6 From the control panel, set the Paper Size and Paper Type.

Linking and unlinking trays

Linking trays

Tray linking is useful for large print jobs or multiple copies. When one linked tray is empty, paper feeds from the next linked tray. When the Paper Size and Paper Type settings are the same for any trays, the trays are automatically linked. The Paper Size setting is automatically sensed according to the position of the paper guides in each tray except the multipurpose feeder. The Paper Size setting for the multipurpose feeder must be set manually from the Paper Size menu. The Paper Type setting must be set for all trays from the Paper Type menu. The Paper Type menu and the Paper Size menu are both available from the Paper Size/Type menu.

Unlinking trays

Unlinked trays have settings that are not the same as the settings of any other tray.

To unlink a tray, change the following tray settings so that they do not match the settings of any other tray:

- Paper Type (for example: Plain Paper, Letterhead, Custom Type )

Paper Type names describe the paper characteristics. If the name that best describes your paper is used by linked trays, assign a different Paper Type name to the tray, such as Custom Type , or define your own custom name.

•Paper Size (for example: letter, A4, statement)

Load a different paper size to change the Paper Size setting for a tray automatically. Paper Size settings for the multipurpose feeder are not automatic; they must be set manually from the Paper Size menu.

Warning—Potential Damage: Do not assign a Paper Type name that does not accurately describe the type of paper loaded in the tray. The temperature of the fuser varies according to the specified Paper Type. Paper may not be properly processed if an inaccurate Paper Type is selected.

Assigning a Custom Type name

Assign a Custom Type name to a tray to link or unlink it. Associate the same Custom Type name to each tray that you want to link. Only trays with the same custom names assigned will link.

Paper and specialty media guide

Paper guidelines

Paper characteristics

The following paper characteristics affect print quality and reliability. Consider these characteristics when evaluating new paper stock.

Weight

The printer can automatically feed paper weights from 60 to 220g / m^2 (16 to 58 lb bond) grain long. Paper lighter than 60g / m^2 (16 lb) might not be stiff enough to feed properly, causing jams. For best performance, use 75g / m^2 (20 lb bond) grain long paper. For paper smaller than 182× 257mm (7.2 x 10.1 in.), we recommend 90g / m^2 (24 lb) or heavier paper.

Note: Duplex is supported only for 63 g/m ^2 –170 g/m ^2 (17 lb–45 lb bond) paper.

Curl

Curl is the tendency for paper to curl at its edges. Excessive curl can cause paper feeding problems. Curl can occur after the paper passes through the printer, where it is exposed to high temperatures. Storing paper unwrapped in hot, humid, cold, or dry conditions, even in the trays, can contribute to paper curling prior to printing and can cause feeding problems.

Smoothness

Paper smoothness directly affects print quality. If paper is too rough, toner cannot fuse to it properly. If paper is too smooth, it can cause paper feeding or print quality issues. Always use paper between 100 and 300 Sheffield points; however, smoothness between 150 and 200 Sheffield points produces the best print quality.

Moisture content

The amount of moisture in paper affects both print quality and the ability of the printer to feed the paper correctly. Leave paper in its original wrapper until it is time to use it. This limits the exposure of paper to moisture changes that can degrade its performance.

Condition paper before printing by storing it in its original wrapper in the same environment as the printer for 24 to 48 hours before printing. Extend the time several days if the storage or transportation environment is very different from the printer environment. Thick paper may also require a longer conditioning period.

Grain direction

Grain refers to the alignment of the paper fibers in a sheet of paper. Grain is either grain long, running the length of the paper, or grain short, running the width of the paper.

For 60 to 135g / m^2 (16 to 36 lb bond) paper, grain long paper is recommended. For papers heavier than 135g / m^2 , grain short is recommended.

Fiber content

Most high-quality xerographic paper is made from 100% chemically treated pulped wood. This content provides the paper with a high degree of stability resulting in fewer paper feeding problems and better print quality. Paper containing fibers such as cotton can negatively affect paper handling.

