Run Black
When a color laser printer runs out of toner, users are typically unable to print until a new 
toner cartridge is installed. When a Phaser 6280 runs out of cyan, magenta, or yellow toner 
it can still print in black and white. This feature is known as “Run Black.”
To activate Run Black mode if a color toner runs out in the middle of a print job:
1. Cancel the job.
2. Click File > Print > Preferences or Properties.
3. Click the Paper / Output tab, and under Output Color, select Black and White.
4. Resend your print job.
Note:All color toner cartridges must remain installed in the printer when switching to Run 
Black mode.

Preventing and Clearing Paper Jams
To reduce the occurrence of paper jams, follow the guidelines and instructions in Printing 
Basics on page 45. It includes information about supported paper and media, guides for 
usage, and instructions for properly loading paper in the trays.
Caution:When removing jammed paper, make sure that no pieces of torn paper are left in 
the printer. A piece of paper remaining in the printer can cause a fire. If a sheet of paper is 
wrapped around the heat roller, or when clearing a jammed paper that is difficult or 
impossible to see, do not try to remove it by yourself. Turn off the printer immediately, and 
refer to the Xerox Support website, www.xerox.com/office/6280support
.
Warning:The fuser and the surrounding area are hot and can cause burns.
