This chapter includes: • Setting up the hardware • Altitude adjustment Setting up the hardware This section shows the steps to set up the hardware which is explained in the Quick Install Guide. Make sure you read Quick Install Guide and complete following steps.
Altitude adjustment The print quality is affected by atmospheric pressure, which is determined by the height of the machine above sea level. The following information will guide you on how to set your machine to the best print quality or best quality of print. The altitude above 1,000 m (3,281 ft), may affect the print quality such as loose toner or light imaging. Before you set the altitude setting, find the altitude where you are using the machine.
4 Selecting and loading print Selecting print media media You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper, labels, and transparencies. Always use print media that meet the guidelines for use with your machine. Print media that does not meet the guidelines outlined in this user’s guide may cause the following problems: This chapter introduces you how to load originals and print media into your machine.
Guidelines for selecting and storing print media When selecting or loading paper, or other print materials, keep these guidelines in mind: • Always use print media that conform with the specifications listed on page 4.3. • Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause paper jams and poor print quality. • For the best print quality, use only high quality copier grade paper specifically recommended for use in laser machines.
Specifications on print media Note • Due to the nature of the product, the envelope type of media cannot be used with your machine. •Use the print media type mentioned below only. Type Size Weighta Dimensions Letter 216 x 279 mm (8.5 x 11 inches) A4 210 x 297 mm (8.26 x 11.69 inches) JIS B5 182 x 257 mm (7.16 x 10.11 inches) ISO B5 176 x 250 mm (6.93 x 9.84 inches) A5 148 x 210 mm (5.82 x 8.26 inches) A6 105 x 148 mm (4.13 x 5.82 inches) Executive 184 x 267 mm (7.25 x 10.
Guidelines for special print media Media type Guidelines Transparencies • To avoid damaging the machine, use only transparencies designed for use in laser machines. • Transparencies used in the machine must be able to withstand the machine’s fusing temperature.