Unacceptable paper

The following paper types are not recommended for use with the printer:

  • Chemically treated papers used to make copies without carbon paper, also known as carbonless papers, carbonless copy paper (CCP), or no carbon required (NCR) paper
    •Preprinted papers with chemicals that may contaminate the printer
  • Preprinted papers that can be affected by the temperature in the printer fuser
  • Preprinted papers that require a registration (the precise print location on the page) greater than ± 2.3 mm ( ± 0.9 in.), such as optical character recognition (OCR) forms In some cases, registration can be adjusted with a software application to successfully print on these forms.

•Coated papers (erasable bond), synthetic papers, thermal papers

- Rough-edged, rough or heavily textured surface papers, or curled papers

•Recycled papers that fail EN12281:2002 (European)

•Paper weighing less than 60 g/m ^2 (16 lb)

• Multiple-part forms or documents

Selecting paper

Using appropriate paper prevents jams and helps ensure trouble-free printing.

To help avoid jams and poor print quality:

•Always use new, undamaged paper.
- Before loading paper, know the recommended print side of the paper. This information is usually indicated on the paper package.
- Do not use paper that has been cut or trimmed by hand.
- Do not mix paper sizes, types, or weights in the same source; mixing results in jams.
- Do not use coated papers unless they are specifically designed for electrophotographic printing.

Selecting preprinted forms and letterhead

Use these guidelines when selecting preprinted forms and letterhead:

  • Use grain long for 60 to 90g / m^2 weight paper.
  • Use only forms and letterhead printed using an offset lithographic or engraved printing process.
  • Avoid papers with rough or heavily textured surfaces.

Use papers printed with heat-resistant inks designed for use in xerographic copiers. The ink must be able to withstand temperatures up to 230^ C ( 446^ F) without melting or releasing hazardous emissions. Use inks that are not affected by the resin in toner. Inks that are oxidation-set or oil-based generally meet these requirements; latex inks might not.

When in doubt, contact the paper supplier.

Preprinted papers such as letterhead must be able to withstand temperatures up to 230^ C ( 446^ F) without melting or releasing hazardous emissions.

Using recycled paper

As an environmentally conscious company, Lexmark supports the use of recycled office paper produced specifically for use in laser (electrophotographic) printers. In 1998, Lexmark presented to the US government a study demonstrating that recycled paper produced by major mills in the US fed as well as non-recycled paper. However, no blanket statement can be made that all recycled paper will feed well.

Lexmark consistently tests its printers with recycled paper (20–100% post-consumer waste) and a variety of test paper from around the world, using chamber tests for different temperature and humidity conditions. Lexmark has found no reason to discourage the use of today's recycled office papers, but generally the following property guidelines apply to recycled paper.

•Low moisture content (4–5%)
- Suitable smoothness (100–200 Sheffield units)
- Suitable sheet-to-sheet coefficient of friction (0.4–0.6)
- Sufficient bending resistance in the direction of feed

Recycled paper, paper of lower weight (<60 gm ^2 /16 lb bond) and/or lower caliper (<3.8 mils/0.1 mm), and paper that is cut grain-short for portrait (or short-edge) fed printers may have lower bending resistance than is required for reliable paper feeding. Before using these types of paper for laser (electrophotographic) printing, consult your paper supplier. Remember that these are general guidelines only and that paper meeting these guidelines may still cause paper feeding problems.

Using letterhead

Check with the manufacturer or vendor to determine whether the chosen preprinted letterhead is acceptable for laser printers.

Page orientation is important when printing on letterhead. Use the following sections to determine which direction to load the letterhead in each paper source:

Using transparencies

Print samples on the transparencies being considered for use before buying large quantities.

