The printer then adjusts the fuser temperature and engine speed to ensure the best possible print quality. When you print transparencies, you will experience a slight delay before printing starts as the printer warms the fuser to the higher temperature. Transparencies then print at approximately 3 ppm. When you load transparencies in the multipurpose feeder, the printer recognizes the type of media you have loaded and automatically makes these adjustments. However, waiting for the printer to sense the presence of transparencies may further delay the job. We recommend always selecting the correct Paper Type before sending a job to print. 76 Chapter 5: Paper handling
