Printing on Media30
How do I load and print transparencies?
Note
Using unsupported transparency media such as coated color
transparencies will result in damaging the printer and in voiding your
warranty.
Remove transparency media as soon as possible from the output tray to
avoid static buildup.
If you touch the face of transparencies with your bare hands, print quality may
be affected. Do not handle transparency media too much.
You can print continuously with transparencies. However, this could affect the
media feed, depending on the media quality, static buildup, and printing envi-
ronment. If you have problems loading a large number of transparencies at a
time, try loading only 1–10 sheets.
