Paper and Other Media Supported by Your Printer

OHP transparencies

Load only one OHP transparency at a time onto the bypass tray.

When loading OHP transparencies onto the bypass tray, set the printer to the Thick Paper mode using the operation panel. ⇒ P.125 “Making Printer Settings with the Operation Panel”

Be careful not to touch the print side of the OHP transparencies. Other- wise, the print side gets dirty or damaged, and results in poor print quality.

When printing on an OHP transparency that has a print side, load it face down onto the bypass tray.

Translucent paper

Load only one translucent paper at a time onto the bypass tray.

When printing on translucent paper that has a print side, load it face down onto the bypass tray.

Adhesive labels

Load only one adhesive label at a time onto the bypass tray.

Use adhesive labels in which the whole side can be printed on.

Avoid using adhesive labels having exposed glue.

If the print side is coated, the print quality might be reduced, as the toner might not fuse well.

Envelopes

When printing on envelopes, use the bypass tray or the optional envelope feeder.

Even when the optional envelope feeder is not installed, you can specify the sizes for the envelopes for tray 2 using the operation panel. However,

the envelopes cannot be loaded into tray 2 without the envelope feeder.

To use the envelope feeder, the installation of the optional paper unit is re-

 

quired.⇒ P.16 “Type 1 Printer: Installing the Envelope Feeder Type 2000”, P.21

For the Type 1 printer, you can load up to 10 envelopes (72 – 90 g/m2, 19 – 24 lb) onto the bypass tray at a time, without forcibly pressing them. How-

ever, make sure that the envelopes are not damp, and that the top of the stack is not higher than the limit mark on the side guide. ⇒ P.84 “Type 1 printer: loading envelopes onto the bypass tray”
