Introduction The 2000-sheet drawer gives your printer added capacity by allowing you to load up to four reams (approximately 2,000 sheets) of 20 lb paper. Your drawer is pre-configured to either letter or A4 paper size. To use a different paper size, see page 12. Your printer has an autoconnect feature that recognizes when the 2000-sheet drawer has been installed. After starting your printer, this option is shown as Tray 2

depending upon the number of installed paper sources. To ensure reliable paper feeding, it is important that you select paper recommended for use with the 2000-sheet drawer and that you load it properly. See page 15 for information on paper specifications and page 16 for loading instructions. To ensure compatibility with your printer, verify your drawer is labeled with a colored triangle located on the top left front corner. Refer to your printer documentation for information pertaining to electronic emissions, safety, and warranty.2000-Sheet Drawer User’s Guide

Note: The 16 AWG power cord is included only with units intended to operate at 100 - 127V power.

Remove all packing material and tape from each item. Note: Save the carton and packing material in case you need to repack the 2000-sheet drawer for service or storage.

Peel the appropriately numbered decals from the sheet and attach them to the recessed areas on the drawer. Choose the number that corresponds to the number of paper options you are attaching, including the standard output tray.

Attaching Stabilizer Feet CAUTION: If you are not using an optional printer stand, the four stabilizer feet must be attached to the drawer.

Carefully invert the 2000-sheet drawer so the bottom faces up.

Remove the screws securing the rubber feet to the drawer. Save the screws and rubber feet for use in step 5 on page

Note: If you later choose to use the drawer with the printer stand, you must remove the stabilizer feet and re- attach the rubber feet.2000-Sheet Drawer User’s Guide

Insert the tab on the end of the stabilizer foot into the slot on the bottom of the drawer. Rotate the stabilizer foot down until it is aligned with the bottom of the drawer.

Slide the foot away from the center of the tray until it locks into place.2000-Sheet Drawer User’s Guide

Using one of the rubber feet removed in step 2 on page 3, align the openings of the rubber and stabilizer feet and attach the screw as shown.

Repeat step 3 on page 4 through step 5 on page 5 for the remaining rubber and stabilizer feet.2000-Sheet Drawer User’s Guide

Installing the 2000-Sheet Drawer Decide on an installation location for the 2000-sheet drawer. The printer, and possibly other options, will be placed on top of the drawer, so allow a maximum of 137.16 cm (4 ½ ft) for clearance. Note: Your drawer is pre-configured to either letter or A4 paper size. To use a different paper size, see page 12 before placing any options or the printer on the 2000-sheet drawer.

Turn the printer power off and unplug the power cord.

Disconnect any other cables attached to the printer.

Place any options you may have on top of the drawer one at a time. Refer to your printer documentation for proper installation instructions.

Ask someone to help you lift the printer and position it above the drawer and any options you may have installed in step 3. CAUTION: Make sure your fingers are not under the printer when you set it down. Use the handholds on the printer or ask someone to help you lift it.2000-Sheet Drawer User’s Guide

Place the printer on top of the drawer and any options installed. The openings on top of the drawer will help you set the printer so the edges are aligned properly. Make sure the printer is securely in place. Handhold Square hole Tab Round hole2000-Sheet Drawer User’s Guide

Plug the jumper cord into the printer. Plug the other end of the jumper cord into the drawer.

If you intend to operate your 2000-sheet drawer at 100 - 127V power, you must use the 16 AWG power cord provided with the unit. Plug the 16 AWG power cord into the back of the drawer and then into a properly grounded electrical outlet. Do not use the power cord provided with the printer; however, you may retain it for possible future use. For example, if you later decide to detach the current printer from the 2000-sheet drawer, and use the printer with other paper options, you should use the original power cord provided with the printer. The 16 AWg power cord should always remain with the 2000-sheet drawer. If you intend to operate your 2000-sheet drawer at 200 - 240V power, use the power cord provided with the printer. Plug the power cord into the back of the drawer and then into a properly grounded electrical outlet .2000-Sheet Drawer User’s Guide

Changing the Paper Size Your 2000-sheet drawer comes pre-configured for either letter or A4 paper size. To change the paper size prior to installation, proceed to step 7 of the following instructions now. If you are changing the paper size for a unit that is already attached to a printer and a power source, proceed with step 1:

Open the loading door.

