•
Selecting print media
You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper, envelopes, labels, and transparencies. Always use print media that meet the guidelines for use with your printer. Print media that does not meet the guidelines outlined in this user’s guide may cause the following problems:
• Poor print quality
• Increased paper jams
• Premature wear on the printer.
Properties, such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture content, are important factors that affect the printer’s performance and the output quality. When you choose print materials, consider the following:
• Desired outcome: The print media you choose should be appropriate for your project.
• Size: You can use any size media that fits easily within the paper guides of paper tray.
• Weight: Your printer supports print media weights as follows:
- 60 to 105 g/m
2
(16 to 28 lb bond) for Tray 2 and optional tray 3
- 60 to 163 g/m 2 (16 to 43 lb bond) for Tray 1(MPT)
- 75 to 90 g/m
2
(20 to 24 lb) for duplex printing
- Over 105 g/m
2
(28 lb bond) for index card
• Brightness: Some print media are whiter than others and produce sharper, more vibrant images.
• Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the print media affects how crisp the printing looks on the paper.
Notes
• Some print media may meet all of the guidelines in this section and still not produce satisfactory results. This may be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and humidity levels, or other variables over which Xerox has no control.
• Before purchasing large quantities of print media, ensure that it meets the requirements specified in this user’s guide.
Caution
Using print media that does not meet these specifications may cause problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are not covered by Xerox’s warranty or service agreements.

Guidelines for selecting and storing print media
When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other print materials, keep these guidelines in mind:
• Always use print media that conform with the specifications listed on
• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause paper jams and poor print quality.
• For the best print quality, use only high quality copier grade paper specifically recommended for use in laser printers.
• Avoid using the following media types:
- Paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or a texture that is too smooth or too rough
- Erasable bond paper
- Multi-paged paper
- Synthetic paper and thermally reactive paper
- Carbonless paper and Tracing paper
• Use of these types of paper could result in paper jams, chemical smells, and damage to your printer.
• Store print media in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use it.
Place cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor. Do not place heavy objects on top of the paper, whether it is packaged or unpackaged. Keep it away from moisture or other conditions that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.
• Store unused print media at temperatures between 15 and 30° C
(59 to 86° F). The relative humidity should be between 10 and 70%.
• Store unused print media in a moisture-proof wrap, such as a plastic container or bag, to prevent dust and moisture from contaminating your paper.
• Load special media types one sheet at a time through tray 1(MPT) to avoid paper jams.
• To prevent print media, such as transparencies and label sheets, from sticking together, remove them as they print out.
Guidelines for special print media
Media type
Envelopes
Guidelines
• Successful printing on envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes. When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors:
- Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed 90 g/m
2
(24 lb) or jamming may occur.
- Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with less than 10 mm
(0.39 inches) curl, and should not contain air.
- Condition: Envelopes should not be wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged.
- Temperature: You should use envelopes that are compatible with the heat and pressure of the printer during operation.
• Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp and well creased folds.
• Do not use stamped envelopes.
• Do not use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated lining, self-adhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.
• Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes.
• Be sure the seam at both ends of the envelope extends all the way to the corner of the envelope.
Acceptable
Unacceptable
• Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with the printer’s fusing temperature of 200° C (392° F) for
0.1 second. The extra flaps and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams, and may even damage the fuser.
• For the best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm (0.6 inches) from the edges of the envelope.
• Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.
5.3
<Loading print media>
Media type
Transparencies
Labels
Card stock or custom-sized materials
Guidelines
• To avoid damaging the printer, use only transparencies designed for use in laser printers.
• Transparencies used in the printer must be able to withstand 200° C (392° F), the printer’s fusing temperature.
• Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the printer.
• Do not leave them in paper tray for long periods of time. Dust and dirt may accumulate on them, resulting in spotty printing.
• To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them carefully.
• To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to prolonged sunlight.
• Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled, curled, or have any torn edges.
• To avoid damaging the printer, use only labels designed for use in laser printers.
• When selecting labels, consider the following factors:
- Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 200° C (392° F), the printer’s fusing temperature.
- Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.
- Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm (0.5 inches) of curl in any direction.
- Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation.
• Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between labels. Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause damage to printer components.
• Do not run a sheet of labels through the printer more than once. The adhesive backing is designed for only a single pass through the printer.
• Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.
• Do not print on media smaller than 76 mm
(3 inches) wide or 127 mm (5 inches) long.
• In the software application, set margins at least
6.4 mm (0.25 inches) away from the edges of the material.
Media type
Preprinted paper
Guidelines
• Letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when subjected to the printer’s fusing temperature of 200° C (392° F) for 0.1 second.
• Letterhead ink must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect printer rollers.
• Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a moisture-proof wrapping to prevent changes during storage.
• Before you load preprinted paper, such as forms and letterhead, verify that the ink on the paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper, reducing print quality.
Loading paper
Load the print media you use for the majority of your print jobs in Tray 2.
Tray 2 can hold a maximum of 500 sheets of 75 g/m 2 (20 lb) plain paper.
You can purchase an optional tray 3 and attach it below the standard tray to load an additional 500 sheets of paper. For order information for an

