Printing Transparencies

Transparencies can be printed from all trays. They should be printed on one side only. For best results, use only recommended Xerox transparencies. See the Recommended Media List at www.xerox.com/office/6300_6350support.

To order paper, transparencies, or other specialty media, contact your local reseller or go to www.xerox.com/office/supplies.

Caution: Damage caused by using unsupported paper, transparencies, and other specialty media is not covered by the Xerox warranty, service agreement, or Total Satisfaction Guarantee. The Total Satisfaction Guarantee is available in the United States and Canada. Coverage may vary outside these areas; please contact your local representative for details.

Transparency Guidelines

Remove all paper before loading transparencies in the tray.

Do not load more than 25 sheets in Tray 1 (MPT). Do not load more than 200 sheets in Trays 2–5. Overloading the tray may cause the printer to jam.

Handle transparencies by the edges using both hands to avoid fingerprints and creases, which may cause poor print quality.

Fan transparencies before loading in the paper tray.
