Notes • When loading OHP transparencies, take care not to load them upside
down. Doing so may cause a malfunction.
• It is recommended to place one sheet at a time.
• Make sure to fan OHP transparencies every time before printing. Leaving OHP transparencies loaded in the bypass tray may cause them to stick together and result in a misfeed.
• If multiple OHP transparencies are fed at the same time, load them one by one.
• When printing on OHP transparencies, remove the transparencies one by one as they are output.
• 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.
Envelope
Item Description
Supported paper tray Bypass tray
Duplex supported size None
Notes
• The number of envelopes that can be printed in one minute is approximately half that of plain paper.
• Paper can be loaded only up to the lower of the two paper limit marks of the tray.
• If printed envelopes come out badly creased, load the envelopes in the opposite direction. Also, configure the printer driver to rotate the print object 180 degrees. For details about changing the loading orientation, see the printer driver Help.
• Environmental factors can degrade the print quality on both recommended and non-recommended envelopes.
• If envelopes are severely curled after printing, flatten them by bending them back against the curl.
• After printing, envelopes sometimes have creases along their long edges and toner smear on their unprinted sides. Their print images might also be blurred. When printing large, black-solid areas, striping can occur as a result of the envelopes overlapping.
• To correctly specify the length of an envelope whose flap opens along its short edge, be sure to include the open flap when measuring.

• Fan envelopes, and then align their edges before loading.
• When fanning envelopes, make sure they are not stuck together. If they are stuck together, separate them.
• When fanning envelopes, make sure the envelope flaps are not stuck together. If they are stuck together, separate them.
• Before loading envelopes, flatten them out so that their curl does not exceed that shown in the illustration below.
• If the curl is severe, flatten out the envelopes using your fingers, as shown in the illustration below.

Unsupported Types of Paper

Avoid using the following paper as they are not supported by this machine.
• Paper meant for an ink-jet printer
• Bent, folded, or creased paper
• Curled or twisted paper
Paper and Other Media
• Torn paper
• Wrinkled paper
• Damp paper
• Dirty or damaged paper
• Paper that is dry enough to emit static electricity
• Paper that has already been printed onto, except a preprinted letterhead.
Malfunctions are especially likely when using paper printed on by other than a laser printer (e.g. monochrome and color copiers, ink-jet printers, etc.)
• Special paper, such as thermal paper, aluminum foil, carbon paper and conductive paper
• Paper that is heavier or lighter than the specified limitations
• Paper with windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossing
• Adhesive label paper on which the adhesive under-layer or base paper is exposed
• Paper with clips or staples
• Do not use ink-jet printer paper because it may stick to the fusing unit and cause a paper jam.
• Do not use paper that has already been printed onto by other printers.
• When loading paper, take care not to touch the surface of the paper.
• Even supported types of paper may cause paper jams or malfunctions if the paper is not in good condition.

Paper Storage Precautions

Paper should always be stored properly. Improperly stored paper might result in poor print quality, paper jams, or printer damage.
Recommendations are as follows:
• Avoid storing paper in areas that are excessively cold, hot, humid, or dry.
• Avoid exposing paper to direct sunlight.
• Store on a flat surface.
• Keep paper in its original packaging.

Printable Area

The following diagrams show the areas of paper that the machine can print onto.
Be sure to set the print margins correctly using the settings of the application in which it was created.

Loading Paper

This describes how to load paper into the paper tray and bypass tray.
• Do not pull out the paper tray forcefully. If you do, the tray might fall and cause an injury.
• When loading paper, take care not to trap or injure your fingers.

Loading Paper in Tray 1

The following example explains loading procedure for the standard paper tray (Tray 1).
• Before printing on paper other than envelopes, make sure to pull up the levers on the machine rear, inside the rear cover. Leaving the levers lowered can cause print quality problems when printing on paper other than envelopes.
• Make sure paper is not stacked above the limit mark inside the tray. Misfeeds might occur.
• After loading paper in the tray, specify the paper type and size using the control panel to avoid printing problems. This machine does not detect the paper size automatically.
• Do not mix different types of paper in the same paper tray.
• Do not move the side paper guides forcefully. Doing so can damage the tray.
• Do not move the end paper guide forcefully. Doing so can damage the tray.
• When inserting the tray, make sure it is not slanted. Inserting it at a slant can damage the machine.
• Curled paper may jam. Straighten curled paper before loading.
1. Pull out tray 1 carefully with both hands.
