Transparencies The MFP can print directly on transparencies designed for use in laser printers. Print quality and durability depend on the transparency used. Always print samples on the transparencies you are considering before buying large quantities. The Paper Type setting should be set to Transparency to help prevent jams. In Macintosh, be sure to set the Paper Type to Transparency in the Print dialog on the Imaging choice in the Copies & Pages pop-up menu. Use transparencies designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to determine whether your transparencies are compatible with laser printers that heat transparencies to 230°C (446°F). Use only transparencies that are able to withstand these temperatures without melting, discoloring, offsetting, or releasing hazardous emissions. For detailed information, see the Card Stock & Label Guide, which is available on the Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com. Transparencies can be fed automatically from the multipurpose feeder and all standard and optional trays, except the 2000-sheet drawer. Before loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together. Be careful when you handle transparencies. Fingerprints on the surface of the transparency cause poor print quality. Envelopes You can load up to 10 envelopes in the multipurpose feeder and 85 envelopes in the envelope feeder. Try a sample of any envelopes you are considering using with the MFP before buying large quantities. See Loading the multipurpose feeder and Loading the envelope feeder for instructions on loading envelopes. When printing on envelopes: • To achieve the best possible print quality, use only high-quality envelopes that are designed for use in laser printers. • Set the Paper Size/Type in the Paper menu to MP Feeder, Manual Env, or Env Feeder depending on the source you are using. Set the paper type to Envelope, and select the correct envelope size from the control panel, the MFP driver, or from MarkVision™ Professional. • For best performance, use envelopes made from 75 g/m2 (20 lb bond) paper. You can use up to 105 g/m2 (28 lb bond) weight for the multipurpose feeder or 105 g/m2 (28 lb bond) weight for the envelope feeder as long as the cotton content is 25% or less. Envelopes with 100% cotton content must not exceed 90 g/m2 (24 lb bond) weight. • Use only new, undamaged envelopes. • For best performance and to minimize jams, do not use envelopes that: - Have excessive curl or twist. - Are stuck together or damaged in any way. - Contain windows, holes, perforations, cutouts or embossing. - Use metal clasps, string ties, or metal folding bars. - Have an interlocking design. 103

Transparencies

The MFP can print directly on transparencies designed for use in laser printers. Print quality and

durability depend on the transparency used. Always print samples on the transparencies you are

considering before buying large quantities.

The Paper Type setting should be set to Transparency to help prevent jams. In Macintosh, be sure to

set the Paper Type to Transparency in the Print dialog on the Imaging choice in the Copies & Pages

pop-up menu.

Use transparencies designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to

determine whether your transparencies are compatible with laser printers that heat transparencies to

230

C (446

F). Use only transparencies that are able to withstand these temperatures without

melting, discoloring, offsetting, or releasing hazardous emissions. For detailed information, see the

Card Stock & Label Guide

, which is available on the Lexmark Web site at

www.lexmark.com

Transparencies can be fed automatically from the multipurpose feeder and all standard and optional

trays, except the 2000-sheet drawer. Before loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent sheets

from sticking together.

Be careful when you handle transparencies. Fingerprints on the surface of the transparency cause

poor print quality.

Envelopes

You can load up to 10 envelopes in the multipurpose feeder and 85 envelopes in the envelope feeder.

Try a sample of any envelopes you are considering using with the MFP before buying large

quantities. See

Loading the multipurpose feeder

and

Loading the envelope feeder

for

instructions on loading envelopes.

When printing on envelopes:

•

To achieve the best possible print quality, use only high-quality envelopes that are designed

for use in laser printers.

•

Set the Paper Size/Type in the Paper menu to MP Feeder, Manual Env, or Env Feeder

depending on the source you are using. Set the paper type to Envelope, and select the

correct envelope size from the control panel, the MFP driver, or from MarkVision

For best performance, use envelopes made from 75 g/m

to 105 g/m

(28 lb bond) weight for the multipurpose feeder or 105 g/m

(28 lb bond) weight

for the envelope feeder as long as the cotton content is 25% or less. Envelopes with 100%

cotton content must not exceed 90 g/m

(24 lb bond) weight.

•

Use only new, undamaged envelopes.

•

For best performance and to minimize jams, do not use envelopes that:

–

Have excessive curl or twist.

–

Are stuck together or damaged in any way.

–

Contain windows, holes, perforations, cutouts or embossing.

–

Use metal clasps, string ties, or metal folding bars.

–

Have an interlocking design.
