Safety instructions  
This printer has been carefully designed to give years of  
safe, reliable performance. As with all electrical equip-  
ment, however, there are a few basic precautions that  
should be taken to avoid personal injury or damaging  
the printer:  
Do not use the printer near water, or spill liquid  
of any kind into it.  
Make sure that the power source matches the rat-  
ing listed on the back of the printer. If you are not  
sure, check with your dealer or with your local  
power company.  
Read this user’s guide carefully and save it for  
future reference.  
This printer has an earthed plug as a safety fea-  
ture and will only connect to an earthed outlet. If  
this plug cannot be connected to a power outlet,  
then it is possible that the power outlet is of the  
older, non-earthed type. Contact an electrician to  
have the power outlet replaced. Do not use an  
adapter to defeat the earthing.  
Read and follow all warning and instruction  
labels on the printer itself.  
Disconnect the printer before cleaning. Use only  
a damp cloth. Do not use liquid or aerosol clean-  
ers to clean the printer.  
Place the printer on a firm, solid surface. If the  
printer is placed on something unsteady, it may  
fall and become damaged or injure someone. If  
the printer is placed on a soft surface, such as a  
rug, sofa, or bed, the vents may become blocked  
causing the printer to overheat.  
To avoid damaging the power cable, do not put  
anything on it or place it where it will be walked  
on. If the cable becomes damaged or frayed,  
replace it immediately.  
If an extension cable or power strip is being used  
with the printer, make sure that the total of the  
amperage rating required by all the equipment is  
less than the rating of the extension cable or  
power strip. The total ratings of all equipment  
Do not put the printer on or near a heat source,  
such as a radiator or heat register. Keep it out of  
direct sunlight. Allow enough room around the  
printer for adequate ventilation and easy access.

plugged into the outlet should not exceed 13  
amperes.  
The printer has been dropped, or the cabinet is  
damaged.  
The power outlet into which the printer is con-  
nected must remain accessible at all times.  
The printer does not function normally when fol-  
lowing the operating instructions.  
Opening any cover may expose hot surfaces.  
These are clearly labelled. Do NOT touch them.  
Do not insert anything into the ventilation slots  
on the printer; you could get a shock or cause a  
fire.  
Aside from the routine maintenance described in  
this user’s guide, do not try to service the printer  
yourself. Opening a cover may expose you to  
shocks or other hazards.  
Do not make any adjustments other than those  
outlined in this user’s guide as damage may be  
caused to the printer.  
If anything happens that indicates that the printer is not  
working properly or has been damaged, disconnect the  
printer from the power source and contact your dealer.  
These are some of the things to look for:  
The power cable or plug is frayed or damaged.  
Liquid has been spilled into the printer, or it has  
been exposed to water.

Toner cartridge and image drum  
handling  
Emergency first aid  
IF TONER IS SWALLOWED: Induce vomit-  
ing and seek medical attention. Never attempt to  
induce vomiting or give anything by mouth to a  
person who is unconscious.  
Leave unused toner cartridges and image drum  
units in their packages until needed. When  
replacing a toner cartridge or image unit, reuse  
the packaging to dispose of the old toner cartridge  
or image drum unit.  
IF TONER IS INHALED: Take the person to an  
open area for fresh air. Seek medical attention.  
Do not expose the toner cartridges and image  
drum units to light for more than five minutes.  
Never expose the green drum (inside the image  
drum unit) to direct sunlight.  
IF TONER GETS IN THE EYES: Flush eyes  
with large quantities of cool, NOT cold, water for  
a minimum of 15 minutes keeping eyelids open  
with fingers. Seek medical attention.  
Always hold the image drum unit by the ends —  
never by the middle. Never touch the green drum  
inside the image drum unit.  
To avoid damage to the image drum unit, always  
use original toner cartridges.  
Exercise care when removing the toner cartridge.  
Do not let it touch your clothing or porous mate-  
rials. The toner powder causes permanent stains.  
Small amounts of toner spilled on skin or cloth-  
ing can be readily removed with soap and cold  
water. Using heated water will make removing  
the stain much more difficult.

Paper  
Avoid using paper with perforations, cut outs and  
ragged edges.  
Paper and envelope types  
The manufacturer of this printer recommends the fol-  
lowing guidelines when selecting paper and envelopes  
for use in your printer:  
Do not use envelopes with windows or metal  
clasps.  
Do not use envelopes with self sealing flaps.  
Avoid using damaged or curled envelopes.  
Paper and envelopes should be stored flat and  
away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat  
sources.  
Transparencies and adhesive labels  
Use a smooth finished paper such as copier or  
laser type paper with a Sheffield (smoothness)  
rating of 250 or less. If in doubt, please ask your  
paper supplier.  
The manufacturer of this printer recommends the fol-  
lowing guidelines when selecting transparencies and  
adhesive labels for use in your printer:  
Use envelopes designed for use in laser type  
printers.  
Always use manual feed.  
Media must designed for use in laser printers or  
photocopiers. Do not use media designed for use  
in colour laser printers and photocopiers.  
The use of heavily laid or textured paper will  
seriously impact on the life of the image drum.  
Do not use very smooth, shiny/glossy paper.  
Do not use heavily embossed headed paper.  
Must be able to withstand 200°C for 0.1 sec.  
Labels should cover entire carrier sheet.  
Avoid printing on both sides and putting paper  
through the printer twice.  
Carrier sheet or adhesive must not be exposed to  
any part of the printer.

