Print Media Guidelines

Print media is paper, card stock, transparencies, labels, and envelopes. Your printer provides high quality
printing on a variety of print media. Selecting the appropriate print media for your printer helps you to avoid
printing problems. This chapter provides information on how to help you make print media selections, how to
care for the print media, and how to load it in the tray 1, optional tray 2, or MPF.
Paper
For the best print quality, use 75 g/m2 (20 lb) xerographic, long grain paper. Try a sample of any paper you
are considering using with the printer before buying large quantities.
When loading paper, note the recommended print side on the paper package, and load the paper
accordingly. See "Loading Print Media in the Paper Tray" and "Using the MPF (Multi purpose feeder)" for
detailed loading instructions.
Paper Characteristics
The following paper characteristics affect print quality and reliability. We recommend that you follow these
guidelines when evaluating new paper stock.
Weight
The printer can automatically feed paper weights from 60 to 105 g/m2 (16 to 24lb bond) grain long in the
DADF and from 60 to 105g/m2 (16 to 24 lb bond) grain long in the paper tray. Paper lighter than 60 g/m2
(16 lb) may not be stiff enough to feed properly, causing jams. For best performance, use 75 g/m 2 (20 lb
bond) long grain paper.
For duplex printing, use 75 to 90 g/m2 (20 to 24 lb bond) paper.
Curl
Curl is the tendency of print media to curve at its edges. Excessive curl can cause paper feeding problems.
Curl usually occurs after the paper passes through the printer, where it is exposed to high temperatures.
Storing paper unwrapped in humid conditions, even in the paper tray, can contribute to paper curling prior to
printing and can cause feeding problems.
Smoothness
The degree of smoothness of the paper directly affects the print quality. If the paper is too rough, the toner
does not fuse to the paper properly, resulting in poor print quality. If the paper is too smooth, it can cause
paper feeding problems. Smoothness should be between 100 and 300 Sheffield points; however, smoothness
between 150 and 250 Sheffield points produces the best print quality.
Moisture Content
The amount of moisture in the paper affects both print quality and the ability of the printer to feed the paper
properly. Leave the paper in its original wrapper until you are ready to use it. This limits the exposure of the
paper to moisture changes that can degrade its performance.
Grain Direction
Grain refers to the alignment of the paper fibers in a sheet of paper. Grain is either long grain, running the
length of the paper, or short grain, running the width of the paper.
For 60 to 90 g/m2 (16 to 24 lb bond) paper, grain long fibers are recommended. For papers heavier than 90
g/m 2 (24 lb bond), grain short is preferred. For the MPF, 60 to 90 g/m2 (16 to 24 lb bond) paper, grain long
fibers are recommended.
Fiber Content
Most high-quality xerographic paper is made from 100% chemically 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 possess characteristics that can result in degraded paper handling.
Recommended Paper
To ensure the best print quality and feed reliability, use 75 g/m2 (20 lb) xerographic paper. Business papers
designed for general business use may also provide acceptable print quality.
Always print several samples before buying large quantities of any type of print media. When choosing any
print media, consider the weight, fiber content, and color.
Use only paper which can withstand these temperatures without discoloring, bleeding, or releasing
hazardous emissions. Check with the paper manufacturer or vendor to determine whether the paper you
have chosen is acceptable for laser printers.
Unacceptable Paper
The following papers 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
0.09 in., such as optical character recognition (OCR) forms
Coated papers (erasable bond), synthetic papers, thermal papers
Rough-edged, rough or heavily textured surface papers or curled papers
Recycled papers containing more than 25% post-consumer waste that do not meet DIN 19 309
Recycled paper having a weight less than 60 g/m2 (16 lb)
Multiple-part forms or documents
Selecting Paper
Proper paper loading helps prevent jams and ensures trouble-free printing.
To help avoid jams or poor print quality:

Always use new, undamaged paper.
Before loading paper, know the recommended print side of the paper you are using. This information is
usually indicated on the paper package.
Do not use paper that you have cut or trimmed yourself.
Do not mix print media sizes, weights, or types in the same source; mixing results in jams.
Do not use coated papers.
Remember to change the paper size setting when you use a source that does not support auto size
sensing.
Do not remove trays while a job is printing.
Ensure that the paper is properly loaded in the source.
Flex paper back and forth. Do not fold or crease the paper. Straighten the edges on a level surface.
Selecting Preprinted Forms and Letterhead paper

