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 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. Toner does not adhere well to moist or wet paper.

Envelopes Envelopes can only be printed on their front sides (side where the recipient’s address is written). In addition, printing on the front side in the area overlap- ping the back flap cannot be guaranteed. The location of this area differs depending on the envelope type.
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.

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
The following Order settings are available when “Booklet” is selected. Load plain paper into the tray. From the printer driver, specify duplex (double-sided) printing (Layout tab in Windows). Click OK. With autoduplexing, the back side is printed first, and then the front side is printed.
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.
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. If media has been removed from its wrapper, place it in its original pack- aging and store in a cool, dark place on a level surface.
About Toner Cartridges Your printer uses four toner cartridges: black, yellow, magenta, and cyan. Handle the toner cartridges carefully to avoid spilling toner inside the printer or on yourself. When replacing the toner cartridges, install only new cartridges. If a used toner cartridge is installed, the amount of remaining toner may not appear correctly.

US: printer.konicaminolta.net/products/recycle/index.asp Europe: www.konicaminolta.eu/printing-solutions/more-information/ clean-planet.html Other regions: printer.konicaminolta.com Note The use of non-genuine toner cartridges may result in unstable performance. In addition, any damage caused by the use of non-genuine toner cartridges is not covered by the warranty, even if it occurs during the warranty period.
Page 157
When replacing a toner cartridge, refer to the following table. For optimum print quality and performance, use only approved KONICA MINOLTA toner cartridges for your specific printer type, as listed in the table below.

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 printer’s media path will help you locate media misfeeds 1 Toner cartridge 2 Output tray 3 Fuser unit FU-P02 4 Duplex (magicolor 4750DN only) 9 Imaging unit 5 Tray 1 (Manual feed tray) 6 Tray 3 (optional lower feeder unit PF-P07)
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.
