Use care when you replace a lithium battery.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: There is a danger of explosion if a lithium battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace it only with the same or an equivalent type of lithium battery. Do not recharge, disassemble, or incinerate a lithium battery. Discard used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions and local regulations.

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 printer weight is greater than 18 kg (40 lb) and requires two or more trained personnel to move 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 wall outlet.

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

• Lift the printer off of the optional drawer and set it aside instead of trying to lift the drawer and printer at the

same time.

• If the printer has a static IP address that will stay the same, then you do not need to make any changes to the

computer configurations.

• If the computers are configured to print to the printer by a network name that will stay the same, instead of by

IP address, then you do not need to make any changes to the computer configurations.

• If you are adding a wireless ISP to a printer previously configured for a wired connection, then make sure the

wired network is disconnected when you configure the printer to operate wirelessly. If the wired connection remains connected, then the wireless configuration will complete, but the wireless ISP will not be active. This can be fixed by disconnecting the wired connection, turning the printer off, and then turning the printer back on again.

Linking and unlinking trays

Linking trays

Tray linking is useful for large print jobs or multiple copies. When one linked tray is empty, paper feeds from the next linked tray. When the Paper Size and Paper Type settings are the same for any trays, the trays are automatically linked.

The printer automatically senses the Paper Size setting according to the position of the paper guides in each tray except the multipurpose feeder. The printer can sense A4, A5, JIS B5, Letter, Legal, Executive, and Universal paper sizes. The multipurpose feeder and trays using other paper sizes can be linked manually using the Paper Size menu available from the Paper Size/Type menu.

Note: To link the multipurpose feeder, Configure MP must be set to Cassette in the Paper menu in order for MP Feeder Size to appear as a menu item.

The Paper Type setting must be set for all trays from the Paper Type menu available from the Paper Size/Type menu.

Unlinking trays

Unlinked trays have settings that are not the same as the settings of any other tray.

To unlink a tray, change the following tray settings so that they do not match the settings of any other tray:

• Paper Type (for example: Plain Paper, Letterhead, Custom Type <x>)

Paper Type names describe the paper characteristics. If the name that best describes your paper is used by linked trays, assign a different Paper Type name to the tray, such as Custom Type <x>, or define your own custom name.

• Paper Size (for example: letter, A4, statement)

Load a different paper size to change the Paper Size setting for a tray automatically. Paper Size settings for the multipurpose feeder are not automatic; they must be set manually from the Paper Size menu.

Warning—Potential Damage: Do not assign a Paper Type name that does not accurately describe the type of paper loaded in the tray. The temperature of the fuser varies according to the specified Paper Type. Paper may not be properly processed if an inaccurate Paper Type is selected.

Linking exit bins

The standard exit bin holds up to 350 sheets or 550 sheets of 20 lb paper, depending on the printer model. If you need additional output capacity, you can purchase other optional exit bins.

Note: Not all exit bins support every paper size and type.

Linking exit bins lets you create a single output source so the printer can automatically switch output to the next available exit bin.

Paper and specialty media guidelines

Paper guidelines

Paper characteristics

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

Note: For detailed information on card stock and labels, see the Card Stock & Label Guide available on the Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com/publications.

Weight

The printer can automatically feed paper weights from 60–176 g/m2 (16–47 lb bond) grain long. Paper lighter than 60 g/m bond) grain long paper. For paper smaller than 182 x 257 mm (7.2 x 10.1 in.), we recommend 90 g/m paper.

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

(24 lb) or heavier

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.

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.

Condition paper before printing by storing it in its original wrapper in the same environment as the printer for 24 to 48 hours before printing. Extend the time 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 60–176 g/m short is recommended.

(16–47 lb bond) paper, grain long paper is recommended. For paper heavier than 176 g/m2, grain

Paper and specialty media guidelines

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.

For detailed information on paper with recycled fiber content, see “Using recycled paper and other office papers” on page 68.

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 appropriate paper prevents jams and helps ensure trouble-free printing.

To help avoid jams and poor print quality:

• Always use new, undamaged paper.

• Before loading paper, know the recommended print 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 source; 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 papers with rough or heavily textured surfaces.

Use papers printed with heat-resistant inks designed for use in xerographic copiers. The ink must be able to withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without melting or releasing hazardous emissions. 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. When in doubt, contact the paper supplier.

(16–24 lb) paper.

Paper and specialty media guidelines

Preprinted papers such as letterhead must be able to withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without melting or releasing hazardous emissions.

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

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%. Most label

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

• Store paper in cartons when possible, 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.

Tips on using letterhead

• Use letterhead designed specifically for laser printers.

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

• Before loading letterhead, fan the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together.