Use the following guidelines when selecting preprinted forms and letterhead paper for the printer:
Use long grain papers for best results.
Use only forms and letterheads printed using an offset lithographic or engraved printing process.
Choose papers that absorb ink, but do not bleed.
Avoid papers with rough or heavily textured surfaces.
Use papers printed with heat-resistant inks which have been designed for use in xerographic copiers. The ink
must withstand temperatures of 180 C (356 F) without melting or releasing hazardous emissions. Use inks
that are not affected by the resin in the toner or the silicone in the fuser. Inks that are oxidation-set or oilbased should meet these requirements; latex inks might not. If you are in doubt, contact your paper
supplier.
Preprinted papers such as letterheads must be able to withstand temperatures up to 180 C (356 F) without
melting or releasing hazardous emissions.
Printing on a Letterhead paper

Check with the manufacturer or vendor to determine whether the preprinted letterhead paper that you have
chosen is acceptable for laser printers.
Page orientation is important when printing on a letterhead paper. Use the following table for help when
loading a letterhead paper in the print media sources.

Selecting Prepunched Paper

Prepunched paper brands can differ in the number and placement of holes and in manufacturing techniques.
Use the following guidelines to select and use prepunched paper:

Test paper from several manufacturers before ordering and using large quantities of pre-punched
paper.
Paper should be punched at the paper manufacturer and not drilled into paper already packaged in a
ream. Drilled paper can cause jams when multiple sheets feed through the printer.
Prepunched paper can include more paper dust than standard paper. Your printer may require more
frequent cleaning and feed reliability may not be as good as that of standard paper.
Transparencies
Try a sample of any transparencies you are considering using with the printer before buying large quantities:
Use transparencies designed specifically for laser printers. Transparencies must be able to withstand
temperatures of 180 C (356 F) without melting, discoloring, offsetting or releasing hazardous
emissions.
Avoid getting fingerprints on the transparencies, as this can cause poor print quality.
Before loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent the sheets from sticking together.
Load one transparency into the MPF.
Selecting Transparencies
The printer can print directly on transparencies which have been designed for use in laser printers. Print
quality and durability depends on the transparency used. Always print samples on the transparencies you are
considering before buying large quantities.
Check with the manufacturer or vendor to determine whether your transparencies are compatible with laser
printers that heat transparencies to 180 C (356 F). Use only transparencies that are able to withstand
these temperatures without melting, discoloring, offsetting, or releasing hazardous emissions.
Envelopes
Try a sample of any envelopes you are considering using with the printer before buying large quantities. See
"Using the MPF (Multi purpose feeder)" for instructions on loading an envelope.
When printing on envelopes:

To achieve the best possible print quality, use only high-quality envelopes that are designed for use in
laser printers.
For best performance, use envelopes made from 75 g/m2 (20 lb bond) paper. You can use up to 90
g/m 2 (24 lb bond) weight for the MPF as long as the cotton content is 25 percent or less.
Use only new, undamaged envelopes.
For best performance and to minimize jams, do not use envelopes that:
- Have excessive curl or twist
- Are stuck together or damaged in any way
- Contain windows, holes, perforations, cutouts or embossing
- Use metal clasps, string ties, or metal 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 nicked edges or bent corners
- Have rough, cockle, or laid finishes
Use envelopes that can withstand temperatures of 180 C (356 F) without sealing, excessive curling,
wrinkling, or releasing hazardous emissions. If you have any doubts about the envelopes you are
considering using, check with the envelope supplier.
Adjust the width guide to fit the width of the envelopes.
Load an envelope with the flap side down and with the stamp area on the top left side. The end of the
envelope with the stamp area enters the MPF first.
See "Using the MPF (Multi purpose feeder)" for instructions on loading an envelope.
NOTE: You can improve the printing quality of envelopes by pulling down the rear door to open
and pushing the two blue pressure levers down. This instruction will be especially helpful for
DL, and C5 size envelopes.
A combination of high humidity (over 60%) and the high printing temperatures may seal the
envelopes.
Labels
Your printer can print on many labels designed for use with laser printers. These labels are supplied in letter
size, A4 size, and legal size sheets. Label adhesives, face sheet (printable stock), and topcoats must be able
to withstand temperatures of 180 C
(356 F) and pressure of 25 pounds per square inch (psi). You can load one label sheet at a time in the MPF.
Try a sample of any label you are considering using with the printer before purchasing a large quantity:
Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a jam.
Partial sheets also contaminate your printer and your cartridge with adhesive, and could void your
printer and cartridge warranties.
Use labels that can withstand temperatures of 180 C (356 F) without sealing, excessive curling,
wrinkling, or releasing hazardous emissions.
Do not print within 0.04 in. (1 mm) of the edge of the label, of the perforations, or between die-cuts of
the label.
Do not use label sheets that have adhesive to the edge of the sheet. We recommend zone coating of
the adhesive at least 0.04 in. (1 mm) away from edges. Adhesive material contaminates your printer
and could void your warranty.
If zone coating of the adhesive is not possible, a 0.125 in. (3 mm) strip should be removed on the
leading and driver edge, and a non-oozing adhesive should be used.
Remove a 0.125 in. (3 mm) strip from the leading edge to prevent labels from peeling inside the
printer.
Portrait orientation is preferred, especially when printing bar codes.
Do not use labels that have exposed adhesive.
Card Stock
Card stock is single ply, and has a large array of properties, such as the moisture content, thickness, and
texture, that can significantly affect print quality. See "Identifying Print Media Sources and Specifications" for
information on the preferred weight for the grain direction of print media.
Try a sample of any card stock you are considering using with the printer before purchasing a large quantity:
Be aware that preprinting, perforation, and creasing can significantly affect the print quality and cause
print media handling or jamming problems.
Avoid using card stock that may release hazardous emissions when heated.
Do not use preprinted card stock manufactured with chemicals that may contaminate the printer.
Preprinting introduces semi-liquid and volatile components into the printer.
We recommend the use of grain long card stock.
Storing Print Media

Use the following guidelines for proper print media storage. These help avoid print media feeding problems
and uneven print quality:
For best results, store print media in an environment where the temperature is approximately 21 C
(70 F) and the relative humidity is 40%.
Store cartons of print media on a pallet or shelf, rather than directly on the floor.
If you store individual packages of print media out of the original carton, ensure that they rest on a flat
surface so the edges do not buckle or curl.

Selecting an Output Location

The printer has two output locations; the output tray (face down) and the rear door (face up).
To use the output tray, ensure that the rear door is closed. To use the rear door, open it.
NOTE: If paper coming out of the output tray has problems, such as excessive curl, try printing to the
rear door.
NOTE: To avoid paper jams, do not open or close the rear door while the printer is printing.
Printing to the Output Tray (Face down)

The output tray collects printed paper face-down, in the correct order. The tray should be used for most print
jobs.
If necessary, expand the paper output extension to keep the print media from falling off the output tray.
Printing to the Rear Door (Face up)

Using the rear door, the paper comes out of the printer face up.
Printing from the MPF to the rear door provides a straight paper path. Using the rear door might improve
the output quality with special materials.
To use the rear door:
Open the rear door by pulling it.
CAUTION: The fuser area inside of the rear door of your printer becomes very hot when in
use. Take care when you access this area.
Loading Print Media in the Paper Tray
You can load approximately 250 sheets of plain paper in the tray 1 or the optional tray 2. If you purchased
the optional tray 2, see "Installing an Optional Tray 2" for installing instructions. For faxing, you can use A4,
letter or legal paper only. For copying or printing, you can use many different types and sizes of paper; see
"Identifying Print Media Sources and Specifications".
Follow these instructions to load print media into the tray 1 or optional tray 2. These trays are loaded the
same way.
1. Pull open the paper tray and load paper with the print side face down.
You can load letterhead paper with the design side face down. The top edge of the sheet with the logo
should be placed at the front side of the tray.
For details about loading paper in the paper tray, see "Loading Paper".
NOTE: If you experience problems with paper feed, place the paper in the MPF.
NOTE: You can load previously printed paper. The printed side should be facing up with an uncurled
edge at the front. If you experience problems with paper feed, turn the paper around. Note that the
print quality is not guaranteed.
Using the MPF (Multi purpose feeder)

