Printing on Special Print Materials
Printing on Envelopes
• Only use envelopes recommended for your printer. Before 
loading envelopes in the tray, make sure that they are 
undamaged and are not stuck together. 
• Do not feed stamped envelopes.
• Never use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated 
linings, or self-stick adhesives. 
To print on envelope:
1Squeeze the paper length guide and slide it out to its full 
length.
2Load a sheet of envelope in the tray, with the flap side 
down
. The end of the envelope with the stamp area 
enters the printer first. 
3Slide in the paper length guide until it lightly touches the 
end of the paper stack.
4Slide the paper width guide to the edge of the envelope 
without causing it to bend.
CAUTION: If you print 20 envelopes in succession, the surface 
of the top cover may become hot. Please exercise caution.
5When you print, set the paper source to Manual Feed and the 
paper type to 
Envelope, and select the appropriate size in the 
software application. For details, see the 
Software Section.
6Press the   button on the printer to start feeding. 
Printing on Labels
• Only use labels recommended for your printer.
• Verify that the labels’ adhesive material can tolerate a fusing 
temperature of 180 °C (356 °F) for 0.1 seconds.
• Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material 
between the 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.
• Never print on the same sheet of labels more than once, or 
print on a partial sheet of labels.
• Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet 
or are wrinkled or damaged in any way.
• To prevent labels from sticking together, do not let the 
printed label sheets stack up as they are printed out. 
To print on label:
1Squeeze the paper length guide and slide it out to its full 
length.
2Load a sheet of label in the tray, with the print side up 
and the top, short edge in first
. Adjust the guides to fit 
the length and width of the label. 
3When you print, set the paper source to Manual Feed and the 
paper type to
 Labels, and select the appropriate size in the 
software application. For details, see the 
Software Section.
4Press the   button on the printer to start feeding.

Printing on Transparencies
• Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the 
machine.
• Do not leave them in the 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 and 
coated paper carefully.
• To avoid fading, do not expose the printed transparencies to 
prolonged sunlight.
CAUTION: It is not recommended to use paperbacked 
transparencies such as Xerox 3R91334, which can cause a jam 
or be scratched.
To print on transparency:
1Squeeze the paper length guide and slide it out to its full 
length.
2Load a sheet of transparency in the tray, with the print 
side up and the top, short edge in first
. Adjust the 
guides to fit the length and width of the transparency. 
3When you print, set the paper source to Manual Feed and 
the paper type to
 Transparency, and select the 
appropriate size in the software application. For details, 
see the 
Software Section.
4Press the   button on the printer to start feeding.
Printing on Preprinted Paper
• Preprinted paper is paper that has some type of printing on 
it before it is sent through the printer (paper that has a 
preprinted logo at the top of the page, for example).
• 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 180 °C (356 
°F) for 0.1 seconds.
• Ink on letterhead must be non-flammable and should not 
adversely affect printer rollers.
• Forms and letterhead should be sealed in 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 of preprinted paper, 
reducing the print quality.
To print on preprinted paper:
1Squeeze the paper length guide and slide it out to its full 
length.
2Load letterhead in the tray, with the print side up and 
the top and short edge
 first. Adjust the guides to fit the 
edge of the paper stack.
3When you print, set the paper source to Manual Feed and 
the paper type to 
Preprinted, and select the appropriate 
paper size in the software application. 
For details, see the 
Software Section. 
4Press the   button on the printer to start feeding.

Printing on Card Stock or Custom-sized 
Materials
• Postcards, 3in by 5in (index) cards, and other custom-sized 
materials can be printed with your printer. The minimum size 
is 3in by 5in (76mm by 127mm) and the maximum size is 
8.5in by 14in (216mm by 356mm).
• Always insert the short edge into the tray first. If you want 
to print in landscape mode, make this selection using your 
software. Inserting these materials long edge first may 
cause a paper jam.
• Do not print on material smaller than 3in (76mm) wide or 
5in (127mm) long.
• In the software application, set margins at least 4mm away 
from the edges of the material.
To print on card stock:
1Squeeze the paper length guide and slide it out to its full 
length.
2Load print material in the tray, with the print side up 
and the short edge first
. Adjust the guides to fit the 
length and width of the material.
NOTE: If you experience jams with card stock feeding, turn 
the paper around and try again.
3When you print, set the paper source to Manual Feed and 
select the appropriate size and type in the software 
application. 
For details, see the Software Section.

Managing Toner Cartridges
Toner Cartridge Storage
To get the maximum results from a toner cartridge, keep the 
following guidelines in mind:
• Do not remove toner cartridges from their packages until 
you are ready to use them. 
• Do not refill toner cartridges. 
The printer warranty does 
not cover damage caused by using a refilled cartridge.
• Store toner cartridges in the same environment as the 
printer.
• To prevent damage to toner cartridges, do not expose them 
to light for more than a few minutes.
Toner Cartridge Life Expectancy
The life of a toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner 
that your print jobs require. When printing text at  5% 
coverage, the toner cartridges last an average of 2,000 pages 
for black and white printing and 1,000 pages for each colour 
printing. 
However, the toner cartridge that is shipped with the 
printer prints 1,500 pages for black and white, 700 pages for 
colours.
Redistributing Toner
When a toner cartridge is low on toner, faded or light areas may 
appear. It is also possible that coloured images may be printed 
with incorrect colours due to flawed mixing of toner colours 
when one of the coloured toner cartridges is low on toner. The 
Status Monitor program window appears on the computer 
telling you which colour cartridge is low on toner. Also, when 
the toner LED, on the control panel, indicating each individual 
toner cartridge according to its colour, blinks, the toner 
cartridge is low.
The printer is able to continue to print using the current toner 
cartridge until the Status Monitor program window appears on 
the computer telling you to replace the cartridge.
You may be able to temporarily improve print quality by 
redistributing the toner.
To redistribute the toner:
1Open the front cover.
2Pull the corresponding toner cartridge out to remove from 
the printer.
3Holding the toner cartridge, shake thoroughly it from side 
to side to redistribute the toner.

4Grasp the toner cartridge and align it with the 
corresponding slot inside the printer. Insert it back into its 
slot until it clicks into place.
NOTE: If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth 
and wash it in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.
5Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely 
closed.
Replacing Toner Cartridges
The printer uses four colours and has a different toner cartridge 
for each one: yellow (Y), magenta (M), cyan (C), and black (K).
When the Toner LED, on the control panel, indicating each 
individual toner cartridge according to its colour, lights, and the 
 LED lights red, the toner cartridge is totally exhausted. 
Your printer stops printing.
Also, the Status Monitor program window appears on the 
computer telling you to replace the cartridge.
NOTE:The print quality may get poor if the refilled toner 
cartridge is installed, since its characteristics may 
significantly differ from the genuine.
To replace the toner cartridge:
1Turn the printer off, then wait a few minutes for the printer 
to cool.
2Open the front cover.
3Pull the corresponding toner cartridge out to remove from 
the printer.
4Take a new toner cartridge out of its package. 
5Holding the toner cartridge, shake thoroughly it from side 
to side to distribute the toner.  
6Remove the cartridges cap.
