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 Bypass Tray
Selecting Print Materials
Always use print materials that meet the guidelines for use with
this machine. Using print materials that are not recommended
may cause paper jams or print quality problems.

Guidelines for Paper and Special Materials
When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special
materials, keep these guidelines in mind:
• 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. Avoid paper with
embossed lettering, perforations, or texture that is too
smooth or too rough. Paper jams may occur.
• Store paper in its ream wrapper until 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.
• During storage, you should use moisture-proof wrap, such as
any plastic container or bag, to prevent dust and moisture
from contaminating your paper.
• Always use paper and other materials that conform with the
specifications listed under “Paper Specifications” on page A.6.
• 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,
self-adhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.
- DO NOT use damaged or poorly made envelopes.
3
• 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.
• Place transparencies on a flat surface after removing them
from the machine.
• Do not leave transparencies in the paper tray for long periods
of time. Dust and dirt may accumulate on them resulting in
spotty printing.
• To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle
transparencies and coated paper carefully.
• To avoid fading, do not expose the printed transparencies to
prolonged sunlight.
• Store unused materials at temperatures between 15
o
30
C (59 oF to 86 oF). The relative humidity should be
between 10 % and 70 %.
• Verify that your labels’ adhesive material can tolerate fusing
temperature of 200
o
C (392o F) for 0.1 second.

P
APER HANDLING

• Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material
between labels. 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 labels 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.

OTE
:
Do not use Carbonless paper and Tracing paper. They
could make smell of chemicals and damage your printer.
Selecting an Output Location
The machine has two output locations; the rear output slot (face

To use the front output tray, make sure that the rear cover is

• 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.
Printing to the Front Output Tray
The front output tray collects printed paper face-down, in
correct order. The tray should be used for most print jobs.

Printing to the Rear Output Slot
Using the rear output slot, paper comes out of the machine
face up.
Printing from the Bypass tray to the rear output slot provides the
straight paper path. Using the rear output slot might improve
the output quality with the following:
• envelopes
• labels
• small custom-sized paper
• postcards
• transparencies

:
• If you experience problems with paper feed, place the paper in
the Bypass tray.
• You can load up to 150 sheets of
previously printed paper. The printed
side should be facing up with an
uncurled edge at the top side. If you
experience problems with paper
feed, turn the paper around. Note
that the print quality is not
guaranteed.
Using the Bypass Tray
Use the Bypass tray 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 127mm(3.0 by 5.0 in.) and the maximum size is 216 by
356mm(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 x 14 in.), the largest size acceptable, and weighing between
16 lb and 43 lb.
N
OTES
:
• Always load only the print materials specified in the
Specifications on page A.6 to avoid paper jams and print quality
problems.
• Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes and labels before
loading them into the Bypass tray.
• When you print on 76mm X 127mm (3 X 5 in.) sized media with
loading into the tray, open the rear output tray.

transparencies. If not, they may tear while exiting the machine.
For envelopes, load a sheet with the flap side face down

Using Overlays
What is an Overlay?
An overlay is text and/or images stored in 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 do not need
to load preprinted letterhead paper in the machine. 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.

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

Cleaning Your Machine
To maintain the print quality, follow the cleaning procedures
below each time the toner cartridge is replaced or if print quality
problems occur.
N
OTES
:
• While cleaning the inside of the printer, be careful not to touch
the transfer roller (located underneath the toner cartridge). Oil
from your fingers can cause print quality problems.
• Cleaning the cabinet of the printer with surfactants containing
large amounts of alcohol, solvent or other strong substances can
discolour or crack the cabinet.
• Keep the machine away from flammable liquids, gases, and
aerosols. A fire or an electric shock might occur.
Cleaning the Outside
Clean the cabinet of the printer with a soft, lint-free cloth. You
can dampen the cloth slightly with water, but be careful not to
be let any water drip onto the printer or inside of it.
Cleaning the Inside
During the printing process, paper, toner and dust particles can
accumulate inside the machine. This buildup can cause print
quality problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Cleaning
the inside of the machine clears or reduces these problems.
1
Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for
the machine to cool down.
2
Open the front cover and pull the toner cartridge out,
lightly pushing it down.