When printing on transparencies:

• From MarkVision Professional, Print Properties, or the control panel, set the Paper Type to Transparency.
- Feed transparencies from the standard tray or the multipurpose feeder.
- Use transparencies designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure transparencies are able to withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without melting, discoloring, offsetting, or releasing hazardous emissions.
- Use transparencies that are 0.12–0.14 mm (4.8–5.4 mil) in thickness or 161–179 g/m² in weight. Print quality and durability depend on the transparencies used.
• To prevent print quality problems, avoid getting fingerprints on the transparencies.
- Before loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together.
• We recommend Lexmark part number 12A8240 for letter-size transparencies.

Using envelopes

Print samples on the envelopes being considered for use before buying large quantities.

When printing on envelopes:

  • From the control panel, set the Paper Source based on the source in use. From MarkVision Professional, Print Properties, or the control panel, set the Paper Type to Envelope, and select the envelope size.
  • Use envelopes designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure the envelopes can withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without sealing, wrinkling, curling excessively, or releasing hazardous emissions.
  • For the best performance, use envelopes made from 90 ~g / m^-2 (24 lb bond) paper. Use up to 105 ~g / m^2 (28 lb bond) weight for envelopes as long as the cotton content is 25 % or less. All-cotton envelopes must not exceed 90 ~g / m^2 (24 lb bond) weight.
  • Use only new envelopes.
    •To optimize performance and minimize jams, do not use envelopes that:

—Have excessive curl or twist

—Are stuck together or damaged in any way

—Have windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossing
—Have metal clasps, string ties, or folding bars
—Have an interlocking design
—Have postage stamps attached
—Have any exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed or closed position
—Have bent corners
—Have rough, cockle, or laid finishes

- Adjust the width guide to fit the width of the envelopes.

Note: A combination of high humidity (over 60%) and the high printing temperature may wrinkle or seal envelopes.

Using labels

Print samples on the labels being considered for use before buying large quantities.

For detailed information on label printing, characteristics, and design, see the Card Stock & Label Guide available on the Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com/publications.

When printing on labels:

  • From MarkVision Professional, Print Properties, or the control panel, set the Paper Type to Labels.
  • Use only letter, A4, or legal-size label sheets.
  • Use labels designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to verify that label adhesives, face sheet (printable stock), and topcoats can withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) and pressure up to 25 psi without delaminating, oozing around the edges, or releasing hazardous fumes. Do not use vinyl labels.
  • Do not use labels with slick backing material.
  • Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a jam. Partial sheets also contaminate the printer and the cartridge with adhesive, and could void the printer and cartridge warranties.
  • Do not use labels with exposed adhesive.
  • Do not print within 1 mm (0.04 in.) of the edge of the label, of the perforations, or between die-cuts of the label.
  • Be sure adhesive backing does not reach to the sheet edge. Zone coating of the adhesive at least 1 mm (0.04 in.) away from edges is recommended. Adhesive material contaminates the printer and could void the warranty.
  • If zone coating of the adhesive is not possible, remove a 1.6 mm (0.06 in.) strip on the leading and driver edge, and use a non-oozing adhesive.
  • Portrait orientation works best, especially when printing bar codes.

Using card stock

Card stock is heavy, single-ply print media. Many of its variable characteristics, such as moisture content, thickness, and texture, can significantly impact print quality. Print samples on the card stock being considered for use before buying large quantities.

When printing on card stock:

•From MarkVision Professional, or the control panel:

1 Set the Paper Type to Card Stock.

2 Select a Card Stock Texture setting.

  • Be aware that preprinting, perforation, and creasing may significantly affect the print quality and cause jams or other paper handling problems.
  • Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure the card stock can withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without releasing hazardous emissions.
  • Do not use preprinted card stock manufactured with chemicals that may contaminate the printer. Preprinting introduces semi-liquid and volatile components into the printer.
  • Use grain long card stock when possible.

