Labels

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 adhe-
sive 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.
Try printing your data on a sheet of plain paper first to check placement. Check your application documentation for more information on printing labels.

Printable Area

The printable area on all media sizes is up to 4.2 mm (0.165") 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).
This area is subject to both hardware limits (the physical media size and the margins required by the machine) and software constraints (the amount of memory available for the full-page frame buffer). The printable area for all media sizes is the page size minus
4.2 mm (0.165") from all edges of the media.

Envelopes

Envelopes can only be printed on their front sides (side where the recipient’s address is written). In addition, printing on the front side in the area overlap­ping the back flap cannot be guaranteed. The location of this area differs depending on the envelope type.

Page Margins

Margins are set through your application. Some applications allow you to set custom page sizes and margins while others have only standard page sizes and margins from which to choose. If you choose a standard format, you may lose part of your image (due to printable area constraints). If you can cus­tom-size your page in your application, use those sizes given for the printable area for optimum results.

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. Continuous printing on media other than plain paper (such as envelopes, labels, or thick stock) may adversely affect print quality or reduce engine life.
When refilling media, first remove any media remaining in the tray. Stack it with the new media, even the edges, then reload it.
Do not mix media of different types and sizes, as this will cause media mis­feeds.

Duplexing

Select paper with high opacity for duplex (double sided) printing. Opacity refers to how effectively paper blocks out what is written on the opposite side of the page. If the paper has low opacity (high translucency), then the printed data from one side of the page will show through to the other side. Check your application for margin information. For best results, print a small quantity to make sure the opacity is acceptable.
Duplex (Double sided) printing can be done automatically with the duplex option installed and selected.
Note
Only Letter/A4 plain paper, 60–90 g/m2 (16–24 lb bond) can be autoduplexed. See “Print Media” on page 5-2.
Duplexing envelopes, labels, postcards, thick stock, or letterhead is not supported.
How do I autoduplex?
You should verify that the duplex option is physically installed on the printer to successfully duplex the job.
Check your application to determine how to set your margins for duplex printing.

Output Tray

All printed media is output to the face-down output tray on top of the printer. This tray has a capacity of approximately 100 sheets (A4/Letter) of 80 g/m (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.
Output Tray5-22

Media Storage

How do I store media?
Keep media on a flat, level surface in its original wrapper until it is time to
load it.
Media that has been stored for a long time out of its packaging may dry up too much and cause misfeeding.
If media has been removed from its wrapper, place it in its original pack-
aging and store in a cool, dark place on a level surface.
Avoid moisture, excessive humidity, direct sunlight, excessive heat (above
35°C [95°F]), and dust.
Avoid media leaning against other objects or placing it in an upright posi-
tion.
Before using stored media, do a trial print and check print quality.

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 car-
tridge is installed, then toner remaining amount may not be accurate.
" The toner is nontoxic. If you get toner on your skin, wash it off with
cool water and a mild soap. If you get toner on your clothes, lightly dust them off as best as you can. If some toner remains on your clothes, use cool, not hot water, to rinse the toner off.
CAUTION
If you get toner in your eyes, wash it out immediately with cool water and consult a doctor.
" Refer to the following URL for recycling information.
US: printer.konicaminolta.com/products/recycle/index.asp Europe: www.konicaminolta.eu/printing-solutions/more-information/ clean-planet.html Other regions: printer.konicaminolta.com
Note
Do not use refilled toner cartridges or unapproved toner cartridges. Any damage to the printer or quality problems caused by a refilled toner cartridge or unapproved toner cartridge will void your warranty. No technical support is provided to recover from these problems.
Replacing Consumables6-2
When replacing a toner cartridge, refer to the following table.

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.
Do not hold, stand or store cartridges on their ends or turn them upside down; the toner inside the cartridges may become caked or unequally distributed.
Away from salty air and corrosive gases such as aerosols.
