flame. Dispose of used toner containers in accordance with local regulations.
• Do not incinerate spilled toner or used toner. Toner dust might ignite when exposed to an open
flame.
• Do not store toner, used toner, or toner containers in a place with an open flame. The toner might
ignite and cause burns or a fire.
• Keep the waste oil bottle away from flames. There is a risk of fire or burns.
• Do not use aluminum foil, carbon paper, or similar conductive paper to avoid a fire or a machine
failure.
• Do not open toner containers forcefully. Toner can spill, dirtying your clothes or hands, and
possibly resulting in accidental ingestion.
• Keep toner (used or unused) and toner containers out of reach of children.
• If toner or used toner is inhaled, gargle with plenty of water and move into a fresh air environment.
Consult a doctor if necessary.
• If toner or used toner gets into your eyes, flush immediately with large amounts of water. Consult
a doctor if necessary.
31
Draft 2008/06/09
• If toner or used toner is swallowed, dilute by drinking a large amount of water. Consult a doctor
if necessary.
• Avoid getting toner on your clothes or skin when removing a paper jam or replacing toner. If your
skin comes into contact with toner, wash the affected area thoroughly with soap and water.
• If toner gets on your clothing, wash with cold water. Hot water will set the toner into the fabric and
may make removing the stain impossible.
• Keep your hands clear of the booklet finisher tray when pulling out or pushing in the finisher's
staple unit. You can trap your fingers if you do not.

• Certain types of paper produce noise when delivered. This noise does not indicate a problem and
print quality is unaffected. (Glossy paper and OHP transparencies can produce noise when
delivered.)
• When using translucent paper or label paper, make sure to select the appropriate paper type. For
details about Paper Type: Bypass Tray, see “System Settings”, Network and System Settings Guide
• When loading paper in the paper trays 1 - 2, the tray 3 (LCT), and the lower paper trays, place the
print side face up.
• When loading paper in the bypass tray, and the large capacity tray, place the print side face down.
• When you use the bypass tray, it is recommended to set the paper direction to
• Do not use paper designed for inkjet printers, as these may stick to the fusing unit and cause a misfeed.
• Do not use color OHP transparencies with coatings that are easily melted by heat.

3. Adding Paper
• When printing on OHP transparencies, press [Bypass], and the [ ] key, and then select the paper
size.
• When you load OHP transparencies, check the front and back of the sheets, and place them correctly,
or a misfeed might occur. Use A4 or 81/2 × 11 size transparencies, and specify their size. For
details, see Copy and Document Server Reference , and Printer Reference .
• When you use OHP transparencies, fan them for each use.
• Flatten out curled sheets before loading them.
• We recommend that you use a 4000ANSI lumen or brighter overhead projector to project OHP
transparencies.
• If multiple sheet feeding occurs, load sheets one by one.
• When you load label paper, set the paper direction to .
• To print on envelopes from the bypass tray: select System Settings, [Tray Paper Settings], and then,
for each tray's [Paper Type], be sure to set [Paper Type] to [Envelope], and [Paper Thickness] to [Thick
Paper 2].
• To print on coated paper from the bypass tray, Tray 1, 2, 3, 4, Tray 3 (LCT), or the large capacity
tray (LCT): select System Settings, [Tray Paper Settings], and then, for each tray's [Paper Type] be
sure to set [Paper Type] to [Coated Paper], and [Paper Thickness] to [Thick Paper 1].
• To print on high-gloss coated paper from the bypass tray, Tray 1, 2, 3, 4, Tray 3 (LCT), or the large
capacity tray (LCT): select System Settings, [Tray Paper Settings], and then, for each tray's [Paper
Type], be sure to set [Paper Type] to [Coated Paper: Gloss].
• Before loading coated or glossy sheets, be sure to fan them thoroughly. If sheets feed in together,
become jammed, or produce strange noises when delivered, load them one by one from the bypass
tray.
• When copying or printing onto letterhead paper, the paper placing orientation is different depends
on which function you are using. See “Orientation-fixed paper or two-sided paper”.
• If you load paper of the same size in two or more trays, the machine automatically shifts to the other
tray when the first tray in use runs out of paper. This function is called Auto Tray Switching. (However,
if the paper type of one tray is recycled or special paper, the settings of the other trays must be the
same for the Auto Tray Switching function to work.) This saves interrupting a copy run to replenish
paper when making a large number of copies. You can set the paper type of the paper trays under
Paper Type: Tray 1-4, and Paper Type: LCT. See “System Settings”, Network and System Settings
Guide . For the setting procedure of the Auto Tray Switching function, see “Copier/Document
Server Features”, Copy and Document Server Reference .
• When copying or printing onto prepunched paper, the copy/print speed is slower than usual.
• The paper types you can select in System Settings are only general classifications. Copy quality for
every kind of paper in a classification is not guaranteed. See “Unusable Paper” for more information.

• Before loading envelopes, flatten their leading edges (the edge going into the machine) by running
a pencil or ruler across them.
• Some kinds of envelope might cause misfeeds, wrinkles or print poorly.
• Print quality on envelopes may be uneven if parts of an envelope have differing thicknesses. Print one
or two envelopes to check print quality.
• In a hot and humid environment, the envelope might be output creased or improper printing quality.

Thick Paper
This section gives you various details about and recommendations concerning thick paper.
When loading thick paper of 170 - 256 g/m2 (45 - 68) in paper trays 1 - 3 or in the bypass tray, follow
the recommendations below to prevent misfeeds and loss of image quality.
• Store all paper together in the same place - a room where the temperature is 20 - 25°C (68 - 77°
F) and humidity is 30 - 65%.
• When loading thick sheets, be sure to load at least 20 sheets. Also, be sure to position the side fences
flush against the paper stack.
• Smooth out any curls in the paper before loading it.
• Jams and misfeeds can occur when printing on thick glossy sheets. To prevent such problems, be sure
to fan glossy sheets thoroughly before loading them. If sheets continue to become jammed or feed in
together even after they are fanned, load them one by one from the bypass tray.
• When loading thick paper in paper trays 1 - 3, set the paper direction according to its grain, as shown
in the following diagram.
BAV041S
1: Direction of paper grain
2: Direction in which to set thick paper in paper trays 1 - 3
• When loading thick paper in the bypass tray, set the paper direction according to its grain, as shown
in the following diagram.

• Even if thick paper is loaded as described above, normal operations and print quality might still not
be possible, depending on the paper type.
• Prints might have prominent vertical creases.
• Prints might be noticeably curled. Flatten out prints if they are creased or curled.

• Paper for inkjet printers
• Thermal fax paper
• Art paper
• Aluminum foil
• Carbon paper
• Conductive paper
• Paper with perforated lines
• Hemmed-edge paper
• Color OHP transparencies with easily melted coatings
• Faults can occur if you copy or print onto sides that are already printed. Take care to copy or print
onto unprinted sides only.
• To prevent misfeeds, do not use the following kinds of paper:
• Bent, folded, or creased paper
• Perforated paper
• Slippery paper
• Torn paper
• Rough paper
• Thin paper with little stiffness
• Paper with a dusty surface
• If you copy or print onto rough grain paper, the output image might be blurred.