Storing paper

Use these paper storage guidelines to help avoid jams and uneven print quality:

  • For best results, store paper where the temperature is 21°C (70°F) and the relative humidity is 40%. Most label manufacturers recommend printing in a temperature range of 18 to 24°C (65 to 75°F) with relative humidity between 40 and 60%.
  • Store paper in cartons when possible, on a pallet or shelf, rather than on the floor.
  • Store individual packages on a flat surface.
  • Do not store anything on top of individual paper packages.

This chapter covers printing, printer reports, and job cancellation. The selection and handling of paper and specialty media can affect how reliably documents print. For more information, see "Avoiding jams" and "Storing paper."

Installing printer software

A printer driver is software that lets the computer communicate with the printer. The printer software is typically installed during the initial printer setup. For more information, see the Setup sheet or Setup Guide that shipped with the printer or click Install printer and software on the Software and Documentation CD.

When Print is chosen from a software application, a dialog representing the printer driver opens. Click Properties, Preferences, Options, or Setup from the initial Print dialog to open Print Properties and see all of the available printer settings that may be changed. If a feature in Print Properties is unfamiliar, open the online Help for more information.

Note: Print settings selected from the driver override the default settings selected from the control panel.

Printing confidential and other held jobs

Holding jobs in the printer

When sending a job to the printer, you can specify in the Print Properties that you want the printer to hold the job in memory until you start the job from the control panel. All print jobs that can be initiated by the user at the printer are called held jobs.

Note: Confidential, Repeat, Reserve, and Verify print jobs may be deleted if the printer requires extra memory to process additional held jobs.

Job type Description
Confidential When you send a Confidential print job to the printer, you must create a PIN in Print Properties. The PIN must be four digits using the numbers 0–9. The job is held in printer memory until you enter the PIN from the control panel and choose to print or delete the job.
Repeat When you send a Repeat print job, the printer prints all requested copies of the job and stores the job in memory so you can print additional copies later. You can print additional copies as long as the job remains stored in memory.
Reserve When you send a Reserve print job, the printer does not print the job immediately. It stores the job in memory so you can print the job later. The job is held in memory until you delete it from the Held Jobs menu.
Verify When you send a Verify print job, the printer prints one copy and holds the remaining copies in printer memory. Verify lets you examine the first copy to see if it is satisfactory before printing the remaining copies. Once all copies are printed, the job is automatically deleted from printer memory.

A USB Direct interface is located on the control panel. Insert a USB flash memory device to print supported file types. Supported file types include: .pdf, .gif, .jpeg, .jpg, .bmp, .png, .tiff, .tif, .pcx, and .dcx.

Many USB flash memory devices are tested and approved for use with the printer. For more information, visit the Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com.

Notes:

  • Hi-Speed USB devices must support the Full-speed standard. Devices only supporting USB Low-speed capabilities are not supported.
  • USB devices must support the FAT (File Allocation Tables) system. Devices formatted with NTFS (New Technology File System) or any other file system are not supported.
  • Before printing an encrypted .pdf file, enter the file password from the control panel.
  • You cannot print files for which you do not have printing permissions.

To print from a USB flash memory device:

1 Make sure the printer is on and Ready or Busy appears.

Locking the control panel menus using the Embedded Web Server

You can use the control panel lockout functionality to create a PIN and choose specific menus to lock. Each time a locked menu is selected, the user will be prompted to enter the correct PIN. The PIN does not affect access through the Embedded Web Server.

To lock control panel menus:

1 Open a Web browser. In the address bar, type the IP address of the printer or print server to be protected using the format: http://ip_address/.
2 Click Configuration.
3 Under Other Settings, click Security.
4 Click Menu Lockout Setup.

Locking the entire printer

You can use the printer lockout functionality to create a PIN that must be entered in order to use the printer. When the printer is locked, every print job it receives will buffer to the hard disk. To print the jobs, the user must enter the correct PIN using the control panel.

Notes:

  • A printer hard disk must be installed in the printer and working properly for the printer lockout functionality to be available.
  • Some data will continue to be processed while the printer is locked. Reports such as user or event logs can be retrieved from a locked printer.

