Page orientation is important when printing on letterhead. Use the following table for help when loading
letterhead in the print media sources.
Transparencies
You can feed transparencies from the standard 250-sheet tray or the multipurpose feeder. Try a sample
of any transparencies you are considering using with the printer before buying large quantities.
Do not load transparencies in the optional 250-sheet or 500-sheet drawer. To load transparencies in
the multipurpose feeder, see page 54 of Using and loading the multipurpose feeder.
When printing on transparencies:
• Be sure to set the Paper Type to Transparency from the printer driver, in the Local Printer
Setup Utility, or from MarkVision™ to avoid damaging your printer.
• Use transparencies designed specifically for laser printers. Transparencies must be able to
withstand temperatures of 175°C (347°F) without melting, discoloring, or releasing hazardous
emissions.
• To prevent print quality problems, avoid getting fingerprints on the transparencies.
• Before loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together.