Push the elevator down button located on the left side of the door opening. See illustration on page 17.

Remove paper from the elevator tray and close the loading door.

Re-open the door. The printer elevator tray should be approximately halfway up.

Remove the printer and all attached options from the 2000-sheet drawer. CAUTION: Remove the attached options one at a time. Make sure your fingers are not under the printer when you set it down. Use the handholds on the printer or ask someone to help you lift it.

Locate the paper size selector knob on top of the drawer. See page 13 for an illustration and location of the knob. Note: Six paper selections are available. Each paper selection is color-coded. A new paper size is displayed on the operator panel after the paper elevator tray is in the up position.

To make a selection, turn the knob completely in a counterclockwise direction. This action sets the paper size to legal (LGL).2000-Sheet Drawer User’s Guide

Count the clicks as you turn the knob clockwise to find the correct paper size. For example, one click sets the paper size to executive (EXEC). Note: Make a note of the color associated with the paper size you select. Paper size selector knob2000-Sheet Drawer User’s Guide

Pull each locking pin up to unlock it, and then pull up on the guides to remove them.

Reposition the paper guides in the color-coded slots, located at the top of the unit, corresponding to the paper size you selected.

Insert the paper guides into the matching colored slots located on the inside bottom of the unit. The guides should now be seated flush against the top of the unit.

Selecting Paper The print quality and feeding reliability of your printer can vary with the type of paper you use. For more detailed information about paper specifications, refer to your printer documentation. To ensure the best print quality, use 75 g/m

(20 lb) grain long xerographic paper. Business papers are designed for general business use and provide acceptable print quality. Note: Always print samples on the print materials you are considering before buying large quantities. The following table shows the paper recommended for use with the 2000-sheet drawer. Paper Specifications

not use the following print materials in the drawer:

• Preprinted forms that require exact registration Material Type WeightPaper Xerographic or business paper60 to 135 g/m grain long(16 to 36 lb)2000-Sheet Drawer User’s Guide

Loading Paper Proper paper loading can prevent paper jams and help to ensure trouble-free printing. To avoid paper jams:

Do not load print material above the paper capacity mark. See page 18 to locate the paper capacity mark.

Do not fold or crease the paper.

Align paper to the back of the drawer.

Do not mix paper sizes or weights in the same paper source.

Do not open the loading door or remove any paper while a job is printing or Busy is displayed on the operator panel. Note: When loading more than one ream of paper, we recommend you remove the top and bottom sheet. Before loading paper in the tray, you should know the recommended print side of the paper you’re using. This information is usually indicated on the paper package. To load the paper follow these steps:

If you are loading paper for the first time, proceed to step 2 on page 17 now. If not, note the paper size previously loaded. If you are unsure of the paper size, go to the printer operator panel and follow these steps:

Make sure the printer power is on and the Ready status message appears on the display.

Select Tray x Size (where

represents the tray number of the 2000-sheet drawer)

If you want to load a paper size different from the one selected see page 12 for instructions, and then proceed with step 2 on page 17.2000-Sheet Drawer User’s Guide

Open the loading door. If the elevator tray is not already in the lowered position, push the elevator down button to lower.

Flex each stack of paper back and forth. Do not fold or crease the paper. Straighten the edges on a level surface.

Slightly bend the stack of paper as shown and place it on the elevator tray with the preferred print side facing down. Align the stack of paper to the back of the drawer. Elevator down button2000-Sheet Drawer User’s Guide

Carefully align each stack of paper as you load it to ensure a smooth edge where the stacks meet. Do not load print material above the paper capacity mark. This illustration shows the correct orientation for loading paper for simplex printing. Letterhead paper should be loaded with the printed side face down and the page top to the front of the drawer. Do not mix weights of paper. For duplex printing on letterhead paper, place the printed side face

with the page top to the rear of the drawer.

Close the loading door. Note: If you need to return your 2000-sheet drawer, please make sure that all paper has been removed from the unit before packing. Paper capacity mark2000-Sheet Drawer User’s Guide
