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 tray and the optional paper tray unit, place the print side face up.
When loading paper in the bypass 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.
When loading thick paper (91 - 157 g/m2, 25 - 42 lb.), or adhesive labels, make sure the top of the stack is no higher than the upper limit of the bypass tray. Paper capacity varies depending on the thickness and condition of the paper.
When using thick paper (91 - 157 g/m2, 25 - 42 lb.), select [Thick Paper] as the paper type for the bypass tray. For details, see "Copying from the Bypass Tray", Copy Reference.
When copying onto adhesive labels, in bypass settings, select [Thick Paper] for the special paper setting.
When loading OHP transparencies, select [OHP (Transparency)] as the paper type for the bypass tray. For details, see "Copying from the Bypass Tray", Copy Reference.
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 Reference and Printer Reference.
When you use OHP transparencies, fan them for each use.
We recommend you load OHP transparencies and sheets of label paper and translucent paper one by one. This prevents them becoming jammed inside the machine.
Also, be sure to remove printed OHP transparencies and sheets of translucent paper one by one as they are delivered. This prevents them sticking together.
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.
Flatten out curled sheets before loading them.
To print on envelopes from the bypass tray: select [System Settings], [Tray Paper Settings], and then, for the Paper Type: Bypass Tray setting, specify [Thick Paper].
When copying or printing onto letterhead paper, the paper placing orientation is different depending 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 another 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 - 3. See "System Settings", Network and System Settings Guide. For the setting procedure of the Auto Tray Switching function, see "Copier Features", Copy 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.
