Compliance and Conformity

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

• The use of a non-shielded interface cable with the referenced device
is prohibited.

CAUTION

— The changes or modifications not expressly approved by

the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.

This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules and RSS-Gen of IC
Rules.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions; (1) this device may
not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference,
including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

* The above warning is valid only in the United States of America.

Interface connectors

IMPORTANT Be sure to power off the printer before connecting or

disconnecting an interface cable. For protection against static
electricity discharge to the printer's internal electronics through the
interface connector(s), cover any interface connector that is not in use
with the protective cap supplied.

Note Use shielded interface cables.

CDRH Regulations

The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration implemented regulations for laser products on
August 2, 1976. These regulations apply to laser products manufactured
after August 1, 1976. Compliance is mandatory for products marketed in
the United States. A label indicating compliance with the CDRH
regulations must be attached to laser products marketed in the United
States.

Canadian Department of Communications Compliance
Statement

This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.

Avis de conformité aux normes du ministère des
Communications du Canada

Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003
du Canada.

Energy Saving Control Function

The device comes equipped with a Low Power Mode where energy
consumption is reduced after a certain amount of time elapses since the
device was last used, as well as a Sleep where printer functions remain
in a waiting state but power consumption is still reduced to a minimum
when there is no activity with the device within a set amount of time.

Low Power Mode

The device automatically enters Low Power Mode when 1 minute has
passed since the device was last used. The amount of time of no activity
that must pass before Low Power Mode is activated may be lengthened.
For more information refer to Low Power Timer (Low Power Mode timer
timeout time) on page 4-72.

Sleep

The device automatically enters Sleep when 15 minutes have passed
since the device was last used. The amount of time of no activity that must
pass before Sleep is activated may be lengthened. For more information,
refer to Sleep Timer (Sleep timer timeout time) on page 4-72.

Automatic 2-Sided Print Function

This device includes 2-sided printing as a standard function. For example,
by printing two 1-sided originals onto a single sheet of paper as a 2-sided
print, it is possible to lower the amount of paper used. For more
information refer to Duplex (Duplex printing) on page 4-40.

Printing in duplex mode reduces paper consumption and contributes to
the conservation of forest resources. Duplex mode also reduces the
amount of paper that must be purchased, and thereby reduces cost. It is
recommended that machines capable of duplex printing be set to use
duplex mode by default.

Resource Saving - Paper

For the preservation and sustainable use of forest resources, it is
recommended that recycled as well as virgin paper certified under
environmental stewardship initiatives or carrying recognised ecolabels,

which meet EN 12281:2002

*1

or an equivalent quality standard, be used.

This machine also supports printing on 64 g/m² paper. Using such paper
containing less raw materials can lead to further saving of forest
resources.

*1: EN12281:2002 "Printing and business paper - Requirements for copy
paper for dry toner imaging processes"

Your sales or service representative can provide information about
recommended paper types.

Environmental benefits of "Power Management"

To reduce power consumption when idle, this machine is equipped with a
power management function that automatically activates energy-saving
mode when the machine is idle for a certain period of time.

Although it takes the machine a slight amount of time to return to READY
mode when in energy-saving mode, a significant reduction in energy
consumption is possible. It is recommended that the machine be used
with the activation time for energy-saving mode set to the default setting.

General Guidelines

The machine is designed to print on standard copier paper (the type used
in ordinary dry copier machines), but it can also accept a variety of other
types of paper within the limits specified below.

Selection of the right paper is important. Using the wrong paper can result
in paper jams, curling, poor print quality, and paper waste, and in extreme
cases can damage the machine. The guidelines given below will increase
the productivity of your office by ensuring efficient, trouble-free printing
and reducing wear and tear on the machine.

Paper Availability

Most types of paper are compatible with a variety of machines. Paper
intended for xerographic copiers can also be used with the machine.

There are three general grades of paper: economy, standard, and
premium. The most significant difference between grades is the ease with
which they pass through the machine. This is affected by the smoothness,
size, and moisture content of the paper, and the way in which the paper
is cut. The higher the grade of paper you use, the less risk there will be of
paper jams and other problems, and the higher the level of quality your
printed output will reflect.

Differences between paper from different suppliers can also affect the
machine’s performance. A high-quality printer cannot produce high­quality results when the wrong paper is used. Low-priced paper is not
economical in the long run if it causes printing problems.

Paper in each grade is available in a range of basis weights (defined
later). The traditional standard weights are 60 to 120 g/m² (16 to 32
pounds).

Paper Specifications

The following table summarizes the basic paper specifications. Details

Selecting the Right Paper

This section describes the guidelines for selecting paper.

Condition

Avoid using paper that is bent at the edges, curled, dirty, torn, embossed,
or contaminated with lint, clay, or paper shreds.

