Printing guide

Get the most out of your printer by properly loading the trays and setting the types and sizes. Never mix media types within a tray.

Note: Paper Size cannot be adjusted when auto size sensing is enabled. Auto size sensing is enabled by default for printer trays, but is not available for the multipurpose feeder.

Load paper or other print media

To help prevent jams:

Flex all stacks of print media back and forth to loosen them, and then fan them before loading. Do not fold or crease the print media. Straighten the edges of the stack on a level surface.

Do not exceed the maximum stack height. Overfilling may cause jams.

Never remove paper trays while a print job is printing. It could damage the tray or the printer.

Loading 500-sheet trays

1Remove the tray.

2Squeeze the front guide lever and slide the guide to the front of the tray.

3Squeeze the side guide lever and slide the guide to the correct position for the size paper you are loading.

4Flex the sheets back and forth to loosen them, and then fan them.

5Place the paper against the back left corner of the tray, print side down.

6Squeeze the front guide lever and slide the guide until it firmly touches the stack of paper.

7Reinstall the tray.

8If you are loading a different type of media than was previously loaded in the tray, change the Paper Type setting for that tray on the operator panel. See “Set Paper Type and Paper Size” on page 2.

Loading the multipurpose feeder

1Open the multipurpose feeder.

2Squeeze the paper

guide lever and slide the guide all the way toward the front of the printer.

3 Flex the sheets back and forth to loosen them, and then fan them.

4 Arrange the stack of print media correctly for the size, type, and print method you are using.

5Place the print media, print side up, along the left side of the multipurpose feeder, and then push it in as far as it will easily go. Do not force the media.

6Squeeze the paper guide lever and slide the guide until it lightly touches the side of the stack.

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.
