Paper Recommendations

Loading Paper

• Do not use ink-jet printer paper because it may stick to the fusing unit and cause a paper misfeed.

• When printing on OHP transparencies that have a print side, load them with the print side over on the bypass tray. Not taking this precaution may cause them to stick to the fusing unit and cause misfeeds.

• Set the paper as described below

• Tray 1: Print side facing down

• Bypass Tray: Print side facing up

• Paper Feed Unit (Tray 2, Tray 3): Print side facing down

• Print quality cannot be guaranteed if paper other than the ones recommended is used. For more information about recommended paper, contact your sales or service representative.

• Do not use paper that has already been printed onto by other printers.

Storing Paper

• Paper should always be stored properly. Improperly stored paper might result in poor print quality, paper misfeeds, or printer damage. Recommendations are as follows:

• Avoid storing paper in humid areas.

• Avoid exposing paper to direct sunlight.

• Store on a flat surface.

• Keep paper in the package in which the paper came.

Enabled paper feeding tray Tray 2, Tray 3 (Envelope Feeder Type 400)

Bypass Tray

• Make sure paper is not stacked higher than the upper limit mark ( ) inside the tray. Make sure paper is not stacked higher than the paper guides inside the bypass tray.

Both-sided printing Not possible

Additional cautions • Check the print side is facing up.

• Check there is no air in the envelopes before loading.

• For better print quality, we recommend the right, left, top, and bottom print margins to be at least 20 mm (0.8") each.

• Load only one size and type of envelope at a time.

• Before loading envelopes, flatten their leading edges (the edge going into the printer) by running a pencil or ruler across them.

• Some kinds of envelope might cause misfeeds, wrinkles or print poorly.

Paper Recommendations

• Print quality on envelopes may be uneven if parts of an envelope have differing thicknesses. Print one or two envelopes to check print quality.

• The following can occur when printing on envelopes:

• creased long edges

• smudged backs

• blurred print

If envelopes are printed over with solid black, white streaks might appear where the envelopes overlap. Using the envelope lever can resolve these problems. For more information about envelope lever, see p.164 "Using the Envelope Lever".

• Load envelopes with the print side down in the Tray1 or optional paper feed unit.

• Load envelopes with flaps closed to the left side of the tray. When printing with a printer driver, select the [Rotate by 180 degrees] check box on the "Misc." tab.

Loading Paper in Tray 1 and the Optional Paper Feed Unit

The following example explains loading procedure for the standard paper tray (Tray 1). The same procedure can be used for the optional paper feed unit.

• Make sure paper is not stacked above the limit mark inside the tray. Misfeeds might occur.

• Do not put different types of paper in a single paper tray.

• Up to 500 sheets of paper can be loaded in the paper feed unit. This means a maximum of 1,500 sheets can be simultaneously loaded when two additional paper feed units are installed.

• Confirm that paper fits under the rear guide.

• Do not slide the paper tray in with force. If you do, the front and side guides might move.

1. Lift the paper tray slightly, and then pull it out until it stops.

• To load thick paper, OHP transparencies, or envelopes, make settings for thick paper, envelope, or OHP transparencies using both the control panel and printer driver.

• The number of pages that can be loaded in the bypass tray differs depending on paper type. Make sure paper is not stacked above the paper guides inside the bypass tray.

Specifying custom size paper for the bypass tray

• When loading custom size or special paper, specify the paper size using both the control panel and printer driver.

• Paper sizes between 139.7 - 432 mm (5.50 - 17.00 in.) in length and 64 - 216 mm (2.52 - 8.50 in.) in width can be loaded in the bypass tray. However, the size range varies depending on a type of printer drivers. For details, see the printer driver Help.

• Be sure to set a same size using both the control panel and the printer driver. If you set different size, printer error will occur.

• You cannot print on custom size paper with an application that does not support the custom size setting.
