Selecting Print Materials
You can print on a variety of print materials, such as plain paper,
envelopes, labels, transparencies, and etc.. Always use print
materials that meet the guidelines for use with this machine.
See “Paper Specifications” on page C.6. To get the best possible
print quality, use only high-quality copier-grade paper.
When you choose print materials, consider the following:
• Desired outcome: The paper you choose should be
appropriate for your project.
• Size: You can use any size paper that fits easily within the
paper adjusters of the paper tray.
• Weight: Your machine supports paper weights as follows:
- 16 ~ 24 lb (60 ~ 90 g/m2) bond for the standard paper
tray (Tray 1) and optional paper tray (Tray 2)
- 16 ~ 43 lb (60 ~ 163 g/m2) bond for the Multipurpose
tray
• Brightness: Some papers are whiter than others and
produce sharper, more vibrant images.

NOTE: Using print materials that does not conform to the
specifications listed on page C.9 may cause problems that may
require service. This service is not covered by the warranty or
service agreements.

3.2 PAPER HANDLING
Guidelines for Paper and Special Materials
material, keep these guidelines in mind:
• Always use paper and other materials that conform with
the specifications listed under “Paper Specifications” on
page C.6.
• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn
paper can cause paper jams and poor print quality.
• Use only high quality copier grade paper for the best print
quality.
3
• Avoid paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or a
texture that is too smooth or too rough. Paper jams may
occur.
• Store paper in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use.
Place cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor. Do not
place heavy objects on top of the paper, whether it is
packaged or unpackaged. Keep it away from moisture, or
other conditions that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.
• Store unused materials at temperatures between 15 oC
and 30 oC (59 oF to 86 oF). The relative humidity should be
between 10 % and 70 %.
• During storage, you should use a moisture-proof wrap,
such as a plastic container or bag, to prevent dust and
moisture from contaminating your paper.
• Load special paper types one sheet at a time through the
Multipurpose tray to avoid paper jams.
• Only use materials specifically recommended for use in
laser printers.
• To prevent special materials, such as transparencies and
label sheets from sticking together, remove them as they
print out.
• For envelopes:
- Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp and well
creased folds.
- Do not use envelopes with clasps and snaps.
- Do not use envelopes with windows, coated lining, self-
adhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.
- Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes.
• For transparencies:
- Place them on a flat surface after removing them from
the machine.
- Do not leave them in the paper tray for long periods of
time. Dust and dirt may accumulate on them, resulting
in spotty printing.
PAPER HANDLING 3.3
- To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them
carefully.
- To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to
prolonged sunlight.
• For labels:
- Verify that their adhesive material can tolerate a fusing
temperature of 200 oC (392 o F) for 0.1 second.
- Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material
between them. Exposed areas can cause labels to peel
off during printing, which can cause paper jams.
Exposed adhesive can also cause damage to machine
components.
- Do not load a sheet of them through the machine more
than once. The adhesive backing is designed for one
pass through the machine.
- Do not use labels that are separating from the backing
sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled or otherwise damaged.
• Do not use Carbonless paper and Tracing paper. Use of
these types of paper could result in chemical smells and
could damage your machine.
Loading Paper
In the Standard Tray
Load the print material you use for the majority of your print
jobs in the standard tray.
plain paper.
You can purchase an optional paper tray (Tray 2) and attach it
below the standard tray to load an additional 250 sheets of
paper. See page B.5 for more information about installing the
optional Tray 2.
3.4 PAPER HANDLING
The paper level indicator on the front of the paper tray shows
the amount of paper currently left in the tray. When the tray is
empty, the indicator of the bar is completely lowered.
Paper full
3
Paper empty
To load paper, pull open the paper tray and load paper with the
side to be printed on face down.
You can load letterhead paper with the design side face down.
The top edge of the sheet with the logo should be placed at the
front of the tray.
For details about loading paper in the paper tray, see “Loading
Paper” on page 2.7.
NOTES
:
• If you experience problems with paper feed, place one sheet at a
time in the Multipurpose tray.
• You can load up to 150 sheets of previously printed paper. The
printed side should be facing up with an uncurled edge at the
front. If you experience problems with paper feed, turn the paper
around. Note that the print quality is not guaranteed.
PAPER HANDLING 3.5
In the Multipurpose Tray
The Multipurpose tray can hold several sizes and types of print
material, such as transparencies, postcards, note cards, and
envelopes. It is useful for single page printing on letterhead or
colored paper. You can load approximately 50 sheets of plain
paper, 5 envelopes, 5 transparencies, 5 sheets of card stock, or
5 labels at a time.
To load print material in the Multipurpose tray:
1
Lower the Multipurpose tray and unfold the paper support
extension, as shown.
2
If you are using paper, flex or fan the edge of the paper
stack to separate the pages before loading.
For transparencies, hold them by the edges and avoid
touching the print side. Oils from your fingers can cause
print quality problems.
3.6 PAPER HANDLING
3
Load the print material with the side to be printed on
facing up
.

For envelopes, load them with the flap side down and with
the stamp area on the top left side.
NOTES
:
• If envelopes jam while printing, try reducing the number of
envelopes in the Multipurpose tray.
• If you want to print on previously printed paper from the
Multipurpose tray, the printed side should be facing down with an
uncurled edge toward the machine. If you experience problems
with the paper feeding, turn the paper around.
4
Squeeze the width guide and adjust it to the width of the
print material without bending it.
5
After loading paper, you need to set the paper type and size
for the Multipurpose tray. See page 2.21 for copying and
faxing or page 4.6 for PC-printing.
NOTE: The settings made from the printer driver override the
settings on the control panel.
PAPER HANDLING 3.7

If you want the machine to stack the printed pages on the
rear output slot, open the rear door to use the rear output
slot.
NOTE: Make sure to open the rear output slot when you print on
transparencies. If not, they may tear while exiting the machine.
7
After printing, fold away the paper support extension and
close the Multipurpose tray.
Using the Manual Feed Mode
You can manually load a sheet of print material in the
Multipurpose tray if you select Manual Feed in the Source
option from the Paper tab when you change print settings to
print a document. For details about changing print settings, see
page 4.6. Manually loading paper can be helpful when you want
to check the print quality after each page is printed.
