Tips on using transparencies

Print samples on the transparencies being considered for use before buying large quantities.
When printing on transparencies:
•
Feed transparencies from the 250-sheet tray, manual feeder, or optional multipurpose feeder.
•
Use transparencies designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure
transparencies are able to withstand temperatures up to 200°C (392°F) without melting, discoloring, offsetting,
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.
•
We recommend Lexmark part number 12A8240 for letter-size transparencies and Lexmark part number 12A8241
for A4-size transparencies.
