Printing Basics

Print Media Usage Guidelines

The printer tray accommodates most sizes and types of paper and other specialty media. Follow these guidelines when loading paper and media in the tray:

• Envelopes can be printed from the single sheet feeder (SSF) and standard 250-sheet tray.

• Fan paper or other specialty media before loading in the paper tray.

• Do not print on label stock once a label has been removed from a sheet.

• Use only paper envelopes. Do not use envelopes with windows, metal clasps, or adhesives with release strips.

• Print all envelopes single-sided only.

• Some wrinkling and embossing may occur when printing envelopes.

• Do not overload the paper tray. Do not load print media above the fill line on the inside of the paper width guides.

• Adjust the paper width guides to fit the paper size.

• If excessive jams or wrinkles occur, use paper or other media from a new package.

WARNING:

• Do not use conductive paper such as origami paper, carbonic paper or conductively-coated paper.

When paper jam occurs, it may cause short-circuit and eventually a fire accident.

Printing Basics

Print Media That Can Damage Your Printer

The following paper types are not recommended for use with the printer:

• Chemically treated paper used to make copies without carbon paper, also known as carbonless paper, carbonless copy paper (CCP), or no carbon required (NCR) paper.

• Preprinted paper with chemicals that may contaminate the printer.

• Preprinted paper that can be affected by the temperature in the fuser unit.

• Preprinted paper that requires a registration (the precise print location on the page) greater than

±0.09 inches, such as optical character recognition (OCR) forms.

In some cases, you can adjust registration with your software program to successfully print on these forms.

• Coated paper (erasable bond), synthetic paper, and thermal paper.

• Rough-edged, rough or heavily textured surface paper, or curled paper.

• Recycled paper containing more than 25% post-consumer waste that does not meet DIN 19 309.

• Multiple-part forms or documents.

• Print quality may deteriorate (blank spaces or blotches may appear in the text) when you print on talc or acid paper.

WARNING:

• Do not use conductive paper such as origami paper, carbonic paper or conductively-coated paper.

When paper jam occurs, it may cause short-circuit and eventually a fire accident.

Printing Basics

Print Media Storage Guidelines

For proper print media storage, the following guidelines will help to avoid media feeding problems and uneven print quality.

• Store print media in an environment where the temperature is approximately 70 °F/21 °C and the relative humidity is 40%.

• Store print media 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 print media.

• Store print media flat. Print media should be stored on pallets, cartons, shelves, or in cabinets.

• Avoid having food or drinks in the area where print media 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.

• Do not place anything on top of the print media packages.

Printing Basics

Supported Print Media

Using unsuitable print media may lead to paper jams, poor print quality, breakdown and damage to your printer. To use the features of this printer effectively, use the suggested print media that is recommended here.

IMPORTANT:

• The toner may come off the print media, if it gets wet by water, rain, steam and so on. For details, contact the

Fuji Xerox local representative office or an authorised dealer.

• The data in memory is cleared when the printer is turned off.

Secure Print

You can store print jobs temporarily in printer memory and print them later from the operator panel.

This feature can be used to print confidential documents. A stored print job will be deleted after you print it or at a designated time.

NOTE:

• Secure Print is available when you use the PCL driver.

• Secure Print requires specifying a password for confidentiality.

Sample Print

When you specify multiple copies for a collated job, this feature allows you to print only the first set for checking, before proceeding to print the remaining copies at the printer. You can select whether the remaining data is printed or deleted.

NOTE:

• If a print job is too large for the memory available, the print may display error messages.

• If a document name is not assigned to your print job in the print driver, the job's name will be identified using the printer's time and date of submission to distinguish it from other jobs you have stored under your name.

• Sample Print is available when you use the PCL driver.

Storing Print Jobs

In the print driver, you can specify a setting that enables you to store print jobs in temporary memory.

For example, select a job type other than Normal Print in the Paper / Output tab of the PCL 6 driver.

The job will be stored in temporary memory until you request to print it from the operator panel or turn off the printer.

Printing Custom Size Paper

This section explains how to print on custom size paper using the print driver.

