Media specifications
Paper designed for use with xerographic copiers should provide satisfactory print quality and feed reliability.
Other types of media may be suitable. It is recommended that users test any particular brand for suitability to their applications. Refer to the printer User's Guide for additional media specifications.
Paper
Follow the media guidelines below for successful printing:
•
Rough, highly textured, limp, or pre-curled papers will result in lower print quality and more frequent paper feed failures.
•
Colored papers must be able to withstand 190° C (374° F) fusing temperature.
•
Preprinted forms and letterheads must be able to withstand 190° C (374° F) fusing temperature and should be selected using guidelines found in the printer User’s Guide. The chemical process used in preprinting may render some papers unsuitable for use.
•
Unsuitable papers include:
–
Multi-part forms and documents
–
Chemically treated papers; coated
–
Synthetic and thermal papers
–
A5 paper less than 80 g/m
–
2
(21 lb)
Recycled paper less than 75 g/m
2
(20 lb)
–
Preprinted papers requiring a high degree of registration.
–
Recycled paper less than 80 g/m
2
(21 lb) may cause unacceptable results.
Envelopes
•
All envelopes should be new, unused, and without package damage.
•
Envelopes with excessive curl or twist exceeding 6 mm, those stuck together, those with bent corners or nicked edges, or those that interlock should not be used.
•
Minimum weight: 60 g/m2 (16 lb.)
•
The following envelopes should not be used:
•
Envelopes with windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or deep embossing
•
Envelopes with metal clasps, string ties, or metal folding bars
•
Envelopes with exposed flap adhesive when the flap is in the closed position.
•
For best results, printing on new 90 g/m2 (24 lb.) sulfite or 25% cotton bond envelopes is recommended.
•
Under high humidity conditions (over 60%), envelopes may seal during printing.
Transparencies
•
Use letter or A4-size transparencies for color laser printers only.
•
See Ordering Information for the recommended transparencies for the Lexmark C746x/C748x laser printers.
•
Do not use inkjet transparencies.
Labels
Labels should be selected using guidelines found in the User's Guide or the Card Stock and Label Guide, and tested for acceptability.

Using recycled paper and other office papers
Recycled office paper produced specifically for use in laser (electrophotographic) printers may be used in your printer. However, no blanket statement can be made that all recycled paper will feed well.
Generally, the following property guidelines apply to recycled paper.
•
Low moisture content (4–5%)
•
Suitable smoothness (100–200 Sheffield units, or 140–350 Bendtsen units, European)
Note:
Some much smoother papers (such as premium 24 lb laser papers, 50–90 Sheffield units) and much rougher papers (such as premium cotton papers, 200–300 Sheffield units) have been engineered to work very well in laser printers, despite surface texture. Before using these types of paper, consult your paper supplier.
•
Suitable sheet-to-sheet coefficient of friction (0.4–0.6)
•
Sufficient bending resistance in the direction of feed
Recycled paper, paper of lower weight (<60 g/m
2
[16 lb bond]) and/or lower caliper (<3.8 mils [0.1 mm]), and paper that is cut grain-short for portrait (or short-edge) fed printers may have lower bending resistance than is required for reliable paper feeding. Before using these types of paper for laser (electrophotographic) printing, consult your paper supplier. Remember that these are general guidelines only and that paper meeting these guidelines may still cause paper feeding problems in any laser printer (for example, if the paper curls excessively under normal printing conditions).