3 Load the paper with the side to be printed on facing up.
3 Squeeze the paper width guides and slide them against the stack of paper until they lightly touches the side of the stack.
Notes
• Do not push the paper width guide far enough to cause the material to warp.
• If you do not adjust the paper width guide, it may cause paper jams.
Depending on the media type you are using, keep the following loading guidelines:
• Envelopes: Flap side down and with the stamp area on the top left side.
• Transparencies: Print side up and the top with the adhesive strip entering the printer first.
• Labels: Print side up and top short edge entering the printer first.
• Preprinted paper: Design side up with the top edge toward the printer.
5.6
<Loading print media>
• Card stock: Print side up and the short edge entering the printer first.
• Previously printed paper: Previously printed side down with an uncurled edge toward the printer.
Note
Make sure that you have not loaded too much print material.
The print material buckles if you load a stack that is too thick or if you push it in too far.
Caution
When you print on special material like envelopes, labels, transparencies, or cards, the output location should be the
rear cover. Open the rear cover to use it. See page 5.9.
4 Squeeze tray1(MPT) paper width guides and adjust them to the width of the paper. Do not force too much, or the paper will be bent, which will result in a paper jam or skew.
• Make sure to open the rear cover when you print on transparencies.
If not, they may tear while exiting the printer.
Using manual feed mode
You can manually load a sheet of print material in tray1(MPT) if you select Manual Feed in the Source option from the Paper tab when you change print settings to print a document. See the Software Section.

Maintaining the print cartridge
Print cartridge storage
To get the most from the print cartridge, keep the following guidelines in mind:
• Do not remove the print cartridge from its package until ready for use.
• Do not refill the print cartridge. The printer warranty does not cover damage caused by using a refilled cartridge.
• Store print cartridge in the same environment as the printer.
• To prevent damage to the print cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than a few minute.
Expected cartridge life
The print cartridge yield depends on the amount of toner that print jobs require. Average yield for a new print cartridge is 7,000 or 14,000 standard pages in accordance with the ISO/IEC 19752 standard.
(Average yield for the original print cartridge supplied with the machine is 7,000 standard pages.) The actual number may also be different depending on the print density of the pages you print on, and the number of pages may be affected by operating environment, printing interval, media type, and media size. If you print a lot of graphics, you may need to change the cartridge more often.
Checking the remaining toner
You can check the level of toner left in the cartridge.
If you are having print quality problems, this can help you determine if the problem is caused by low toner.
1 Press Menu until System Setup appears on the bottom line of the display press OK.
2 Press the Up/down arrow buttons until Maintenance appears and press OK.
3 Press the Up/down arrow buttons until Supplies Life appears and press OK.
4 Press the Up/down arrow buttons to access Toner Remains and press OK.

