Safety information

Connect the power cord directly to an appropriately rated and properly grounded electrical outlet that is near the product and easily accessible.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: Do not use this product with extension cords, multioutlet power strips, multioutlet extenders, or other types of surge or UPS devices. The power rating capacity of these types of accessories can be easily overloaded by a laser printer and may result in poor printer performance, property damage, or potential fire.

Do not place or use this product near water or wet locations.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: This product uses a laser. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

This product uses a printing process that heats the print media, and the heat may cause the media to release emissions. You must understand the section in your operating instructions that discusses the guidelines for selecting print media to avoid the possibility of harmful emissions.

CAUTION—HOT SURFACE: The inside of the printer might be hot. To reduce the risk of injury from a hot component, allow the surface to cool before touching.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: The lithium battery in this product is not intended to be replaced. There is a danger of explosion if a lithium battery is incorrectly replaced. Do not recharge, disassemble, or incinerate a lithium battery. Discard used lithium batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions and local regulations.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: The printer weight is greater than 18 kg (40 lb) and requires two or more trained personnel to lift it safely.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: Before moving the printer, follow these guidelines to avoid personal injury or printer damage:

• Turn the printer off using the power switch, and then unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.

• Disconnect all cords and cables from the printer before moving it.

• Lift the printer off the optional tray, and then set it aside instead of trying to lift the tray and printer at the same

time.

Note: Use the handholds located on both sides of the printer to lift it.

Use only the power cord provided with this product or the manufacturer's authorized replacement.

Use only the telecommunications (RJ‑11) cord provided with this product or a 26 AWG or larger replacement when connecting this product to the public switched telephone network.

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: If you are accessing the controller board or installing optional hardware or memory devices sometime after setting up the printer, then turn the printer off, and unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet before continuing. If you have any other devices attached to the printer, then turn them off as well, and unplug any cables going into the printer.

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: Make sure that all external connections (such as Ethernet and telephone system connections) are properly installed in their marked plug-in ports.

This product is designed, tested, and approved to meet strict global safety standards with the use of specific manufacturer's components. The safety features of some parts may not always be obvious. The manufacturer is not responsible for the use of other replacement parts.

Safety information 8

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: Do not cut, twist, bind, crush, or place heavy objects on the power cord. Do not subject the power cord to abrasion or stress. Do not pinch the power cord between objects such as furniture and walls. If any of these things happen, a risk of fire or electrical shock results. Inspect the power cord regularly for signs of such problems. Remove the power cord from the electrical outlet before inspecting it.

Refer service or repairs, other than those described in the user documentation, to a service representative.

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: To avoid the risk of electrical shock when cleaning the exterior of the printer, unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet and disconnect all cables from the printer before proceeding.

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: Do not use the fax feature during a lightning storm. Do not set up this product or make any electrical or cabling connections, such as the fax feature, power cord, or telephone, during a lightning storm.

CAUTION—TIPPING HAZARD: Floor-mounted configurations require additional furniture for stability. You must use either a printer stand or printer base if you are using multiple input options. If you purchased a multifunction printer (MFP) that scans, copies, and faxes, then you may need additional furniture. For more information, see

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: To reduce the risk of equipment instability, load each tray separately. Keep all other trays closed until needed.

Preparing to set up the printer on an Ethernet network

To configure your printer to connect to an Ethernet network, organize the following information before you begin:

Additional printer setup 38

Note: If your network automatically assigns IP addresses to computers and printers, continue on to installing the printer.

• A valid, unique IP address for the printer to use on the network

• The network gateway

• The network mask

• A nickname for the printer (optional)

Note: A printer nickname can make it easier for you to identify your printer on the network. You can choose to use the default printer nickname, or assign a name that is easier for you to remember.

You will need an Ethernet cable to connect the printer to the network and an available port where the printer can physically connect to the network. Use a new network cable when possible to avoid potential problems caused by a damaged cable.

Preparing to set up the printer on a wireless network

Notes:

• Make sure your wireless network adapter is installed in your printer and working properly. For more

information, see the instruction sheet that came with the wireless network adapter.

• Make sure your access point (wireless router) is turned on and is working properly.

Make sure you have the following information before setting up the printer on a wireless network:

• SSID—The SSID is also referred to as the network name.

• Wireless Mode (or Network Mode)—The mode is either infrastructure or ad hoc.

• Channel (for ad hoc networks)—The channel defaults to automatic for infrastructure networks.