To lock control panel menus:

1 Open a Web browser. In the address bar, type the IP address of the printer or print server to be protected using the format: http://ip_address/.
2 Click Configuration.
3 Under Other Settings, click Security.
4 Click Printer Lockout PIN.

Modifying confidential print settings

You can modify confidential print settings using the Embedded Web Server. You can set a maximum number of PIN entry attempts. When a user exceeds a specific number of PIN entry attempts, all of the jobs for that user are deleted.

You can set an expiration time for confidential print jobs. When a user has not printed the jobs within the designated time period, all of the jobs for that user are deleted.

Note: This functionality is only available on network printers.

To modify the confidential print settings:

1 Open a Web browser. In the address bar, type the IP address of the printer or print server to be protected using the format: http://ip_address/.
2 Click Configuration.
3 Under Other Settings, click Security.
4 Click Confidential Print Setup.

Supporting IPSec

Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) provides authentication and encryption at the network layer allowing all application and network connections over the IP protocol to be secure. IPSec can be set up between the printer and up to five hosts, using both IPv4 and IPv6.

To configure IPSec using the Embedded Web Server:

1 Open a Web browser. In the address bar, type the IP address of the printer or print server to be protected using the format: http://ip_address.
2 Click Configuration.
3 Under Other Settings, click Network/Ports.
4 Click IPSec.

IPSec supports two types of authentication:

  • Shared Key Authentication—Authenticates any ASCII phrase shared among all participating host computers. This is the easiest way to configure when only a few host computers on the network use IPSec.
  • Certificate Authentication—Authenticates any host computer or subnet of hosts for IPSec. Each host computer must have a public/private key pair. Validate Peer Certificate is enabled by default, requiring each host to have a signed authority certificate that is installed. Each host must have its identifier in the Subject Alternate Name field of the signed certificate.

Note: After a printer is configured for IPSec with a host, IPSec is required for any IP communications to take place.

Supporting SNMPv3

Simple Network Management Protocol version 3 (SNMPv3) allows for encrypted and authenticated network connections. It also lets a system support person select the desired level of security. Prior to use, at least one user name and password must be assigned from the settings page.

To configure SNMPv3 through the Embedded Web Server:

1 Open a Web browser. In the address bar, type the IP address of the printer or print server to be protected using the format: http://ip_address/.
2 Click Configuration.
3 Under Other Settings, click Network/Ports.
4 Click SNMP.

SNMPv3 authentication and encryption has three levels of support:

•No authentication and no encryption
•Authentication with no encryption
•Authentication and encryption

Using 802.1x authentication

802.1x authentication allows the printer to join networks that require authentication before allowing access. 802.1x port authentication can be used with the WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) feature of wireless printers or print servers to provide WPA-Enterprise security support.

Support for 802.1x requires the establishment of credentials for the printer, such as certificates. Certificates provide a way for the printer to be known to the Authentication Server (AS). The AS allows network access to wireless printers or print servers presenting a valid set of credentials. You can manage the credentials by using the Embedded Web Server.

To install and use certificates as part of the credentials:

1 Open a Web browser. In the address bar, type the IP address of the printer or print server to be protected using the format: http://ip_address/.
2 Click Configuration.
3 Under Other Settings, click Network/Ports.
4 Click Certificate Management.

To enable and configure 802.1x after installing the required certificates:

1 Open a Web browser. In the address bar, type the IP address of the printer or print server to be protected using the format: http://ip_address/.
2 Click Configuration.
3 Under Other Settings, click Network/Ports.

Troubleshooting

Checking an unresponsive printer

If your printer is not responding, make sure:

  • The power cord is plugged into the printer and a properly grounded electrical outlet.
    •The electrical outlet is not turned off by any switch or breaker.
    • The Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) has not tripped.

From the back of the printer, press the GFCI Reset button located above the printer power cord.

