temperatures up to 185°C (365°F) without melting, discoloring, offsetting, or releasing hazardous
emissions.
Note: If the transparency weight is set to Heavy and the transparency texture is set to Rough in the
Paper menu, then transparencies can be printed at a temperature up to 195°C (383°F).
• Avoid getting fingerprints on the transparencies to prevent print quality problems.
