Labels  
A sheet of labels consists of a face sheet (the printing surface), adhesive, and  
a carrier sheet:  
The face sheet must follow the plain paper specification.  
The face sheet surface must cover the entire carrier sheet, and no adhe-  
sive should come through on the surface.  
You can print continuously with label sheets. However, this could affect the  
media feed, depending on the media quality and printing environment. If  
problems occur, stop the continuous printing and print one sheet at a time.  
Format label data within your application. Try printing your data on a sheet of  
plain paper first to check placement. Check your application documentation  
for more information on printing labels.

Do not fan transparencies before loading them. Resulting static elec-  
tricity may cause printing errors.  
If you touch the face of the transparencies with your bare hands, print  
quality may be affected.  
Keep the printer path clean. Transparencies are especially sensitive to  
a dirty media path. If there are shadows on either the top or the bottom  
of the sheets, see chapter 6, “Maintaining the Printer” .  
ꢀ"  
Remove transparencies as soon as possible from the output tray to  
avoid static buildup.  
You can print continuously with transparencies. However, this could affect the  
media feed, depending on the media quality, static buildup, and printing envi-  
ronment.  
Format the information to be printed on the transparencies within your appli-  
cation. Try printing your data on a sheet of plain paper first to check place-  
ment.  
ꢀ"  
If you have problems feeding 50 sheets, try loading only 1–10 sheets  
at a time. Loading a large number of transparencies at one time may  
cause static buildup, thus causing feeding problems.

What Is the Guaranteed Imageable (Printable) Area?  
The printable area on all media sizes is  
up to 4 mm (0.157") from the edges of  
the media.

Each media size has a specific image-  
able area, the maximum area on which  
the printer can print clearly and without  
distortion.  
Printable  
Area  
This area is subject to both hardware  
limits (the physical media size and the  
margins required by the printer) and  
software constraints (the amount of  
a
a = 4 mm (0.157")  
memory available for the full-page frame buffer). The guaranteed imageable  
(printable) area for all media sizes is the page size minus 4 mm (0.157") from  
all edges of the media.  
ꢀ"  
When printing in color on legal-size media, the bottom margin is  
10.4 mm (0.409").

Page Margins  
Margins are set through your application. Some applications allow you to set  
custom page sizes and margins while others have only standard page sizes  
and margins from which to choose. If you choose a standard format, you may  
lose part of your image (due to imageable area constraints). If you can cus-  
tom-size your page in your application, use those sizes given for the imagea-  
ble area for optimum results.

Loading Media  
How do I load media?  
Take off the top and bottom sheets of a  
ream of paper. Holding a stack of approx-  
imately 200 sheets at a time, fan the  
stack to prevent static buildup before  
inserting it in a tray.  
ꢀ"  
Do not fan transparencies.  
Note  
Although this printer was designed for printing on a wide range of  
media types, it is not intended to print exclusively on a single media  
type except plain paper. Continuous printing on media other than plain  
paper (such as envelopes, labels, thick stock, or transparencies) may  
adversely affect print quality or reduce engine life.  
When refilling media, first remove any media remaining in the tray. Stack it  
with the new media, even the edges, then reload it.  
Do not mix media of different types and sizes, as this will cause media mis-  
feeds.

Output Tray  
All printed media is output to the face-down output tray on top of the printer.  
This tray has a capacity of approximately 200 sheets (A4/Letter) of 80 g/m2  
(22 lb) paper.  
ꢀ"  
ꢀ"  
If the media is stacked too high in the output tray, your printer may  
experience media misfeeds, excessive media curl, or static buildup.  
Remove transparencies as soon as possible from the output tray to  
avoid static buildup.  
Media Storage  
How do I store media?  
Keep media on a flat, level surface in its original wrapper until it is time to  
load it.  
Media that has been stored for a long time out of its packaging may dry up  
too much and cause misfeeding.  
If media has been removed from its wrapper, place it in its original pack-  
aging and store in a cool, dark place on a level surface.  
Avoid moisture, excessive humidity, direct sunlight, excessive heat (above  
35°C [95°F]), and dust  
Avoid leaning against other objects or placing it in an upright position.  
Before using stored media, do a trial printing and check print quality.

About Toner Cartridges  
Your printer uses four toner cartridges: black, yellow, magenta, and cyan.  
Handle the toner cartridges carefully to avoid spilling toner inside the printer  
or on yourself.  
ꢀ"  
ꢀ"  
Install only new toner cartridges in your printer. If a used toner car-  
tridge is installed, the indicator message will not clear and the supplies  
status in the Status Display will not be updated.  
The toner is nontoxic. If you get toner on your skin, wash it off with  
cool water and a mild soap. If you get toner on your clothes, lightly  
dust them off as best as you can. If some toner remains on your  
clothes, use cool, not hot water, to rinse the toner off.  
CAUTION  
If you get toner in your eyes, wash it out immediately with cool water  
and consult a doctor.

