Overview

This document provides a comprehensive guide to operating and maintaining a printing device, covering various printing methods, handling confidential jobs, and resolving common issues like paper jams and toner cartridge replacement.

The device's primary function is to print documents from various sources, including computers and mobile devices. It supports several mobile printing solutions, enhancing its versatility and ease of use in modern environments.

Printing from a Computer

For standard printing from a computer, users initiate the print process from their document's print dialog. The device allows for adjustments to settings before printing, ensuring flexibility for different print jobs. It's important to note that for specific media like labels, card stock, and envelopes, users must set the correct paper size and type on the printer itself to ensure proper output and prevent issues.

Printing from Mobile Devices

The device offers multiple options for mobile printing, catering to different operating systems and connectivity preferences:

  • Google Cloud Print: This service enables printing from any Google Cloud Print-ready printer. To use this feature, the printer must be registered to the Google Cloud Print server, and the Cloud Print plugin must be downloaded and enabled on the Android mobile device. Users can open a document from their device or file manager, tap the print icon, select the printer, and then initiate the print job.
  • Mopria Print Service: Designed for Android devices running version 5.0 or later, Mopria Print Service allows direct printing to any Mopria-certified printer. Users need to download and enable the Mopria Print Service application from the Google Play store. The process involves launching a compatible application or selecting a document, tapping the print icon, choosing a printer, adjusting settings if needed, and then printing.
  • AirPrint: This feature provides a mobile printing solution for Apple devices, allowing direct printing to AirPrint-certified printers. For AirPrint to function correctly, both the Apple device and the printer must be connected to the same network and subnet if multiple wireless hubs are present. Users select a document, tap the print icon, choose a printer, adjust settings, and then print.
  • Wi-Fi Direct®: This service enables direct printing to any Wi-Fi Direct-ready printer without needing a router. Users must ensure their mobile device is connected to the printer's wireless network. The process involves launching an application or selecting a document, tapping the print icon (the exact icon may vary by mobile device), selecting the printer, adjusting settings, and then printing.

Printing Confidential and Other Held Jobs

The device supports secure printing for confidential documents and allows users to hold print jobs for later release. This feature is available for both Windows and Macintosh users.

  • For Windows Users: From an open document, users navigate to File > Print, then click Properties, Preferences, Options, or Setup. They select "Print and Hold," assign a user name, and choose the print job type (Confidential, Repeat, Reserve, or Verify). For confidential jobs, a four-digit PIN is required. After clicking OK or Print, the job is sent to the printer. To release the job from the printer's home screen, users navigate to "Held jobs," select their user name, and then choose the job type. For confidential jobs, the PIN must be entered before configuring settings and printing.
  • For Macintosh Users: From an open document, users choose File > Print. If necessary, they click the disclosure triangle for more options. From the print options or Copies & Pages menu, they select "Job Routing" and choose the print job type. For confidential jobs, a user name and a four-digit PIN are assigned. After clicking OK or Print, the job is sent to the printer. To release the job from the printer's home screen, users navigate to "Held jobs," select their user name, and then choose the job type. For confidential jobs, the PIN must be entered before configuring settings and printing.

Maintenance Features

Regular maintenance is crucial for the device's optimal performance, particularly replacing the toner cartridge and clearing paper jams.

Replacing the Toner Cartridge

The process involves several steps to ensure safe and effective replacement:

  1. Open the front door: This provides access to the printer's interior.
  2. Electrostatic Discharge Precaution: Before touching any interior areas, users must touch any exposed metal frame of the printer to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge.
  3. Remove the imaging unit: This component houses the toner cartridge.
  4. Remove the used toner cartridge: Twist the blue latch to release the cartridge from the imaging unit.
  5. Light Exposure Warning: The imaging unit should not be exposed to direct light for more than 10 minutes, as extended exposure can cause print quality problems.
  6. Photoconductor Drum Precaution: Users must avoid touching the photoconductor drum, as doing so can affect the quality of future print jobs.
  7. Unpack the new toner cartridge: Prepare the new cartridge for installation.
  8. Redistribute toner: Shake the new toner cartridge to ensure the toner is evenly distributed.
  9. Insert the new toner cartridge: Place the new cartridge into the imaging unit until it clicks into place.
  10. Insert the imaging unit: Reinstall the imaging unit into the printer.
  11. Close the door: Secure the front door of the printer.

Loading Trays

Proper paper loading is essential to prevent jams and ensure smooth printing:

  1. Remove the tray: Users should not remove the tray while the printer is busy to avoid paper jams.
  2. Adjust guides: Match the guides to the size of the paper being loaded.
  3. Prepare paper: Flex, fan, and align the paper edges before loading.
  4. Load paper stack: Load the paper stack with the printable side facedown, ensuring guides fit snugly.
    • Notes for Letterhead: For one-sided printing, load letterhead facedown with the header toward the front. For two-sided printing, load letterhead faceup with the header toward the back.
    • General Precautions: Do not slide paper into the tray. Ensure the stack height is below the maximum paper fill indicator to avoid jams.

Loading the Multipurpose Feeder

The multipurpose feeder handles various media types:

  1. Open the multipurpose feeder: Access the feeder.
  2. Envelope Precaution: Do not use envelopes with stamps, clasps, snaps, windows, coated linings, or self-stick adhesives, as these can cause damage.
  3. Adjust the guide: Match the guide to the size of the paper being loaded.
  4. Set paper size and type: From the control panel, set the paper size and type to match the loaded paper.
  5. Flex, fan, and align paper edges: Prepare the paper before loading.
  6. Load paper: Load paper with the printable side faceup.
    • Notes for Letterhead: For one-sided printing, load letterhead faceup with the header toward the rear. For two-sided printing, load letterhead facedown with the header toward the front.
    • Envelopes: Load envelopes with the flap facedown on the left side.

Setting the Paper Size and Type

From the control panel, navigate to Settings > Paper > Tray Configuration > Paper Size/Type, and then select the appropriate paper source, size, and type.

Connecting a Mobile Device to the Printer

This feature is model-dependent. Before connecting, ensure Wi-Fi Direct is enabled on the printer (Settings > Network/Ports > Wireless > Enable Wi-Fi Direct > On). Also, view the Wi-Fi Direct SSID from the control panel.

  • Using Wi-Fi Direct: On the mobile device, go to settings, enable Wi-Fi, tap Wi-Fi Direct, select the printer SSID, and confirm the connection on the printer control panel.
  • Using Wi-Fi: On the mobile device, go to settings, tap Wi-Fi, select the printer SSID (which will have "DIRECT-xy" appended), and enter the preshared key (password).

Clearing Jams

Preventing jams is key to smooth operation.

Avoiding Jams

  • Load paper properly: Ensure paper lies flat in the tray. Paper guides should be positioned correctly without pressing tightly against the paper or envelopes. Push the tray firmly into the printer.
  • Use recommended paper: Only use recommended paper or specialty media. Avoid wrinkled, creased, damp, bent, or curled paper.
  • Loading Precautions: Do not load or remove a tray while printing. Do not overload the tray; ensure the stack height is below the maximum fill indicator. Do not slide paper into the tray.
  • Paper Quality: Do not use hand-cut or trimmed paper. Do not mix paper sizes, weights, or types in the same tray.
  • Settings: Ensure paper size and type settings on the computer or printer control panel are correct.
  • Storage: Store paper according to manufacturer recommendations.

Identifying Jam Locations
