may result in a paper jam.
zPre-punched paper can include more paper dust than standard paper. Your multifunction printer may
require more frequent cleaning and feed reliability may not be as good as standard paper.
zWeight guidelines for pre-punched paper are the same as non-punched paper.
Transparencies
You can load up to 75 sheets of transparencies in the multipurpose feeder for a single print job. Before buying
large quantities of any print media, Dell recommends trying a sample first.
When printing on transparencies:
zSet the paper type to Transparency from the printer driver to avoid damaging your multifunction
printer.
zUse transparencies designed specifically for laser printers. Do not use regular transparencies.
Transparencies must be able to withstand temperatures of 205°C (401°F) without melting, discoloring,
offsetting or releasing hazardous emissions.
zAvoid getting fingerprints on the transparencies. This may result in poor print quality.
zBefore loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together.
zNon-white transparencies are not supported with the multifunction printer.

Selecting Transparencies

The multifunction printer can print directly on transparencies designed for use in laser printers. Print quality
and durability depend on the transparency used. Before buying large quantities of any print media, Dell
recommends trying a sample first.
The paper type setting for the multipurpose feeder should be set to Transparency to help prevent jams. (See
"Tray Settings" for detailed information about this setting.) Check with the manufacturer or vendor to
determine whether your transparencies are compatible with laser printers that reach temperatures as high as
205°C (401°F). Only use transparencies that are able to withstand these temperatures without melting,
discoloring, offsetting, or releasing hazardous emissions.
Envelopes
You can load a stack of envelopes up to 15 mm (0.59 in.) in height in the multipurpose feeder for a single
print job. Depending on the type of envelope and how they have been stored, loading a large quantity of
envelopes, within the maximum range, may not feed into the multifunction printer. If this happens, reduce the
number of envelopes in the stack. Depending on the choice of envelopes, it is possible to expect variable
levels of light wrinkling. Before buying large quantities of any print media, Dell recommends trying a sample
first. See "Loading the Multipurpose Feeder" for instructions on loading an envelope.