Paper guidelines
Paper characteristics
The following paper characteristics affect print quality and reliability. Consider these characteristics when evaluating new paper stock.
Weight
—The printer can automatically feed paper weights from 60 to 162l7 g/m
2
(16 to 43 lb bond) grain long.
Paper lighter than 60 g/m
2
(16 lb) might not be stiff enough to feed properly, causing jams. For best performance, use 75 g/m
2
(20 lb bond) grain long paper. For paper smaller than 182 x 257 mm (7.2 x 10.1 in.), we recommend 90 g/m
2
(24 lb) or heavier paper.
Note:
Duplex is supported only for 63 g/m
2
–170 g/m
2
(17 lb–45 lb bond) paper.
Curl
—Curl is the tendency for paper to curl at its edges. Excessive curl can cause paper feeding problems. Curl can occur after the paper passes through the printer, where it is exposed to high temperatures. Storing paper unwrapped in hot, humid, cold, or dry conditions, even in the trays, can contribute to paper curling prior to printing and can cause feeding problems.
Smoothness
—Paper smoothness directly affects print quality. If paper is too rough, toner cannot fuse to it properly. If paper is too smooth, it can cause paper feeding or print quality issues. Always use paper between
100 and 300 Sheffield points; however, smoothness between 150 and 200 Sheffield points produces the best print quality.
Moisture content
—The amount of moisture in paper affects both print quality and the ability of the printer to feed the paper correctly. Leave paper in its original wrapper until it is time to use it. This limits the exposure of paper to moisture changes that can degrade its performance.
Condition paper before printing by storing it in its original wrapper in the same environment as the printer for 24 to 48 hours before printing. Extend the time several days if the storage or transportation environment is very different from the printer environment. Thick paper may also require a longer conditioning period.
Grain direction
—Grain refers to the alignment of the paper fibers in a sheet of paper. Grain is either grain long, running the length of the paper, or grain short, running the width of the paper. For 60 to 135 g/m
2
(16 to 36 lb bond) paper, grain long paper is recommended. For papers heavier than 135 g/m
2
, grain short is recommended.
Fiber content
—Most high-quality xerographic paper is made from 100% chemically treated pulped wood. This content provides the paper with a high degree of stability resulting in fewer paper feeding problems and better print quality. Paper containing fibers such as cotton can negatively affect paper handling.
Unacceptable paper
The following paper types are not recommended for use with the printer:
•
Chemically treated papers used to make copies without carbon paper, also known as carbonless papers, carbonless copy paper (CCP), or no carbon required (NCR) paper
•
Preprinted papers with chemicals that may contaminate the printer
•
Preprinted papers that can be affected by the temperature in the printer fuser

•
Preprinted papers that require a registration (the precise print location on the page) greater than ±2.3 mm
(±0.9 in.), such as optical character recognition (OCR) forms
Note:
In some cases, registration can be adjusted with a software application to successfully print on these forms.
•
Coated papers (erasable bond), synthetic papers, thermal papers
•
Rough-edged, rough or heavily textured surface papers, or curled papers
•
Recycled papers that fail EN12281:2002 (European)
•
Paper weighing less than 60 g/m
2
(16 lb)
•
Multiple-part forms or documents
Selecting paper
Using appropriate paper prevents jams and helps ensure trouble-free printing.
To help avoid jams and poor print quality:
•
Always
use new, undamaged paper.
•
Before loading paper, know the recommended print side of the paper. This information is usually indicated on the paper package.
•
Do not use paper that has been cut or trimmed by hand.
•
Do not mix paper sizes, types, or weights in the same source; mixing results in jams.
•
Do not use coated papers unless they are specifically designed for electrophotographic printing.
Selecting preprinted forms and letterhead
Use these guidelines when selecting preprinted forms and letterhead:
•
Use grain long for 60 to 90 g/m
2
(16 to 20 lb) weight paper.
•
Use only forms and letterhead printed using an offset lithographic or engraved printing process.
•
Avoid papers with rough or heavily textured surfaces.
Use papers printed with heat-resistant inks designed for use in xerographic copiers. The ink must be able to withstand temperatures up to 190°C (374°F) without melting or releasing hazardous emissions. Use inks that are not affected by the resin in toner. Inks that are oxidation-set or oil-based generally meet these requirements; latex inks might not. When in doubt, contact the paper supplier.
Preprinted papers such as letterhead must be able to withstand temperatures up to 190°C (374°F) without melting or releasing hazardous emissions.

Storing paper
Use these paper storage guidelines to help avoid jams and uneven print quality:
•
For best results, store paper where the temperature is 21°C (70°F) and the relative humidity is 40%. Most label manufacturers recommend printing in a temperature range of 18 to 24°C (65 to 75°F) with relative humidity between 40 and 60%.
•
Store paper in cartons when possible, on a pallet or shelf, rather than on the floor.
•
Store individual packages on a flat surface.
•
Do not store anything on top of individual paper packages.

