Overview
To ensure the best print quality and the most reliable printer operation,
follow these simple guidelines:
■
Always use high-quality paper and
only
Tektronix-brand
Transparencies, Glossy Coated paper, and Fabric Transfer media.
■
To maintain print quality, use the troubleshooting information in this
book and the
Quick Reference Guide
, as well as the Consumables Page
and Service Print 1 in the front panel’s
Help Pages
menu.
■
Double-sided printing and specialty media will require more
frequent cleaning of the rollers and will reduce the average life of the
consumables.
Caution
Keep the Imaging Unit’s light exposure to a minimum — less than
90 seconds of artificial light and
no exposure to sunlight
— or you
may damage the unit:
■
When installing a new Imaging Unit, keep the protective plastic
sheet on until immediately before inserting the unit.
■
If, when installing the Imaging Unit, you also need to install other
components, install the Imaging Unit last to minimize its light
exposure.
■
When changing a toner cartridge or clearing a media jam, make
sure that you close the printer’s right side door quickly to avoid
any light exposure to the Imaging Unit.
■
Do not leave the printer’s front door open for extended periods of
time (for example, several hours).
■
Do not touch the underside or the right side of the Imaging Unit;
fingerprints may appear on your output.
■
Use only laser paper for double-sided printing; other media may
damage printer components.
