    Printing
    This chapter covers tips for printing, how to print certain lists of information 
    from your printer, and how to cancel a job.
    Tips for Successful Printing
    Tips on Storing Print Media
    Store your print media properly. For more information, see Storing Print 
    Media on page  262.
    Avoiding Paper Jams
     NOTE: It is recommended that you try a limited sample of any print media you are 
    considering using with the printer before purchasing large quantities.
    By selecting appropriate print media an d loading it properly, you can avoid 
    paper jams. See the following instructions on loading print media:
    • Loading Print Media in the Multipurpose Feeder (MPF) on page  166
    • Loading Print Media in the Priority Sheet Inserter (PSI) on page  173
    • Avoiding Jams on page  277
    If you experience a jam, see Jam on page  304 for instructions.
    Sending a Job to Print
    To support all of the printer features, use the printer driver. When you choose 
    Print from a software program, a window  representing the printer driver 
    opens. Select the appropriate settings for the specific job you are sending to 
    print. Print settings selected from the driver have precedence over the default 
    menu settings selected from the operator panel or Tool Box.
    You may need to click  Preferences from the initial  Print box to see all of the 
    available system settings you can change.  If you are not familiar with a feature 
    in the printer driver window, open th e online Help for more information.