• The printer is not plugged into any surge protectors, uninterrupted power supplies, or extension cords.
- Other electrical equipment plugged into the outlet is working.
•The printer is turned on.
- The printer cable is securely attached to the printer and the host computer, print server, option, or other network device.

Once you have checked each of these possibilities, turn the printer off and then back on. This often fixes the problem.

Solving color quality problems

This section helps answer some basic color-related questions and describes how some of the features provided in the Quality Menu can be used to solve typical color problems.

FAQ about color printing

What is RGB color?

Red, green, and blue light can be added together in various amounts to produce a large range of colors observed in nature. For example, red and green can be combined to create yellow. Televisions and computer monitors create colors in this manner. RGB color is a method of describing colors by indicating the amount of red, green, or blue needed to produce a certain color.

What is CMYK color?

Cyan, magenta, yellow, and black inks or toners can be printed in various amounts to produce a large range of colors observed in nature. For example, cyan and yellow can be combined to create green. Printing presses, inkjet printers, and color laser printers create colors in this manner. CMYK color is a method of describing colors by indicating the amount of cyan, magenta, yellow, and black needed to reproduce a particular color.

How is color specified in a document to be printed?

Software programs typically specify document color using RGB or CMYK color combinations. Additionally, they allow users to modify the color of each object in a document. For more information, see the software program Help topics.

How does the printer know what color to print?

When a user prints a document, information describing the type and color of each object is sent to the printer. The color information is passed through color conversion tables that translate the color into the appropriate amounts of cyan, magenta, yellow, and black toner needed to produce the desired color. The object information determines the application of color conversion tables. For example, it is possible to apply one type of color conversion table to text while applying a different color conversion table to photographic images.

Should I use PostScript or PCL emulation printer software? What settings should I use for the best color?

The PostScript driver is strongly recommended for best color quality. The default settings in the PostScript driver provide the preferred color quality for the majority of printouts.

Why doesn't the printed color match the color I see on the computer screen?

The color conversion tables used in Auto Color Correction mode generally approximate the colors of a standard computer monitor. However, because of technology differences that exist between printers and monitors, there are many colors that can also be affected by monitor variations and lighting conditions. For recommendations on how the printer color sample pages may be useful in solving certain color-matching problems, see the question, "How can I match a particular color (such as a corporate logo)?"

The printed page appears tinted. Can I adjust the color?

Sometimes a printed page may appear tinted (for example, everything printed seems to be too red). This can be caused by environmental conditions, paper type, lighting conditions, or user preference. In these instances, adjust the Color Balance setting to create a more preferable color. Color Balance provides the user with the ability to make subtle adjustments to the amount of toner being used in each color plane. Selecting positive or negative values for cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (from the Color Balance menu) will slightly increase or decrease the amount of toner used for the chosen color. For example, if a printed page has a red tint, then decreasing both magenta and yellow could potentially improve the color balance.

My color transparencies seem dark when they are projected. Is there anything I can do to improve the color?

This problem most commonly occurs when projecting transparencies with reflective overhead projectors. To obtain the highest projected color quality, transmissive overhead projectors are recommended. If a reflective projector must be used, then adjusting the Toner Darkness setting to 1, 2, or 3 will lighten the transparency. Make sure to print on the recommended type of color transparencies.

What is manual color correction?

When manual color correction is enabled, the printer employs user-selected color conversion tables to process objects. However, Color Correction must be set to Manual, or no user-defined color conversion will be implemented. Manual color correction settings are specific to the type of object being printed (text, graphics, or images), and how the color of the object is specified in the software program (RGB or CMYK combinations).

Notes:

  • Manual color correction is not useful if the software program does not specify colors with RGB or CMYK combinations. It is also not effective in situations in which the software program or the computer operating system controls the adjustment of colors.
  • The color conversion tables—applied to each object when Color Correction is set to Auto—generate preferred colors for the majority of documents.