Loading paper  
Manual feed  
1. Set the left paper guide to the marker for the  
required paper size and move the right guide to a  
position slightly wider than your paper width.  
Use manual feed for envelopes, transparencies and  
other print media as follows:  
1. Adjust the paper guides (1) to the width of the  
media being used.

2. Insert the paper so that it is up against and flush  
with the left paper guide.  
2. Insert the media squarely into the paper guides to  
prevent skewing.  
3. Adjust the right paper guide to fit snugly, but not  
tightly against the edge of the paper.  
Note:  
Insert envelopes with flap side down and to the  
left. Insert letterheaded paper face up with top  
of page first.  
4. Lift the paper slightly out of the tray (about 1 cm)  
and allow it to drop back into place under its own  
weight. Do not force it down.  
Paper output  
Note:  
If using letterhead paper, insert the letterhead  
face down with the top first.

Print quality adjustments  
The process used to fuse (fix) the printed image to the  
paper involves a mixture of pressure and heat. Too  
much heat will cause lightweight paper to crease or curl  
and corrugations in transparencies. Too little heat will  
cause the image not to fuse fully into heavyweight  
paper.  
The print quality for different types of paper is set by  
default according to the paper size. If thinner or thicker  
paper is being used, the thickness setting can be adjust-  
ed as follows:  
The settings for the various types of paper are given in

Toner  
ing roller with toner. The first toner cartridge normally  
produces between 500 and 700 pages after installation.  
When to replace toner cartridge  
After the message Toner Low displays, the printer will  
print about 100 more pages, then display the message  
Toner Empty and stop printing. Printing will resume af-  
ter a new toner cartridge has been installed.  
CAUTION:  
The use of original toner or toner cartridges is highly  
recommended. Using compatible or counterfeit toner or  
toner cartridges can seriously damage the printer.  
Toner cartridge life  
How long your toner cartridge lasts depends on the  
print density: the percentage of the page that prints  
black. A typical letter has 3% to 5% print density;  
graphics usually have higher density. Higher print den-  
sity means toner is used up faster. At 5% print density,  
a toner cartridge will print an average of 1500 pages.  
Remember, this is only an average: actual results may  
vary.  
The first toner cartridge installed in a new printer has to  
fill the image drum reservoir and saturate the develop-

Image drum  
When to replace image drum  
CAUTION:  
Never expose the image drum unit to light for more than 5  
minutes. Never expose the image drum unit to direct  
sunlight. Always hold the image drum unit by the ends.  
Never touch the surface of the green drum inside the image  
drum unit.  
As the image drum approaches its end of life, a Change  
Drum message appears. Change the image drum when  
the print quality becomes faint or begins to deteriorate.  
Image drum life  
The life of an image drum depends on a number of fac-  
tors, including temperature and humidity, the type of  
paper used, and the number of pages per job.  
2. Remove the new image drum from the package  
and remove the protective sheet (1) from the  
image drum (2).  
The image drum should last about 10,000 pages contin-  
uous printing and up to 8,000 pages at 3 pages per job  
(without power save). These numbers are approximate  
because different number of pages are printed each time  
and the environmental conditions and the paper type  
used may vary.

Fonts  
What is a font?  
Using fonts  
A font refers to a set of printable characters in a partic-  
ular typeface of a specific size (e.g. 12 point) and style  
(e.g. roman, bold or bold-italic). In computer printing,  
however, this term has been used in a wider context to  
refer to all sizes and styles of a particular typeface. In  
printers, fonts may be divided into two basic types: bit-  
map fonts and scalable (or outline) fonts.  
The easiest way to select fonts is through the software  
program being used. Software programs send printer  
commands that consist of a set of codes, one for each of  
the font characteristics. If the software program has the  
appropriate driver, fonts can be specified and the neces-  
sary commands will be sent to the printer. For more de-  
tailed information on how to select fonts in a software  
program, refer to the documentation for that software  
program.  
Bitmap fonts are made up of a pattern of dots (at the  
printer resolution) to form the image of each printable  
character. These are of a fixed size and scaling makes  
them look ragged.  
Scalable fonts are stored as a set of mathematical  
curves. At print time, the printer uses the stored curves  
to make up a bitmap of each character required, at the  
required size in the required style, at the full printer res-  
olution. Such fonts are therefore said to be scalable and  
do not appear ragged at enlarged sizes.