Service tip: Before troubleshooting any print quality problems, do the following:
1.
Print a menu settings page, and then check the life status of all supplies. Any supplies that are low should be replaced.
Note:
Be sure and keep the original menu page to restore the customer's custom settings if needed.
2.
On the menu page, make sure the following is set to the default level:
–
Color Correction: Set to Auto.
–
Print Resolution: Set to 1200 dpi (print quality problems should be checked at different resolution settings).
–
Toner Darkness: Set to 4 (default).
–
Color Saver: Set to OFF.
–
RGB Brightness, RGB Contrast, RGB Saturation: Set to 0.
–
Color Balance: Select Reset Defaults to zero out all colors.
–
Check the paper type, texture and weight settings against what is loaded in the printer.
Once the printer has been restored to its default levels, do the following:
3.
Inspect the transfer module for damage. Replace if damaged.
4.
Inspect the photoconductor units and toner cartridges for damage. Replace if damaged.
5.
If paper other than 20 lb plain letter/A4 paper is being used, load 20 lb plain letter/A4 and print the Print
Quality pages to see if the problem remains.
6.
Use Tray 1 to test print quality problems.
7.
Print the Print Quality Pages, and then look for variations in the print from what is expected.
An incorrect printer driver for the installed software can cause problems. Incorrect characters could print, and the copy may not fit the page correctly.
Measure all voltages from the connector to the printer ground.

Note:
If you need to perform alignment or registration, see
“Printhead alignment” on page 4-8
The following information is meant to explain the uses for the menu items.
Print registration makes sure the black printing is properly aligned on the page. This is one of the steps in aligning a new printhead. It is also the first step in aligning the duplex registration. See
“Quick Test (duplex)” on page 3-16
.
The settings available are Top Margin, Bottom Margin, Left Margin, Right Margin, Skew, and Quick Test.
Skew
One printhead houses the four color planes. The black plane is aligned to the printer, and the color planes are internally aligned to black. Adjust the skew mechanically by moving the printhead with a printhead adjustment screw. See
“Printhead mechanical alignment (C746)” on page 4-8
for instructions on setting printhead alignment. Electronic alignment fine tunes the alignment of the color planes to the black plane once the printhead is installed. Skew adjustment must be performed before color alignment is attempted. The following illustration shows proper alignment versus skewed alignment.

The two configuration IDs are used to communicate information about certain areas of the printer that cannot be determined using hardware sensors. The configuration IDs are originally set at the factory when the printer is manufactured. However, the servicer may need to reset Configuration ID 1 or Configuration ID 2 whenever the system board is replaced. The IDs consist of eight digits. The first seven digits in each ID are hexadecimal numbers, while the last digit is a checksum of the preceding seven digits. Each ID can contain a combination of the digits 0 through 9, and A through F.
Note:
When the printer detects a Configuration ID that is not defined or invalid, the following occurs:

Parallel 1 strobe adjustment (Par 1 Strobe Adj)
Note:
This setting appears only if the printer has a parallel port available in the PCI slot 1.
This setting enables the servicer to adjust the amount of time the strobe is sampled in order to determine if valid data is available on the parallel port. The range of values is -4 to 6. Each time this value is incremented by 1, the strobe is sampled 50 ns (nanoseconds) longer. Each time this value is decreased by 1, the strobe is sampled 50 ns less often. When the value of this setting is 0, the factory default is used to determine the length of time the strobe is sampled. If the servicer, for example, decreased the value from 0 to 3, the strobe will be sampled for
150 ns longer than the factory setting.

Color Trapping
Uses an algorithm to compensate for mechanical misregistration in the printer. When small black text or fine black lines are being printed, the printer checks to see if they are being printed on top of a colored background.
If so, rather than remove the color from beneath the black content, the printer leaves the color around the edge of the text or line. The hole in the colored region is reduced in size which prevents the characteristic white gap that is caused by mis-registration.
This menu item applies to PCL 5e emulation, PCL XL, PDF, and PostScript.
Selections are Off and the values 1 through 5, with 2 as the default. Values 1 through 5 indicate the amount of color remaining beneath the black content. Each setting increments by 1/600 of an inch. The less accurate the registration setting, the higher the setting needs to be adjusted. Selecting Off disables color trapping. The default value is 2.
Tray Insert Msg
This setting determines how many seconds the panel will display the
Tray Insert message after inserting a tray into the printer.
Selections are Disabled and the values between 1 and 90. The default value is 5.

