Guidelines for Printing on Glossy Paper
• Do not open sealed packages of glossy paper until you are ready to load them into the printer.
• Leave glossy paper in the original wrapper, and leave the packages in the shipping carton until ready to use.
• Remove all other paper from the tray before loading glossy paper.
• Load only the amount of glossy paper that you are planning to use. Do not leave glossy paper in the tray when
you are finished printing. Reinsert unused paper in the original wrapper and seal.
• Rotate paper frequently. Long periods of storage in extreme conditions can cause glossy paper to curl and jam
in the printer.
• In the print driver software, select the desired glossy paper type or select the tray loaded with the desired paper.

• Do not load more than 20 transparencies. Overloading the tray can cause the printer to jam.
• For clear or non-strip transparencies:
– Load transparencies face up into Trays 1–4.

• For striped transparencies:
– Load transparencies into Trays 1–4 with the strip face down on the right trailing edge.
