I
MPORTANT
The mains lead for this machine is fitted with a standard (BS 1363) 13 amp plug and
has a 13 amp fuse. When you change or examine the fuse, you must re-fit the correct
13 amp fuse. You then need to replace the fuse cover. If you have lost the fuse cover,
do not use the plug until you have another fuse cover.
Please contact the company from where the machine was purchased.
The 13 amp plug is the most widely used type in the UK and should be suitable.
However, some buildings (mainly old ones) do not have normal 13 amp plug sockets.
You need to buy a suitable plug adaptor. Do not remove the moulded plug.
W
ARNING
If you cut off the moulded plug, get rid of it straight away.
You cannot rewire the plug and you may receive an electric shock if you plug
it into a socket.
I
MPORTANT WARNING
The wires in the mains lead have the following color code:
: You must earth this machine.
• Green and Yellow: Earth
• Blue: Neutral
• Brown: Live
If the wires in the mains lead do not match the colors marked in your plug, do the
following:
You must connect the green and yellow wire to the pin marked by the letter “E” or by
the safety `Earth symbol' or colored green and yellow or green.
You must connect the blue wire to the pin which is marked with the letter “N” or
colored black.
You must connect the brown wire to the pin which is marked with the letter “L” or
colored red.
You must have a 13 amp fuse in the plug, adaptor, or at the distribution board.

PAPER HANDLING
This chapter introduces you to the basics of selecting
print materials and loading them into your machine.
This chapter includes:
• Selecting Print Materials
• Selecting an Output Location
• Loading Paper in the Paper Tray
• Using the Manual Feeder
Page 47
Selecting Print Materials
You can print on a variety of print materials, such as plain paper,
envelopes, labels, transparencies, and so on. Always use print
materials that meet the guidelines for use with this machine.
See “Paper Specifications” on page A.5. To get the best possible
print quality, use only high-quality copier-grade paper.
When you choose print materials, consider the following:
• Desired outcome: The paper you choose should be
appropriate for your project.
• Size: You can use any size paper that fits easily within the
paper adjusters of the paper tray.
• Weight: Your machine supports paper weights as follows:
- 16 ~ 24 lbs (60 ~ 90 g/m
- 16 ~ 43 lbs (60 ~ 163 g/m
• Brightness: Some papers are whiter than others and produce
sharper, more vibrant images.
• Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the paper affects
how crisp the printing looks on the paper.

Guidelines for Paper and Special Materials
When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special
material, keep these guidelines in mind:
• Always use paper and other materials that conform with the
specifications listed under “Paper Specifications” on page A.5.
• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper
can cause paper jams and the poor print quality.
• Use only high quality copier grade paper for the best print
quality.
• Avoid paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or a
texture that is too smooth or too rough. Paper jams may
occur.
• Store paper in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use.
Place cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor. Do not
place heavy objects on top of the paper, whether it is
packaged or unpackaged. Keep it away from moisture, or
other conditions that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.
• Store unused materials at temperatures between 15
o
30
C (59 oF to 86 oF). The relative humidity should be
between 10 % and 70 %.
• During storage, you should use moisture-proof wrap, such as
any plastic container or bag, to prevent dust and moisture
from contaminating your paper.
• Load special paper types one sheet at a time.
• Only use materials specifically recommended for use in laser
printers.
• To prevent special materials, such as transparencies and
label sheets from sticking together, remove them as they
prints out.
•For envelopes:
o
C and
2
- Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp, well
creased folds.
- Do not use envelopes with clasps and snaps.
- Do not use envelopes with windows, coated lining, selfadhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.
- Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes.
• For transparencies:
- Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the
machine.
- Do not leave them in the paper tray for long periods of time.
Dust and dirt may accumulate on them resulting in spotty
printing.
P
APER HANDLING
2.3
Page 49
- To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them and
coated paper carefully.
- To avoid fading, do not expose the printed transparencies to
prolonged sunlight.
•For labels:
- Verify that their adhesive material can tolerate fusing
temperature of 208
o
C (406.4o F) for 0.1 second.
- Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material
between them. Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off
during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed
adhesive can also cause damage to machine components.
- Do not load a sheet of them through the machine more than
once. The adhesive backing is designed for one pass
through the machine.
- Do not use labels that are separating from the backing
sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.
• Do not use
Carbonless
paper and
Tracing
paper. Use of
these types of paper could result in chemical smells and could
damage your printer.
Selecting an Output Location
The machine has two output locations; the rear output slot (face
up) and the front output tray (face down).
To use the front output tray, make sure that the rear cover is
closed. To use the rear output slot, open the rear cover.
N
OTES
:
• If paper coming out of the front output tray has problems, such
as excessive curl, try printing to the rear output slot.
• To avoid paper jams, do not open or close the rear cover while
the machine is printing.

APER HANDLING
Page 50
Printing to the Front Output Tray
The front output tray collects printed paper face-down in the
order in which it was printed. The tray should be used for most
print jobs.
If you use paper which is not long enough to reach the front
output tray, use the jam cover.
To u se th e ja m c ov e r:

carefully until the cover is holding down the tab. Then you
can move your hand and finish lowering the cover.
Be careful not to pinch your fingers!
N
OTE
:
• If you continuously print many pages, the surface of the output
tray may become hot. Be careful not to touch the surface, and
especially keep children away from the surface.
• The front output tray can hold up to 50 sheets of paper. Remove
the pages so that the tray is not overloaded.

sizes of paper; see page A.6.
To load paper, pull open the paper tray and load paper with the

You can load letterhead paper with the design side face down.
The top edge of the sheet with the logo should be placed at the

Using the Manual Feeder
Use the manual feeder to print transparencies, labels, envelopes
or postcards in addition to making quick runs of paper types or
sizes that are not currently loaded in the paper tray.
Postcards, 3.5 by 5.83 in.(index) cards and other custom-sized
materials can be printed with this printer. The minimum size is
76 by 127 mm (3.0 by 5.0 in.) and the maximum size is 216 by
356 mm (8.5 by 14 in.).
Acceptable print materials are plain paper with sizes ranging
from 100 x 148 mm (3.9 x 5.8 in.) to Legal, 216 x 356 mm (8.5

lb and 32 lb.
N
OTES
:
• Always load only the print materials specified in the
Specifications on page A.5 to avoid paper jams and print quality
problems.
• Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes and labels before
loading them into the manual feeder.
• When you print on 76 mm X 127 mm (3 X 5 in.) sized media with

Using Overlays
What is an Overlay?
An overlay is text and/or images stored on the computer hard
disk drive (HDD) as a special file format that can be printed on
any document. Overlays are often used to take the place of preprinted forms and letterhead paper. Rather than using
preprinted letterhead, you can create an overlay containing the
exact same information that is currently on your letterhead. To
print a letter with your company’s letterhead, you need only tell
the machine to print the letterhead overlay on your document.
Creating a New Page Overlay
To use a page overlay, you must create a new page overlay
containing your logo or image.
1
Create or open a document containing text or an image for
use in a new page overlay. Position the items exactly as
you wish them to appear when printed as an overlay. If
needed, save the file for later use.
