Loading and Printing Letterhead and Memo Media
Using Transparencies
Loading and Printing Transparencies
n Load transparencies the same way you would load paper.
n Load letterhead and memo media the
same way you would load paper.
» Note:
Load the media printing-side up with
the top of the media (the letterhead or
memo information) toward the back of the
cassette.
Formatting Format the information to be printed on the transparencies
within your application. Try printing your data on a plain sheet
of paper first to check placement.
Input Source Upper cassette
Capacity Up to 50 sheets, depending on the thickness of the
transparencies
» Note:
If you have problems feeding 50 sheets,
try loading only 5–10 sheets at a time. Loading a
large number of transparencies at a time may
cause static buildup, thus causing feeding
problems.
Type Refer to the specifications in chapter 2, “Print Media,” in the
Reference
Notes n Keep the media path clean. Transparencies are especially
sensitive to a dirty media path. If there are shadows on
either the top or the bottom of the sheets, refer to chapter 5,
“Printer Care,” for instructions on how to clean the printer.
n Check your application documentation for other information
about printing on transparencies.
