Changing port settings after installing a new network Internal Solutions Port

When a new Lexmark Internal Solutions Port (ISP) is installed in the printer, the printer configurations on computers that access the printer must be updated since the printer will be assigned a new IP address. All computers that access the printer must be updated with this new IP address.

Notes:

• If the printer has a static IP address, then you do not need to make any changes to the computer configurations.

• If the computers are configured to use the network name, instead of an IP address, then you do not need to

make any changes to your computer configurations.

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

the printer is disconnected from the Ethernet network when you configure the printer to operate wirelessly. If the printer is connected to the Ethernet network, then the wireless configuration completes, but the wireless ISP is inactive. To activate the wireless ISP, disconnect the printer from the Ethernet network, turn off the printer, and then turn it back on.

• Only one network connection is active at a time. To switch between Ethernet and wireless connection types,

turn off the printer, connect the cable (to switch to an Ethernet connection) or disconnect the cable (to switch to a wireless connection), and then turn the printer back on.

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, flex, fan, and straighten the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together.

• Page orientation is important when printing on letterhead. For information on how to load letterhead, see: – “Loading trays” on page 57 – “Loading the multipurpose feeder” on page 62

Tips on using transparencies

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

• Feed transparencies from the standard tray, or the multipurpose feeder.

• Use transparencies designed specifically for laser printers. Transparencies must be able to withstand temperatures

up to 185°C (365°F) without melting, discoloring, offsetting, or releasing hazardous emissions.

Note: If the transparency weight is set to Heavy and the transparency texture is set to Rough in the Paper menu, then transparencies can be printed at a temperature up to 195°C (383°F).

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

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

Tips on using envelopes

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

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

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

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

must not exceed 75‑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

(20‑lb bond) weight.

(24‑lb bond) paper or 25% cotton. All‑cotton envelopes

Page 70

Paper and specialty media guide 70

– 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.

Note: A combination of high humidity (over 60%) and 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.

Note: Use only paper label sheets. Vinyl, pharmacy, and two‑sided labels are not supported.

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

http://support.lexmark.com.

When printing on labels:

• Use labels designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to verify that: – The labels can withstand temperatures up to 240°C (464°F) without sealing, excessive curling, wrinkling, or

releasing hazardous emissions.

– Label adhesives , face sheet (printable stock) , and topcoats can withstand up to 172‑kPa (25‑psi) 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 toner cartridge warranties.

• Do not use labels with exposed adhesive.

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

• Make sure the adhesive backing does not reach to the edge of the sheet. Zone coating of the adhesive should be

at least 1 mm (0.04 inch) away from edges. Adhesive material contaminates the printer and could void the warranty.

• If zone coating of the adhesive is not possible, then remove a 2‑mm (0.08‑inch) strip on the leading and driver edge,

and then use a non‑oozing adhesive.

• Portrait orientation is recommended, 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:

• Make sure the Paper Type is Card Stock.

• Select the appropriate Paper Texture setting.

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

Paper guidelines

Selecting the correct paper or specialty media reduces 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 120‑g/m2 (32‑lb) bond grain long paper. The multipurpose feeder can automatically feed paper weights up to 163‑g/m 60 g/m bond grain long paper. For paper smaller than 182 x 257 mm (7.2 x 10.1 inches), we recommended to use 90 g/m

(24 lb) or heavier paper.

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

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

Note: Two‑sided printing is supported only for 60–90‑g/m

(16–24‑lb) bond paper.

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; however, 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.

Page 72

Paper and specialty media guide 72

For 60–90‑g/m2 (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.

Selecting paper

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

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 to 90 g/m

(16 to 24 lb) weight paper.

• 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.

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 conscientious company, Lexmark supports the use of recycled paper produced specifically for use in laser (electrophotographic) printers.

While no blanket statement can be made that all recycled paper will feed well, Lexmark consistently tests papers that represent recycled cut size copier papers available on the global market. This scientific testing is conducted with rigor and discipline. Many factors are taken into consideration both separately and as a whole, including the following:

• Amount of post-consumer waste (Lexmark tests up to 100% post-consumer waste content.)

• Temperature and humidity conditions (Testing chambers simulate climates from all over the world.)

• Moisture content (Business papers should have low moisture: 4–5%.)

• Bending resistance and proper stiffness means optimum feeding through the printer.

• Thickness (impacts how much can be loaded into a tray)

Page 73

Paper and specialty media guide 73

• Surface roughness (measured in Sheffield units, impacts print clarity and how well toner fuses to the paper)

• Surface friction (determines how easily sheets can be separated)

• Grain and formation (impacts curling, which also influences the mechanics of how the paper behaves as it moves

through the printer)

• Brightness and texture (look and feel)

Recycled papers are better than ever; however, the amount of recycled content in a paper affects the degree of control over foreign matter. And while recycled papers are one good path to printing in an environmentally responsible manner, they are not perfect. The energy required to de-ink and deal with additives such as colorants and “glue” often generates more carbon emissions than does normal paper production. However, using recycled papers enables better resource management overall.

Lexmark concerns itself with the responsible use of paper in general based on life cycle assessments of its products. To gain a better understanding of the impact of printers on the environment, the company commissioned a number of life cycle assessments and found that paper was identified as the primary contributor (up to 80%) of carbon emissions caused throughout the entire life of a device (from design to end-of-life). This is due to the energy-intensive manufacturing processes required to make paper.

Thus, Lexmark seeks to educate customers and partners on minimizing the impact of paper. Using recycled paper is one way. Eliminating excessive and unnecessary paper consumption is another. Lexmark is well-equipped to help customers minimize printing and copying waste. In addition, the company encourages purchasing paper from suppliers who demonstrate their commitment to sustainable forestry practices.

Lexmark does not endorse specific suppliers, although a converter’s product list for special applications is maintained. However, the following paper choice guidelines will help alleviate the environmental impact of printing:

1 Minimize paper consumption.

2 Be selective about the origin of wood fiber. Buy from suppliers who carry certifications such as the Forestry

Stewardship Council (FSC) or the Program for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC). These certifications guarantee that the paper manufacturer uses wood pulp from forestry operators that employ environmentally and socially responsible forest management and restoration practices.

3 Choose the most appropriate paper for printing needs: normal 75 or 80 g/m

or recycled paper.

certified paper, lower weight paper,

Unacceptable paper examples

Test results indicate that the following paper types are at risk for use with laser printers:

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

• 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 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 testing)

• Paper weighing less than 60 g/m

• Multiple part forms or documents

(16 lb)

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.
