PAPER RECOMMENDATIONS
For guidance on the media you can use with your printer, which input tray 
and which ejection method to use, see the section entitled “Paper and tray 
information” in the “Specifications” chapter.
PAPER AND ENVELOPE TYPES
The manufacturer of this printer recommends the following guidelines 
when selecting paper and envelopes for use in your printer:
> Paper and envelopes should be stored flat and away from 
moisture, direct sunlight and heat sources.
> Use a smooth finished paper such as copier or laser type paper 
with a Sheffield (smoothness) rating of 250 or less. If in doubt, 
please ask your paper supplier.
> Use envelopes designed for use in laser type printers.
> The use of heavily laid or textured paper will seriously affect the 
life of the image drum.
> Do not use very smooth, shiny/glossy paper.
> Do not use heavily embossed letterhead paper.
> Avoid printing on both sides and putting paper through the printer 
twice.
> Avoid using paper with perforations, cut-outs and ragged edges.
> Do not use envelopes with windows or metal clasps.
> Do not use envelopes with self sealing flaps.
> Avoid using damaged or curled envelopes.

TRANSPARENCIES AND ADHESIVE LABELS
The manufacturer of this printer recommends the following guidelines 
when selecting transparencies and adhesive labels for use in your printer:
> Always use manual feed.
> Always use rear output.
> Media must be designed for use in laser printers or photocopiers 
and must be able to withstand 200°C (390°F) for 0.1 sec. 
> Do not use media designed for use in color laser printers and 
photocopiers 
> Labels should cover entire carrier sheet.

INSTALLING PAPER
1. Remove the paper tray from the bottom of the printer and place 
plain paper in the tray, keeping the level of the paper in the tray 
below the guide arrowheads shown on the paper guides (1)
NOTE
If you are topping up the paper in a paper tray, it is recommended that you 
remove the remaining paper from the tray first then add the new paper stock 
followed by the paper you removed. This ensures that the oldest paper is 
used first to help prevent paper jams.
NOTE
Load letterhead paper face down and top edge towards the front of the paper 
tray.

2. Adjust the rear paper support (2) to the size of paper you are using 
by gripping the lugs (3), tilting and sliding the support forwards or 
backwards as necessary
3. Adjust the paper guides (1). It is important to adjust the paper 
guides correctly to ensure that the paper is not skewed in the print 
process. Paper jams may occur if this operation is not carried out 
correctly.
4. Replace the tray in the printer. The paper level indicator (4) 
provides a visual indication of how much paper is left in the tray.
FACE UP AND FACE DOWN PRINTING
 For face down printing, make sure the rear paper exit tray is closed (the 
paper exits from the top of the printer). The paper exit bin on the top of 
the printer stacks printed pages face down, capacity 150 sheets of 20 lb. 
paper. Pages printed in reading order (page 1 first) will be sorted in 
reading order (last page on top, facing down).
For face up printing, make sure the face up rear paper exit tray is open and 
the paper guide is extended if required. In this condition, paper will exit 
via this path, regardless of driver settings. Paper is stacked in reverse 
order, capacity 50 sheets of 20 lb. paper. 
Always use this tray and the manual feed tray for heavyweight stocks to 
reduce the possibility of paper jams.
NOTE
If you are installing legal size paper, open out the paper tray extender located 
at the rear of the paper tray.
NOTE
If you have the optional second paper tray (Tray 2) and you are printing from 
the first (upper) tray (Tray 1), you can pull out the second (lower) tray to 
reload it. However, if printing from the second (lower) tray, do not pull out 
the first (upper) tray as this will result in a paper jam.

AUTOMATIC FEED SEQUENCE
With no optional feed trays installed, the Autotray function in the Print 
Menu is set by default to OFF and the Tray sequence function is set to 
DOWN. Ensure that the Autotray function is set to ON (default) when you 
have either or both optional feed trays installed. In this way, if a tray runs 
out of paper, automatic feed will take place in the order Tray 1, Tray 2 (if 
installed), provided that these trays are set up for identical media.
PRINTING ENVELOPES
1. Pull out the rear paper exit tray (1) until it locks and lift out the 
paper guide (2).
2. Pull down the manual feed tray (3) and adjust the paper guides to 
the width of the envelope.
3. Insert the envelope, flap down and to the left, until the printer 
grips it.
4. Set envelope size and landscape orientation in your software, then 
issue the print command.

HEAVYWEIGHT PAPER OR CARDSTOCK
The normal paper path from a main paper tray to the top output stack 
involves two complete U-turns. This may sometimes cause very 
heavyweight paper or cardstock to jam or misfeed.
Use the manual feed (multi-purpose) tray to feed this type of paper and the 
rear paper exit to collect printed output. This gives a nearly straight paper 
path through the machine and may prove more reliable in this type of 
application.

PAPER FEED, SIZE AND MEDIA SETTING
The process used to fuse (fix) the printed image to the paper involves a 
mixture of pressure and heat. Too much heat will cause lightweight paper 
to crease or curl, and corrugations in transparencies. Too little heat will 
cause the image not to fuse fully into heavyweight paper.
B4100, B4250
The print quality for different types of paper is adjusted by changing the 
media type as follows:
1. Start the Status Monitor.
2. Click on [Printer Setup] tab - [Printer Menu] button - [Paper] tab. 
Click on the button for the paper tray being used. Adjust the 
media type to the required setting and, if necessary, the paper size 
to the size of the paper being used.
3. Click on the [Apply] button, [Close] button then [OK] button to 
set the printer to the new media type and printing quality.
Printing transparencies
When printing transparencies, the manual feed must be used and the 
media type changed to transparencies as follows
:
1. Open the manual feed on the printer and place the transparency 
face up between the paper guides.
2. Adjust the paper guides to the width of the transparency.
NOTE
Although media properties can be set in the printer driver for particular jobs, 
when filling a tray with media it is recommended that you manually set the 
printer to match the media as described here.
CAUTION!
Damage to the printer may occur if the incorrect setting is used when 
printing transparencies.
