Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
You can print on a variety of print materials, such as plain paper,
envelopes, labels, transparencies and so on. See “Paper
Specifications” on page G.3. To get the best possible print
quality, use only high-quality copier-grade paper.
When you choose print materials, consider the following:
• Desired outcome: The paper you choose should be
appropriate for the project.
• Size: You can use any size paper that fits easily within the
paper adjusters of the paper tray.
• Weight : Your printer supports paper weight as follows:
2
-16~28 lbs (60~105 g/m ) bond for the Tray1 or
optional Tray2
2
-16~43 lbs (60~163 g/m ) bond for the Multi-Purpose Tray
• Brightness: Some papers are whiter than others and
produce sharper, more vibrant images.
• Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the paper affects
how crisp the printing looks on the paper.
CAUTION: Using a material that does not conform to the
specification listed in the paper specification can cause problems
that may require service. This service is not covered by the
warranty or service agreements.

Guidelines for Paper and Special Materials
When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special
materials, keep these guidelines in mind:
• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper
can cause paper jams and poor print quality.
• Use cut-sheet paper only. You cannot use multi-part paper.
• Use only high-quality, copier grade paper for the best print
quality.
• Do not use paper that has been already printed on or that has
been fed through a photocopier.
• Do not use paper with irregularities, such as tabs or staples.
• Do not attempt to load any tray during printing and never
overfill the tray. This could cause a paper jam.
• Avoid paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or texture
that is too smooth or too rough.
• Coloured paper should be of the same high quality as white
photocopy paper. The pigments must withstand the printer’s
fusing temperature of 400°F (205°C) for 0.1 second without
deterioration. Do not use paper with a coloured coating that
was added after the paper was produced.
• Preprinted forms must be printed with nonflammable, heat-
resistant ink that do not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous
emissions when subject to the printer’s approximately 400°F
(205°C) fusing temperature for 0.1 second.
• Store paper in its ream wrapper until ready to use. 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 paper away from moisture, direct sunlight or other
conditions that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.

Selecting the Output Location
The printer has two output locations; the rear output tray and
the top output tray.
Top output tray
Rear output tray
4
To use the top output tray, be sure that the rear output tray is
closed. To use the rear output tray, open it.
NOTES:
• If paper coming out of the top output tray has problems, such as
excessive curl, try printing to the rear output tray.
• To avoid paper jams, do not open or close the rear output tray
while the printer is printing.
Printing to the Top Output Tray (Face down)
The top output tray collects paper face-down, in correct order.
The top output tray should be used for most print jobs.
NOTE: If you continuously print many pages, the surface of the
output tray may become hot. Be careful not to touch the surface.
USING PRINT MATERIALS 4.5
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Printing to the Rear Output Tray (Face up)
The printer always prints to the rear output tray if it is open.
Paper comes out of the printer face-up, with the last page on
top.
Printing from the Multi-Purpose Tray to the rear output tray
provides the straight paper path. Opening the rear output tray
might improve output quality with the following:
• over 100 sheets of paper continuously
• envelopes
• labels
• small custom-size paper
• postcards
2
2
• paper lighter than 60 g/m (16 lb) or heavier than 105 g/m
(28 lb)
• transparencies: some special transparencies may have
stacking problem by curl. In that case, please use the top
output tray (face down).
To open the rear output tray:
1 Open the rear door by pulling it down. The cover functions
as the output tray.
CAUTION: The fusing area at the rear portion of the inside of
your printer is hot when powered. Be cautions.

2 Pull the extender to extend the output tray when using long
paper.
3 When you no longer need to print using the face up tray,
slide the extender to its place and close the tray. The pages
will stack on the top output tray.
4
NOTE: The rear output tray can hold up to 100 sheets of paper. If
the tray is overloaded with printed pages, they may fall from the
printer.
Loading Paper
Proper paper loading helps prevent paper jams and ensure
trouble-free printing. Do not remove the paper tray while a job
is printing. Doing so may cause a paper jam. See “Sizes and
Capacities” on page 4.3 for acceptable paper size and capacities
for each tray.
The paper level bar on the front of the paper tray(s) shows the
amount of paper currently left in the tray. When the tray is
empty, the indicator of the bar is at the bottom.

Using the Multi-Purpose Tray
Multi-Purpose Tray is located in the front of your printer. It can
be closed when you are not using it, making the printer more
compact.
Multi-Purpose Tray
The Multi-Purpose Tray can hold several sizes and types of
paper, such as transparencies, cards and envelopes. You may
also want to use the Multi-Purpose Tray for single page print jobs
on letterheads, coloured paper for use as separator sheets, or
other special materials that you do not normally keep in the
paper tray. You can load approximately 100 sheets of plain
paper, 10 envelopes, 50 transparencies, 10 card stocks or 25
labels at a time.

