Loading print media into the priority feeder 51 Print media tasks and tips 5Close the paper cover. Loading print media into the priority feeder The priority feeder is located at the front of the printer, just above Tray 1. Use the priority feeder to make quick runs of print media types or sizes that are not currently loaded in Tray 1. For information on acceptable print media and quantity for use in the priority feeder, see Types of print media on page 46. Using only specified print media helps prevent jams and print quality problems. 1Adjust the guides to the width of the print media. 2Place selected print media, with side to be printed face up, at the center of the priority feeder, resting on the Tray 1 paper cover. 3Push selected print media into the printer until the print media stops. Note:Do not force print media into the feeder. Forcing media causes jams. Insert envelopes with flap side down and return address first. The stamp area will feed through last. Hold transparencies by the edges, and avoid touching the print side. Oil from fingers can affect print quality. Load letterhead face up, top of sheet first. Downloaded From ManualsPrinter.com Manuals
Preventing jams 52 Print media tasks and tips Preventing jams Avoid most jams by correctly loading print media. Do not load wrinkled, creased, or damp print media. Never mix media types within a tray. Flex, fan, and straighten paper before loading. Do not exceed maximum stack height. Make sure guides and backstop are positioned lightly against the loaded print media. Before loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together. Do not use envelopes that: –Have excessive curl –Are stuck together –Are damaged in any way –Contain windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossments –Have metal clasps, string ties, or metal folding bars –Have postage stamps attached –Have exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed position –Are self-sealing Use only recommended print media. See the Card Stock & Label Guide available on our Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com for more information about which print media provides optimum results for your printing environment. See the Card Stock & Label Guide for detailed information prior to purchasing large quantities of customized print media. Downloaded From ManualsPrinter.com Manuals
Clearing jams 53 Print media tasks and tips Clearing jams When a jam occurs, the printer stops, and the Error light on the operator panel blinks. To determine the location of the jam, view the secondary light sequences (see Operator panel codes for the Lexmark E120 on page 12 or Operator panel codes for the Lexmark E120n on page 28). Prepare the printer for jam removal by opening the paper support out and removing all printed pages from the output bin. Then, follow these steps to clear the entire paper path. 1Open the rear door by sliding the door release button to the right. 2Remove any lodged print media from the paper path. Warning:When rear door is open, be careful not to touch the attached roller. Touching the roller can cause contamination and affect print quality. Do not leave the rear door open for an extended amount of time. Exposure to light will damage the blue drum of the long-life photoconductor kit and affect print quality.