Automatic Color Adjust
Sets the suggested number of pages which the printer should print between consecutive calibrations.
Selections are Off and the values between 100 and 1000 in increments of 50. The default is 500 pages.
If the printer exceeds the set value while printing a job, it completes the current job and any other jobs received while printing the current job before it initiates a calibration. The printer does not cancel or suspend an active job in order to perform a calibration. If a user is in any of the menus, including the Configuration Menu and the
Diagnostics mode, an automatic color adjust calibration does not occur.

Auto Align Adj
Controls whether the printer executes the automatic alignment calibration after an initiating event occurs. When an event initiates a TPS operation, the printer performs a toner density calibration, (TPS) an alignment calibration, or both of the calibrations.
Toner Patch Sensing (TPS) is a diagnostic mechanism that automatically adjusts the printer toner density and alignment settings. When TPS executes, the printer generates toner patches on the transfer module. It then uses these to calculate the appropriate adjustment, to density, if necessary.
Selections are On (default) and Off. Turning this setting to Off is not recommended for normal operation because it prevents the printer from using the results of automatic color calibration and automatic alignment to make minor adjustments. Eventually, the user will have to manually correct alignment and color on the printer.
Color Adj State
These settings allow you to select when color calibrations occur. Selecting Busy indicates the color calibrations will complete queued jobs, but refuse to add new jobs to the queue. When calibration is complete jobs are again accepted. Selecting Idle allows calibrations only when the printer is idle.
Enforce Color Order
This setting gives the system support person the ability to enforce where the color cartridges may be placed, and if messages appear when cartridges are in the wrong location.
When On (default) is selected, the printer lets users place each toner cartridge in only its specified slot. For instance, the Magenta toner cartridge must be in the Magenta slot. If the user tries to place a cartridge in an incorrect slot, the printer message
31 Defective or Missing <color> Cartridge or 32 Unsupported <color>
Cartridge appears where <color> stands for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, or Black.
When Off is selected, the printer does not issue any message to let the user know that the cartridge is placed in the wrong slot inside the printer.
Color Alignment
Color alignment should be performed when the printhead may become misaligned because it was removed or replaced. Perform Color Alignment when a new transfer belt assembly is installed.
To perform color alignment:
1.
Select Color Alignment from the Configuration Menu.
2.
Select Print Alignment Page.

Paper Prompts
Controls the source the printer selects for a change paper source message. The printer displays the change paper source message based on the size of the paper requested and not by the paper type.
Selections include Auto, Multi-Purpose Feeder, and Manual Paper.
Note:
Multi-Purpose Feeder is only available on some printer models.
Note:
If the Configure MP setting is changed to Manual, a power-on reset is performed, and the value of the
Paper Prompts menu item before the power-on reset was Multi-Purpose Feeder, then when the printer restarts, the printer automatically changes the Paper Prompts setting to Manual Paper.
Load Manual overrides that would result in a change paper message are disabled for Paper or Envelope prompts that are set to Manual, Manual Paper, or Manual Envelope.
Envelope Prompts
Controls the source the printer selects for a change envelope source message. The printer displays the change envelope message based on the size of the envelope requested and not by the envelope type.
Selections include Auto, Multi-Purpose Feeder, and Manual Envelope.
Note:
Multi-Purpose Feeder is only available on some printer models.
Note:
If the Configure MP setting is changed to Manual, and a power-on reset is performed, and the value of the Envelope Prompts menu item before the power-on reset was Multi-Purpose Feeder, then when the printer restarts, the printer automatically changes the Envelope Prompt setting to Manual Envelope.
Load Manual overrides that would result in a change paper message are disabled for Paper or Envelope prompts that are set to Manual, Manual Paper, or Manual Envelope.
Action for Prompts
This setting gives the user the option of having the printer resolve change prompt situations without requiring any user assistance. If the Prompt user value is selected, the printer displays change prompts if the job does not match the media in the selected source. The user must select another source or change the paper. If
Continue
or Use current is selected, the printer acts as if the user made the selection Continue or
Use current

