Important Precautions and Safety Information
When using this machine, these basic safety precautions should always be followed
to reduce risk of fire, electric shock and injury to people:
1. Read and understand all instructions.
2. Use common sense whenever operating electrical appliances.
3. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the machine and in the literature
accompanying the machine.
4. If an operating instruction appears to conflict with safety information, heed the
safety information. You may have misunderstood the operating instruction. If you
cannot resolve the conflict, contact your sales or service representative for
assistance.
5. Unplug the machine from the AC wall socket and/or telephone jack before
cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use only a damp cloth for
cleaning.
6. Do not place the machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. It may fall, causing
serious damage.
7. Your machine should never be placed on, near or over a radiator, heater, air
conditioner or ventilation duct.
8. Do not allow anything to rest on the power. Do not locate your machine where
the cords will be abused by persons walking on them.
9. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords. This can diminish performance,
and may result in the risk of fire or electric shock.
10. Do not allow pets to chew on the AC power, telephone or PC interface cords.
11. Never push objects of any kind into the machine through case or cabinet
openings. They may touch dangerous voltage points, creating a risk of fire or
shock. Never spill liquid of any kind onto or into the machine.
12. Your machine may have a heavy cover for optimal pressure on the document for
the best scanning and/or faxing (usually the flatbed-type machine). In this case,
replace the cover after placing document on the scan glass, by holding and
moving it down slowly until it seats on its location.
13. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the machine. Take it to a
qualified service technician when repair work is required. Opening or removing
covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect
reassembly could cause electric shock when the unit is subsequently used.
14. Unplug the machine from the telephone jack, PC and AC wall outlet and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
• When any part of the power cord, plug or connecting cable is damaged or
frayed.
• If liquid has been spilled into the machine.
• If the machine has been exposed to rain or water.
• If the machine does not operate properly after instructions have been followed.
• If the machine has been dropped, or the cabinet appears damaged.
• If the machine exhibits a sudden and distinct change in performance.
ix
15. Adjust only those controls covered by the operating instructions. Improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage, and may require extensive
work by a qualified service technician to restore the machine to normal operation.
16. Avoid using this machine during a lightning storm. There may be a remote risk of
electric shock from lightning. If possible, unplug the AC power and telephone cord
for the duration of the lightning storm.
17. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
18. Use only No.26 AWG or larger telephone line cord.

Radio Frequency Emissions
FCC Information to the User
This device copmlies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
•This device may not cause harmful interference, and
•This device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
•
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
•
Consult the dealer or experienced radio TV technician for help.

appareils numériques de Classe B prescrites dans la norme sur le matériel brouilleur:
“Appareils Numériques”, ICES-003 édictée par l’Industrie et Sciences Canada.
xii
Fax Branding
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any person to
use a computer or other electronic device to send any message via a telephone
facsimile machine unless such message clearly contains in a margin at the top or
bottom of each transmitted page or on the first page of the transmission the following
information:
(1) the date and time of transmission
(2) identification of either business, business entity or individual sending the
message; and
(3) telephone number of either the sending machine, business, business entity or
individual.
The Telephone Company may make changes in its communications facilities,
equipment operations or procedures where such action is reasonably required in the
operation of its business and is not inconsistent with the rules and regulations in FCC
Part 68. If such changes can be reasonably expected to render any customer terminal
equipment incompatible with telephone company communications facilities, or
require modification or alteration of such terminal equipment, or otherwise materially
affect its use or performance, the customer shall be given adequate notice in writing,
to allow the customer an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.
Ringer Equivalence Number
The Ringer Equivalence Number and FCC Registration Number for this machine may
be found on the label located on the bottom or rear of the machine. In some instances
you may need to provide these numbers to the telephone company.
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is a measure of the electrical load placed on
the telephone line, and is useful for determining whether you have “overloaded” the
line. Installing several types of equipment on the same telephone line may result in
problems making and receiving telephone calls, especially ringing when your line is
called. The sum of all Ringer Equivalence Numbers of the equipment on your
telephone line should be less than five in order to assure proper service from the
telephone company. In some cases, a sum of five may not be usable on your line. If
any of your telephone equipment is not operating properly, you should immediately
remove it from your telephone line, as it may cause harm to the telephone network.
WARNING:
FCC Regulations state that changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly
approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate this
equipment. In the event that terminal equipment causes harm to the telephone
network, the telephone company should notify the customer that service may be
stopped. However, where prior notice is impractical, the company may temporarily
cease service, providing that they:
a) promptly notify the customer.
b) give the customer an opportunity to correct the equipment problem.
c) inform the customer of the right to bring a complaint to the Federal Communication
Commission pursuant to procedures set out in FCC Rules and Regulations Subpart E
of Part 68.
xiii
You should also know that:
• Your machine is not designed to be connected to a digital PBX system.
• If you intend to use a computer modem or fax modem on the same phone line as
your machine, you may experience transmission and reception problems with all
the equipment. It is recommended that no other equipment, except for a regular
telephone, share the line with your machine.
• If your area experiences a high incidence of lightning or power surges, we
recommend that you install surge protectors for both the power and the telephone
lines. Surge protectors can be purchased from your dealer or telephone and
electronic specialty stores.
• When programming emergency numbers and/or making test calls to emergency
numbers, use a non-emergency number to advise the emergency service
dispatcher of your intentions. The dispatcher will give you further instructions on
how to actually test the emergency number.
• This machine may not be used on coin service or party lines.
• This machine provides magnetic coupling to hearing aids.
• You may safely connect this equipment to the telephone network by means of a
standard modular jack, USOC RJ-11C.

