Transparencies

• To avoid damaging the printer, use only 

transparencies designed for use in laser 
printers.

• Transparencies used in the printer must be able 

to withstand 195° C (383° F), the printer’s 
fusing temperature.

• Place them on a flat surface after removing 

them from the printer.

• Do not leave them in the paper tray for long 

periods of time. Dust and dirt may accumulate 
on them, resulting in spotty printing.

• To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, 

handle them carefully.

• To avoid fading, do not expose printed 

transparencies to prolonged sunlight.

• Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled, 

curled, or have any torn edges.

Labels

• To avoid damaging the printer, use only labels 

designed for use in laser printers.

• When selecting labels, consider the following 

factors:
- Adhesives: The adhesive material should be 

stable at 195° C (383° F), the printer’s fusing 
temperature.

- Arrangement: Only use labels with no 

exposed backing between them. Labels can 
peel off sheets that have spaces between the 
labels, causing serious jams.

- Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with 

no more than 13 mm (5 inches) of curl in any 
direction.

- Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, 

bubbles, or other indications of separation.

• Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive 

material between labels. Exposed areas can 
cause labels to peel off during printing, which 
can cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can 
also cause damage to printer components.

• Do not run a sheet of labels through the printer 

more than once. The adhesive backing is 
designed for only a single pass through the 
printer.

• Do not use labels that are separating from the 

backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or 
otherwise damaged.

Card stock or 
custom-sized 
materials

• Do not print on media smaller than 76 mm 

(3 inches) wide or 127 mm (5 inches) long.

• In the software application, set margins at least 

6.4 mm (0.25 inches) away from the edges of 
the material.

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 500 sheets of 75 g/m

2

 (20 lb) plain 

paper. 

You can purchase optional trays and attach them below the standard tray 
to load an additional 500 sheets of paper for each tray. You can attach 
up to three additional trays. For order information for optional trays, see 
page 7.1.

The paper level indicator on the front of the tray 1 and the optional trays 
shows the amount of paper currently left in the tray. When the tray is 
empty, the indicator of the bar is completely lowered.

Preprinted 
paper

• Letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant 

ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release 
hazardous emissions when subjected to the 
printer’s fusing temperature of 195° C (383° F) 
for 0.1 second.

• 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.