CAUTION—HOT SURFACE
The fuser and the inside of the printer near the fuser may be hot. Wait for the fuser to cool before clearing jams from this area.
Next
By carefully selecting papers and specialty media (see
“Paper guidelines” on page 1-13
) and loading it properly, you should be able to avoid most jams. If jams do occur, follow the steps outlined below.
To resolve the jam messages, you must clear the entire paper path, and press or touch to clear the message and resume printing. The printer prints a new copy of the page that jammed if Jam Recovery is set to
On or Auto; however, the Auto setting does not guarantee the page will print.
Note:
Jam recovery is set to Auto by default. When jam recovery is set to Auto, the memory that holds the image of a page may be re-used after the page is printed but before it has successfully exited the printer if that memory is needed for another use. Therefore, a jammed page may or may not be reprinted, depending on the overall memory usage in the printer.
Avoiding jams
The following hints can help you avoid jams:
•
Use only recommended paper or specialty media.
For more information, refer to the Card Stock & Label Guide available on the Lexmark Web site at
www.lexmark.com/publications
.
•
Do not load too much paper. Make sure the stack height does not exceed the indicated maximum height.
•
Do not load wrinkled, creased, damp, or curled paper.
•
Flex, fan, and straighten paper before loading it.
•
Do not use paper that has been cut or trimmed by hand.
•
Do not mix paper sizes, weights, or types in the same stack.
•
Store the paper in an appropriate environment.
•
Do not remove trays while the printer is printing. Wait for
Load tray <x> or Ready to appear before removing a tray.
•
Do not load the multipurpose tray while the printer is printing. Load the tray prior to printing, or wait for
Load
Multipurpose tray with <x> to appear.
•
Push all trays in firmly after loading paper.
•
Make sure the guides in the trays are properly positioned and are not pressing too tightly against the paper.
•
Make sure all paper sizes and paper types are set correctly in the printer control panel menu.
•
Make sure all printer cables are attached correctly. For more information, refer to the setup documentation.

Main Components
System board
The system board provides the intelligence of the printer. Command and control signals originate in the system card that make print media travel possible. The system card controls the timing of the print media during the printing so the media arrives at certain positions in the print process at certain times.
Paper tray
Houses the print media.
Paper pick mechanism
Picks the print media from the paper tray. The paper pick mechanism contains the paper pick (input) sensor and the multifunction transparency sensor.
Bump aligner roll
The bump aligner roll advances the print media onto the transfer belt and corrects any media skew as it comes out of the paper trays or MPF.
Transfer belt
The transfer rolls (located inside the transfer belt unit) are an integral part of the electrophotographic process, and the transfer belt advances the print media through the printer.
Fuser
The fuser bonds toner to the print media and advances the print media through the last portion of the paper path.
The paper exit sensor is also located in the fuser, and a flag is present on all fusers that activates the bin full sensors on network model printers.
Duplex
The duplex function is built into the front access door and uses a two-pass method for rerouting the paper down and back through the paper path for a second time. To accomplish the two-pass method, the paper is fed partially out of the printer and is then reversed back into the printer.

Print media transport
The print media is picked from the input source and fed to the bump aligner roll. The media movement is detected by a sensor located in the paper pick mechanism. It does not matter where the media comes from
(Tray 1, Tray 2, or, the MPF); it will enter the electrophotographic process at the bump aligner drive. The bump aligner motor drives the bump aligner roll which feeds the paper to the transfer belt.

Once the print media exits the transfer belt, it enters the fuser where heat and pressure are applied to bond the toner permanently to the media. The fuser rollers continue to turn and pull the print media through the paper path until it reaches the exit drive roll. The exit drive roll pulls the print media from the fuser rollers and delivers it to the fuser output drive roll. Once the print media reaches the fuser output drive roll, the roller pushes the print media into the output bin.

