PRINT MEDIA
Print media that can be used with your printer includes standard 
copier bond paper, certain types of envelope and certain types of 
transparency.
PAPER
The best type of paper to choose is standard 80-90g/m² bond 
paper designed for use in plain paper copiers and laser type 
printers. Pre-printed stationery, such as letterhead paper can 
also be used as long as the pre-printed parts can withstand a 
combination of heat and pressure. Experience will determine the 
suitability or otherwise of particular pre-printed stationery.
Avoid using paper that is damaged in any way, such as folded, 
perforated, torn or stapled sheets, and avoid feeding the same 
sheet twice to print on both sides. Also avoid using very glossy or 
heavily embossed paper.
If the printed page shows signs of fading, streaking or erratic 
marks, the problem may be cleared by generating a drum 
cleaning page as follows:
1.Start the Status Monitor for the printer.
2.Select the Printer Setup tab and click on the Printer 
Menu button. 
3.Select the Test Print tab and click on the Cleaning button.
4.Using the Manual Feed Tray insert a sheet of A4 plain 
paper between the paper guides, then click the OK 
button. 
5.The printer grips the paper and prints a cleaning page.
6.If subsequent printing appears faded or uneven, try 
replacing the toner cartridge.
Store paper flat and sealed in its original wrapping until required 
for use. Paper left out tends to absorb moisture from the air. This 
makes it prone to curling and also less able to retain a permanent 
image.

The paper tray can hold up to about 150 sheets of standard bond 
paper. The manual feeder takes just one sheet at a time. Take 
just enough paper from its wrapping, fan the stack to ensure all 
sheets are separated from each other, then tap the stack flush 
again before loading.
Load pre-printed stationery top edge first and face down into the 
paper tray or face up into the manual feeder.
If plain paper seems to curl excessively during the print process, 
try turning the stack over in the input tray. You may have been 
printing on the wrong side.
LOADING PAPER IN THE TRAY
1.Remove up to 150 sheets from their wrapping and 
carefully reseal the wrapping to preserve the rest of your 
paper in good condition.
2.Fan the paper stack to ensure all sheets are properly 
separated, then tap the stack flush again before loading.
3.Raise the paper tray cover.
4.Adjust guides to width of paper stack. They should just 
touch the sides of the stack but not grip it tightly.

5.Slide the paper stack fully into the tray as far as it will go, 
print side downwards, top edge into the printer, and 
ensure the guides just touch each side of the stack.
6.Close the tray cover.
LOADING PAPER IN THE MANUAL FEEDER
1.In your computer’s Print dialogue, click the printer 
[Properties] button to display the Printing Preferences 
dialogue.
2.On the Setup tab, choose the correct size for your paper, 
set the source to [Manual] (you can click on the manual 
feeder in the printer graphic if you prefer).
3.On the Job Options tab, set the correct Orientation for 
your document. [Landscape] rotates the page image 90° 
left.
4.Click [OK] to close the Printing Preferences dialogue 
and click [OK] to close the Print dialogue and print the 
document.
The paper feed light will flash, prompting you to load the 
paper. Adjust the paper guides to the width of the paper. 
They should lightly touch each side edge of the paper but 
not grip it tightly.
