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.

The top edge of the sheet with the logo should be placed at the front of the tray. Notes • If you experience problems with paper feed, place one sheet at a time in the manual feed. • You can load 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.

Load the paper with the side to be printed on facing up. 3 Adjust the manual tray paper width guides to the width of the paper. Do not force too much, or the paper will bend, which could result in a paper jam or skew. 4 When you print a document, set the paper source to Manual Feeder and select the appropriate paper size and type in the software application. See the Software Section. 5 Print a document. 6 Press the Cancel button. The printer picks up the print media and prints.
