5.3.1 Special Considerations When Printing Transparencies

Observe the following requirements when printing on transparencies:
Transparencies are usually fed manually. If you are feeding
transparencies from a cassette, be sure they are high-quality
transparencies and meet the specifications listed in Table 5–4.
Remove transparencies from the rear output tray as each one is printed
to prevent them from sticking to each other.
