Lexmark X544 Manual

Paper types supported by the printer
Notes:
Your printer model may have a 650‑sheet duo drawer, which consists of a 550‑sheet tray and an integrated
100‑sheet multipurpose feeder. The 550‑sheet tray part of the 650‑sheet duo drawer supports the same paper
as the optional 550‑sheet tray. The integrated multipurpose feeder supports different paper sizes, types, and
weights.
The optional 550‑sheet tray is not available for all printer models.

Tips on using envelopes
Print samples on the envelopes being considered for use before buying large quantities.
When printing on envelopes:
Feed envelopes from the manual feeder or optional multipurpose feeder.
Set the Paper Type to Envelope, and select the envelope size.
Use envelopes designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure the
envelopes can withstand temperatures up to 200°C (392°F) without sealing, wrinkling, curling excessively, or
releasing hazardous...

Do not print within 1 mm (0.04 in.) of the edge of the label, of the perforations, or between die‑cuts of the label.
Be sure adhesive backing does not reach to the sheet edge. Zone coating of the adhesive at least 1 mm (0.04 in.)
away from edges is recommended. Adhesive material contaminates the printer and could void the warranty.
If zone coating of the adhesive is not possible, remove a 1.6 mm (0.06 in.) strip on the leading and driver edge, and
use a non‑oozing adhesive.

the flash drive. All other printer functions are unavailable.
Before printing an encrypted .pdf file, enter the file password from the printer control panel.
You cannot print files for which you do not have printing permissions.
