Storing paper

Use the following guidelines to avoid paper feeding problems and uneven print quality.

•Store paper in an environment where the temperature is approximately 21° C (70° F) and the relative humidity is 40%.

•Store cartons of paper on a pallet or shelf rather than directly on the floor.

•If you store individual packages of paper out of the original carton, make sure they rest on a flat surface so the edges do not buckle or curl.

•Do not place anything on top of paper packages.

Avoiding paper jams

The following hints can help you avoid paper jams:

•Do not remove paper trays while a job is printing. Wait for a Load Tray <x> or Ready message before you remove the tray.

•Use only recommended paper.

•Do not load wrinkled, creased, or damp paper.

•Flex, fan, and straighten paper before you load it.

•Do not overload the trays or the multipurpose feeder. Make sure the stack height does not exceed the maximum height indicated.

•Push all trays firmly into the printer after loading them.

•Make sure the guides in the trays are properly positioned for the size paper you have loaded.

•Do not send jobs to staple, hole punch, or offset for transparencies, labels, or card stock.

•We recommend that transparencies, labels, card stock, and envelopes not be sent to the optional mailbox or optional finisher. These specialty media types should be sent to the standard bin.

•If an optional finisher or mailbox is attached to your printer, make sure the printer and option are correctly aligned. Refer to the Setup Guide that came with your printer or option for alignment instructions.

•Make sure all cables that connect the high capacity feeder or finisher to the printer are correctly attached. Refer to the Setup Guide for more information.

•If a jam should occur, clear the entire paper path.

1454, 1464 specifications

The IBM 1454 and 1464 are notable computing systems that have played a significant role in the evolution of technology. Introduced in the 1960s, these systems were part of IBM's early foray into mini-computers, which aimed to provide more accessible computing power compared to their larger mainframe counterparts.

The IBM 1454, which was designed with an emphasis on flexibility and adaptability, featured a modular architecture that allowed for various configurations based on user needs. It supported multiple programming languages, which made it versatile for a range of applications, from scientific calculations to business data processing. One of its main features was the capability to interface with peripheral devices, showcasing an early attempt at creating a more interconnected computing environment.

On the other hand, the IBM 1464 was an advancement over the 1454, boasting enhanced processing capabilities and memory management. It was specifically engineered for real-time applications, which was becoming increasingly important in industries such as telecommunications and manufacturing. The 1464 incorporated improved input/output operations, enabling faster data processing and more efficient use of hardware resources. This made it suitable for complex tasks that required immediate processing and feedback.

Both models utilized IBM’s proprietary technologies, including a unique assembly language and input/output channels that optimized data flow between the CPU and peripherals. They were also equipped with magnetic core memory, which, while basic by today's standards, was a cutting-edge feature at the time, providing both speed and reliability.

In terms of characteristics, the IBM 1454 and 1464 were compact for their time, designed to fit into space-constrained environments such as laboratories and business offices. They also came with comprehensive documentation and support, reflecting IBM's commitment to customer service and user education.

In summary, the IBM 1454 and 1464 were pivotal in defining the landscape of mini-computing during their era. With their modular designs, robust processing capabilities, and support for real-time applications, they laid the groundwork for future advancements in computer technology. Their legacy continues to influence modern computing systems, making them critical milestones in the history of information technology.
