Overview

Caring for Your Printer

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.