If the page is to be duplexed, the fuser output drive roll continues to pull the media until it clears the paper exit flag and then reverses the rotation of the roller in order to pull the media back into the printer duplex assembly.
The media is then routed down through the duplex path until it reaches the bump aligner roll. Once in this position, it enters the EP path for the second time.

Paper exit flag
The paper exit flag serves two purposes. When it triggers the paper exit sensor, it serves as a one-way gate for the media when it is exiting the printer to the output bin and also serves as a one-way gate when the media is entering back into the printer for a duplex print. In other words, it diverts the print media's path, directing it to either the output bin or the duplex paper path.

Mechanical drive
In order for the print media to move through the paper path, there are several drive motors that supply the mechanical power to the rollers discussed previously. The drives for these components are illustrated and discussed in the following paragraphs.
Paper pick mechanism drive
When printing from Tray 1 or Tray 2, the paper pick motor drives the paper pick gears which causes the pick roller to turn. During an MPF print, the paper pick motor drives the swing arm assembly for the MPF and causes the MPF paper pick roller to turn.

Duplex drive
The duplex drive is driven by the MPF/duplex motor through the MPF/duplex gear. Drive is provided to three drive shafts in the duplex unit by a belt that is driven by the MPF/duplex motor. The drive shafts move the print media through the duplex unit during printing.
Paper sensing
Sensors are strategically placed in the printer to ensure that the print media is making it to specific points within a given time in the electrophotographic process. There are two paper flags: one at the bottom of the machine
(paper pick) to detect input paper, including duplex second side, from all sources and one at the top (paper exit) to detect paper movement beyond the fuser. The flags are similar in design, in that a mechanical arm is moved by the media to interrupt an optical sensor; both are normally blocked when no media is present. There is also a multifunction transparency sensor that detects if: 1) tray 1 is present, 2) narrow media is being used, and 3) the media is a transparency. The sensor works for tray 1, tray 2 (500-sheet option), and the MPF.

The paper exit/duplex sensor flag detects movement in two directions: as the paper exits the fuser and as it is retracted from the exit tray back into the duplex path. Each sheet must be driven past the fuser exit flag and allowed to fall before being turned around and starting the duplex path. If the print media activates the paper exit flag for too long, or the print media doesn't reach the paper exit flag within a given time, a paper jam error will be posted.

High voltage power supply (HVPS)
Provides a high voltage charge to:
•
The charge roll located in the photoconductor unit
•

•
The toner adder roller (TAR) located in the toner cartridge
•
The developer roll located in the toner cartridge
•
The doctor blade located in the toner cartridge
•
The four transfer rolls located in the transfer belt
Printhead assembly
The printhead receives control and image data from the system card (RIP). Through the use of a laser unit, the printhead irradiates the photoconductor drum with light and creates an invisible image called a latent or electrostatic image.
Photoconductor unit
The photoconductor unit consists primarily of a charge roll and the photoconductor drum. The charge roll charges the surface of the photoconductor drum to prepare it for the latent image “drawn” by the laser. Once the photoconductor drum has been written to by the laser, it is responsible for picking up toner from the cartridge developer roller and then transferring the image to the print media.
Toner cartridge
This unit consists primarily of the developer roll and the toner adder roll. The primary function of this unit is to supply charge toner to the photoconductor unit for transfer onto the print media. The toner adheres to the electrostatic image on the surface of the photoconductor drum which is then transferred to the print media.
Fuser
The fuser assembly uses heat and pressure to fuse the toner image onto the print media.

The following illustration depicts a typical data path for a single color exposure.
Data is received from a computer into a port on the system card. The system card's RIP function converts this data into raster information which is fed to the printhead along with other control data. The data is converted by the printhead laser into light energy data that is directed to the light sensitive photoconductor unit.

Developing
The two primary components of the developing process are the photoconductor unit and the toner cartridge. The toner cartridge contains a toner adder roll, developer roll and toner. Toner is advanced toward the toner adder roll by three paddle assemblies. The advanced toner clings to the electrically charged toner adder roll. The toner on the toner adder roll is then electrically attracted to the developer roll because of the difference in electrical charge between the toner adder roll and the developer roll. The toner uniformly coats the developer roll with help from the doctor blade and is introduced to the electrostatic image on the photoconductor drum. The toner then transfers to the photoconductor drum.