Clearing paper jams
Note
When removing paper that is jammed in the printer, if possible always pull the paper in the direction that it normally moves so as not to damage internal components. Always pull firmly and evenly; do not jerk the paper. If the paper tears, ensure that all fragments of paper are removed; otherwise a jam will occur again.
When a paper jam occurs, the Status LED lights red. Open and close the
top cover. The jammed paper will automatically exit the printer.
If the paper does not exit, check the display on the control panel. The message indicating the corresponding location of the paper jam appears. Refer to the table below to locate the paper jam and to clear it:

Tips for avoiding paper jams
By selecting the correct media types, most paper jams can be avoided.
When a paper jam occurs, follow the steps outlined on page 9.1.
• Follow the procedures on page 5.5. Ensure that the adjustable guides
are positioned correctly.
• Do not overload the tray. Ensure that the paper level is below the paper capacity mark on the inside wall of the tray.
• Do not remove paper from tray while your printer is printing.
• Flex, fan, and straighten paper before loading.
• Do not use creased, damp, or highly curled paper.
• Do not mix paper types in a tray.
• Use only recommended print media. See page 5.1.
• Ensure that the recommended print side of print media is facing down in Tray 2 or optional tray 3, or facing up in tray 1(MPT).
• If paper jams occur frequently when you print on A5-sized paper:
Load the paper into the tray with the long edge facing the front of the tray.
In the printer properties window, set the page orientation to be rotated
90 degrees. See the Software Section.
10 Insert the duplex unit into the slot.
11 Close the top cover then the printer will resume printing.

The machine does not print.
Suggested solutions
• Check if the printer driver is installed in your system. Open Unified Driver configurator and switch to the Printers tab in Printers configuration window to look at the list of available printers.
Make sure that your machine is displayed on the list. If not, please, invoke Add new printer wizard to set up your device.
• Check if the printer is paused. Open
Printers configuration and select your machine on the printers list. Look at the description in the Selected printer pane.
If its status contains “(stopped)” string, please, press the Start button. After that normal operation of the printer should be restored. The “stopped” status might be activated when some problems in printing occurred. For instance, this could be an attempt to print document when port is claimed by a scanning application.
• Check if the port is busy. Since functional components of MFP (printer and scanner) share the same I/O interface (port), the situation of simultaneous access of different
“consumer” application to the same port is possible. To avoid possible conflicts, only one of them at a time is allowed to gain control over the device. The other
“consumer” will encounter “device busy” response. You should open ports configuration and select the port assigned to your printer. In the Selected port pane you can see if the port is occupied by some other application. If this is the case, you should wait for completion of the current job or should press Release port button, if you are sure that the present owner is not functioning properly.
• Check if your application has special print option such as “-oraw”. If “-oraw” is specified in the command line parameter then remove it to print properly. For Gimp front-end, select
“print” -> “Setup printer” and edit command line parameter in the command item.

