end of the cord is securely connected. If you do not know if an outlet is grounded, ask

an electrician to check the outlet.

• Do not use a ground adapter plug to connect the printer to an electrical outlet that

does not have a ground connection terminal.

• Do not use an extension cord or power strip.

• Verify that the printer is plugged into an outlet that is capable of providing the correct

voltage and power. Review the printer’s electrical specification with an electrician if

necessary.

Warning: Avoid the potential of electrical shock by ensuring that the printer is properly

grounded. Electrical products may be hazardous if misused.

• Do not place the printer in an area where people might step on the power cord.

• Do not place objects on the power cord.

• Do not block the ventilation openings. These openings are provided to prevent

overheating of the printer.

• Do not drop paper clips or staples into the printer.

Printing Glossy Paper on page 77

Printing Custom Size or Long Paper on page 82

Paper That Can Damage Your Printer

Your printer is designed to use a variety of media types for print jobs. However, some media

can cause poor output quality, increased paper jams, or damage to your printer.

Unacceptable media includes:

• Rough or porous media

• Plastic media other than supported transparencies

• Paper that has been folded or wrinkled

• Paper with staples

• Envelopes with windows or metal clasps

• Padded envelopes

• Non-laser glossy or coated paper

• Perforated media

Paper Storage Guidelines

Providing good storage conditions for your paper and other media contributes to optimum

print quality.

• Store paper in dark, cool, relatively dry locations. Most paper items are susceptible to

damage from ultraviolet (UV) and visible light. UV radiation, which is emitted by the

sun and fluorescent bulbs, is particularly damaging to paper items. The intensity and

length of exposure to visible light on paper items should be reduced as much as

possible.

• Maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.

• Avoid attics, kitchens, garages, and basements for storing paper. Inside walls are drier

than outside walls where moisture can collect.

• Store paper flat. Paper should be stored on pallets, cartons, shelves, or in cabinets.

• Avoid having food or drinks in the area where paper is stored or handled.

• Do not open sealed packages of paper until you are ready to load them into the

printer. Leave paper in the original packaging. For most commercial cut-size grades, the

ream wrapper contains an inner lining that protects the paper from moisture loss or

gain.

• Leave the media inside the bag until you are ready to use it; reinsert unused media in

the bag and reseal it for protection. Some specialty media is packaged inside

resealable plastic bags.

About Paper

About Paper

Using unsuitable paper may lead to paper jams, poor print quality, breakdown and

damage to your printer. In order to use the features of this printer effectively, use the

suggested paper that is recommended here.

For details on how to load envelopes, see Printing Envelopes on page 69.

Printing on paper that has different settings from the paper size or paper type selected on

the print driver, or loading paper into an unsuitable paper tray for printing, may lead to

paper jams. To ensure that printing is correctly done, select the correct paper size, paper

type, and paper tray.

The printed image may fade due to moisture, such as water, rain or vapor. For details,

contact your reseller.

Setting Paper Types and Sizes

Setting Paper Trays

When loading paper in Tray 3 or the 550-Sheet Feeder (optional), it is necessary to set the

paper type on the control panel.

When loading paper in Tray 1 (MPT), set the paper size and type on the control panel when

printing. When MPT Mode has been set to Panel Specified (default) on the control panel,

you can set the paper size and type on the control panel.

This section describes how to set the paper size and type on the control panel.

Note: When you set MPT Mode to Panel Specified, printing will be performed only when

the settings for the paper size and type configured on the print driver match the settings

on the control panel. When the settings on the print driver and control panel do not match,

follow the instructions displayed on the control panel.

You can also display the message to set the paper size and type on the control panel every

time you load paper into each tray.

Printing Envelopes

Envelopes can be printed only from Tray 1 (MPT).

Guidelines

• Successful envelope printing is highly dependent on the quality and construction of the

envelopes. Use envelopes made specifically for laser printers.

• It is recommended that you maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.

• Store unused envelopes in their packaging to avoid the effects of moisture and dryness

which can affect print quality and cause wrinkling. Excessive moisture can cause the

envelopes to seal before or during printing.

• Avoid padded envelopes; purchase envelopes that lie flat on a surface.

• Remove air bubbles from the envelopes before loading by setting a heavy book on top

of the envelopes.

• If wrinkling or embossing problems occur, use a different brand of envelopes made

specifically for laser printers.

Caution: Never use envelopes with windows or metal clasps; they can damage the printer.

Damage caused by using unsupported envelopes is not covered under the Xerox warranty,

service agreement, or Total Satisfaction Guarantee. The Total Satisfaction Guarantee is

available in the United States and Canada. Coverage may vary outside these areas, please

contact your local representative for details.
