Changing the Paper Type

Always set the Paper Type to Transparency when printing transparencies. The printer then adjusts the fuser tempera- ture and engine speed to ensure the best possible print quality. When you print transparencies, you will experi- ence a slight delay before printing starts as the printer warms the fuser to the higher temperature. Transparencies then print at approximately 3 ppm.

When you load transparencies in the multipurpose feeder, the printer recognizes the type of media you have loaded and automatically makes these adjustments. However, waiting for the printer to sense the presence of transparen- cies may further delay the job. We recommend always selecting the correct Paper Type before sending a job to print.
