• Page orientation is important when printing on letterhead. For information on how to load letterhead, see: - "Loading trays" on page 66 - "Loading the multipurpose feeder" on page 68 Tips on using transparencies Print samples on the transparencies being considered for use before buying large quantities. When printing on transparencies: • Feed transparencies from any tray or drawer, except the optional 2,000-sheet tray. • Use transparencies designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure transparencies are able to withstand temperatures up to 170°C (338°F) without melting, discoloring, offsetting, or releasing hazardous emissions. • To prevent print quality problems, avoid getting fingerprints on the transparencies. • Before loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together. • We recommend Lexmark part number 12A8240 for letter-size transparencies and Lexmark part number 12A8241 for A4-size transparencies. Tips on using envelopes Print samples on the envelopes being considered for use before buying large quantities. When printing on envelopes: • Use envelopes designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure the envelopes can withstand temperatures up to 190°C (374°F) without sealing, wrinkling, curling excessively, or releasing hazardous emissions. • For the best performance, use envelopes made from 90 g/m2 (24 lb bond) paper. Use up to 105 g/m2 (28 lb bond) weight for envelopes as long as the cotton content is 25% or less. All-cotton envelopes must not exceed 90 g/m2 (24 lb bond) weight. • Use only new envelopes. • To optimize performance and minimize jams, do not use envelopes that: - Have excessive curl or twist - Are stuck together or damaged in any way - Have windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossing - Have metal clasps, string ties, or folding bars - Have an interlocking design - Have postage stamps attached - Have any exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed or closed position - Have bent corners - Have rough, cockle, or laid finishes • Adjust the width guides to fit the width of the envelopes. Note: A combination of high humidity (over 60%) and the high printing temperature may wrinkle or seal envelopes. Printing 83