Keep toner cartridges:  
In their packaging until you’re ready to install them.  
In a cool, dry location away from sunlight (due to heat).  
The maximum storage temperature is 35° C (95° F) and the maximum  
storage humidity is 85% (noncondensing). If the toner cartridge is moved  
from a cold place to a warm, humid place, condensation may occur,  
degrading print quality. Allow the toner to adapt to the environment for  
about one hour before use.  
Level during handling and storage.  
Do not hold, stand or store  
cartridges on their ends or turn  
them upside down; the toner  
inside the cartridges may  
become caked or unequally  
distributed.  
Away from salty air and corrosive gases such as aerosols.

Maintaining the Printer  
CAUTION  
Read all caution and warning labels carefully, making sure to follow any  
instructions contained in them. These labels are located on the inside of  
the printer’s covers and the interior of the printer body.  
Handle the printer with care to preserve its life. Abuse may cause damage  
and void your warranty. If dust and paper scraps remain on the inside or out-  
side of the printer, printer performance and print quality will suffer, so the  
printer should be cleaned periodically. Keep the following guidelines in mind.  
WARNING!  
Turn off the printer, unplug the power cord, and disconnect all interface  
cables before cleaning. Do not spill water or detergent into the printer;  
otherwise the printer will be damaged and an electric shock may occur.  
CAUTION  
The fuser unit is hot. When the right side cover is opened, the  
fuser unit temperature drops gradually (one hour wait time).  
Be careful when cleaning the inside of the printer or removing media mis-  
feeds, as the fuser unit and other internal parts may be very hot.  
Do not place anything on top of the printer.  
Use a soft cloth to clean the printer.  
Never spray cleaning solution directly on the printer’s surface; the spray  
could penetrate through the air vents of the printer and damage the inter-  
nal circuits.  
Avoid using abrasive or corrosive solutions or solutions that contain sol-  
vents (such as alcohol and benzene) to clean the printer.  
Always test any cleaning solution (such as mild detergent) on a small  
inconspicuous area of your printer to check the solution’s performance.  
Never use sharp or rough implements, such as wire or plastic cleaning  
pads.  
Always close the printer’s covers gently. Never subject the printer to vibra-  
tion.  
Do not cover the printer immediately after using it. Turn it off and wait until  
it cools down.

Do not leave the printer’s covers open for any length of time, especially in  
well-lit places; light may damage the drum cartridge.  
Do not open the printer during printing.  
Do not tap media stacks on the printer.  
Do not lubricate or disassemble the printer.  
Do not tilt the printer.  
Do not touch the electrical contacts, gears, or laser devices. Doing so  
may damage the printer and cause the print quality to deteriorate.  
Keep media in the output tray at a minimum level. If the media is stocked  
too high, your printer may experience media misfeeds and excessive  
media curl.  
Keep the printer level to avoid  
toner spillage.  
When lifting the printer, grasp  
the areas shown in the figure.  
If you get toner on your skin,  
wash it off with cool water and a mild soap.  
CAUTION  
If you get toner in your eyes, wash it out immediately with cool water  
and consult a doctor.  
Make sure any parts removed during cleaning are replaced before you  
plug in the printer.

Preventing Media Misfeeds  
Make sure that...  
Media matches the printer specifications.  
Media is flat, especially on the leading edge.  
The printer is on a hard, flat, level surface.  
You store media in a dry location away from moisture and humidity.  
You remove transparencies from the output tray immediately after printing to  
avoid static buildup.  
You always adjust the media guides in Tray 1 after inserting the media (a  
guide that is not properly adjusted can cause poor print quality, media mis-  
feeds, and printer damage).  
You load the media printing-side up in the tray (many manufacturers place an  
arrow on the end of the wrapper to indicate the printing side).  
Avoid...  
Media that is folded, wrinkled, or excessively curled.  
Double feeding (remove the media and fan the sheets—they may be sticking  
together).  
Fanning transparencies since this causes static.  
Loading more than one type/size/weight of media in a tray at the same time.  
Overfilling the trays.  
Allowing the output tray to overfill (the output tray has a 200-sheet capacity—  
misfeeding may occur if you allow media to accumulate more than 200  
sheets at one time).  
Allowing the output tray to fill with more than a few transparencies.

Clearing Media Misfeeds  
To avoid damage, always remove misfed media gently, without tearing it. Any  
pieces of media left in the printer, whether large or small, can obstruct the  
media path and cause further misfeeds. Do not reload media that has misfed.  
Note  
The image is not fixed on the media before the fusing process. If you  
touch the printed surface, the toner may stick to your hands, so be  
careful not to touch the print face when removing the misfed media.  
Make sure not to spill any toner inside the printer.  
CAUTION  
Unfused toner can dirty your hands, clothes, or anything else it gets on.  
If you accidentally get toner on your clothes, lightly dust them off as  
best as you can. If some toner remains on your clothes, use cool, not  
hot water, to rinse the toner off. If toner gets on your skin, wash it off  
with cool water and a mild soap.  
CAUTION  
If you get toner in your eyes, wash it out immediately with cool water  
and consult a doctor.  
If, after clearing the media misfeed, the misfeed message in the control panel  
window persists, open and close the printer’s covers. This should clear the  
misfeed message.