Some ad hoc networks will also require the automatic setting. Check with your system support person if you are not sure which channel to select.

• Security Method—There are four basic options for Security Method: – WEP key

If your network uses more than one WEP key, then enter up to four in the provided spaces. Select the key currently in use on the network by selecting the default WEP transmit key.

– WPA or WPA2 preshared key or passphrase

WPA includes encryption as an additional layer of security. The choices are AES or TKIP. Encryption must be set for the same type on the router and on the printer, or the printer will not be able to communicate on the network.

– 802.1X–RADIUS

If you are installing the printer on an 802.1X network, then you may need the following:

• Authentication type

• Inner authentication type

• 802.1X user name and password

• Certificates

– No security

If your wireless network does not use any type of security, then you will not have any security information.

Note: We do not recommend using an unsecured wireless network.

Additional printer setup 39

Notes:

– If you do not know the SSID of the network that your computer is connected to, then launch the wireless utility

of the computer network adapter, and then look for the network name. If you cannot find the SSID or the security information for your network, then see the documentation that came with the access point, or contact your system support person.

Tips on using transparencies

Print a test page on the transparencies being considered for use before buying large quantities.

• From the printer control panel, set the paper size, type, texture, and weight in the Paper menu to match the

transparencies loaded in the tray.

• Print a test page on the transparencies being considered for use before buying large quantities.

• Feed transparencies from the 250-sheet tray, manual feeder, or multipurpose feeder.

• Use transparencies designed specifically for laser printers.

• Avoid getting fingerprints on the transparencies to prevent print quality problems.

• Before loading transparencies, flex, fan, and straighten the stacks to prevent sheets from sticking together.

Tips on using envelopes

• From the printer control panel, set the paper size, type, texture, and weight in the Paper menu to match the

envelopes loaded in the tray.

• Print samples on the envelopes being considered for use before buying large quantities.

• Use envelopes designed specifically for laser printers.

• For best performance, use envelopes made from 90‑g/m

• Use only new envelopes from undamaged packages.

• To optimize performance and minimize jams, do not use envelopes that: – Have excessive curl or twist. – Are stuck together or damaged in any way. – Have windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossing. – Have metal clasps, string ties, or folding bars. – Have an interlocking design. – Have postage stamps attached. – Have any exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed or closed position. – Have bent corners. – Have rough, cockle, or laid finishes.

• Adjust the width guides to fit the width of the envelopes.

• Before loading the envelopes on the tray, flex and fan the envelopes to loosen them. Straighten the edges on a

level surface.

(24‑lb) paper or 25% cotton.

Note: A combination of high humidity (over 60%) and high printing temperature may wrinkle or seal envelopes.

Tips on using labels

• From the printer control panel, set the paper size, type, texture, and weight in the Paper menu to match the labels

loaded in the tray.

• Print samples on labels being considered for use before buying large quantities.

• For more information on label printing, characteristics, and design, see the Card Stock & Label Guide at

http://support.lexmark.com.

• Use labels designed specifically for laser printers.

• Do not use labels with slick backing material.

Paper and specialty media guide 55

• Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a jam. Partial sheets

also contaminate the printer and the cartridge with adhesive, and could void the printer and toner cartridge warranties.

• Do not use labels with exposed adhesive.

• Before loading labels on the tray, flex and fan labels to loosen them. Straighten the edges on a level surface.

Tips on using card stock

Card stock is heavy, single‑ply specialty media. Many of its variable characteristics, such as moisture content, thickness, and texture, can significantly affect print quality.

• From the printer control panel, set the paper size, type, texture, and weight in the Paper menu to match the card

stock loaded in the tray.

• Print samples on the card stock being considered for use before buying large quantities.

• Specify the paper texture and weight from the tray settings to match the paper loaded in the tray.

• Preprinting, perforation, and creasing may significantly affect the print quality and cause jams or other paper feed

problems.

• Before loading the card stock on the tray, flex and fan the card stock to loosen them. Straighten the edges on a

level surface.

Paper guidelines

Select the correct paper or specialty media to reduce printing problems. For the best print quality, try a sample of the paper or specialty media before buying large quantities.

Paper characteristics

The following paper characteristics affect print quality and reliability. Consider these characteristics when evaluating new paper stock.

Weight

The printer trays can automatically feed paper weights up to 176‑g/m2 (47‑lb) bond grain long paper. The multipurpose feeder can automatically feed paper weights up to 176‑g/m 60 g/m bond grain long paper. For paper smaller than 182 x 257 mm (7.2 x 10.1 inches), we recommend 90 g/m

heavier paper.

