Loading paper and specialty media 80 2 For paper or specialty media that is longer than letter-size paper, gently pull the extension until it is fully extended. 3 Flex the sheets of paper or specialty media back and forth to loosen them. Do not fold or crease them. Straighten the edges on a level surface. Paper Envelopes Transparencies Note: Avoid scratching or touching the print side.
Loading paper and specialty media 81 4 Push the paper pick tab, and then load the paper or specialty media. Slide the stack gently into the multipurpose feeder until it comes to a stop, and then release the paper pick tab. Warning—Potential Damage: Pulling the paper out, without pushing the paper pick tab first, may cause jams or the paper pick tab to break. • Load paper and transparencies with the recommended print side facedown and the short edge entering the printer first.
Loading paper and specialty media 82 5 Adjust the width guide to lightly touch the edge of the stack. Make sure the paper or specialty media fits loosely in the multipurpose feeder, lies flat, and is not bent or wrinkled. 6 From the printer control panel, set the Paper Size and Paper Type for the multipurpose feeder (MP Feeder Size and MP Feeder Type) based on the paper or specialty media loaded.
Loading paper and specialty media 83 Creating a custom name for a paper type If the printer is on a network, you can use the Embedded Web Server to define a name other than Custom Type [x] for each of the custom paper types loaded into the printer. 1 Type the printer IP address into the address field of your Web browser. Note: If you do not know the IP address of the printer, then you can: • View the IP address on the printer control panel in the TCP/IP section under the Networks/Ports menu.
Paper and specialty media guidelines 84 Paper and specialty media guidelines Paper guidelines Paper characteristics The following paper characteristics affect print quality and reliability. Consider these characteristics when evaluating new paper stock. Weight The printer trays can automatically feed paper weights from 60 to 300 g/m2 (16–80 lb bond) grain long. Paper lighter than 60 g/m2 (16 lb) might not be stiff enough to feed properly, causing jams.
Paper and specialty media guidelines 85 For 60–135 g/m2 (16–36 lb bond) paper, grain long paper is recommended. For papers heavier than 135 g/m2, grain short is recommended. Fiber content Most high‑quality xerographic paper is made from 100% chemically treated pulped wood. This content provides the paper with a high degree of stability resulting in fewer paper feeding problems and better print quality. Paper containing fibers such as cotton can negatively affect paper handling.
Paper and specialty media guidelines 86 Use papers printed with heat‑resistant inks designed for use in xerographic copiers. The ink must be able to withstand temperatures up to 190°C (374°F) without melting or releasing hazardous emissions. Use inks that are not affected by the resin in toner. Inks that are oxidation‑set or oil‑based generally meet these requirements; latex inks might not. When in doubt, contact the paper supplier.
Paper and specialty media guidelines 87 3 Choose the most appropriate paper for printing needs: normal 75 or 80 g/m2 certified paper, lower weight paper, or recycled paper.
Paper and specialty media guidelines 88 Supported paper sizes, types, and weights The following tables provide information on standard and optional paper input sources and the types of paper they support.

Printing 100 Tips on using envelopes Print samples on the envelopes being considered for use before buying large quantities. • Use envelopes designed specifically for laser/LED printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure that the envelopes can withstand temperatures up to 220°C (446°F) without sealing, wrinkling, curling excessively, or releasing hazardous emissions. • For best performance, use envelopes made from 90 g/m2 (24 lb bond) paper or 25% cotton.
Printing 101 • 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, then remove a 1.6 mm (0.06 in.) strip on the leading and driver edge, and use a non‑oozing adhesive.
