    Loading print media into the priority feeder
    The priority feeder is located at the front of the printer, just above Tray 1. Use the priority feeder to make quick runs of print 
    media types or sizes that are not currently loaded in Tray 1.
    For information on acceptable print media and quantity for use in the priority feeder, see Types of print media on page 46. 
    Using only specified print media helps prevent jams and print quality problems.
    1Adjust the guides to the width of the print media.
    2Place selected print media, with side to be 
    printed face up, at the center of the priority 
    feeder, resting on the Tray 1 paper cover.
    3Push selected print media into the printer 
    until the print media stops.
    Note:Do not force print media into the 
    feeder. Forcing media causes 
    jams.
    Insert envelopes with flap side down and 
    return address first. The stamp area will feed 
    through last.
    Hold transparencies by the edges, and avoid 
    touching the print side. Oil from fingers can 
    affect print quality.
    Load letterhead face up, top of sheet first.

    Print media tasks and tips
    Preventing jams
    Avoid most jams by correctly loading print media.
    Do not load wrinkled, creased, or damp print media.
    Never mix media types within a tray.
    Flex, fan, and straighten paper before loading.
    Do not exceed maximum stack height.
    Make sure guides and backstop are positioned lightly against the loaded print media.
    Before loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together.
    Do not use envelopes that:
    –Have excessive curl
    –Are stuck together
    –Are damaged in any way
    –Contain windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossments
    –Have metal clasps, string ties, or metal folding bars
    –Have postage stamps attached
    –Have exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed position
    –Are self-sealing
    Use only recommended print media. See the Card Stock & Label Guide available on our Lexmark Web site at 
    www.lexmark.com for more information about which print media provides optimum results for your printing 
    environment.
    See the Card Stock & Label Guide for detailed information prior to purchasing large quantities of customized print 
    media.

    Clearing jams
    When a jam occurs, the printer stops, and the Error light on the operator panel blinks. To determine the location of the jam, 
    view the secondary light sequences (see Operator panel codes for the Lexmark E120 on page 12 or Operator panel 
    codes for the Lexmark E120n on page 28). Prepare the printer for jam removal by opening the paper support out and 
    removing all printed pages from the output bin. Then, follow these steps to clear the entire paper path. 
    1Open the rear door by sliding the door release button to the right.
    2Remove any lodged print media from the paper path.
    Warning:When rear door is open, be careful not to touch the attached roller. Touching the roller can cause 
    contamination and affect print quality. Do not leave the rear door open for an extended amount of 
    time. Exposure to light will damage the blue drum of the long-life photoconductor kit and affect print 
    quality.

    Printing from the priority feeder
    The multiple-sheet priority feeder is located at the front of the printer just above Tray 1. It has an adjustable guide on each 
    side, and uses the Tray 1 paper cover as a print media path. Use the priority feeder to make quick runs of print media types 
    or sizes that are not currently loaded in Tray 1. Never mix media types within a tray. For information on acceptable print 
    media and quantity for use in the priority feeder, see Types of print media on page 46.
    If both the priority feeder and Tray 1 are loaded with print media, the printer will pick from the priority feeder until the print 
    media is empty, then continue printing from Tray 1. To print to a specific print media type from the priority feeder, follow 
    these instructions.

    1Click FileÆ Print.
    2Click Preferences (or Options, Printer, or Setup, depending on the application) to view the printer driver settings.

    The printer displays the Load priority feeder light sequence on the operator panel; see Load media on page 19 or 
    page 36.
    8Adjust the priority feeder guides to the width of the print media, and make sure the Tray 1 paper cover is in place.
    9Place selected print media with side to be printed facing up, at the center of the priority feeder. If you load more 
    than one sheet, the stack should rest on the Tray 1 paper cover.
    Hold transparencies by the edges, and avoid touching the print side. Oil from fingers can affect print quality.
    Insert envelopes with the flap side down and return address first. The stamp area will feed through last.
