3 Pull the paper tray out of the printer. Remove the packing tapes from the tray. 2 Selecting a Location Select a level, stable place with adequate space for air circulation. Allow extra space for opening covers and trays. The area should be well-ventilated and away from direct sunlight or sources of heat, cold, and humidity. Do not set the printer close to the edge of your desk or table. Clearance Space Front: 482.
Installing the Toner Cartridge 1 Open the top cover. Pull up on the handle to open the cover. 2 Remove the toner cartridge from its bag. Don’t use a knife or other sharp objects as they might scratch the drum of the cartridge. 3 Locate the sealing tape at the end of the toner cartridge. Carefully pull the tape completely out of the cartridge and discard it. NOTE: • The sealing tape should be longer than 550 mm when correctly removed.
4 Gently shake the cartridge from side to side to distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge. 2 CAUTIONS: • To prevent damage, do not expose the toner cartridge to light for more than a few minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper, if left exposed for more than a few minutes. • If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric. 5 Locate the cartridge slots inside the printer, one on each side.
7 Close the top cover. Make sure that the cover is securely closed. NOTE: When printing text at 5% coverage, you can expect a toner cartridge life of approximately 10,000 pages (5,000 pages for the toner cartridge that is shipped with the printer). Loading Paper You can load approximately 500 sheets of paper in the tray. 1 Pull the tray out of the printer. 2.
2 Prepare a stack of paper for loading by flexing or fanning them back and forth. Straighten the edges on a level surface. 2 3 Load paper with the print side facing down. You can load previously printed paper. The printed side should be facing up with an uncurled edge at the top side. If you experience problems with paper feed, turn the paper around. Make sure that all four corners are flat in the tray. SETTING UP YOUR PRINTER 2.
4 Pay attention to the paper limit mark on the left inside wall of the tray. Paper overloading may cause paper jams. NOTE: If you want to change the paper size in the tray, refer to “Changing the Paper Size in the Tray” below. 5 Slide the tray back into the printer. Changing the Paper Size in the Tray If you load long paper in the tray, you should adjust the paper guides to the paper length. 1 Push the back plate of the tray outwards completely so that it can extend the length of the tray. 2.
2 Squeeze the tab on the paper length guide and adjust it, so that it fits to the desired paper size marked at the bottom of the tray. 2 3 Squeeze the paper width guide and adjust it to the desired paper size marked at the bottom of the tray.

4 USING PRINT MATERIALS This chapter will help you understand types of paper you can use with your printer and how to properly load paper in the different paper trays for the best print quality.
Choosing Paper and Other Materials You can print on a variety of print materials, such as plain paper, envelopes, labels, transparencies and so on. See “Paper Specifications” on page G.3. To get the best possible print quality, use only high-quality copier-grade paper. When you choose print materials, consider the following: • Desired outcome: The paper you choose should be appropriate for the project. • Size: You can use any size paper that fits easily within the paper adjusters of the paper tray.
Sizes and Capacities Input Source/Capacity*a Size Tray1 or optional Tray2 MultiPurpose Tray Manual Feed 500 500 500 500 500 500 200 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 Plain Paper Letter (8.5 x 11 in.)

A4 (210 x 297 mm) - 50 50 1 1 Card stocks*b - 10 1 Bond*b - 10 1 No. 10 (4.
Guidelines for Paper and Special Materials When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special materials, keep these guidelines in mind: • Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause paper jams and poor print quality. • Use cut-sheet paper only. You cannot use multi-part paper. • Use only high-quality, copier grade paper for the best print quality. • Do not use paper that has been already printed on or that has been fed through a photocopier.
Selecting the Output Location The printer has two output locations; the rear output tray and the top output tray. Top output tray Rear output tray 4 To use the top output tray, be sure that the rear output tray is closed. To use the rear output tray, open it. NOTES: • If paper coming out of the top output tray has problems, such as excessive curl, try printing to the rear output tray. • To avoid paper jams, do not open or close the rear output tray while the printer is printing.
Printing to the Rear Output Tray (Face up) The printer always prints to the rear output tray if it is open. Paper comes out of the printer face-up, with the last page on top. Printing from the Multi-Purpose Tray to the rear output tray provides the straight paper path.
2 Pull the extender to extend the output tray to its full-length position to hold longer paper. 3 If you do not want to stack the printed pages on the rear output tray, slide the extender to its place and close the tray. The pages will stack on the top output tray. 4 NOTE: The rear output tray can hold up to 100 sheets of paper. If the tray is overloaded with printed pages, it may fall from the printer. Remove the pages so that the tray is not overloaded.
Using the Tray1 or the Optional Tray2 The Tray1 and the optional Tray2 can hold up to 500 sheets of paper. See “Sizes and Capacities” on page 4.3 for acceptable paper size and capacities of each tray. Tray1 Optional Tray2 Load a stack of paper into the tray and print. For details about loading paper in the Tray1 or the optional Tray2, see “Loading Paper” on page 2.6. Using the Multi-Purpose Tray Multi-Purpose Tray is located in the front of your printer.
• Load only one size of print material at a time in the Multi-Purpose Tray. • To prevent paper jams, do not add paper when there is still paper in the Multi-Purpose Tray. This also applies to other types of print materials. • Print materials should be loaded face up with the top edge going into the Multi-Purpose Tray first and be placed on the centre of the tray. • Do not place objects on the Multi-Purpose Tray. Also avoid pressing down or applying excessive force on it.
3 Prepare a stack of paper for loading by flexing or fanning them back and forth. Straighten the edges on a level surface. 4 Place paper on the centre of the tray with the print side face up. If you want to print on previously printed paper from the Multi-Purpose Tray, the printed side should be facing down with an uncurled edge to the printer. If you experience problems with paper feed, turn the paper around. NOTE: Make sure that you have not loaded too much print materials.