To manually apply a different color conversion table:

1 From the Quality menu, select Color Correction, and then select Manual.
2 From the Quality menu, select Manual Color, and then select the appropriate color conversion table for the affected object type.

Uses only black toner to create all levels of neutral gray.sRGB Vivid—Provides an increased color saturation for the sRGB Display color correction. Black usage is optimized for printing business graphics.Off—No color correction is implemented.
CMYK ImageCMYK TextCMYK GraphicsUS CMYK—Applies color correction to approximate the SWOP (Specifications for Web Offset Publishing) color output.Euro CMYK—Applies color correction to approximated EuroScale color output.Vivid CMYK—Increases the color saturation of the US CMYK color correction setting.Off—No color correction is implemented.

From the printer Quality menu, nine types of Color Samples sets are available. These are also available from the Color Samples page of the Embedded Web Server. Selecting any sample set generates a multiple-page printout consisting of hundreds of colored boxes. Either a CMYK or RGB combination is located on each box, depending on the table selected. The observed color of each box is obtained by passing the CMYK or RGB combination labeled on the box through the selected color conversion table.

By examining Color Samples sets, a user can identify the box whose color is the closest to the desired color. The color combination labeled on the box can then be used for modifying the color of the object in a software program. For more information, see the software program Help topics. Manual color correction may be necessary to utilize the selected color conversion table for the particular object.

Selecting which Color Samples set to use for a particular color-matching problem depends on the Color Correction setting being used (Auto, Off, or Manual), the type of object being printed (text, graphics, or images), and how the color of the object is specified in the software program (RGB or CMYK combinations). When the printer Color Correction setting is set to Off, the color is based on the print job information; and no color conversion is implemented.

Note: The Color Samples pages are not useful if the software program does not specify colors with RGB or CMYK combinations. Additionally, certain situations exist in which the software program or the computer operating system adjusts the RGB or CMYK combinations specified in the program through color management. The resulting printed color may not be an exact match of the Color Samples pages.

What are detailed Color Samples and how do I access them?

Detailed Color Samples sets are available only through the Embedded Web Server of a network printer. A detailed Color Samples set contains a range of shades (displayed as colored boxes) that are similar to a user-defined RGB or CMYK value. The likeness of the colors in the set are dependent on the value entered in the RGB or CMYK Increment box.

To access a detailed Color Samples set from the Embedded Web Server:

1 Open a Web browser.
2 In the address bar, type the network printer IP address.
3 Click Configuration.
4 Click Color Samples.
5 Click Detailed Options to narrow the set to one color range.
6 When the Detailed Options page appears, select a color conversion table.
7 Enter the RGB or CMYK color number.
8 Enter an Increment value from 1–255.
Note: The closer the value is to 1, the narrower the color sample range will appear.
9 Click Print to print the detailed Color Samples set.

Federal Communications Commission (FCC) compliance information statement

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments (ACTA). On the back of this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be provided to your telephone company.

This equipment uses the RJ-11C Universal Service Order Code (USOC) jack.

A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises' wiring and telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to a compatible modular jack that is also compliant. See your setup documentation for more information.

The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact your local telephone company. For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for this product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (for example, 03 is a REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the REN is shown separately on the label.

If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. If advance notice is not practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. You will also be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the operation of this equipment. If this happens, the telephone company will provide advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.

If you experience trouble with this equipment, for repair or warranty information, contact Lexmark International, Inc. at www.lexmark.com or your Lexmark representative. If the equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may request that you disconnect the equipment until the problem is resolved.

Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission, public service commission, or corporation commission for information.

If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, ensure the installation of this equipment does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.

Telephone companies report that electrical surges, typically lightning transients, are very destructive to customer terminal equipment connected to AC power sources. This has been identified as a major nationwide problem. It is recommended that the customer install an appropriate AC surge arrestor in the AC outlet to which this device is connected. An appropriate AC surge arrestor is defined as one that is suitably rated, and certified by UL (Underwriter's Laboratories), another NRTL (Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory), or a recognized safety certification body in the country/region of use. This is to avoid damage to the equipment caused by local lightning strikes and other electrical surges.

