Linking and unlinking trays
Linking trays
Tray linking is useful for large print jobs or multiple copies. When one linked tray is empty, paper feeds from
the next linked tray. When the Paper Size and Paper Type settings are the same for any trays, the trays are
automatically linked.
The printer automatically senses the Paper Size setting according to the position of the paper guides in each
tray except the multipurpose feeder. The printer can sense A4, A5, JIS B5, Letter, Legal, Executive, and Universal
paper sizes. The multipurpose feeder and trays using other paper sizes can be linked manually using the Paper
Size menu available from the Paper Size/Type menu.
Note: To link the multipurpose feeder, Configure MP must be set to Cassette in the Paper menu in order for
MP Feeder Size to appear as a menu item.
The Paper Type setting must be set for all trays from the Paper Type menu available from the Paper Size/Type
menu.
Unlinking trays
Unlinked trays have settings that are not the same as the settings of any other tray.
Additional printer setup 39
To unlink a tray, change the following tray settings so that they do not match the settings of any other tray:
• Paper Type (for example: Plain Paper, Letterhead, Custom Type <x>)
Paper Type names describe the paper characteristics. If the name that best describes your paper is used
by linked trays, assign a
dierent
Paper Type name to the tray, such as Custom Type <x>, or
define
your
own custom name.
• Paper Size (for example: letter, A4, statement)
Load a dierent paper size to change the Paper Size setting for a tray automatically. Paper Size settings for
the multipurpose feeder are not automatic; they must be set manually from the Paper Size menu.
Warning—Potential Damage: Do not assign a Paper Type name that does not accurately describe the type
of paper loaded in the tray. The temperature of the fuser varies according to the specified Paper Type. Paper
may not be properly processed if an inaccurate Paper Type is selected.
Linking exit bins
The standard exit bin holds up to 550 sheets of 20‑lb paper. If you need additional output capacity, you can
purchase other optional exit bins.
Note: Not all exit bins support every paper size and type.
Linking exit bins lets you create a single output source so the printer can automatically switch output to the
next available exit bin.

Changing port settings after installing a new network
Internal Solutions Port
When a new network Lexmark Internal Solutions Port (ISP) is installed in the printer, the printer
configurations
on computers that access the printer must be updated because the printer will be assigned a new IP address.
All computers that access the printer must be updated with this new IP address in order to print to it over the
network.
Notes:
• If the printer has a static IP address that will stay the same, then you do not need to make any changes
to the computer
configurations.
• If the computers are
configured
to print to the printer by a network name that will stay the same, instead
of by IP address, then you do not need to make any changes to the computer configurations.
• If you are adding a wireless ISP to a printer previously configured for a wired connection, then make sure
the wired network is disconnected when you configure the printer to operate wirelessly. If the wired
connection remains connected, then the wireless configuration will complete, but the wireless ISP will
not be active. In the event that the printer was
configured
for a wireless ISP while still attached to a wired
connection, disconnect the wired connection, turn the printer o, and then turn the printer back on
again. This will enable the wireless ISP.
• Only one network connection at a time is active. If you want to switch the connection type between
wired and wireless, you must first turn the printer o, connect the cable (to switch to a wired connection)
or disconnect the cable (to switch to a wireless connection), and then turn the printer back on again.

Paper and specialty media guidelines
Paper guidelines
Paper characteristics
The following paper characteristics aect print quality and reliability. Consider these characteristics when
evaluating new paper stock.
Note: For detailed information on card stock and labels, see the Card Stock & Label Guide available on the
Lexmark Web site at
www.lexmark.com/publications.
Weight
The printer can automatically feed paper weights from 60–176 g/m
2
(16–47 lb bond) grain long. Paper lighter
than 60 g/m
2
(16 lb) might not be
sti
enough to feed properly, causing jams. For best performance, use
75 g/m
2
(20 lb bond) grain long paper. For paper smaller than 182 x 257 mm (7.2 x 10.1 in.), we recommend
90 g/m
2
(24 lb) or heavier paper.
Curl
Curl is the tendency for paper to curl at its edges. Excessive curl can cause paper feeding problems. Curl can
occur after the paper passes through the printer, where it is exposed to high temperatures. Storing paper
unwrapped in hot, humid, cold, or dry conditions, even in the trays, can contribute to paper curling prior to
printing and can cause feeding problems.
Smoothness
Paper smoothness directly aects print quality. If paper is too rough, then toner cannot fuse to it properly. If
paper is too smooth, then it can cause paper feeding or print quality issues. Always use paper between 100
and 300 Sheeld points; smoothness between 150 and 250 Sheeld points produces the best print quality.
Moisture content
The amount of moisture in paper
aects
both print quality and the ability of the printer to feed the paper correctly.
Leave paper in its original wrapper until it is time to use it. This limits the exposure of paper to moisture changes
that can degrade its performance.
Condition paper before printing by storing it in its original wrapper in the same environment as the printer for
24 to 48 hours before printing. Extend the time several days if the storage or transportation environment is very
dierent
from the printer environment. Thick paper may also require a longer conditioning period.
Grain direction
Grain refers to the alignment of the paper fibers in a sheet of paper. Grain is either grain long, running the length
of the paper, or grain short, running the width of the paper.
For 60–176 g/m
2
(16–47 lb bond) paper, grain long paper is recommended. For paper heavier than 176 g/m
2
,
grain short is recommended.
Paper and specialty media guidelines 66
Fiber content
Most high‑quality xerographic paper is made from 100% chemically treated pulped wood. This content provides
the paper with a high degree of stability resulting in fewer paper feeding problems and better print quality.
Paper containing fibers such as cotton can negatively aect paper handling.
For detailed information on paper with recycled fiber content, see
“Using recycled paper” on page 67.
Selecting paper
Using appropriate paper prevents jams and helps ensure trouble‑free printing.
To help avoid jams and poor print quality:
• Always use new, undamaged paper.
• Before loading paper, know the recommended print side of the paper. This information is usually indicated
on the paper package.
• Do not use paper that has been cut or trimmed by hand.
• Do not mix paper sizes, types, or weights in the same source; mixing results in jams.
• Do not use coated papers unless they are
specifically
designed for electrophotographic printing.
Selecting preprinted forms and letterhead
Use these guidelines when selecting preprinted forms and letterhead:
• Use grain long for 60–90 g/m
2
(16–24 lb) paper.
• Use only forms and letterhead printed using an oset lithographic or engraved printing process.
• Avoid papers with rough or heavily textured surfaces.
Use papers printed with heat‑resistant inks designed for use in xerographic copiers. The ink must be able to
withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without melting or releasing hazardous emissions. Use inks that
are not aected by the resin in toner. Inks that are oxidation‑set or oil‑based generally meet these requirements;
latex inks might not. When in doubt, contact the paper supplier.
Preprinted papers such as letterhead must be able to withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without
melting or releasing hazardous emissions.
Using recycled paper
As an environmentally conscientious company, Lexmark supports the use of recycled paper produced
specifically for use in laser (electro-photographic) printers.
While no blanket statement can be made that all recycled paper will feed well, Lexmark consistently tests papers
that represent recycled cut size copier papers available on the global market. This
scientific
testing is conducted
with rigor and discipline. Many factors are taken into consideration both separately and as a whole, including
the following:
• Amount of post-consumer waste (Lexmark tests up to 100% post-consumer waste content.)
• Temperature and humidity conditions (Testing chambers simulate climates from all over the world.)
• Moisture content (Business papers should have low moisture: 4–5%.)
• Bending resistance and proper stiness means optimum feeding through the printer.
• Thickness (impacts how much can be loaded into a tray)
Paper and specialty media guidelines 67
• Surface roughness (measured in Sheeld units, impacts print clarity and how well toner fuses to the paper)
• Surface friction (determines how easily sheets can be separated)
• Grain and formation (impacts curling, which also influences the mechanics of how the paper behaves as it
moves through the printer)
• Brightness and texture (look and feel)
Recycled papers are better than ever; however, the amount of recycled content in a paper aects the degree
of control over foreign matter. And while recycled papers are one good path to printing in an environmentally
responsible manner, they are not perfect. The energy required to de-ink and deal with additives such as
colorants and “glue” often generates more carbon emissions than does normal paper production. However,
using recycled papers enables better resource management overall.
Lexmark concerns itself with the responsible use of paper in general based on life cycle assessments of its
products. To gain a better understanding of the impact of printers on the environment, the company
commissioned a number of life cycle assessments and found that paper was identified as the primary contributor
(up to 80%) of carbon emissions caused throughout the entire life of a device (from design to end-of-life). This
is due to the energy-intensive manufacturing processes required to make paper.
Thus, Lexmark seeks to educate customers and partners on minimizing the impact of paper. Using recycled
paper is one way. Eliminating excessive and unnecessary paper consumption is another. Lexmark is well-
equipped to help customers minimize printing and copying waste. In addition, the company encourages
purchasing paper from suppliers who demonstrate their commitment to sustainable forestry practices.
Lexmark does not endorse specific suppliers, although a converter’s product list for special applications is
maintained. However, the following paper choice guidelines will help alleviate the environmental impact of
printing:
1 Minimize paper consumption.
2 Be selective about the origin of wood
fiber.
Buy from suppliers who carry
certifications
such as the Forestry
Stewardship Council (FSC) or The Program for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC). These
certifications guarantee that the paper manufacturer uses wood pulp from forestry operators that employ
environmentally and socially responsible forest management and restoration practices.
3 Choose the most appropriate paper for printing needs: normal 75 or 80 g/m
2
certified paper, lower weight
paper, or recycled paper.
Unacceptable paper
Test results indicate that the following paper types are at risk for use with laser printers:
• Chemically treated papers used to make copies without carbon paper, also known as carbonless papers
• Preprinted papers with chemicals that may contaminate the paper
• Preprinted papers that can be aected by the temperature in the printer fuser
• Preprinted papers that require a registration (the precise location on the page) greater than ± 2.3 mm (±
0.9 in.), such as optical character recognition (OCR) forms. In some cases, registration can be adjusted with
a software application to successfully print on these forms.)
• Coated papers (erasable bond), synthetic papers, thermal papers
• Rough-edged, rough or heavily textured surface papers or curled papers
• Recycled papers that fail EN12281:2002 (European testing)
• Paper weighing less than 60 g/m
2
(16 lb)
• Multiple part forms or documents

be found at the Environmental Sustainability link.
Storing paper
Use these paper storage guidelines to help avoid jams and uneven print quality:
• For best results, store paper where the temperature is 21°C (70°F) and the relative humidity is 40%. Most
label manufacturers recommend printing in a temperature range of 18 to 24°C (65 to 75°F) with relative
humidity between 40 and 60%.
• Store paper in cartons when possible, on a pallet or shelf, rather than on the floor.
• Store individual packages on a
flat
surface.
• Do not store anything on top of individual paper packages.

Printing on specialty media
Tips on using letterhead
• Use letterhead designed specifically for laser printers.
• Print samples on the letterhead being considered for use before buying large quantities.
• Before loading letterhead, fan the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together.
• Page orientation is important when printing on letterhead. For information on how to load letterhead, see:
– “Loading paper in the 250- and 550-sheet trays” on page 33
– “Loading paper in the 2000‑sheet tray” on page 34
– “Loading paper in the multipurpose feeder” on page 35
Tips on using transparencies
Print samples on the transparencies being considered for use before buying large quantities.
When printing on transparencies:
• Feed transparencies from a 250‑sheet tray, a 550‑sheet tray, or the multipurpose feeder.
• Use transparencies designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure
transparencies are able to withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without melting, discoloring,
osetting, or releasing hazardous emissions.
• Use transparencies that are 138–146 g/m
2
(37–39 lb. bond) in weight.
• To prevent print quality problems, avoid getting
fingerprints
on the transparencies.
• Before loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together.
• We recommend Lexmark part number 12A5010 for A4‑size transparencies and Lexmark part number
70X7240 for letter‑size transparencies.
Tips on using envelopes
Print samples on the envelopes being considered for use before buying large quantities.
When printing on envelopes:
• Feed envelopes from the multipurpose feeder or the optional envelope feeder.
• Set the Paper Type to Envelope, and select the envelope size.
• Use envelopes designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure
the envelopes can withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without sealing, wrinkling, curling
excessively, or releasing hazardous emissions.
• For the best performance, use envelopes made from 90 g/m
2
(24 lb bond) paper. Use up to 105 g/m
2
(28 lb bond) weight for envelopes as long as the cotton content is 25% or less. All‑cotton envelopes must
not exceed 90 g/m
2
(24 lb bond) weight.
• Use only new envelopes.
• To optimize performance and minimize jams, do not use envelopes that:
– Have excessive curl or twist
– Are stuck together or damaged in any way
– Have windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossing
Printing 75
– Have metal clasps, string ties, or folding bars
– Have an interlocking design
– Have postage stamps attached
– Have any exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed or closed position
– Have bent corners
– Have rough, cockle, or laid
finishes
• Adjust the width guide to
fit
the width of the envelopes.
Note: A combination of high humidity (over 60%) and the high printing temperature may wrinkle or seal
envelopes.
Tips on using labels
Print samples on the labels being considered for use before buying large quantities.
Notes:
• Paper, dual‑web paper, polyester, and vinyl labels are supported.
• When using the duplex unit, specially‑designed, integrated, and dual‑web paper labels are supported.
• Printing labels requires a special label fuser cleaner which is included with the special cartridge required
for label applications. For more information, see
“Ordering supplies” on page 163.
For detailed information on label printing, characteristics, and design, see the Card Stock & Label Guide
available on the Lexmark Web site at
www.lexmark.com/publications.
When printing on labels:
• Feed labels from a 250‑sheet tray, a 550‑sheet tray, or the multipurpose feeder.
• Use labels designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to verify that:
– The labels can withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without sealing, excessive curling, wrinkling,
or releasing hazardous emissions.
– Label adhesives, face sheet (printable stock), and topcoats can withstand up to 25 psi (172 kPa) pressure
without delaminating, oozing around the edges, or releasing hazardous fumes.
• Do not use labels with slick backing material.
• Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel o during printing, resulting in a jam. Partial
sheets also contaminate the printer and the cartridge with adhesive, and could void the printer and cartridge
warranties.
• Do not use labels with exposed adhesive.
• Do not print within 1 mm (0.04 in.) of the edge of the label, of the perforations, or between die‑cuts of the
label.
• Be sure adhesive backing does not reach to the sheet edge. Zone coating of the adhesive at least 1 mm
(0.04 in.) away from edges is recommended. Adhesive material contaminates the printer and could void the
warranty.
• If zone coating of the adhesive is not possible, remove a 1.6‑mm (0.06‑in.) strip on the leading and driver
edge, and use a non‑oozing adhesive.
• Portrait orientation works best, especially when printing bar codes.
Printing 76
Tips on using card stock
Card stock is heavy, single‑ply specialty media. Many of its variable characteristics, such as moisture content,
thickness, and texture, can significantly impact print quality. Print samples on the card stock being considered
for use before buying large quantities.
When printing on card stock:
• Feed card stock from a 250‑sheet tray, a 550‑sheet tray, or the multipurpose feeder.
• Make sure the Paper Type is Card Stock.
• Select the appropriate Paper Texture setting.
• Be aware that preprinting, perforation, and creasing may significantly aect the print quality and cause jams
or other paper handling problems.
• Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure the card stock can withstand temperatures up to 230°C
(446°F) without releasing hazardous emissions.
• Do not use preprinted card stock manufactured with chemicals that may contaminate the printer. Preprinting
introduces semi‑liquid and volatile components into the printer.
• Use grain short card stock when possible.
Printing confidential and other held jobs
Holding jobs in the printer
When sending a job to the printer, you can specify that you want the printer to hold the job in memory until you
start the job from the printer control panel. All print jobs that can be initiated by the user at the printer are called
held jobs.
Note:
Confidential,
Verify, Reserve, and Repeat print jobs may be deleted if the printer requires extra memory
to process additional held jobs.
Job type Description
Confidential When you send a Confidential print job to the printer, you must create a PIN
from the computer. The PIN must be four digits using the numbers 0–9. The
job is held in printer memory until you enter the PIN from the printer control
panel and choose to print or delete the job.
Verify When you send a Verify print job, the printer prints one copy and holds the
remaining copies in printer memory. Verify lets you examine the first copy to
see if it is satisfactory before printing the remaining copies. Once all copies
are printed, the job is automatically deleted from printer memory.
Reserve When you send a Reserve print job, the printer does not print the job
immediately. It stores the job in memory so you can print the job later. The
job is held in memory until you delete it from the Held Jobs menu.
Repeat When you send a Repeat print job, the printer prints all requested copies of
the job and stores the job in memory so you can print additional copies later.
You can print additional copies as long as the job remains stored in memory.

Power consumption
Product power consumption
The following table documents the power consumption characteristics of the product.
Note: Some modes may not apply to your product.
Mode Description Power consumption (Watts)
Printing The product is generating hard‑copy output from electronic inputs. 600 W duplex; 780 W simplex
Copying The product is generating hard‑copy output from hard‑copy original
documents.
N/A
Scanning The product is scanning hard‑copy documents. N/A
Ready The product is waiting for a print job. 100 W
Power Saver The product is in energy‑saving mode. 19 W
O The product is plugged into a wall outlet, but the power switch is
turned o.
0 W
The power consumption levels listed in the previous table represent time-averaged measurements.
Instantaneous power draws may be substantially higher than the average.
Values are subject to change. See
www.lexmark.com for current values.
Power Saver
This product is designed with an energy-saving mode called Power Saver. The Power Saver Mode is equivalent
to the Sleep Mode. The Power Saver Mode saves energy by lowering power consumption during extended
Notices 193
periods of inactivity. The Power Saver Mode is automatically engaged after this product is not used for a
specified period of time, called the Power Saver Timeout.
Factory default Power Saver Timeout for this product (in minutes): 30
By using the configuration menus, the Power Saver Timeout can be modified between 1 minute and 240
minutes. Setting the Power Saver Timeout to a low value reduces energy consumption, but may increase the
response time of the product. Setting the Power Saver Timeout to a high value maintains a fast response, but
uses more energy.
O mode
If this product has an o mode which still consumes a small amount of power, then to completely stop product
power consumption, disconnect the power supply cord from the wall outlet.
Total energy usage
It is sometimes helpful to calculate the total product energy usage. Since power consumption claims are
provided in power units of Watts, the power consumption should be multiplied by the time the product spends
in each mode in order to calculate energy usage. The total product energy usage is the sum of each mode's
energy usage.