PAPER HANDLING
This chapter introduces you to the basics of selecting
print materials and loading them into your machine.
This chapter includes:
• Selecting Print Materials
• Loading Paper
• Selecting an Output Location
Selecting Print Materials
You can print on a variety of print materials, such as plain paper,
envelopes, labels, transparencies, and etc.. Always use print
materials that meet the guidelines for use with this machine.
See “Paper Specifications” on page D.6. To get the best possible
print quality, use only high-quality copier-grade paper.
When you choose print materials, consider the following:
• Desired outcome: The paper you choose should be
appropriate for your project.
• Size: You can use any size paper that fits easily within the
paper adjusters of the paper tray.
• Weight: Your machine supports paper weights as follows:
- 16 ~ 24 lb (60 ~ 90 g/m2) bond for the standard paper
tray (Tray 1) and optional paper tray (Tray 2)
- 16 ~ 43 lb (60 ~ 163 g/m2) bond for the Multipurpose
tray
• Brightness: Some papers are whiter than others and
produce sharper, more vibrant images.
• Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the paper affects
how crisp the printing looks on the paper.
CAUTION: Using print materials that does not conform to the
specifications listed on page D.9 may cause problems that may
require service. This service is not covered by the warranty or
service agreements.

3.2 PAPER HANDLING
Guidelines for Paper and Special Materials
When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special
material, keep these guidelines in mind:
• Always use paper and other materials that conform with
the specifications listed under “Paper Specifications” on
page D.6.
• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn
paper can cause paper jams and poor print quality.
• Use only high quality copier grade paper for the best print
quality.
• Avoid paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or a
texture that is too smooth or too rough. Paper jams may
occur.
• Store paper in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use.
Place cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor. Do not
place heavy objects on top of the paper, whether it is
packaged or unpackaged. Keep it away from moisture, or
other conditions that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.
• Store unused materials at temperatures between 15 oC
and 30 oC (59 oF to 86 oF). The relative humidity should be
between 10 % and 70 %.
• During storage, you should use a moisture-proof wrap,
such as a plastic container or bag, to prevent dust and
moisture from contaminating your paper.
• Load special paper types one sheet at a time through the
Multipurpose tray to avoid paper jams.
• Only use materials specifically recommended for use in
laser printers.
• To prevent special materials, such as transparencies and
label sheets from sticking together, remove them as they
print out.
• For envelopes:
- Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp and well
creased folds.
- Do not use envelopes with clasps and snaps.
- Do not use envelopes with windows, coated lining, selfadhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.
- Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes.
• For transparencies:
- Place them on a flat surface after removing them from
the machine.
PAPER HANDLING
3.3
- Do not leave them in the paper tray for long periods of
time. Dust and dirt may accumulate on them, resulting
in spotty printing.
- To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them
carefully.
- To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to
prolonged sunlight.
• For labels:
- Verify that their adhesive material can tolerate a fusing
temperature of 200 oC (392 o F) for 0.1 second.
- Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material
between them. Exposed areas can cause labels to peel
off during printing, which can cause paper jams.
Exposed adhesive can also cause damage to machine
components.
- Do not load a sheet of them through the machine more
than once. The adhesive backing is designed for one
pass through the machine.