Note: Duplex printing is supported from 60–105‑g/m

(16 lb) might not be stiff enough to feed properly, causing jams. For best performance, use 75‑g/m2 (20‑lb)

Curl

Curl is the tendency for paper to curl at its edges. Excessive curl can cause paper feeding problems. Curl can occur after the paper passes through the printer, where it is exposed to high temperatures. Storing paper unwrapped in hot, humid, cold, or dry conditions, even in the trays, can contribute to paper curling prior to printing and can cause feeding problems.

(47‑lb) bond grain long paper. Paper lighter than

(16–28‑lb) bond grain long paper.

(24 lb) or

Paper and specialty media guide 56

Smoothness

Paper smoothness directly affects print quality. If paper is too rough, then toner cannot fuse to it properly. If paper is too smooth, then it can cause paper feeding or print quality issues. Always use paper between 100 and 300 Sheffield points; smoothness between 150 and 250 Sheffield points produces the best print quality.

Moisture content

The amount of moisture in paper affects both print quality and the ability of the printer to feed the paper correctly. Leave paper in its original wrapper until it is time to use it. This limits the exposure of paper to moisture changes that can degrade its performance.

Store paper in its original wrapper in the same environment as the printer for 24 to 48 hours before printing. Extend the time to several days if the storage or transportation environment is very different from the printer environment. Thick paper may also require a longer conditioning period.

Grain direction

Grain refers to the alignment of the paper fibers in a sheet of paper. Grain is either grain long, running the length of the paper, or grain short, running the width of the paper.

For 60–90‑g/m

(16–24‑lb) bond paper, grain long paper is recommended.

Fiber content

Most high‑quality xerographic paper is made from 100% chemically treated pulped wood. This content provides the paper with a high degree of stability resulting in fewer paper feeding problems and better print quality. Paper containing fibers such as cotton can negatively affect paper handling.

Unacceptable paper

The following paper types are not recommended for use with the printer:

• Chemically treated papers used to make copies without carbon paper, also known as carbonless papers, carbonless

copy paper (CCP), or no carbon required (NCR) paper

• Preprinted papers with chemicals that may contaminate the printer

• Preprinted papers that can be affected by the temperature in the printer fuser

• Preprinted papers that require a registration (the precise print location on the page) greater than ±2.3 mm (±0.9 in.),

such as optical character recognition (OCR) forms In some cases, registration can be adjusted with a software application to successfully print on these forms.

• Coated papers (erasable bond), synthetic papers, thermal papers

• Rough‑edged, rough or heavily textured surface papers, or curled papers

• Recycled papers that fail EN12281:2002 (European)

• Paper weighing less than 60 g/m

• Multiple‑part forms or documents

(16 lb)

Selecting paper

Using the appropriate paper prevents jams and helps ensure trouble‑free printing.

Paper and specialty media guide 57

To help avoid paper jams and poor print quality:

• Always use new, undamaged paper.

• Before loading paper, know the recommended printable side of the paper. This information is usually indicated on

the paper package.

• Do not use paper that has been cut or trimmed by hand.

• Do not mix paper sizes, types, or weights in the same tray; mixing results in jams.

• Do not use coated papers unless they are specifically designed for electrophotographic printing.

Selecting preprinted forms and letterhead

Use these guidelines when selecting preprinted forms and letterhead:

• Use grain long for 60–90‑g/m

• Use only forms and letterhead printed using an offset lithographic or engraved printing process.

• Avoid paper with rough or heavily textured surfaces.

Use inks that are not affected by the resin in toner. Inks that are oxidation‑set or oil‑based generally meet these requirements; latex inks might not.

(16–24‑lb) paper.

When in doubt, contact your paper supplier.

Using recycled paper and other office papers

As an environmentally conscious company, Lexmark supports the use of recycled office paper produced specifically for use in laser (electrophotographic) printers. In 1998, Lexmark presented to the US government a study demonstrating that recycled paper produced by major mills in the US fed as well as non-recycled paper. However, no blanket statement can be made that all recycled paper will feed well.

Lexmark consistently tests its printers with recycled paper (20–100% post-consumer waste) and a variety of test paper from around the world, using chamber tests for different temperature and humidity conditions. Lexmark has found no reason to discourage the use of today's recycled office papers, but generally the following property guidelines apply to recycled paper.

