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. For best results, print a small quantity to make sure the opacity is acceptable. Duplex (Double sided) printing can be done automatically with the duplex option installed and selected. Note Only plain paper, 60­90 g/m2 (16­24 lb bond) can be autoduplexed. See "Media Specifications" on page 52. Duplexing envelopes, labels, transparencies, or glossy is not supported. How do I autoduplex? You should verify that the duplex option is physically installed on the printer to successfully duplex the job. Check your application to determine how to set your margins for duplex printing. The following Binding Position settings are available.

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/m2 (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. Remove transparencies as soon as possible from the output tray to avoid static buildup. 74 Output Tray 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. # If media has been removed from its wrapper, place it in its original packaging and store in a cool, dark place on a level surface. # Avoid moisture, excessive humidity, direct sunlight, excessive heat (above 35°C [95°F]), and dust. # Avoid media leaning against other objects or placing it in an upright position. Before using stored media, do a trial print and check print quality.