- Do not use labels that are separating from the backing
sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled or otherwise damaged.
• Do not use Carbonless paper and Tracing paper. Use of
these types of paper could result in chemical smells and
could damage your machine.
Loading Paper
In the Standard Tray
Load the print material you use for the majority of your print
jobs in the standard tray.
The standard tray can hold a maximum of 250 sheets of 20 lb
plain paper.
You can purchase an optional paper tray (Tray 2) and attach it
below the standard tray to load an additional 250 sheets of
paper. See page C.5 for more information about installing the
optional Tray 2.
3.4 PAPER HANDLING
The paper level indicator on the front of the paper tray shows
the amount of paper currently left in the tray. When the tray is
empty, the indicator of the bar is completely lowered.
Paper full
Paper empty
To load paper, pull open the paper tray and load paper with the
side to be printed on face down.
You can load letterhead paper with the design side face down.
The top edge of the sheet with the logo should be placed at the
front of the tray.
For details about loading paper in the paper tray, see “Loading
Paper” on page 2.7.
NOTES:
• If you experience problems with paper feed, place one sheet at a
time in the Multipurpose tray.
• You can load up to 150 sheets of previously printed paper. The
printed side should be facing up with an uncurled edge at the
front. If you experience problems with paper feed, turn the paper
around. Note that the print quality is not guaranteed.
PAPER HANDLING
3.5
In the Multipurpose Tray
The Multipurpose tray can hold several sizes and types of print
material, such as transparencies, postcards, note cards, and
envelopes. It is useful for single page printing on letterhead or
colored paper. You can load approximately 50 sheets of plain
paper, 5 envelopes, 5 transparencies, 5 sheets of card stock, or
5 labels at a time.
To load print material in the Multipurpose tray:
1 Lower the Multipurpose tray and unfold the paper support
extension, as shown.
2 If you are using paper, flex or fan the edge of the paper
stack to separate the pages before loading.
For transparencies, hold them by the edges and avoid
touching the print side. Oils from your fingers can cause
print quality problems.
3.6 PAPER HANDLING
3 Load the print material with the side to be printed on
facing up.
For envelopes, load them with the flap side down and with
the stamp area on the top left side.
NOTES:
• If envelopes jam while printing, try reducing the number of
envelopes in the Multipurpose tray.
• If you want to print on previously printed paper from the
Multipurpose tray, the printed side should be facing down with an
uncurled edge toward the machine. If you experience problems
with the paper feeding, turn the paper around.
4 Squeeze the width guide and adjust it to the width of the
print material without bending it.
5 After loading paper, you need to set the paper type and size
for the Multipurpose tray. See page 2.20 for copying and
faxing or page 4.6 for PC-printing.
NOTE: The settings made from the printer driver override the
settings on the control panel.
PAPER HANDLING

Tips on Using the Multipurpose Tray
• Load only one size of print material at a time in the
Multipurpose tray.
• To prevent paper jams, do not add paper when there is
still paper in the Multipurpose tray. This also applies to
other types of print materials.
• Print materials should be loaded face up with the top edge
going into the Multipurpose tray first and be placed in the
center of the tray.
• Always load only the print materials specified in the
Specifications on page D.6 to avoid paper jams and print
quality problems.
• Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before
loading them into the Multipurpose tray.
• When you print on 76 mm x 127 mm (3 x 5 in.) sized
media on the Multipurpose tray, open the rear door to use
the rear output slot.
• Make sure to open the rear door when you print on
transparencies. If not, they may tear while exiting the
machine.
• If you experience jams with card stock feeding, turn the
paper around the tray again.