• Low moisture content (4–5%)

• Suitable smoothness (100–200 Sheffield units, or 140–350 Bendtsen units, European)

Note: Some much smoother papers (such as premium 24 lb laser papers, 50–90 Sheffield units) and much rougher papers (such as premium cotton papers, 200–300 Sheffield units) have been engineered to work very well in laser printers, despite surface texture. Before using these types of paper, consult your paper supplier.

• Suitable sheet-to-sheet coefficient of friction (0.4–0.6)

• Sufficient bending resistance in the direction of feed

Recycled paper, paper of lower weight (<60 g/m that is cut grain-short for portrait (or short-edge) fed printers may have lower bending resistance than is required for reliable paper feeding. Before using these types of paper for laser (electrophotographic) printing, consult your paper supplier. Remember that these are general guidelines only and that paper meeting these guidelines may still cause paper feeding problems in any laser printer (for example, if the paper curls excessively under normal printing conditions).

[16 lb bond]) and/or lower caliper (<3.8 mils [0.1 mm]), and paper

Paper and specialty media guide 58

Storing paper

Use these paper storage guidelines to help avoid jams and uneven print quality:

• For best results, store paper where the temperature is 21°C (70°F) and the relative humidity is 40 percent. Most

label manufacturers recommend printing in a temperature range of 18–24°C (65–75°F) with relative humidity between 40 and 60 percent.

• Store paper in cartons, on a pallet or shelf, rather than on the floor.

• Store individual packages on a flat surface.

• Do not store anything on top of individual paper packages.

• Take paper out of the carton or wrapper only when you are ready to load it in the printer. The carton and wrapper

help keep the paper clean, dry, and flat.

This option lets you enter the recipient of your e-mail. You may enter multiple e‑mail addresses.

Subject

This option lets you type a subject line for your e-mail.

Message

This option lets you type a message that will be sent with your scanned attachment.

File Name

This option lets you customize the attachment file name.

Original Size

This option lets you set the paper size of the documents you are going to e‑mail. When Original Size is set to Mixed Sizes, you can scan an original document that contains mixed paper sizes (letter‑ and legal‑size pages).

Resolution

This option lets you adjust the output quality of your e-mail. Increasing the image resolution increases the e-mail file size and the time needed to scan your original document. Decreasing the image resolution reduces the file size.

Choosing a fax connection

Scenario 1: Standard telephone line

Setup 1: Printer is connected to a dedicated fax line

To connect:

1 Connect one end of the telephone cable that came with the printer to the port of the printer.

2 Connect the other end of the telephone cable to an active analog wall jack.

Tips for this setup:

• You can set the printer to receive faxes automatically (Auto Answer On) or manually (Auto Answer Off).

• If you want to receive faxes automatically (Auto Answer On), then set the printer to pick up on any number of rings

that you want.

Faxing 92

Setup 2: Printer is sharing the line with an answering machine

Connected to the same telephone wall jack

To connect:

1 Connect one end of the telephone cable that came with the printer to the port of the printer.

2 Connect the other end of the telephone cable to an active analog wall jack.

3 Connect the answering machine to the port of the printer.

Faxing 93

Connected to different wall jacks

To connect:

1 Connect one end of the telephone cable that came with the printer to the port of the printer.

2 Connect the other end of the telephone cable to an active analog wall jack.

Tips for this setup:

• If you have only one telephone number on your line, then you need to set the printer to receive faxes automatically

(Auto Answer On).

• Set the printer to pick up calls two rings after the answering machine. For example, if the answering machine picks

up calls after four rings, then set the printer to pick up after six rings. This way, the answering machine picks up calls first and your voice calls are received. If the call is a fax, then the printer detects the fax signal on the line and takes over the call.

• If you subscribe to a distinctive ring service provided by your telephone company, then make sure that you set the

correct ring pattern for the printer. Otherwise, the printer does not receive faxes even if you have set it to receive faxes automatically.

Faxing 94

Setup 3: Printer is sharing the line with a telephone subscribed to voice mail service

To connect:

1 Connect one end of the telephone cable that came with the printer to the port of the printer.

2 Connect the other end of the telephone cable to an active analog wall jack.

3 Connect the telephone to the port of the printer.

Tips for this setup:

• This setup works best if you subscribe to a distinctive ring service. If you have distinctive ring service, then make

sure that you set the correct ring pattern for the printer. Otherwise, the printer does not receive faxes even if you have set it to receive faxes automatically.

• If you have only one telephone number on your line, then you need to set the printer to receive faxes manually

(Auto Answer Off). When you answer the telephone and you hear fax tones, press *9* or the manual answer code on the telephone

to receive the fax.

