Important

Do not use ink-jet printer paper because it may stick to the fusing unit and cause a paper misfeed.

When printing on OHP transparencies that have a print side, load them with the print side over on the bypass tray. Not taking this precaution may cause them to stick to the fusing unit and cause misfeeds.

Set the paper as described below.

Tray 1: Print side facing down

Bypass Tray: Print side facing up

Paper Feed Unit (Tray 2, Tray 3): Print side facing down

Print quality cannot be guaranteed if paper other than the ones recommended is used. For more information about recommended paper, contact your sales or service representative.

Do not use paper that has already been printed onto by other printers.

Storing Paper

Paper should always be stored properly. Improperly stored paper might re- sult in poor print quality, paper misfeeds, or printer damage. Recommenda- tions are as follows:

Avoid storing paper in humid areas.

Avoid exposing paper to direct sunlight.

Store on a flat surface.

Keep paper in the package in which the paper came.