Printing

• Page orientation is important when printing on letterhead. For information on how to load letterhead, see: – “Loading the standard or optional 250-sheet or 550-sheet tray” on page 53 – “Loading the 2000-sheet tray” on page 56 – “Loading the multipurpose feeder” on page 60

Tips on using transparencies

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

When printing on transparencies:

• Feed transparencies from a 250-sheet tray, a 550-sheet tray, or the multipurpose feeder.

• Use transparencies designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure

transparencies are able to withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without melting, discoloring, offsetting, or releasing hazardous emissions.

• Use transparencies that are 138–146 g/m

(37–39 lb. bond) in weight.

• To prevent print quality problems, avoid getting fingerprints on the transparencies.

• Before loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together.

• We recommend Lexmark part number 12A5010 for A4-size transparencies and Lexmark part number 70X7240

for letter-size transparencies.

Tips on using envelopes

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

When printing on envelopes:

• Feed envelopes from the multipurpose feeder or the optional envelope feeder.

• Set the Paper Type to Envelope, and select the envelope size.

• Use envelopes designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure the

envelopes can withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without sealing, wrinkling, curling excessively, or releasing hazardous emissions.

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

weight for envelopes as long as the cotton content is 25% or less. All-cotton envelopes must not exceed

90 g/m

(24 lb bond) weight.

(24 lb bond) paper. Use up to 105 g/m2 (28 lb bond)

• Use only new envelopes.

• 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

Printing

– Have bent corners – Have rough, cockle, or laid finishes

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

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

Tips on using labels

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

Notes:

• Paper, dual-web paper, polyester, and vinyl labels are supported.

• When using the duplex unit, specially-designed, integrated, and dual-web paper labels are supported.

• Printing labels requires a special label fuser cleaner which is included with the special cartridge required for label

applications. For more information, see “Ordering supplies” on page 170.

For detailed information on label printing, characteristics, and design, see the Card Stock & Label Guide available on the Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com/publications.

When printing on labels:

• Feed labels from a 250-sheet tray, a 550-sheet tray, or the multipurpose feeder.

• Use labels designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to verify that: – The labels can withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without sealing, excessive curling, wrinkling, or

releasing hazardous emissions.

– Label adhesives, face sheet (printable stock), and topcoats can withstand up to 25 psi (172 kPa) pressure

without delaminating, oozing around the edges, or releasing hazardous fumes.

• Do not use labels with slick backing material.

• 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 cartridge warranties.

• Do not use labels with exposed adhesive.

• Do not print within 1 mm (0.04 in.) of the edge of the label, of the perforations, or between die-cuts of the label.

• Be sure adhesive backing does not reach to the sheet edge. Zone coating of the adhesive at least 1 mm (0.04 in.)

away from edges is recommended. Adhesive material contaminates the printer and could void the warranty.

• If zone coating of the adhesive is not possible, remove a 1.6-mm (0.06-in.) strip on the leading and driver edge,

and use a non-oozing adhesive.

• Portrait orientation works best, especially when printing bar codes.

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 impact print quality. Print samples on the card stock being considered for use before buying large quantities.

When printing on card stock:

• Feed card stock from a 250-sheet tray, a 550-sheet tray, or the multipurpose feeder.

• Make sure the Paper Type is Card Stock.

• Select the appropriate Paper Texture setting.

Printing

• Be aware that preprinting, perforation, and creasing may significantly affect the print quality and cause jams or

Printing confidential and other held jobs

Holding jobs in the printer

When sending a job to the printer, you can specify that you want the printer to hold the job in memory until you start the job from the printer control panel. All print jobs that can be initiated by the user at the printer are called held jobs.

Note: Confidential, Verify, Reserve, and Repeat print jobs may be deleted if the printer requires extra memory to process additional held jobs.

Job type Description

Confidential When you send a Confidential print job to the printer, you must create a PIN

from the computer. The PIN must be four digits using the numbers 0–9. The job is held in printer memory until you enter the PIN from the printer control panel and choose to print or delete the job.

Verify When you send a Verify print job, the printer prints one copy and holds the

remaining copies in printer memory. Verify lets you examine the first copy to see if it is satisfactory before printing the remaining copies. Once all copies are printed, the job is automatically deleted from printer memory.

Reserve When you send a Reserve print job, the printer does not print the job

immediately. It stores the job in memory so you can print the job later. The job is held in memory until you delete it from the Held Jobs menu.

Repeat When you send a Repeat print job, the printer prints all requested copies of

the job and stores the job in memory so you can print additional copies later. You can print additional copies as long as the job remains stored in memory.

Other types of held jobs include:

• Profiles from various sources including Lexmark Document Solutions Suite (LDSS)

• Forms from a kiosk

• Bookmarks

• Jobs not printed, which are called parked jobs