Use of paper in these conditions can lead to illegible printing and paper
jams, and can shorten the life of the machine. In particular, avoid using
paper with a surface coating or other surface treatment. Paper should
have as smooth and even a surface as possible.

Composition

Do not use paper that has been coated or surface-treated and contains
plastic or carbon. The heat of fusing can cause such paper to give off
harmful fumes.

Bond paper should contain at least 80 % pulp. Not more than 20 % of the
total paper content should consist of cotton or other fibers.

Paper Sizes

Cassettes and the MP tray are available for the paper sizes listed in the
table below. For details, including the paper sizes for the paper feeder
(Optional paper feeder PF-520, PF-530) refer to Cassette (1 to 4) Size
(Setting the cassette paper size) on page 4-32.

The dimensional tolerances are ±0.7 mm (±0.0276 inches) for the length
and width. The angle at the corners must be 90° ±0.2°.

Handling Paper

Smoothness

The paper should have a smooth, uncoated surface. Paper with a rough
or sandy surface can cause voids in the printed output. Paper that is too
smooth can cause multiple feeding and fogging problems. (Fogging is a
gray background effect.)

Basis Weight

Basis weight is the weight of paper expressed in grams per square meter
(g/m²). Paper that is too heavy or too light may cause feed errors or paper
jams as well as premature wear of the product. Uneven weight of paper,
namely uneven paper thickness may cause multiple-sheet feeding or
print quality problems such as blurring because of poor toner fusing.

Paper Weight Equivalence Table

The paper weight is listed in pounds (lb) and metric grams per square
meter (g/m²). The shaded part indicates the standard weight.

Thickness

The paper used with the machine should be neither extremely thick nor
extremely thin. If you are having problems with paper jams, multiple
feeds, and faint printing, the paper you are using may be too thin. If you
are having problems with paper jams and blurred printing the paper may
be too thick.

Moisture Content

Moisture content is defined as the percent ratio of moisture to the dry
mass of the paper. Moisture can affect the paper’s appearance, feed
ability, curl, electrostatic properties, and toner fusing characteristics.

The moisture content of the paper varies with the relative humidity in the
room. When the relative humidity is high and the paper absorbs moisture,
the paper edges expand, becoming wavy in appearance. When the
relative humidity is low and the paper loses moisture, the edges shrink
and tighten, and print contrast may suffer.

Wavy or tight edges can cause jams and alignment anomalies. The
moisture content of the paper should be 4 to 6 %.

To ensure correct moisture content, it is important to store the paper in a
controlled environment. Some tips on moisture control are:

• Store paper in a cool, dry location.

• Keep the paper in its wrapping as long as possible. Re-wrap paper
that is not in use.

• Store paper in its original carton. Place a pallet etc. under the carton
to separate it from the floor.

• After removing paper from storage, let it stand in the same room as
the machine for 48 hours before use.

• Avoid leaving paper where it is exposed to heat, sunlight, or damp.

Paper Grain

When paper is manufactured, it is cut into sheets with the grain running
parallel to the length (long grain) or parallel to the width (short grain).
Short grain paper can cause feeding problems in the machine. All paper
used in the machine should be long grain.

Other Paper Properties

Porosity: Indicates the density of paper fiber.

Stiffness: Limp paper may buckle in the machine, resulting in paper

jams.

Curl: Most paper naturally tends to curl one way if left unpacked.

Electrostatic discharge: During the printing process the paper is

electrostatically charged to attract the toner. The paper must be able to
release this charge so that printed sheets do not cling together in the
Output Tray.

Whiteness: The contrast of the printed page depends on the whiteness
of the paper. Whiter paper provides a sharper, brighter appearance.

Quality control: Uneven sheet size, corners that are not square, ragged
edges, welded (uncut) sheets, and crushed edges and corners can cause
the machine to malfunction in various ways. A quality paper supplier
should take considerable care to ensure that these problems do not
occur.

Packaging: Paper should be packed in a sturdy carton to protect it from
damage during transport. Quality paper obtained from a reputable
supplier is usually correctly packaged.

Note When using coated paper, be aware that the sheets will

stick together in a very humid environment.

Note You might see the printer emitting steam in the area around

the top tray if you use damp paper, but it is safe to continue
printing.

3-7

Handling Paper

Special Paper

The following types of special paper can be used:

Use paper that is sold specifically for use with copiers or printers (heat­fusing type). When using transparencies, labels, thin paper, envelopes,
postcards, or thick paper, feed the paper from the MP tray. For details,
refer to Paper Source (Selecting the paper feed source) on page 4-38.

Since the composition and quality of special paper vary considerably,
special paper is more likely than white bond paper to give trouble during
printing. No liability will be assumed if moisture and so forth given off
during printing on special paper causes harm to the machine or operator.