Transferring
After the toner is attracted to the photoconductor drum, the image is ready for transfer onto the print media. The print media is advanced in the paper path onto the transfer belt and is carried along the belt underneath each photoconductor unit. The charged transfer roll(s) located inside the transfer belt pulls the image from the photoconductor drum to the print media. This is a direct transfer method.
The main function of the transfer belt is to provide transport for the print media. Toner is not transferred directly to the belt during the print process.

Handling ESD-sensitive parts
Warning:
Read the following before handling electronic parts.
Many electronic products use parts that are known to be sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). To prevent damage to ESD-sensitive parts, follow the instructions below in addition to all the usual precautions, such as turning off power before removing electronic cards:
•
Keep the ESD-sensitive part in its original shipping container (a special “ESD bag”) until you are ready to install the part in the printer.
•
Make the fewest possible movements with your body to prevent an increase of static electricity from clothing fibers, carpets, and furniture.
•
Put the ESD wrist strap on your wrist. Connect the wrist band to the system ground point. This discharges any static electricity in your body to the printer.
•
Hold the ESD-sensitive part by its edge connector shroud (cover); do not touch its pins.
•
If you need to put down the ESD-sensitive part for any reason, first put it into its special bag.
•
Printer covers and metal tables are electrical grounds. They increase the risk of damage, because they make a discharge path from your body through the ESD-sensitive part. (Large metal objects can be discharge paths without being grounded.)
•
Prevent ESD-sensitive parts from being accidentally touched by other personnel. Install printer covers when you are not working on the printer, and do not put unprotected ESD-sensitive parts on a table.
•
If possible, keep all ESD-sensitive parts in a grounded metal cabinet (case).
•
Be extra careful in working with ESD-sensitive parts when cold-weather heating is used, because low humidity increases static electricity.
Handing the photoconductor unit
The following precautions must be observed when handling the photoconductor unit. The photoconductor unit is a supply item you will have to remove during some of the repair procedures:
Transportation/storage
Use the specified carton whenever moving or storing the photoconductor unit.
Handling
•
The optical photoconductor roller in the photoconductor unit exhibits the greatest light fatigue after being exposed to strong light over an extended period of time. Never expose it to direct sunlight. Cover the photoconductor unit when you remove it from the printer.
•
Use care not to contaminate the surface of the optical photoconductor roller with an oil-based solvent, fingerprints, and other foreign matter.
•
Do not scratch the surface of the optical photoconductor roller.
Parts not to be touched
Any part where the mounting screws are used to meet a printer alignment set at the factory must not be removed, disassembled, or adjusted.

Printhead alignment
Overview
When aligning the printhead, it is important to keep in mind that the printhead mounting screws should be initially loose enough to just hold the printhead in the printer. This allows the pages to be printed that will be used to align the black plane to the printer frame and also allows skew adjustment with the printhead alignment screw.
Once the black skew is adjusted, the mounting screws are fully tightened.
There is one printhead that houses the four color planes. The black plane is aligned to the printer, and the color planes are internally aligned to black. Electrical alignment is done to fine tune the alignment of the color planes to the black plane once the printhead is installed and skew is adjusted.
The first step in aligning the printhead is to loosen the printhead mounting screws, and to set the skew for black.
Note:
If you need to replace the printhead, see
“Printhead removal, installation, and adjustment” on page 4-145

Install the printhead and replace parts
Warning:
•
When reinstalling the printhead, it is important to keep in mind that the printhead mounting screws should be initially tightened just enough to hold the printhead in the printer. The printer parts are installed with the printhead mounting screws loose so you can print the pages that will be used to align the black plane to the printer frame. This also allows the black skew adjustment to be adjusted with the printhead alignment screw.
•
Once the black skew is aligned, the mounting screws will be fully tightened, and the next steps of alignment can be completed.

When installing the printhead, visually center the printhead and center the hole in the frame (A).
