See the setup guide(s) for the following instructions.
• Installing the toner cartridge and drum unit
• Connecting cables
• Installing the printer software
The media is printed out to the output tray (top of the printer). When using thick paper [106 -
165 g/m
2 (29-44 lb.)] or when an envelope is printed, it may be curled. You can avoid this by 
opening the rear cover and the media is printed straight out. However, it needs to be removed 
after the media is printed out to avoid a media jam. For available media, see “About Media” on 
page 9.
NOTE
• Be sure to use manual feed when printing a document on a thick paper [106 -165 g/m
2
(29-44 lb.)] or label.
• Plain paper (A4, Letter, Legal, B5, Executive) can be loaded in the optional 2nd feeder.

3Tap the media stack on a level surface to avoid media jams or skewed 
printing.
NOTE
• Be careful not to leave fingerprints on the media, which can result in a smudged print.
• Reusing media (used paper or jammed paper) that has been fed through the printer once
can reduce the life of the consumables and paper path components.
4Place media with the print side down.
•Transparencies, labels or envelope cannot be loaded in the optional 2nd feeder.
The height of paper 
should not exceed the 
limit mark on the tray, or 
it may cause a jam.
