paper, reducing print quality.
Used paper
When loading used paper, printed side should be facing up with an uncurled
edge at the front. If you experience problems with paper feed, turn the paper
around. Note that print quality is not guaranteed.
•
Used paper must be printed with heat-resistant ink that will not melt,
vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when subjected to the
machine’s fusing temperature for 0.1 second. Check your machine’s
specification to view the fusing temperature (about 170°C(338 °F).
•
Used paper ink must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect
machine rollers.
•
Before you load used paper, verify that the ink on the paper is dry.
During the fusing process, wet ink can come off used paper, reducing
print quality.

USING THE OUTPUT SUPPORT
The surface of the output tray may become hot if you print a large
number of pages at once. Make sure that you do not touch the
surface, and do not allow children near it.
The printed pages stack on the output support, and the output support will
help the printed pages to align. Unfold the output support.
