Tips for

There are a few things you should know about printing on single
sheets as opposed to continuous paper. When you print on single
sheets, you may notice that your printer prints the first page of your
file correctly but then prints too low on the next page, or that it
prints the last few lines from one page onto the next.

These differences in print position are easy to adjust; you can simply
change some of the settings in your application program as
described below to get the right results.

Printing

When you install an application program, it normally asks

1.

you what printer you are using. Make sure you choose the
correct printer. See Chapter 1 for the right printer to choose.

About Your Ink Jet Printer

If you’re new to ink jet printers, you may wonder how they

differ from dot matrix or laser printers. Two noticeable benefits

of this technology are high print quality and quiet printing.
An ink jet printer produces cost-effective, quality print results.

When you use the right paper, you get crisp, laser-sharp

printouts usually associated with laser printers. And the ink
cartridge inside your printer is easier to replace and more
affordable than the toner cartridges used by lasers.

Inside the ink jet print head, tiny spray units, or jets, draw ink
from the cartridge and then propel them onto the page in the
form of characters or graphics. Because the print head doesn’t
strike the page as it prints, it is much quieter than an impact
printer such as a dot-matrix.

A few precautions

Even if you are familiar with other types of printers, be sure to
read through the following list of precautions to operate your
ink jet printer safely and efficiently:

Under normal circumstances, ink will not come out of the

cl

cartridge. If it does get on your skin, wash it off with soap
and water. If it gets in your eyes, flush them immediately
with water.

Keep the ink cartridges out of the reach of children.

cl

Do not dismantle the ink cartridges or try to refill them.

0

Once you install the ink cartridge, do not open the clamp or

Ll

remove the ink cartridge except to replace it with a new
one. The cartridge may become unusable otherwise.

Install the ink cartridge immediately after you remove it

D

from its package. Leaving the cartridge unpacked for a long
time before use may result in poor print quality.

1-2

Setting Up Your Printer

t2

Do not use an ink cartridge beyond its rated life expectancy.
Ink cartridges are good up to the date printed on the
cartridge carton.

Cl

When moving the ink cartridge from a cold place to a warm
one, let it sit for about one hour until the ink warms to the
new temperature.

Cl

Do not turn off the printer while printing or before the print
head is capped. (The print head is capped when it is in the
far right position.) The print head caps automatically if the
printer receives no data for several seconds. You can also
cap the print head by pressing the

Do not put your hand inside the printer or touch the
cartridge during printing.

Before transporting the printer, make sure the print head is
capped, and do not remove the ink cartridge.

Pause

button.

Choosing

One of the keys to getting great results with your ink jet printer
is selecting the right paper. Paper absorbency is an especially
important consideration. With paper that is too absorbent, the
ink can bleed slightly, causing characters to blur. However,
with paper that is not absorbent enough, the ink may take too

long to dry and smear easily.

The finish and thickness of the paper are also important. Avoid
paper that has a rough finish or a slick, coated finish. Also,

avoid paper that is too thick or too thin. See the paper
specifications in the Appendix for more information.

Most correspondence-quality paper works in your printer
without problems. However, it is a good practice to test any
paper or envelopes in your printer before buying large

quantities.

the

right paper

Setting Up Your Printer

1-3

To test a supply of paper, take a single sheet from the package
and load it in the printer. Perform the self test and check the
results. You should test both sides of the paper to determine
which gives you the best quality printing. If the ink does not
bleed or smear, the paper should be suitable for use with your
printer.

Because the drying speed for the ink depends on the pattern
being printed, the type of paper used, and the temperature and
humidity, some smudging or streaking may occur under
certain conditions. If the ink does not dry quickly enough, try
removing sheets one at a time as they finish printing.

Note:

Unpacking the

Printer

Your printer box should include these items:

Setting Up Your Printer

Paper support

Power cord

In some locations, the power cord comes attached to the printer.
The shape of the AC plug varies by country; be sure the plug
included is the right shape for your location.

You must remove all packing and protective materials packed
with your printer before you can set it up and turn on the
power. Follow the directions on the Notice Sheet (inserted in

your printer) to remove these materials.
Save all of the packaging and the protective materials in case

you ever need to transport the printer.

Attaching

You should install the paper support before you begin using the

printer. To install it, push the paper support notches onto the
mounting posts on the printer case.

Choosing a

When selecting a location for your printer, follow these

guidelines:

Place the printer on a flat, horizontal, stable surface. If the

printer is tilted or at an angle, it cannot operate properly.

Ll

Place the printer close enough to the computer for the
interface cable to reach it easily.

cl

Leave adequate room for easy operation and maintenance.
Avoid using or storing the printer in places subject to rapid

ci

changes in temperature and humidity. Also keep it away

from direct sunlight, strong light sources, or heat

generating devices.

D

Avoid places subject to shocks and vibrations.

D

Place the printer where you can easily unplug the power
cord.

cl

Avoid electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or
automatic timers. Also, avoid outlets on the same circuit as
large motors or other appliances that can cause fluctuations
in line voltage.

Keep the entire computer system away from potential

pages. The exact number of pages a single cartridge can print
varies according to the amount of text and graphics on each

page.

The first time you use your new printer, you need to charge the
ink delivery system with ink. You need to perform this
operation only once.