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any person to use a computer or other electronic device, including fax machines, to send any message unless said message clearly contains in a margin at the top or bottom of each transmitted page or on the first page of the transmission, the date and time it is sent and an identification of the business or other entity, or other individual sending the message, and the telephone number of the sending

machine or such business, other entity, or individual. (The telephone number provided may not be a 900 number or any other number for which charges exceed local or long-distance transmission charges.)

See your user documentation in order to program this information into your fax machine.

Using this product in Switzerland

This product requires a Swiss billing tone filter (Lexmark part number 14B5109 or 80D1877) to be installed on any line which receives metering pulses in Switzerland. The Lexmark filter must be used, as metering pulses are present on all analog telephone lines in Switzerland.

The printer is certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS 21 CFR Subchapter J for Class I (1) laser products, and elsewhere is certified as a Class I laser product conforming to the requirements of IEC 60825-1.

Class I laser products are not considered to be hazardous. The printer contains internally a Class IIIb (3b) laser that is nominally a 5 milliwatt gallium arsenide laser operating in the wavelength of 770-795 nanometers. The laser system and printer are designed so there is never any human access to laser radiation above a Class I level during normal operation, user maintenance, or prescribed service condition.

Power consumption

Product power consumption

The following table documents the power consumption characteristics of the product.

Note: Some modes may not apply to your product.

Mode Description Power consumption(Watts)
PrintingThe product is generating hard-copy output from electronic inputs.800 W
CopyingThe product is generating hard-copy output from hard-copy original documents.NA
ScanningThe product is scanning hard-copy documents.NA
Ready The product is waiting for a print job. 200 W
Power SaverThe product is in energy-saving mode.<17 W
High Off The product is plugged into a wall outlet, but the power switch is turned off.NA
Low Off (<1 W Off)The product is plugged into a wall outlet, the power switch is turned off, and the product is in the lowest possible power consumption mode.NA
Off The product is plugged into a wall outlet, but the power switch is turned off.110V = .13 W, 220V = 1.15W

The power consumption levels listed in the previous table represent time-averaged measurements. Instantaneous power draws may be substantially higher than the average.

Values are subject to change. See www.lexmark.com for current values.

Power Saver

This product is designed with an energy-saving mode called Power Saver. The Power Saver Mode is equivalent to the EPA Sleep Mode. The Power Saver Mode saves energy by lowering power consumption during extended periods of inactivity. The Power Saver Mode is automatically engaged after this product is not used for a specified period of time, called the Power Saver Timeout.

Factory default Power Saver Timeout for this product (in minutes): 110V = 45 minutes, 220V = 60 minutes

By using the configuration menus, the Power Saver Timeout can be modified between 1 minute and 240 minutes. Setting the Power Saver Timeout to a low value reduces energy consumption, but may increase the response time of the product. Setting the Power Saver Timeout to a high value maintains a fast response, but uses more energy.

Off mode

If this product has an off mode which still consumes a small amount of power, then to completely stop product power consumption, disconnect the power supply cord from the wall outlet.

Total energy usage

It is sometimes helpful to calculate the total product energy usage. Since power consumption claims are provided in power units of Watts, the power consumption should be multiplied by the time the product spends in each mode in order to calculate energy usage. The total product energy usage is the sum of each mode's energy usage.

This limitation of remedies also applies to claims against any Suppliers and Remarketers of Lexmark. Lexmark's and its Suppliers' and Remarketers' limitations of remedies are not cumulative. Such Suppliers and Remarketers are intended beneficiaries of this limitation.

Additional rights

Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, or do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the limitations or exclusions contained above may not apply to you.

This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may also have other rights that vary from state to state.
