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
3.3
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.

APER HANDLING
Page 42
You can load letterhead paper with the design side facing up. The top edge of the sheet with the logo should be placed at the right side.
For details on loading paper in the Tray, see page 1.15.
After loading paper in the Tray, you need to set the correct paper size using the control panel buttons. See page 1.19.

:
• When you print a file from your PC using the paper Tray, make sure that you select the Paper source and the correct paper size from your software application before starting your print job.
• If you experience problem with the paper feed, place the paper in the Bypass Tray.
• You can load up to 300 sheets of previously printed paper. The printed side should be facing down with the uncurled edge at the right side. If you experience problems with the paper feed, turn the paper around. Note that the print quality is not guaranteed.

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.
The following table summarizes the print media allowed as well as their stacking height limit.

Notes:
• Always load only use print media specified in Specifications to avoid paper jams and print quality problems.
• Do not hit the Bypass Tray or rest your hands on it; otherwise the tray may be damaged or detached from the machine.
• Flatten any curling on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading them into the Bypass Tray.

2
Prepare a stack of paper or envelopes for loading by flexing or fanning them back and forth. Straighten the edges on a level surface.
3
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 before loading transparencies. Doing so prevents paper jams while feeding.

Load the print material with the side you want to print facing down and against the right edge of 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.

Printer Settings
You can use the machine with all your Windows 95/98/Me/2000/ XP or Windows NT 4.0 applications. Be sure to set Type 102 PCL 6 as the default printer for all of your Windows operations.
Most Windows software applications allow you to make changes to the printer settings. This includes settings that determine how a print job looks such as paper size, paper orientation, and margins. Settings made in the application to create the document will usually override settings made in the printer driver.

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.
1
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.

When you change the print settings from your software application, access the printer properties. See page 5.2.

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:
