Margins
 
 and print area 
 
 
The image area of a print is a bit smaller than the media size.  You may need to adjust the page margins in your application software to match the print area.   
   NOTE
 
 
To assure the correct page margins, use the drivers supplied on the printer's CD-ROM.

Media 
 
hints
 
   CAUTION
 
 
Do not use any media designed for inkjet printers, especially inkjet coated paper and inkjet transparencies.  Inkjet media is coated with a substance that will damage the fuser; Xerox does not furnish service for damage or malfunction caused by the use of non-Xerox supplies or consumables.  Always use Xerox media that has been specially designed for use with Xerox Laser Printers. 
  
 
- 
 
For the best print quality, load only paper in the paper tray and Xerox transparencies in the transparency tray.
 
- 
 
When printing a large number of sheets of paper or transparencies, use the media-specific trays for best reliability.
 
- 
 
If you have the Automatic Duplex/Lower Tray Assembly:
 
- 
 
Insert the Duplex Unit 
only
 in the upper (
a
) slot.
 
- 
 
Insert the transparency tray 
only
 into the middle (
b
) tray slot.
 
- 
 
Insert the Paper tray into the middle (
b
) or lower (
c
) slot.
 
 
- 
 
Always use the Multi-Purpose Tray (
d
) for specialty media.
 
- 
 
When using the Multi-Purpose Tray, always select the appropriate media type in the front panel after loading the media.
 
- 
 
When you select a media tray by location (
Upper, 
Middle, 
Lower, 
Multi-Purpose Tray
), the printer picks from that tray, 
regardless of the tray's media type or size. 
 
- 
 
Always keep media in a sealed package to avoid the effects of moisture and dryness, which can affect print quality.
 
 
   NOTE
 
 
For details on automatic duplex printing, refer to 
 Automatic duplex.