Printing on Preprinted Paper
Preprinted paper is paper that has some type of printing placed
on it before it is sent through the printer (letterhead paper that
has a preprinted logo at the top of the page, for example).
Guidelines
• Letterheads 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 400 °F
(205 °C) for 0.1 second.
• Ink on letterheads must be non-flammable and should not
adversely affect any printer rollers.
• Forms and letterheads should be sealed in a moisture-proof
wrapping to prevent changes during storage.
4
• Before you load preprinted paper as forms and letterheads,
verify that the ink on the paper is dry. During the fusing
process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper.
1 Load letterheads into the tray as shown below. Adjust the
guides to fit the width of the paper stack.

Using Overlays
What is an Overlay?
An overlay is text and/or images stored in the computer hard
disk drive (HDD) can be printed together with variable data
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.

Maintaining the Toner Cartridge
Toner cartridge storage
To get the maximum results from the toner cartridge, keep the
following guidelines in mind:
• Do not remove the toner cartridge from its package until
ready for use.
• Do not refill the toner cartridge. 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 the toner cartridge, do not expose it to
light for more than a few minute.
Toner cartridge life expectancy
The life of the toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner
that print jobs require. When printing text at 5% coverage, a
new toner cartridge lasts an average of 8,000 pages. (The
original toner cartridge supplied with the printer lasts an
average of 4,000 pages.)
6
Saving toner
To save toner, press the Toner Save button on the printer
control panel. The button backlight will be lit. You can also
enable Toner Save mode in the printer properties or from the
control panel menu. Refer to “Using the Toner Save Mode” on
page 5.9 and “Using Control Panel Menus” on page 3.5.
Selecting this option will extend the life of the toner cartridge
and reduce your cost per page, but it will reduce the print
quality.

more than a few minutes.
3 Gently shake the toner cartridge from side to side 5 for 6
times to redistribute the toner evenly.

Cleaning the Printer
To maintain the print quality, follow the cleaning procedures
below each time the toner cartridge is replaced or if print quality
problems occur.
NOTES:
• Do not use ammonia-based cleaners or volatile solvents, such as
thinner, on or around the printer. These can damage the printer.
• While cleaning the inside of the printer, be careful not to touch
the transfer roller (located underneath the toner cartridge). Oil
from your fingers can cause print quality problems.
CAUTIONS: Cleaning the cabinet of the printer with surfactants
containing large amounts of alcohol, solvent or other strong
substances can discolor or crack the cabinet .
Cleaning the Outside
Clean the cabinet of the printer with a soft, lint-free cloth, You
can dampen the cloth slightly with water, but be careful not to
let any water drip onto the printer or inside of it.
6
Cleaning the Inside
During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can
accumulate inside the printer. This buildup can cause print
quality problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Cleaning
the inside of the printer will eliminate or reduce these problems.
Cleaning inside the printer
1 Turn the printer off and unplug the power cord, then wait
for the printer to cool.
2 Open the top cover and remove the toner cartridge.

affect global settings.
Maybe you do not have the GTK libraries installed. These
usually come with most Linux distributions, but you may
have to install them manually. Refer to your distribution’s
installation manual for more details about installing
additional packages.
I am using the KDE
desktop but the
configuration tool and
LLPR won’t start.
I just installed this
package but can’t find
entries in the KDE/
Gnome menus.
Some versions of the KDE or GNOME desktop
environments may require that you restart your session
for the changes to take effect.
Some printers have conflicting settings, meaning that
some settings for two options can’t be selected at the
same time. When you change a setting and the Printer
Package detects such a conflict, the conflicting option is
changed to a “No Choice” value, and you have to choose
an option that does not conflict before being able to submit
the changes.
I get a “Some options are
not selected” error
message while editing the
printer settings.
In some conditions, it may not be possible to change the
default queue. This happens with some variants of LPRng,
especially on recent RedHat systems that use the
“printconf” database of queues.
7
When using printconf, the /etc/printcap file is
automatically refreshed from the database of printers
managed by the system (usually through the “printtool”
command), and the queues in /etc/printcap.local are
appended to the resulting file. Since the default queue in
LPRng is defined as the first queue in /etc/printcap,
therefore it is not possible for the Linux Printer Package to
change the default when some queues have otherwise
been defined using printtool.
I can’t make a printer the
system default.
LPD systems identify the default queue as the one named
“lp”. Thus, if there is already a queue by this name, and if

