your application. Input Upper and Optional Trays 500 sheets of 20 lb bond (75 g/m²) paper (letter/ A4/legal) each; capacity for other weights varies accordingly. Multipurpose 150 sheets of 20 lb bond (75 g/m²) paper; capacity Tray for other weights varies accordingly.
Type Any standard or recycled office paper suitable for plain-paper laser printers, such as „ Hammermill Laser Print „ Georgia-Pacific Microprint Laser 1000 „ Neusiedler Color Copy 90 „ Xerox 4024 Weight 16–24 lb bond (60–90 g/m²) Duplexing Upper and Optional Trays Face down—top of page toward the right Multipurpose Face up—top of page toward the printer side Tray Notes Check your application documentation for other information about printing on letterhead and memo media.
Envelopes Formatting Your printer receives the instructions to print on envelopes from your application. „ Print on the front 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. „ See your application documentation for specific information on printing envelopes.
Notes „ Avoid using labels with exposed adhesive; it may stick to the transfer belt or the fuser roller, causing labels to peel off and media jams to occur. „ Adhesive label stock is supported only in letter or A4 sheets. „ A label 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.
Input Location Upper and Optional Trays Multipurpose tray Capacity Up to 50 sheets, depending on the thickness of the transparencies If you have problems feeding 50 sheets, try loading only 5–10 sheets at a time. Loading a large number of transparencies at a time may cause static buildup, thus causing feeding problems. Orientation Upper and Optional Trays Face up Multipurpose Face down Tray Type Use any full-color transparencies (also known as OHP film) that meet normal photocopier standards.
Loading Media Take off the top and bottom sheets of a ream of paper. Holding a stack of approximately 250 sheets at a time, fan the stack to prevent static buildup for the paper before inserting it in a tray. 5" OHP Do not fan transparency media. Attention Always load the media short edge first. Attention Do not mix media of different sizes, types, or weights, as this will cause printer jamming. „ When refilling media, first remove any media remaining in the tray.
If you are printing duplex from the upper or optional tray, load the media printing-side down with the top of the media (or letterhead or memo information) toward the right side of the tray. If you are printing duplex from the multipurpose tray, load the media printing-side up with the top of the media toward the printer. 5" The options in the driver are Simplex (1-sided pages), or Long Edge (flipped horizontally as in a loose-leaf notebook), or Short Edge (flipped vertically as on a clipboard).
3 Adjust the media guides to fit the size paper you’re loading. Squeeze the retainers, move the guides to the appropriate location (media sizes are listed on the tray), and release the retainers. The media should fit easily between the guides. 4 Load the paper face-up, short edge toward the right of the tray. Often, an arrow on the media package label indicates the printing-side of the media. Do not overfill the tray. A fill limit mark is provided on the inside of the tray.
Make sure that the paper fits easily between the guides and the paper corners are under the left and right media-separating tabs and are not bent. Attention Always readjust the media guides after inserting the media. Improperly adjusted guides may cause poor print quality, media jams, or printer damage. 5 Slide the tray back into the printer. 5" If you have removed the tray from the printer, slightly tilt up the tray to insert it into the installation rails to slide it back in.
1 2 Open the multipurpose tray on the right side of the printer. Open the media support. Attention Load only one type/size of media per tray at a time. Load the media face down, short edge toward the printer.
Often, an arrow on the paper package label indicates the face-up (printing) side of the paper. A fill limit mark is provided on the inside of the media guides on the multipurpose tray. The multipurpose tray holds 150 sheets of 20 lb bond (75 g/m²) paper. 4 Adjust the media guides to fit the size media you’re loading. LTR LG . EXE. L. A5 B5 A4 Attention Always adjust the media guides after inserting the media.
4 Place the envelope stack into the multipurpose tray with the flap-side up. Check your application documentation to determine if the flap should be placed on the left or on the right. Print a single envelope to check the orientation before printing multiple copies. 5 Adjust the media guides to the width of the envelopes. Make sure the guides are snug enough to keep the envelopes straight, but not so tight that they buckle the envelopes.
Maintaining the Printer 3
Maintaining the Printer Handle the printer with care to preserve its life. Abuse may cause damage and void your warranty. If dust and paper scraps remain on the inside or outside of the printer, printer performance and print quality will suffer, so the printer should be cleaned periodically.
