Try a sample of any transparencies you are considering using with the printer before buying large quantities. Do not load transparencies in the optional 250-sheet or 500-sheet drawer. To load transparencies in the multipurpose feeder, see page 54 of Using and loading the multipurpose feeder. When printing on transparencies: • Be sure to set the Paper Type to Transparency from the printer driver, in the Local Printer Setup Utility, or from MarkVision™ to avoid damaging your printer. • Use transparencies designed specifically for laser printers. Transparencies must be able to withstand temperatures of 175°C (347°F) without melting, discoloring, 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. 89