• You can also set the printer to receive faxes automatically (Auto Answer On), but you need to turn off the voice

mail service when you are expecting a fax. This setting works best if you are using voice mail more often than fax.

Faxing 95

Scenario 2: Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)

A Digital Subscriber Line splits your regular telephone line into two channels: voice and Internet. Telephone and fax signals travel through the voice channel, and Internet signals pass through the other channel. This way, you can use the same line for analog voice calls (including faxes) and digital Internet access.

To minimize interference between the two channels and ensure a quality connection, you need to install a DSL filter for the analog devices (fax machine, telephone, answering machine) in your network. Interference causes noise and static on the telephone, failed and poor quality faxes for the printer, and slow Internet connection on your computer.

To install a filter for the printer:

1 Connect the line port of the DSL filter to the wall jack.

2 Connect one end of the telephone cable that came with your printer to the port of the printer. Connect the other

end to the phone port on the DSL filter.

3 To continue using a computer for Internet access, connect the computer to the DSL HPN port on the DSL filter.

4 To connect a telephone to the printer, remove any installed adapter plug from the port of the printer, and then

connect the telephone to the port.

Faxing 96

Scenario 3: VoIP telephone service

To connect:

1 Connect one end of the telephone cable that came with the printer to the port of the printer.

2 Connect the other end of the cable to the port labeled Phone Line 1 or Phone Port on the VoIP adapter.

Note: The port labeled Phone Line 2 or Fax Port is not always active. VoIP providers may charge additional cost

for activation of the second phone port.

3 Connect the telephone to the port of the printer.

Tips for this setup:

• To make sure that the phone port on the VoIP adapter is active, plug an analog telephone into the phone port, and

then listen for a dial tone. If you hear a dial tone, then the port is active.

• If you need two phone ports for your devices, but do not want to pay additional cost, then do not plug the printer

into the second phone port. You can use a phone splitter. Plug the phone splitter into the port labeled Phone Line 1 or Phone Port, and then plug the printer and telephone into the splitter.

Note: Make sure you use a phone splitter, not a line splitter. To make sure that you are using the correct

splitter, plug an analog telephone into the splitter and then listen for a dial tone.

Faxing 97

Scenario 4: Digital telephone service through a cable provider

Setup 1: Printer is connected directly to a cable modem

1 Connect one end of the telephone cable that came with your printer to the port of the printer.

2 Connect the other end of the cable to the port labeled Phone Line 1 or Phone Port on the cable modem.

Note: The port labeled Phone Line 2 or Fax Port is not always active. VoIP providers may charge additional cost

for activation of the second phone port.

3 Connect your analog telephone phone to the port of the printer.

Notes:

• To make sure that the telephone port on the cable modem is active, plug an analog telephone into the

telephone port, and then listen for a dial tone. If you hear a dial tone, then the port is active.

• If you need two telephone ports for your devices, but do not want to pay additional cost, then do not plug the

printer into the second telephone port. You can use a phone splitter. Plug the phone splitter into the Phone Line 1 or Phone Port, and then plug the printer and telephone into the splitter.

Faxing 98

• Make sure you use a phone splitter, not a line splitter. To make sure that you are using the correct splitter, plug

an analog telephone into the splitter and then listen for a dial tone.

Setup 2: Printer is connected to a wall jack; cable modem is installed elsewhere in the facility

1 Connect one end of the telephone cable that came with your printer to the port of the printer.

2 Connect the other end of the telephone cable to an active analog telephone wall jack.

3 Connect your analog telephone to the port of the printer.

Scenario 5: Countries or regions with different telephone wall jacks and plugs

Some countries or regions may have different types of telephone wall jack connectors than those that came with the printer. The standard wall jack adopted by most countries or regions is RJ-11. Your printer comes with the RJ-11 jack and a telephone cable with the RJ-11 plug.

Faxing 99

If the wall jack or equipment in your facility is not compatible with this type of connection, then you need to use a telephone adapter. An adapter for your country or region may not come with your printer, and you may need to purchase it separately.

There may be an adapter plug installed in the port of the printer. If you are using a telephone adapter or a facility that has a cascaded or serial wiring scheme, then do not remove the adapter plug from the

port of the printer.

Notes:

• The port of the printer may have an adapter plug for use with the adapter. Do not remove the plug from

the

port of the printer.

• In some countries or regions, the printer may not come with a telephone adapter or an adapter plug.
