Printing Multiple Page Images on One Page (N-Up
Printing)
The Multipage Printing (N-up) setting is used to print multiple page images on a single page. For example, 2-
up means two page images are printed on one page.
The printer uses the Multipage Order, Multipage View, and Multipage Border settings to determine the order
and orientation of the page images, and whether a border is printed around each page image.

Printing a Booklet
The  Booklet  setting lets you print multiple pages in booklet form without having to re-format your document
so the pages print in the proper order. The pages print so the finished collated document may be folded
along the center of each page to form a booklet.
If the document contains many pages, a booklet may have too many pages to fold easily. If you are printing
a fairly large booklet, you might want to use the  Sheets per Bundle option to specify how many physical
pages are put into one bundle. The printer prints the necessary number of bundles, which you can then bind
into one booklet. Printing in bundles helps the outside edge of the pages line up more evenly.
You must specify whether or not you want to print using any duplex printing options before you select to
print using the booklet function. Once you choose  Print Using Booklet, the controls for the duplex options
become inactive and remain at the last setting used.

Storing Supplies
Storing Print Media
Use the following guidelines for proper print media storage. These help avoid paper feeding problems and
uneven print quality.
For best results, store print media in an environment where the temperature is approximately 21°C
(70°F) and the relative humidity is 40%.
Store cartons of print media on a pallet or shelf, rather than directly on the floor.
If you store individual packages of print media out of the original carton, ensure that they rest on a flat
surface so the edges do not buckle or curl.
Do not place anything on top of the print media packages.
Storing the Toner Cartridge
Store the toner cartridge in the original packaging until you are ready to install it.
Do not store the toner in: 
						

							Temperatures greater than 40°C (104°F).
An environment with extreme changes in humidity or temperature.
Direct sunlight.
Dusty places.
A car for a long period of time.
An environment where corrosive gases are present.
An environment with salty air.
Replacing Supplies
Replacing the Imaging Drum
You can determine approximately how full the imaging drum is by printing the printer settings configuration
sheet. This helps you decide when you might need to order replacement supplies.
To ensure print quality and to avoid damage to the printer, the printer stops operating after the imaging
drum has reached a maximum of 30,000 pages. The printer automatically notifies you before the imaging
drum reaches this point.
While the printer may continue to function properly after the imaging drum has reached its official end-of-
life, print quality significantly decreases until the imaging drum stops operating at the maximum of 30,000
pages.
NOTICE: When replacing the imaging drum, do not leave it exposed to direct light for an extended
period of time. Extended light exposure can cause print quality problems.
Turn the printer off.
1.
Open the front cover by pressing the door release button on the right side of the printer and lowering
the cover.
