Notes:
¥When you print, select the correct paper size and source in your application.
¥Depending on paper thickness, the maximum capacity may be reduced.
Selecting Paper Types and Feed Source
One of the most important things you can do to assure the best
possible print quality from your printer is to select the correct paper.
Your printer produces letter quality output on most plain bond paper,
including cotton bond and photocopying paper; it does not require
special paper. However, the print quality varies with different paper
types. Be sure to test a small quantity of paper before you purchase a
large quantity.
You can print on any of the following paper types:

2. Prepare the print material for loading.
¥ For paper and envelopes:
- Flex paper or fan envelopes back and forth. Do not fold or
crease the paper. Straighten the edges on a level surface.
Note: If envelopes jam while printing, try reducing the number of envelopes
in the automatic feeder.
Loading a Stack of Paper
You can stack paper, envelopes, card stocks, labels, or transparencies
in the automatic paper feeder to feed automatically. The automatic
feeder can hold a maximum of 150 sheets of plain paper, and 10
envelopes or other print media. The maximum capacity may be
reduced, depending on the thickness of the paper type selected.
Note: If you experience feeding problems, try printing item at a time from
the manual feeder. See page 9.
1. Pull the extender on the automatic feeder up until it stops.

3. Load the print material in the automatic feeder. Do not load too
much print material. Do not different paper types. See the
following directions on how to load each type of print material.
¥ Load paper or transparencies with the print side facing you.
¥ For transparencies:
- Hold the transparencies by the edges and avoid touching the
print side.
- Fan the stack of transparencies to prevent feeding failures. Be
careful not to scratch or leave fingerprints on the print sides.
Place the print side facing you.

Paper Handling
¥ Load envelopes with the flap side facing away from you. The stamp
area is on the bottom right corner. The end of the envelope with the
stamp area enters the feeder first.
¥ Load letterhead paper with the design facing you. The top edge of
the sheet with the logo should enter the printer first.
LETTERHEAD
Notes:
¥ Do not feed stamped envelopes. The stamp is shown for placement only.
¥ Never use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated linings, or
self-stick adhesives.
¥ These envelopes may severely damage the printer.

The manual feeder is in front of the automatic feeder.
1. If necessary, open the face-up stacker. See page 10.
2. Load the print material in the manual feeder and adjust the paper
guides to the width of the print material.

4. Before starting your print job, make sure you select the correct
paper size and feed source in your application.
5. Press and hold the button on the operator panel for about 2
seconds. Printing will start.
6. If you have more than one page to print, the Printer Status Window
on the computer screen alerts you to feed the next sheet each time
the printer is ready to print the next page. Press and hold the
button for about 2 seconds until the printer pulls in the paper and
starts printing.

Paper Handling
Paper Guidelines
When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special media,
keep these guidelines in mind:
¥ Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can
cause paper jams and poor print quality.
¥ Use cut-sheet paper only. You cannot use multipart paper.
¥ Use only high quality, copier grade paper. Avoid paper with
embossed lettering, perforations, or texture that is too smooth or too
rough.
¥ Colored paper should be of the same high quality as white
photocopy paper. The pigments must withstand the printerÕs fusing
temperature of 392 oF (200 oC) for 0.1 second without deterioration.
Do not use paper with a colored coating that was added after the
paper was produced.
¥ Pre-printed forms must be printed with non-flammable, heat-
resistant inks that do not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous
emissions when subjected to the printerÕs approximately 392 oF (200
oC) fusing temperature for 0.1 seconds.
¥ Store paper in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use it. 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.
¥ During storage, moisture-proof wrap (any plastic container or bag)
should be used to prevent dust and moisture from contaminating
your paper.
¥ Always use paper and other media that conform with those listed
under ÔSpecificationsÕ on page 33.
¥ When you choose 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 linings, self-stick
adhesives, or other synthetic materials.
- DO NOT use damaged or poorly made envelopes.
- DO NOT use envelopes with affixed stamps.