adequately achieved if the PostScript data conforms to the
Adobe Document Structing Conventions. Problems may
arise when using N-up and other features relying on post-
processing if the document being printed isn’t compliant.
Legacy BSD lpr systems have a hard limitation on the
length of the option string that can be passed to the
printing system. As such, if you selected a number of
different options, the length of the options may be
exceeded and some of your choices won’t be passed to the
programmes responsible for implementing them. Try to
select less options that deviate from the defaults, to save
on memory usage.
I am using BSD lpr
(Slackware, Debian, older
distributions) and some
options chosen in LLPR
don’t seem to take effect.
Most Unix applications that offer a Landscape orientation
option in their printing options will generate correct
PostScript code that should be printed as is. In that case,
you need to make sure that you leave the LLPR option to
its default Portrait setting, to avoid unwanted rotations of
the page that would result in a cropped output.
I am trying to print a
document in Landscape
mode, but it prints
rotated and cropped.

format, some earlier versions of CUPS (1.1.10 and before)

correctly. When going through LLPR to print, the Printer
Package will work around this issue by converting the data
to regular PostScript. However, if your application
bypasses LLPR and feeds EPS data to CUPS, the document
may not print correctly.
To be able to configure and use SMB-shared printers (such
as printers shared on a Windows machine), you need to
have a correct installation of the SAMBA package that
enables that feature. The “smbclient” command should be
available and usable on your system.
I can’t print to a SMB
(Windows) printer.
Most Unix applications will expect a command like the
regular “lpr” command to be non-interactive and thus
return immediately. Since LLPR is waiting for user input
before passing the job on to the print spooler, very often
the application will wait for the process to return, and thus
will appear to be frozen (its windows won’t refresh). This is
normal and the application should resume functioning
correctly after the user exits LLPR.
My application seems to
be frozen while LLPR is
running.

Problem
Possible Cause and Solution
It can be specified in the “Add Printer” dialogue of the
configuration tool, if you don’t use the CUPS printing
system. Unfortunately, CUPS currently doesn’t allow to
specify the IP address of SMB printers, so you will have to
be able to browse the resource with Samba in order to be
able to print.
How do I specify the IP

There may be some local options defined in your ~/
.lpoptions file, which is manipulated by the lpoptions

Most printing systems will not run as the super-user but as
a special user (usually “lp”). Therefore, make sure that the
file you have chosen to print to is accessible to the user
owning the spooler daemon.
Unfortunately, some Unix applications may generate non-

Ghostscript, or even the printer itself in PostScript mode.

About the Remote Control Panel
DOS users have access to many printer features through specific
DOS printer drivers; however, many software manufactures do
not develop printer drivers for their software programmes. Your
printer provides the software control panel for improved printer
control when DOS printer drivers are not available or when
certain print settings are not available through DOS software
programmes.
NOTE: The printer’s Remote Control Panel is not a printer driver.
It should be used to set print settings that are not available
through DOS software programmes. Printer drivers are supplied by
the manufacturers of your DOS software programmes. If your DOS
software Programme does not include a printer driver for your
printer, contact the manufacturer of the software or use one of the
alternate printer drivers.
Installing the Remote Control Panel

• Jam Recovery determines what action the printer should
take when a paper jam occurs. If it is unchecked, the printer
does not reprint a page that has jammed. If it is checked, the
printer keeps the image in memory for a printed page until
the printer signals that the page has successfully printed. The
printer reprints all jammed pages.
• Toner save determines the toner quantity the printer should
use when printing. If it is checked, the printer conserves
toner when printing. The default value is unchecked, which
provides 100% usage.

Paper Specifications
Overview
Your printer accepts a variety of print materials, such as cut-
sheet paper (including up to 100% recycled fiber content
paper), envelopes, labels, transparencies and custom-size
paper. Properties, such as weight, composition, grain and
moisture content, are important factors affecting the printer’s
performance and the output quality. Paper that does not meet
the guidelines outlined in this User’s Guide can cause the
following problems:
• Poor print quality
• Increased paper jams
• Premature wear on the printer.
NOTES:
• Some paper may meet all of the guidelines in this guide and still
not produce satisfactory results. This may be the result of
improper handling, unacceptable temperature and humidity
levels, or other variables over which Tally has no control.
• Before purchasing large quantities of paper, ensure that the
paper meets the requirements specified in this User’s Guide.
CAUTION: Using paper that does not meet these specifications
may cause problems, requiring repairs. These repairs are not
covered by the Tally warranty or service agreements.

Guidelines for Using Paper
For the best result, use conventional 75 g/m2 (20 lb) paper.
Ensure that the paper is of good quality, and free of cuts, nicks,
tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles, voids, and curled or
bent edges.
If you are unsure of what type of paper you are loading, such as
bond or recycled paper, check the label on the package.

NOTES:
• Do not use letterhead paper printed with low-temperature inks,
such as those used in some types of thermography.
• Do not use raised or embossed letterhead.
• The printer uses heat and pressure to fuse toner to the paper.
Insure that any coloured paper or preprinted forms use inks that
are compatible with this fusing temperature (205 °C or 405 °F
for 0.1 second).

Printer and Paper Storage Environment
Paper storage environmental conditions directly affect the feed
operation.
Ideally, the printer and paper storage environment should be at
or near room temperature, and not too dry or humid. Remember
that paper is hygroscopic; it absorbs and loses moisture rapidly.
Heat works with humidity to damage paper. Heat causes the
moisture in paper to evaporate, while cold causes it to condense
on the sheets. Heating systems and air conditioners remove
most of the humidity from a room. As paper is opened and used,
it loses moisture, causing streaks and smudging. Humid
weather or water coolers can cause the humidity to increase in
a room. As paper is opened and used it absorbs any excess
moisture, causing light print and dropouts. Also, as paper loses
and gains moisture it can become distorted. This can cause
paper jams.
Care should be taken not to purchase more paper than can be
used in a short time (about 3 months). Paper stored for long
periods may experience heat and moisture extremes, which can
cause damage. Planning is important to prevent damage to
large supplies of paper.
Unopened paper in sealed reams can remain stable for several
months before use. Opened packages of paper have more
potential for environment damage, especially if they are not
wrapped with a moisture-proof barrier.
The paper storage environment should be properly maintained
to ensure optimum printer performance. The required condition
is 20° to 24°C (68° to 75°F), with a relative humidity of 45% to
55%. The following guidelines should be considered when
evaluating the paper’s storage environment:
• Paper should be stored at or near room temperature.
• The air should not be too dry or too humid.
• The best way to store an opened ream of paper is to rewrap it
tightly in its moisture-proof wrapping. If the printer
environment is subject to extremes, unwrap only the amount
of paper to be used during the day’s operation to prevent
unwanted moisture changes.

Envelopes
Envelope construction is critical. Envelope fold lines can vary
considerably, not only between manufacturers, but also within a
box from the same manufacturer. Successful printing on
envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes. When
selecting envelopes, consider the following components:
• Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed
90 g/m2 (24 lb) or jamming may occur.
• Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with
less than 6 mm (0.25 in.) 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.
• Size: You should only use envelopes within the following size
ranges.
Minimum
Maximum
Multi-Purpose
Tray
90 X 148 mm
(3.5 X 5.83 in.)
216 X 356 mm
(8.5 X 14 in.)
NOTES:
• You may experience some paper jams when using any media
with a length less than 127 mm (5.0 in.). This may be caused by
paper that has been affected by environmental conditions. For
optimum performance, make sure you are storing and handling
the paper correctly. Please refer to “Printer and Paper Storage
Environment” on page G.7.

Envelopes with Double Side Seams
Double side-seams construction has vertical seams at both ends
of the envelope rather than diagonal seams. This style may be
more likely to wrinkle. Be sure the seam extends all the way to
the corner of the envelope as illustrated below.
Correct
Incorrect
Envelopes with Adhesive Strips or Flaps
Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one
flap that folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with
the heat and pressure in the printer. The extra flaps and strips
might cause wrinkling, creasing, or even jams and may even
damage the fuser.
Envelope Margins
The following gives typical address margins for a commercial
#10 or DL envelope.
Type of Address
Return address
Delivery address
Minimum
15 mm (0.6 in.)
51 mm (2 in.)
Maximum
51 mm (2 in.)
89 mm (3.5 in.)
NOTES:
• For best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm
(0.6 in.) from the edges of the envelope.
• Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.
Proper storage of envelopes helps contribute to print quality.
Envelopes should be stored flat. If air is trapped in an envelope,
creating an air bubble, then the envelope may wrinkle during
printing. See “Printing on Envelopes” on page 4.14.

Labels
CAUTIONS:
• To avoid damaging the printer, use only labels recommended for
laser printers.
• To prevent serious jams, always use the Multi-Purpose Tray to
print labels and always use the rear output tray.
• Never print on the same sheet of labels more than once and
never print on a partial sheet of labels.
When selecting labels, consider the quality of each component:
• 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 with spaces
between the labels, causing serious jams.
• Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than
13 mm (.5 in.) of curl in any direction.
• Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other
indications of separation.
See “Printing on Labels” on page 4.17.
Transparencies
Transparencies used in the printer must be able to withstand
200 °C (392 °F), the printer’s fusing temperature.
CAUTION: To avoid damaging the printer, use only transparencies
recommended for use in laser printers.
See “Printing on Transparencies” on page 4.19.
