Type			Guidelines
Transparencies	•	To avoid damaging the printer, use only
		transparencies designed for use in laser
		printers.
	• Transparencies used in the printer must be able
		to withstand the machine’s fusing temperature.
		Check your machine’s specification to view the
		fusing temperature, see page 11.1.
	•	Place them on a flat surface after removing
		them from the printer.
	•	Do not leave them in the paper tray for long
		periods of time. Dust and dirt may accumulate
		on them, resulting in spotty printing.
	•	To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints,
		handle them carefully.
	•	To avoid fading, do not expose printed
		transparencies to prolonged sunlight.
	•	Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled,
		curled, or have any torn edges.
Labels	•	To avoid damaging the printer, use only labels
		designed for use in laser printers.
	•	When selecting labels, consider the following
		factors:
		-	Adhesives: The adhesive material should be
			stable at 180° C (356° F), the printer’s fusing
			temperature.
		-	Arrangement: Only use labels with no
			exposed backing between them. Labels can
			peel off sheets that have spaces between the
			labels, causing serious jams.
		- Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with
			no more than 13 mm (5 inches) of curl in any
			direction.
		-	Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles,
			bubbles, or other indications of separation.
	•	Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive
		material between labels. Exposed areas can
		cause labels to peel off during printing, which
		can cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can
		also cause damage to printer components.
	•	Do not run a sheet of labels through the printer
		more than once. The adhesive backing is
		designed for only a single pass through the
		printer.
	•	Do not use labels that are separating from the
		backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or
		otherwise damaged.
Card stock or	•	Do not print on print media smaller than 76 mm
custom-sized		(3 inches) wide or 127 mm (5 inches) long.
materials	•	In the software application, set margins at least
		6.4 mm (0.25 inches) away from the edges of
		the material.

Type		Guidelines
Preprinted	•	Letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant
paper		ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release
		hazardous emissions when subjected to the
		printer’s fusing temperature for 0.1 second.
		Check your machine’s specification to view the
		fusing temperature, see page 11.1.
	•	Letterhead ink must be non-flammable and
		should not adversely affect printer rollers.
	•	Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a
		moisture-proof wrapping to prevent changes
		during storage.
	•	Before you load preprinted paper, such as
		forms and letterhead, verify that the ink on the
		paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet ink
		can come off preprinted paper, reducing print
		quality.

Loading paper

Load the print media you use for the majority of your print jobs in the tray 1. The tray 1 can hold a maximum of 250 sheets of 20 lb plain paper.

You can purchase an optional tray (tray 2) and attach it below the standard tray to load an additional 250 sheets of paper. For order information for an optional tray, see 7.1.

The paper level indicator on the front of the tray 1 and the optional tray 2 shows the amount of paper currently left in the tray. When the tray is empty, the indicator of the bar is completely lowered.
