A screen prompting you to load paper also appears if the selected paper drawer is not fully inserted into the machine. Make sure that the paper drawer is properly in place.
You cannot load the following types of paper into the Paper Drawers 1 and 2, heave paper (more than 220 g/m2), coated paper, transparencies, labels, tracing paper, and tab paper.

You can load nonstandard paper into Paper Drawers 3 and 4 if both of the sides are between 182 mm and 487.7 mm in length, and between 139.7 mm and 297 mm in width. You cannot load nonstandard paper into Paper Drawers 3 and 4 if either one of the sides is shorter than 182 mm and longer than 487.7 mm in length, or longer than 297 mm in width.
Never place paper or any other items in the empty part of the drawer next to the paper stack. Doing so may cause paper jams.

You can load the transparencies only to the Multi-purpose Tray.
Unlike normal paper, transparencies have a specific printable surface to ensure the optimal reproduction of images.
When the transparency is loaded in the Multi-purpose Tray, the side facing up is the one printed on.
Only A4 transparencies can be used.
When loading transparencies, be careful not to touch the printable surface. Hold transparencies by their edges.
Do not load transparencies into a paper source while a print job is in progress. This may cause paper jams.
Only use transparencies that are specially recommended for use in this machine. Other transparencies may damage the machine.
To prevent paper jams or the folding of transparencies, it is recommended that you remove them from the output tray as soon as possible.
Replace unused transparencies into the box in which they came. Leaving them in the Multi-purpose Tray for an extended period of time may cause the transparencies to adhere to one another and result in paper jams. Avoid storing transparencies in a location subject to high-temperatures or humidity.
If transparencies do become adhered to one another and a paper jam occurs, remove the transparencies, fan them well, make sure that fewer than 100 sheets of transparencies are loaded, or use new transparencies.
When printing on transparencies, image density may be high, depending on the image type. In this case, adjust the output image density.
|
NOTE
|
|
If a paper jam occurs, remove the transparencies and fan them well before reloading them into the Multi-purpose Tray.

When there is only a small amount of toner remaining inside the machine, the following message appears on the touch panel display. You can continue printing, but at this time you should purchase a new toner cartridge to have it available when needed.
When toner runs out completely and prints can no longer be made, a screen with instructions on how to replace the toner cartridge, like the one shown below, appears on the touch panel display. Follow the instructions on the touch panel display, and the procedure described below to help you replace the toner cartridge.
If you press [Close], you can continue operations, such as setting modes and scanning originals, even if you do not replace the toner cartridge immediately.
 WARNING |
|
Do not burn or throw used toner cartridges into open flames, as this may cause the toner remaining inside the cartridges to ignite, resulting in burns or a fire.
|
 CAUTION |
|
Keep toner out of the reach of small children. If toner is ingested, consult a physician immediately.
Take care not to allow toner to come into contact with your hands or clothing. If toner gets onto your hands or clothing, wash it off immediately with cold water. Washing it off with warm water will set the toner, and make it impossible to remove the toner stains.
|
|
IMPORTANT
|
|
Use only toner cartridges intended for use with this machine.
Do not replace toner cartridges until the message prompting you to do so appears.
You can replace a toner cartridge while the machine is printing.
|
|
NOTE
|
|
When the message appears, the remaining toner is low. It is recommended that you get a new toner cartridge ready for replacement before the toner runs out.
If toner runs out during a print job, the remaining prints are made after you replace the toner cartridge.
After replacing toner cartridges, if the colour of the copies or prints is different in gradation or density from the colour of the copies or prints before you replaced the toner cartridges, perform an Auto Adjust Gradation in Adjustment/Maintenance (from the Settings/Registration screen). (See "Automatic Gradation Adjustment.")
