4Install the toner cartridge.

5Load paper. (See "Loading paper" on page 5.4.)

6Make sure that all the cables are connected to the machine.

Notes

• When you move the machine, do not tilt or turn it upside down. Otherwise, the inside of the machine may be contaminated by toner, which can cause damage to the machine or bad printing quality.

When the printer driver is in the installation process, the driver detects the locale information of your operating system, and sets the paper size for your machine. If you use the different Windows locale, you must change the paper size of your machine for matching your commonly used paper size. Open the printer properties to change the paper size.

Altitude adjustment

The print quality is affected by atmospheric pressure, which is determined by the height of the machine above sea level. The following information will guide you on how to set your machine to the best print quality.