Custom size paper can be loaded in the SSF and standard 250-sheet tray. The way to load custom size paper in the SSF is the same as the one to load standard size paper. The way to load custom size paper in the standard 250-sheet tray is the same as the one to load standard size paper.

NOTE:

• Custom size paper cannot be loaded in the optional 250-sheet feeder.

• "Loading Print Media in the Standard 250-Sheet Tray and the Optional 250-Sheet Feeder" on page 105

• "Setting Paper Sizes and Types" on page 114

Defining Custom Paper Sizes

Before printing, set the custom size on the print driver.

NOTE:

• When setting the paper size on the print driver and the operator panel, be sure to specify the same size as the actual print media used. Setting the wrong size for printing can cause printer failure. This is especially true if you configure a bigger size when using a narrow width paper.

• Using the Windows Print Driver

On the Windows print driver, set the custom size in the Custom Paper Size dialog box. This section explains the procedure using Windows XP and the PCL 6 driver as an example.

For Windows XP or later, an administrator’s password only allows users with administrator rights to change the settings. Users without the rights of administrator can only view the contents.

Click start

→ Printers and Faxes.

Right-click the printer, and then select Properties.

Select the Configuration tab.

Click Custom Paper Size.

Select the custom setup you want to define from Details.

Specify the length of the short edge and long edge under Settings for. You can specify the values either by entering them directly or using the Up Arrow and Down Arrow buttons. The length of the short edge cannot be longer than the long edge, even if it is within the specified range. The length of the long edge cannot be shorter than the short edge, even if it is within the specified range.

To assign a paper name, select the Name Paper Size check box, and then enter the name in

Paper Name. Up to 14 characters can be used for the paper name.

If necessary, repeat steps 5 to 7 to define another custom size.

Click OK twice.

Avoiding Jams

• Use only recommended print media.

• See

"Loading Print Media in the Standard 250-Sheet Tray and the Optional 250-Sheet Feeder" on page 105

and

"Loading Print Media in the Single Sheet Feeder (SSF)" on page 110 to load

print media properly.

• Do not overload the print media sources. Ensure that the print media stack height does not exceed the maximum height indicated by the load-line labels in the tray.

• Do not load wrinkled, creased, damp, or curled print media.

• Flex, fan, and straighten print media before you load it. If a jam occurs with print media, try feeding one sheet at a time through the single sheet feeder (SSF).

• Do not use print media that you have cut or trimmed.

• Do not mix print media sizes, weights, or types in the same print media source.

• Ensure that the recommended print side is face up when you load the print media in the standard

250-sheet tray and the optional 250-sheet feeder. Also, the recommended print side should be face down when you use the SSF.

• Keep print media stored in an acceptable environment.

• Do not remove the feeding tray during a print job.

• Push the tray in firmly after loading.

Troubleshooting

Determining Values

On the color registration chart, there are two types of charts: Chart 1 (fast scan) and Chart 2 (slow scan).

The Chart 1 is used to adjust the color registration for the fast scan direction, which is vertical to paper feed direction. The Chart 2 is used to adjust the color registration for the slow scan direction, which is horizontal to paper feed direction.

The following sections explain how to determine the adjustment values for the fast scan and the slow scan using Chart 1 and Chart 2.

Fast Scan

On the Chart 1 of the color registration chart, find the straightest lines where the two black lines and the colored line are most closely aligned for each color (Y, M, and C). If you find the straightest line, make a note of the value (-9 to

+9) indicated by the straightest line for each color.

When the value is 0 for each color, you do not need to adjust the color registration for the fast scan.

When the value is not 0, enter the value using the procedure in

"Entering Values" on page 231 .

Straightest line

Slow Scan

On the Chart 2 of the color registration chart, find the medium line within the range of white area for each color pattern (Y, M, and C). If you find the medium line, make a note of the value (-9 to

+9) indicated by the medium line for each color.

When the value is 0 for each color, you do not need to adjust the color registration for the slow scan.

When the value is not 0, enter the value using the procedure in

"Entering Values" on page 231 .
