Types Before purchasing a large quantity of special media, do a trial printing with the same media and check the print quality. Keep media on a flat, level surface in its original wrapper until it is time to load it.
Layered Adhesive Folded, creased, curled, embossed, warped, or wrinkled Perforated, three-hole punched, or torn Too slick, too coarse, or too textured Different in texture (roughness) on the front and back Too thin or too thick Stuck together with static electricity Composed of foil or gilt; too luminous Heat sensitive or cannot withstand the fusing temperature (180°C [356°F]) Irregularly shaped (not rectangular or not cut at right angles) Attached with glue, tape, paper clips, stap
Label A sheet of labels 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. You can print continuously with label sheets. However, this could affect the media feed, depending on the media quality and printing environment. If problems occur, stop the continuous printing and print one sheet at a time.
Letterhead You can print continuously with letterhead. However, this could affect the media feed, depending on the media quality and printing environment. If problems occur, stop the continuous printing and print one sheet at a time. Try printing your data on a sheet of plain paper first to check placement. Capacity Tray 1 Up to 50 sheets, depending on their size and thickness Orientation Face up Driver Letterhead Media Type Postcard You can print continuously with postcard.
Folded or wrinkled Printable Area The printable area on all media sizes is up to 4.0 mm (0.157") from the edges of the media. Each media size has a specific printable area (the maximum area on which the machine can print clearly and without distortion). a a a Printable Area This area is subject to both hardware a limits (the physical media size and the margins required by the machine) and a=4.0 mm (0.157") software constraints (the amount of memory available for the full-page frame buffer).
Loading Media How do I load media? Take off the top and bottom sheets of a ream of paper. Holding a stack of approximately 200 sheets at a time, fan the stack to prevent static buildup before inserting it in a tray. Note Although this printer was designed for printing on a wide range of media types, it is not intended to print exclusively on a single media type except plain paper.
2 3 Slide the media guides to provide more space between them. Load the paper face up in the tray. " Do not load paper above the mark. Up to 200 sheets (80 g/m2 [21 lb]) of plain paper can be loaded into the tray at one time.
4 Slide the media guides against the edges of the paper. Other Media When loading media other than plain paper, set the media mode (Labels, Letterhead, Postcard, Thick Stock 1, or Thick Stock 2) in the driver for optimum print quality. Loading Label Sheets/Letterheads/Postcards/Thick Stock 1 Open Tray 1. " 4-10 If media has been loaded into Tray 1, remove all media from the tray.
2 3 Slide the media guides to provide more space between them. Load the media face up in the tray. " 4 Up to 50 sheets can be loaded into the tray at one time. Slide the media guides against the edges of the media.
Output Tray All media is fed out facing down into the output tray on top of the printer. This tray has a capacity of approximately 100 sheets (A4/Letter) of 80 g/m2 (21 lb) paper. " If the media is stacked too high in the output tray, your printer may experience media misfeeds, excessive media curl, or static buildup. Media Storage Keep media on a flat, level surface in its original wrapper until it is time to load it.
Replacing Consumables
Replacing Consumables Note Failure to follow instructions as outlined in this manual could result in voiding your warranty. About Toner Cartridges Your printer uses four toner cartridges: black, yellow, magenta, and cyan. Handle the toner cartridges carefully to avoid spilling toner inside the printer or on yourself. " " Install only new toner cartridges in your printer. If a used toner cartridge is installed, then toner remaining amount may not be accurate. The toner is nontoxic.
Keep toner cartridges: In their packaging until you’re ready to install them. In a cool, dry location away from sunlight (due to heat). The maximum storage temperature is 35° C (95° F) and the maximum storage humidity is 85% (noncondensing). If the toner cartridge is moved from a cold place to a warm, humid place, condensation may occur, degrading print quality. Allow the toner to adapt to the environment for about one hour before use. Level during handling and storage.
Replacing a Toner Cartridge Note Be careful not to spill toner while replacing a toner cartridge. If toner spills, immediately wipe it off with a soft, dry cloth. When the toner is empty, the toner indicator lights up. Follow the procedure described below to replace the toner cartridge. 1 Check the control panel to see which color of toner is empty.

Troubleshooting
Introduction This chapter provides information to aid you in resolving printer problems you may encounter, or at least guide you to the proper sources for help.
Preventing Media Misfeeds Make sure that... Media matches the printer specifications. Media is flat, especially on the leading edge. The printer is on a hard, flat, level surface. You store media in a dry location away from moisture and humidity. You always adjust the media guides in Tray 1 after inserting the media (a guide that is not properly adjusted can cause poor print quality, media misfeeds, and printer damage).
Understanding the Media Path Understanding the printer’s media path will help you locate media misfeeds.
Indicator Messages The indicators on the control panel provide information about your printer and help you locate each problem. Status Messages Status messages indicate the current condition of the printer. The printer status also can be checked on the Remote Panel Utility. (Refer to “Working with the Remote Panel Utility” on page 3-2.

After a few seconds, turn on the printer. If the problem persists, contact your vendor or authorized service provider.
Clearing Media Misfeeds To avoid damage, always remove misfed media gently, without tearing it. Any pieces of media left in the printer, whether large or small, can obstruct the media path and cause further misfeeds. Do not reload media that has misfed. Note The image is not fixed on the media before the fusing process. If you touch the printed surface, the toner may stick to your hands, so be careful not to touch the print face when removing the misfed media.
Clearing Procedures 1 Open the top cover. " 2 If there is paper in the output tray, remove it, and then fold up the output tray before opening the top cover. Grab the handle and lift it up slightly to the back, and then slowly pull the imaging cartridge out vertically.
Note Do not touch the PC drum on the imaging cartridge. Position the removed imaging cartridge horizontally as shows in the illustration at the right. Be sure to keep the imaging cartridge horizontal and place it where it will not become dirty. Do not leave the imaging cartridge removed for more than 15 minutes, and do not place the removed imaging cartridge in a location where it would be exposed to direct light (such as sunlight).
3 Push the fuser separator levers back as far as possible. M CAUTION The area around the fuser unit is extremely hot. Touching anything other than the indicated levers may result in burns. If you get burned, immediately cool the skin under cold water, and then seek professional medical attention.
4 Remove any misfed media. M " Raise the fuser unit cover and remove the media.
Note Do not touch the paper exit sensor on the fuser unit. M Note Decreased print quality may result if the surface of the transfer roller is touched. Be careful not to touch the surface of the transfer roller.
5 Return the fuser separator levers to their original positions. M 6 7-16 Slowly insert the imaging cartridge vertically, and then push it slightly down toward you to finish reinstalling the imaging cartridge.
7 Carefully close the top cover.
Solving Problems with Media Misfeeds " Frequent misfeeds in any area indicate that area should be checked, repaired, or cleaned.
