How do I load and print thick stock?

Attention

Do not mix thick stock with any other media in the same tray, as this will
cause printer jamming.

In the printer driver (Paper tab, Media Type option), select Thick.

If you are in Network Mode, on the control panel, select Operator Control/
MPT Media, and select Thick Stock.

Load the new media.

Adjust the media guides.

Print the thick stock.

How do I load and print transparencies?

Attention

Use only transparency media approved for this printer. Check
www.minolta-qms.com for currently approved media. To order
approved media, go to www.q-shop.com.

In the printer driver (Paper tab, Media Type option), select Transparency
and select either Letter or A4.

If you are in Network Mode, on the control panel, select Operator Control/
MPT Media, and select Transparency.

Press the MP Size Select

key and scroll to the required transpar-

ency size and select it.

Fan a few transparencies.

Fanning a large number will
build up static electricity.

Put media face-up in the multi-
purpose tray and adjust the media
guides to the width of the transparencies.

Attention

Improperly adjusted guides may cause poor print quality, media
jams, or printer damage.

Print the transparencies.

Immediately remove the printed transparencies from the output tray.