Suggested solutions
The CUPS (Common Unix Printing
System) version distributed with SuSE
Linux 9.2 (cups-1.1.21) has a problem with ipp (Internet Printing Protocol) printing. Use the socket printing instead of ipp or install later version of CUPS (cups-
1.1.22 or higher).
This is a known bug in Ghostscript (until
GNU Ghostscript version 7.05) when the base color space of the document is indexed color space and it is converted through CIE color space. Because
PostScript uses CIE color space for Color
Matching System, you should upgrade
Ghostscript on your system to at least
GNU Ghostscript version 7.06 or later. You can find recent Ghostscript versions at www.ghostscript.com
.
This is a known bug in Ghostscript (until
GNU Ghostscript version 7.xx) when the base color space of the document is indexed RGB color space and it is converted through CIE color space.
Because PostScript uses CIE color space for Color Matching System, you should upgrade Ghostscript on your system to at least GNU Ghostscript version 8.xx or later. You can find recent Ghostscript versions at www.ghostscript.com
.
It is a known problem that occurs when a color printer is used on version 8.51 or earlier of Ghostscript, 64-bit Linux OS, and reported to bugs.ghostscript.com as
Ghostscript Bug 688252. The problem is solved in AFPL Ghostscript v. 8.52 or above. Download the latest version of
AFPL Ghostscript from http:// sourceforge.net/projects/ghostscript/ and install it to solve this problem.
Please avoid changing print job parameters (via LPR GUI, for example) while a print job is in progress. Known versions of CUPS server break the print job whenever print options are changed and then try to restart the job from the beginning. Since Unified Linux Driver locks port while printing, the abrupt termination of the driver keeps the port locked and therefore unavailable for subsequent print jobs. If this situation occurred, please, try to release the port.
Condition
The printer does not print PDF file correctly.
Some parts of graphics, text, or illustrations are missing.
Suggested solutions
Incompatibility between the PDF file and the Acrobat products:
Printing the PDF file as an image may solve this problem. Turn on Print As
Image from the Acrobat printing options.
N OTE : It will take longer to print when you print a PDF file as an image.
Common Macintosh problems
Condition
The printer does not print a document from
Acrobat Reader.
The document has printed, but the print job has not disappeared from the spooler in Mac
OS 10.3.2.
Some letters are not displayed normally during the Cover page printing.
When printing a document in Mac OS with Acrobat Reader 6.0 or higher, colors print incorrectly.
Suggested solutions
You should change the Print Method option to Print as Image when you print from Acrobat Reader.
Update your Mac OS to OS 10.3.3 or higher.
This problem is caused because Mac OS can not create the font during the Cover page printing. English alphabet and numbers are displayed normally at the
Cover page.
This problem is caused because the resolution setting in the printer driver may not be matched with that in Acrobat
Reader.
Make sure that the resolution setting in your printer driver matches that in
Acrobat Reader.

Precautions when installing accessories
Disconnect the power cord:
Never remove the control board cover while the power is being supplied.
To avoid the possibility of an electrical shock, always disconnect the power cord when installing or removing ANY internal or external accessories.
Discharge static electricity:
The control board and internal accessories (network interface card and memory DIMM) are sensitive to static electricity. Before installing or removing any internal accessories, discharge static electricity from your body by touching something metal, such as the metal back plate on any device plugged into a grounded power source. If you walk round before finishing installation, discharge any static electricity once again.
Installing a memory DIMM
Your printer has a dual in-line memory module (DIMM) slot. Use this
DIMM slot to install additional memory.
Phaser 3600/B has 64 MB, and Phaser 3600N or Phaser 3600/DN has
128 MB of memory. The memory can be expanded to 512 MB.
For order information for optional memory DIMMs, see page 7.1.
1 Turn the printer power off and unplug all cables from the printer.
2 Remove the duplex-slot cover from the back of the printer. If you installed an optional duplex unit, remove it from the printer.

- Print Odd Pages: Your printer prints only the odd numbered pages of the document.
- Print Even Pages: Your printer prints only the even numbered pages of the document.
• Use Printer Fonts: When Use Printer Fonts is checked, the printer uses the fonts that are stored in its memory (resident fonts) to print your document, rather than downloading the fonts used in your document. Because downloading fonts takes time, selecting this option can speed up your printing time.
When using Printer fonts, the printer will try to match the fonts used in your document to those stored in its memory. If, however, you use fonts in your document that are very different from those resident in the printer, your printed output will appear very different from what it looks like on the screen.
This feature is available only when you use the PCL printer driver.

Using Overlays
What is an Overlay?
An overlay is text and/or images stored in the computer hard disk drive (HDD) as a special file format that can be printed on any document. Overlays are often used to take the place of preprinted forms and letterhead paper. Rather than using preprinted letterhead, you can create an overlay containing the exact same information that is currently on your letterhead. To print a letter with your company’s letterhead, you do not need to load preprinted letterhead paper in the printer. You need only tell the printer to print the letterhead overlay on your document.
Creating a New Page Overlay