Transparency

Transparencies must be able to withstand the heat of fusing during the
printing process. The recommended transparency product is 3M CG3700
(Letter, A4).

The table below lists the specifications for transparency:

Handling Paper

3-8

To prevent printing problems, feed transparencies into the printer one
sheet at a time from the MP tray. Always load the transparencies vertically
(with the long edge towards the printer).

If the transparencies have rough edges on the back, it may cause a paper
jam. Remove the rough edges, reverse the sides or feed the sheet from
the opposite edge.

When unloading transparencies (e.g., for clearing jams), hold them
carefully by the edges to avoid leaving fingerprints on them.

Labels

Labels must be fed from the MP tray or optional paper feeder PF-530.

The basic rule for printing on adhesive labels is that the adhesive must
never come into contact with any part of the machine. Adhesive paper
sticking to the drum or rollers will damage the machine.

Label paper has a structure comprising of three layers, as shown in the
diagram. The top sheet is printed on. The adhesive layer consists of
pressure-sensitive adhesives. The carrier sheet (also called the linear or
backing sheet) holds the labels until used. Due to the complexity of its
composition, adhesive-backed label paper is particularly likely to give
printing problems.

Adhesive label paper must be entirely covered by its top sheet, with no
spaces between the individual labels. Labels with spaces in between are
liable to peel off, causing serious paper jam problems.

Some label paper is manufactured with an extra margin of top sheet
around the edge. Do not remove the extra top sheet from the carrier sheet
until after printing is finished.

The table below lists the specifications for adhesive label paper.

Handling Paper

Postcards

Fan the stack of postcards and align the edges before loading them in the
MP tray. Make sure the postcards you are going to set are not curled.
Feeding curled postcards may cause paper jams.

Some postcards have rough edges on the back (those are created when
the paper is cut). In this case, put the postcards on a flat place and rub
the edges with, for example, a ruler to smooth them.

Envelopes

Envelopes should always be fed from the MP tray, with the print-side up.
Envelopes must be fed from the MP tray or optional paper feeder PF-530.

Since the composition of an envelope is more complex than that of
ordinary paper, it is not always possible to ensure consistent printing
quality over the entire envelope surface.

Normally, envelopes have a diagonal grain direction. Refer to Paper
Grain on page 3-6. This direction can easily cause wrinkles and creases
when envelopes pass through the printer. Before purchasing envelopes,
make a test print to check whether the printer accepts the envelope.

• Do not use envelopes that have an encapsulated liquid adhesive.

• Avoid a long printing session for envelopes only. Extended envelope
printing can cause premature printer wear.

• If jams occur, try setting a lesser number of envelopes on the MP tray.

• To avoid jams caused by curled envelopes, stack no more than 10
printed envelopes on the top tray.

If you use thick paper quite often, we recommend to use optional
paper feeder PF-530.

3-11

Handling Paper

Colored Paper

Colored paper should satisfy the same conditions as white bond paper,
refer to Paper Specifications on page 3-2. In addition, the pigments used
in the paper must be able to withstand the heat of fusing during the
printing process (up to 200 °C or 392 °F).

Preprinted Paper

Preprinted paper should satisfy the same conditions as white bond paper,
refer to Paper Specifications on page 3-2. The preprinted ink must be able
to withstand the heat of fusing during the printing process, and must not
be affected by silicone oil. Do not use paper with any kind of surface
treatment, such as the type of paper commonly used for calendars.

Recycled Paper

Select recycled paper that meets the same specifications as the white
bond paper except for whiteness, refer to Paper Specifications on page
3-2.

Coated Paper

Coated paper is created by treating the surface of the base paper with a
coating that provides higher printing quality than plain paper. Coated
paper is used for particularly high quality printing.

The surface of high-quality or medium-quality paper is coated with special
agents that improve ink adhesion by making the paper surface smoother.
These agents are used either to coat both sides of the paper or just one
side. The coated side appears slightly glossy.

IMPORTANT When printing on coated paper in very humid environ­ments, ensure that the paper is kept dry as moisture may cause
sheets to stick together when they are fed into the printer.

Paper Type Indicators (Optional paper feeder PF-530)

If you are going to load non-standard paper in the optional paper feeder
PF-530, fold the provided paper type indicator sheet into thirds so that the
appropriate paper type symbol faces out and is at the top, and insert it into
the cassette's display folder.

• Envelopes

• Thick paper

• Labels

• Coated paper

The blank sheet can be used to write in any name or symbol.
When writing in a name or symbol on the bottom part of the sheet,
invert it with respect to the top part.

Note If you use colored paper quite often, we recommend to use

optional paper feeder PF-530.

Note Before purchasing recycled paper, test a sample on the

machine and check that the printing quality is satisfactory.
