Paper Recommendations Your MFP will handle a variety of print media, including a range of paper weights and sizes, transparencies and envelopes. This section provides general advice on choice of media, and explains how to use each type. Standard Paper: The best performance will be obtained when using standard 60 to 120 g/m² paper designed for use in copiers and laser printers. Not Recommended: Use of heavily embossed or very rough textured paper is not recommended.
Multi Purpose Tray The multi purpose tray can handle the same media sizes as the cassette trays but in weights from 60g/m² up to 163g/m². For very heavy paper stock, use the face up (rear cover) paper stacker. This ensures that the paper path through the MFP is almost straight. Use the multi purpose tray for printing on envelopes and transparencies.
Envelopes Caution! Envelopes should be free from twist, curl or other deformations. They should also be of the rectangular flap type, with glue that remains intact when subjected to hot roll pressure fusing used in this type of printer. Window envelopes are not suitable. Transparencies Caution! Do not use transparencies designed for use in color laser printers and photocopiers. Recommended type is CG3300 by 3M (A4 or Letter size). Labels Caution! Labels should cover entire carrier sheet.
Loading Paper Cassette Trays 1. Remove the paper tray from the MFP.
2. Adjust the rear stopper (3) and paper guides (4) to the size of paper being used. For loading A4 or Legal size paper, push the lever in the arrow direction (b) and extend the paper tray using the rear paper stopper. 3. Fan the paper to be loaded at the edges (1) and in the middle (2) to ensure that all sheets are properly separated, then tap the edges of the stack on a flat surface to make it flush again (3).
4. Load paper short edge feed (SEF) (1) (for letterhead paper load face down with top edge towards the front of the paper tray) up to mark (a). The paper level indicator (2) provides a visual indication of how much paper is left in the tray.
5. If required, set the correct media type in the Printer menu. . Note To prevent paper jams: • Do not leave space between the paper and the guides and rear stopper. • Do not overfill the paper tray. Capacity depends on the type of paper stock. • Do not use damaged paper. • Do not load paper of different sizes or types at the same time. • Close the paper tray gently.
6. Replace the tray in the MFP. Loading Paper: Manual Feed Tray (MFX-3070) 1. Open the manual feed tray (1). 2. Press gently down on the paper platform (2) to ensure it is latched down.
3. Adjust the paper guides (3) to the size of paper being used. 4. Load a sheet of paper in the manual feeder, then press inwards to release the paper platform, so that the paper is lifted and gripped in place. • For single-sided printing on letterhead stationery, load the paper into the tray with the pre-printed side up and the top edge into the MFP.
• For two-sided (duplex) printing on letterhead stationery, load the paper with the pre-printed side down and the top edge away from the MFP. • Envelopes should be loaded face up with the top edge to the left and the short edge into the MFP. Do not select duplex printing on envelopes. • Load transparencies face up and top edge into the MFP. 5. Set the correct paper size for the manual tray in the Printer menu. Loading Paper: Multi Purpose Tray (MFX3090) 1. Open the multi purpose tray (1).
3. Adjust the paper guides (3) to the size of paper being used. Do not exceed the paper capacity of about 50 sheets or 10 envelopes. Maximum stacking depth is 10 mm (about 3/8-ionch). 4. Press the tray latch button (4) inwards to release the paper platform, so that the paper is lifted and gripped in place.
• For single-sided printing on headed paper load the paper into the multi purpose tray with pre-printed side up and top edge into the MFP. • For two-sided (duplex) printing on headed paper load the paper with preprinted side down and the top edge away from the MFP. • Envelopes should be loaded face up with top edge to the left and short edge into the MFP. Do not select duplex printing on envelopes. • Load transparencies face up and top edge into the MFP. 5.

Printer setup options Printer options MFX-3070 MFX-3090 Density Select the density from Lightest (-2) to Darkest (+2) depending on the quality of the original document. Weight Select the thickness or type of paper in the printer. It is important to set this correctly as it affects the temperature at which the toner is fused to the paper. For example, if you are printing on normal A4 paper, do not select Labels or Transparency as this may cause toner smearing and paper jam.
Feed manually from Multi-purpose tray (MFX-3090) Select this option if you want the printer to wait until you press the START button when feeding from the Multi-purpose Tray. This can be useful if printing envelopes. Print control If you are using the Windows Print Control Server software to manage printers, enter your assigned user name and ID. This information is sent to the printer with your print job and is recorded by the printer.

Printer Features Paper input options Paper size check Select Paper Size check if you want the printer to warn you when the document paper size is different from the paper in the printer.
Job options Quality Use this option to select the print resolution; 600 x 600dpi (normal printing), 1200 x 1200 (choose this for high quality print). The high quality print resolution requires a larger amount of disk space and takes longer to print. Toner saving Uses less toner when printing your document. This is best suited to draft text documents as it lightens the print significantly.

Troubleshooting Clearing paper jams Provided that you follow the recommendations in this guide on use of print media, and you keep the media in good condition prior to use, your MFP should give years of reliable service. However, paper jams occasionally do occur, and this section explains how to clear them quickly and simply. Jams can occur due to paper misfeeding from a paper tray or at any point on the paper path through the printer or scanner ADF. When a jam occurs, the MFP immediately stops.
b. Remove any paper from ADF mechanism. 4. Lower the ADF cover. 5. Press the Stop button to restore the scanning head to the correct position. In the printer section... 1. Lift the scanner.

Fax problem checklist (MFX-3090) If a problem occurs, read through the list of problems and solutions before calling for service. The MFP will not dial a telephone number. Check the power cable and wall outlet. Make sure that the telephone line (not external telephone or handset) is connected to the LINE socket on the back of the machine. If an external telephone is installed, lift the handset and check for a dial tone. If there is no dial tone, there may be a problem with the telephone line.
Image of received fax is very poor. Try making a copy of a document on the local machine to make sure it is working properly. If there is still a problem, contact the person sending the fax and ask them to change their fax quality and density settings. Ask the person to make a copy of the document on their machine to ensure that it is working properly. Then ask them to send the fax again.
