Types of Paper to avoid

BExtremely smooth or shiny paper or paper that is
highly textured

thermography. These materials may transfer onto
the fusing roller and cause damage. Any pre-

200°C (392°F) for 0.1 second.
BDamaged or wrinkled paper, or paper with
irregularities such as tabs, staples, etc.

Duplex printing

Manual duplex printing is possible by using the multi-
purpose tray. Automatic duplex printing is possible
by installing the optional 2nd cassette feeder with
ADU. However, you should not expect the same
print quality and reliability that you get with single-
sided printing. We strongly recommend that you
follow the guidelines below.
Notes for manual duplex printing:
BDo not load more than 50 sheets in the multi-
purpose tray.
BBefore loading paper in the multi-purpose tray,
adjust it so that the edges of the media are lightly
touching the media guides of the multi-purpose
tray.
BUse multi-purpose tray for second side printing.
Specifications
For detailed information on specifications, refer to
“Specifications” of the Operating Instructions
installed on your computer.
Notes for manual / automatic duplex printing:
BIt is strongly suggested to use color laser bond
paper.
BBefore printing on the first side, set the unprintable
area [at least 15 mm (0.59) in length] on the top
of paper (see below.)
BWhen printing on the first side, avoid printing
photograph or graphic in solid color to prevent
paper jamming. It may cause a damage to the
printer.
