FCC Requirements
1. This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and requirements adopted
by the ACTA. On the cover of this equipment is a label that contains, among other
information, a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXXX. If requested,
this number must be provided to the telephone company.
2. This equipment uses the RJ11C USOC jack.
3. A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and
telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and

is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to a compatible
modular jack that is also compliant. See installation instructions for detail.
4. The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a
telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not
ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs
should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be
connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone
company. The REN for this product is part of the product identifier that has the
format US:AAAEQ##TXXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a
decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3).
5. If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company
will notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be
required. But if advance notice is not practical, the telephone company will notify
the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a
complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
6. The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations
or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens the

Paper Guidelines
When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special
media, keep these guidelines in mind:
• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper
can cause paper jams and poor print quality.
• Use only high quality copier grade paper. Avoid paper with
embossed lettering, perforations, or texture that is too
smooth or too rough.
• Store paper in its ream wrapper until ready to use. Place
cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor. Do not place
heavy objects on top of the paper, whether it is packaged or
unpackaged. Keep it away from moisture, or other conditions
that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.
• During storage, moisture-proof wrap (any plastic container or
bag) should be used to prevent dust and moisture from
contaminating your paper.
• Always use paper and other media that conform with the
specifications listed under “General Specifications” on
page A.2.
• Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp, well creased
folds.
- DO NOT use envelopes with clasps and snaps.
- DO NOT use envelopes with windows, coated lining,
self-adhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.
- DO NOT use damaged or poorly made envelopes.
3
• It is recommended that you feed special paper types one
sheet at a time.
• Only use the special media recommended for use in laser
printers.
• To prevent special media such as transparencies and label
sheets from sticking together, remove them from the exit tray
as they are printed.
• Place transparencies on a flat surface after removing them
from the machine.
• Do not leave the film in the paper tray for long periods of
time. Dust and dirt may accumulate on them resulting in
spotty printing.
• To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle
transparencies and coated paper carefully.
• To avoid fading, do not expose the printed transparencies to
prolonged sunlight.
P
APER HANDLING

Page 41
• Store unused media at temperatures between 59oF and 86oF
o
(15
C to 30oC). The relative humidity should be between 10%
and 70%.
• Do not load more than 10 sheets of special media into the
Bypass Tray at a time.
• Verify that your labels’ adhesive material can tolerate fusing
temperature of 200
o
C (392oF) for 0.1 second.
• Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material
between labels. Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off
during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed
adhesive can also cause damage to machine components.
• Do not feed a sheet of labels through the machine more than
once. The adhesive backing is designed for one pass through
the machine.
• Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet
or are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.
TrayLoading Paper in the Tray
The paper Tray can hold a maximum of 550 sheets of 20lb(75g)
plain paper. For copying or faxing, you can use A4-, letter-, or
legal-size paper only.
To load paper, pull open the paper Tray and place paper with the
side you want to print facing up.

• When you print a file from your PC using the paper Tray, make

• You can load up to 300 sheets

Using the Bypass Tray
Bypass Tray is located at the right side of your machine. It can
be closed when you are not using it, making the machine more
compact.
Use the Bypass Tray to print transparencies, labels, envelopes
or postcards in addition to making quick runs of paper types or
sizes that are not currently loaded in the paper Tray.
Acceptable print media are plain paper with sizes ranging from
98 x 148 mm (3.9 x 5.8 in.) to Legal 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14
in.), the largest size acceptable, and weighing between 16lb and
32lb.

For transparencies, hold the transparencies by the edges
and avoid touching the print side. Oils from your fingers
that are deposited on the transparency can cause print
quality problems. If you are using the transparencies with
paper backing, insert a sheet of plain paper on the tray

Printing a Document
This procedure describes the general steps required for printing
from various Windows applications. The exact steps for printing
a document may vary depending on the application program you
are using. Refer to your software application’s for the exact
printing procedure.
The following steps describe the typical process to print from
Windows:
1
Ensure that your machine is properly connected to the
computer, the machine is powered on, and there is paper in
the paper tray.
2
Verify that you have installed the software for your
computer. For details, see “Installing the Software” on
page 2.4.
3
Start the program you are using to create the document,
and create or open the document you want to print.
4
Choose Print or Print Setup from the File menu. Make
sure that Type 102 PCL 6 is selected as your default
printer. Click Properties or Setup if you want to make any
adjustments that are appropriate for printing your
document. For details, see “Printer Settings” on page 5.3.

Using Overlays
What is an Overlay?
An overlay is text and/or images stored in the computer hard
disk drive (HDD) as a special file format that can be printed on
any document. Overlays are often used to take the place of
preprinted forms and letterhead paper. Rather than using
preprinted letterhead, you can create an overlay containing the
exact same information that is currently on your letterhead. To
print a letter with your company’s letterhead, you do not need
to load preprinted letterhead paper in the machine. You need
only tell the machine to print the letterhead overlay on your
document.
Creating a New Page Overlay
To use a page overlay, you must create a new page overlay
containing your logo or image.

Create or open a document containing text or an image for
use in a new page overlay. Position the items exactly as
you wish them to appear when printed as an overlay. If
needed, save the file for later use.

Expected Cartridge Life
The life of your toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner
used in each print job. For instance, when you print a typical
business letter with about 5% page coverage, you can expect a
toner cartridge life of approximately 6,000 pages.(The original
toner cartridge supplied with the printer lasts an average of
3,000 pages.) The actual number may vary according to the
print density of the page you print. If you print a lot of graphics,
you may need to change the cartridge more often.
Replacing the Toner Cartridge
When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life, white streaks
or light copy will occur. The LCD displays a warning message
“TONER LOW.” You can temporarily re-establish the print quality
by re-distributing the remaining toner in the cartridge.
To do this:
