Tips on using transparencies
• Print samples on the transparencies being considered for use before buying large quantities.
• Feed transparencies from the standard tray or from the multipurpose feeder.
• From the Paper menu, set the Paper Type to Transparency.
• Use transparencies designed specifically for laser/LED printers. Transparencies must be able to withstand
temperatures of 230°C (446°F) without melting, discoloring, osetting, or releasing hazardous emissions.
• To prevent print quality problems, avoid getting
fingerprints
on the transparencies.
• Before loading transparencies,
flex
the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together.
• We recommend Lexmark transparencies. For ordering information, see the Lexmark Web site at
www.lexmark.com.
