Media Types Keep media on a flat, level surface in its original wrapper until it is time to load it. For a list of approved media, refer to printer.konicaminolta.com. Before printing a large number of copies on special paper (other than plain paper), perform a trial print to check the quality of the print result.
– Paper that has been printed on with a monochrome/color laser printer/ copier – Paper that has been printed on with a heat-transfer printer – Paper that has been printed on with any other printer or fax machine Dusty Wet (or damp) Keep media between 35% and 85% relative humidity.

Loading Media How do I load media? Note Do not mix media of different types and sizes, as this will cause media misfeeds or machine trouble Note Paper edges are sharp and may cause injuries. When refilling media, first remove any media remaining in the tray. Stack it with the new media, even the edges, then reload it.

Duplexing Select paper with high opacity for duplex (double-sided) printing. Opacity refers to how effectively paper blocks out what is written on the opposite side of the page. If the paper has low opacity (high translucency), then the printed data from one side of the page will show through to the other side. Check your application for margin information.
Page 150
In addition, if “N-up” has been set to “Booklet”, autoduplex printing is per- formed. The following Order settings are available when “Booklet” is selected. If “Left Binding” is selected, the pages can be folded as a left-bound booklet. If “Right Binding” is selected, the pages can be folded as a right-bound booklet.
Output Tray All printed media is output to the face-down output tray on top of the printer. This tray has a capacity of approximately 200 sheets (A4/Letter) of 80 g/m (22 lb) paper. If the media is stacked too high in the output tray, your printer may experience media misfeeds, excessive media curl, or static buildup.
Media Storage How do I store media? Keep media on a flat, level surface in its original wrapper until it is time to load it. Media that has been stored for a long time out of its packaging may dry up too much and cause misfeeding.
Replacing Consumables Note Failure to follow instructions as outlined in this manual could result in voiding your warranty. Note If an error message ( , etc.) TONER OUT TRANS.BELT END OF LIFE appears, print out the configuration page, and then check the status of the other consumables.

Printing the Configuration Page page 9-2 Preventing Media Misfeeds page 9-3 Understanding the Media Path page 9-4 Clearing Media Misfeeds page 9-5...
Preventing Media Misfeeds Make sure that... Media matches the printer specifications. Media is flat, especially on the leading edge. The printer is on a hard, flat, level surface. You store media in a dry location away from moisture and humidity. You always adjust the media guides in the tray after inserting the media (a guide that is not properly adjusted can cause poor print quality, media mis- feeds, and printer damage).
Understanding the Media Path Understanding the printer’s media path will help you locate media misfeeds 1 Toner cartridge 6 Tray 3 (optional lower feeder unit PF-P07) 2 Output tray 7 Tray 2 3 Fuser unit FU-P02 8 Print head unit 4 Duplex (magicolor 4750DN only) 9 Imaging unit 5 Tray 1 (Manual feed tray) 10 Transfer belt unit TF-P05...
Clearing Media Misfeeds To avoid damage, always remove misfed media gently, without tearing it. Any piece of media left in the printer, whether large or small, can obstruct the media path and cause further misfeeds. Do not reload media that has misfed. Note The image is not fixed on the media before the fusing process.
