Overview of Basic Steps

1.Load paper in the tray. For information about loading trays, see the Loading Media chapter of this guide, or go to Getting Started/Loading Media on the User Documentation CD- ROM.

2.If prompted by the control panel, either confirm the paper type and size or change it as required.

3.From the application, access the Print dialog box.

4.If desired, select printing options in the printer driver.

For information about accessing and using the driver, see "Obtaining the Printer Driver" on page 5-6.

For information about specifying print options, see "Adjusting Printing Options" on page 5-6.

5.Send the job to the printer from the application’s Print dialog box.

Factors Affecting Printing Performance

Many factors affect a print job. They include the print speed (stated in number of pages per

minute), the media used, download time, and system processing time.

The computer download time and system processing time are affected by several factors including:

System memory

Connection type (network or USB)

Network operating system

System configuration

File size and type of graphics

Computer speed

Note

Additional system memory (RAM) may improve overall printer functions, but will not increase the pages per minute (ppm) ability of the system.
