EMERGENCY FIRST AID Take care with toner powder: If swallowed, give small amounts of cold water and seek medical attention. DO NOT attempt to induce vomiting. If inhaled, move the person to an open area for fresh air. Seek medical attention. If it gets into the eyes, flush with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes keeping eyelids open. Seek medical attention. Spillages should be treated with cold water and soap to help reduce risk of staining skin or clothing.

INTRODUCTION B2200/B2400 desktop printers offer a crisp, high quality, fast printing solution in a lightweight and compact unit that can be conveniently located right at the point of need.
PARTS IDENTIFICATION 1 2 3 4 5 6 5 7 8 1 Paper support. 2 Paper tray (below cover) and output tray (above cover). 3 Top cover. 4 Power on/off button. 5 Manual feed guides. 6 Top cover release button. 7 On-Line button—switches printer on line or off line. To clear a current print job from printer memory, press and hold this button for about 5 seconds. 8 Status lights: > Power On—lights when power is switched on.
PRINT MEDIA Print media that can be used with your printer includes standard copier bond paper, certain types of envelope and certain types of transparency. PAPER The best type of paper to choose is standard 80-90g/m² bond paper designed for use in plain paper copiers and laser type printers. Pre-printed stationery, such as letterhead paper can also be used as long as the pre-printed parts can withstand a combination of heat and pressure.
The paper tray can hold up to about 150 sheets of standard bond paper. The manual feeder takes just one sheet at a time. Take just enough paper from its wrapping, fan the stack to ensure all sheets are separated from each other, then tap the stack flush again before loading. Load pre-printed stationery top edge first and face down into the paper tray or face up into the manual feeder. If plain paper seems to curl excessively during the print process, try turning the stack over in the input tray.
5. Slide the paper stack fully into the tray as far as it will go, print side downwards, top edge into the printer, and ensure the guides just touch each side of the stack. 6. Close the tray cover. LOADING PAPER IN THE MANUAL FEEDER 1. In your computer’s Print dialogue, click the printer [Properties] button to display the Printing Preferences dialogue. 2.
5. Load the sheet to be printed, top edge first, print side up, into the feeder and push it gently until you feel slight resistance. The printer will advance the paper a short distance and retain it and the Load Paper light will stop flashing. When the page image has been processed the paper will be drawn into the printer and your printed page will be ejected into the output tray. NOTE Pages are ejected face up.
ENVELOPES Envelopes can be directly printed in this printer as long as you choose suitable types. Avoid self sealing envelopes and those with windows or metal clasps. Preferably choose envelopes with rectangular flaps rather than triangular flaps. LOADING ENVELOPES IN THE MANUAL FEEDER 1. When creating your address document, format it to the size of the envelope, remembering to set it to landscape (wide) format for most envelopes. (Standard DL size envelopes are 22cm wide by 11cm tall.) 2.
6. Load the envelope, short edge first, print side up, flap folded under and to the left, into the feeder and push it gently until you feel slight resistance. The printer will advance the envelope a short distance and retain it. The sheet will be drawn into the printer and the printed page will eject normally into the output tray. PRINT QUALITY ADJUSTMENTS For most printing on standard bond paper the default (medium) setting for paper thickness is appropriate.
CLEARING PAPER JAMS Occasionally it may be necessary to clear a sheet of paper that has become jammed inside the printer. When this happens the printer will stop immediately and the Error light will flash. After the jam has been cleared and the top cover closed, the printer will automatically reprint the lost page WARNING! If the printer has been printing for a while the fuser unit will be hot. This unit is clearly marked with a yellow warning label. Do not touch it! 1.
2. If the paper was fed from the tray, pull the sheet as illustrated below. 3. If the paper was feed from the manual feeder, pull the sheet as follows. 4. Carefully reinstall the print cartridge, pressing down firmly at both ends to ensure it is properly seated, and close the top cover. If the top cover will not close, the print cartridge is not properly installed. Remove it and refit correctly.
SETTING PRINTING PREFERENCES The Status Monitor for Windows provides access to many options and enables the printer default settings to be changed to meet your every day needs. The Windows printer driver also contains settings for many of these items. Where items in the printer driver are the same as those in the Status Monitor menus, and you print documents from Windows, the settings in the Windows printer driver will override the printer’s default settings.
SETUP TAB 1 2 3 4 5 6 1. Paper size should be the same as the page size of your document (unless you wish to scale the printout to fit another size), and should also be the same as the size of paper you will feed into the printer. 2. You can choose the source of the paper to feed, which may be the standard paper tray or manual feeder. You can also click on the appropriate part of the screen graphic to select your preferred tray. 3.
JOB OPTIONS TAB 3 4 1 5 2 6 1. Set the output resolution of the printed page to meet your needs. If selected, toner saving uses less toner at the expense of print quality. 2. Page orientation can be set to either portrait (tall) or landscape (wide). In landscape the page image is rotated 90 degrees to the left (e.g. for printing envelopes). 3. If Vector print mode is selected the internal printer fonts may be used.
IMAGE TAB 1 2 3 4 1. Dithering produces an intermediate greyscale by adjusting the combination of dots used in printing. Selecting a setting determines the degree of detail with which a graphics image will be printed. Mesh determines that a screen of dots is used for dithering while Line Art determines that an array of lines is used for dithering. 2. Select dithering texture by setting the size of dots used in the halftone screen. 3.