Use the MPF to print transparencies, labels, envelopes or postcards in addition to making quick runs of paper
types or sizes that are not currently loaded in the paper tray.
Postcards, 3.5 by 5.83 in. (index) cards and other custom-sized materials can be printed with this printer.
The minimum size is 3.0 by 5.0 in. (76 by 127 mm) and the maximum size is 8.5 by 14 in. (216 by 356
mm).
Acceptable print materials are plain paper with sizes ranging from 3.0 by 5.0 in. (76 by 127 mm) to Legal,
8.5 by 14 in. (216 by 356 mm), the largest size acceptable, and weighing between 16 lb and 43 lb.
NOTE: Always load only the print materials specified in the Specifications on "Paper Specifications" to
avoid paper jams and print quality problems.
NOTE: Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes and labels before loading them into the MPF.
To use the MPF:
1. Open the MPF and unfold the paper support extension, as shown.
2. If you are using paper, flex or fan the edge of the paper stack to separate the pages before loading.
For transparencies, hold them by the edges and avoid touching the print side. Oils from your fingers
can cause print quality problems.
3. Load the print material with the side to be printed on facing up.
3.
Depending on the paper type you are using, keep the following loading method:
Envelopes: load them with the flap side down and with the stamp area on the top left side.
Transparencies: load them with the print side up and the top with the adhesive strip entering the
printer first.
Labels: load them with the print size up and the top short edge entering the printer first.
Preprinted paper: load with the design face up, top edge toward the printer.
Card stock: load them with the print side up and the short edge entering the printer first.
Pre printed paper: the printed side should be facing down with an uncurled edge toward the
printer.
4. Squeeze the width guide and adjust it to the width of the print material. Do not force too much, or the
paper will be bent, which will result in a paper jam or skew.
5. After loading paper, set the paper type and size for the MPF. See "Setting the Paper Type" for copying
and faxing or "Paper Tab" for Computer printing.
5.
NOTE: The settings made from the printer driver override the settings on the operator panel.
CAUTION: Ensure that to open the rear door when you print on transparencies. If not, they
may tear while exiting the machine.
6. After printing, fold away the paper support extension and close the MPF.
Tips on using the MPF

Load only one size of print material at a time in the MPF.
To prevent paper jams, do not add paper when there is still paper in the MPF. This also applies to other
types of print materials.
Print materials should be loaded face up with the top edge going into the MPF first and be placed in the
center of the tray.
Always load only the print materials specified in "Print Media Guidelines" to avoid paper jams and print
quality problems.
Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading them into the MPF.
When you print on 3 by 5 in. (76 by 127 mm) sized media on the MPF, open the rear door for a
straight paper path to avoid paper jams.
Ensure that to open the rear door when you print on transparencies. If not, they may tear while exiting
the machine.

Tray Behavior
Tray Linking
Tray linking enables the automatic linking feature for trays when you load the same size and type of print
media in multiple sources. The printer automatically links the trays; when one tray is not available for paper
empty or mismatch, the printer will use the next available linked tray to feed print media for the printing.
For example, if you have the same size and type of print media loaded in tray 2, the printer selects print
media from tray 2 until it becomes empty, and then the printer automatically feeds print media from the
next linked tray.
By linking all trays (standard and optional), you effectively create a single source with a capacity of up to
550 sheets.
Make sure you load the same size and type of print media in each tray in order to link the trays. Set the
paper size and type for each tray.
To disable tray linking you can either choose unique paper size/type for each tray or using operator panel to
disable tray linking.
NOTE: You can use this feature in print, copy, and fax job.
NOTE: Do not open the tray 1, while the machine is printing with tray 2. Because paper jam might
occur.

).
This setting is used to determine whether the printer can substitute with another paper size when the
requested paper size is not available in any of the input trays. The Printer will substitute A4/Letter,
A5/Statement, B5/ISO B5, and Folio/Oficio. For example if A4 is requested paper size and there is no A4
paper in any of the input source then the printer will print on Letter size paper, if available.
Substitute size set to Off means no substitution is allowed for the requested paper size. This option is not
applied for received fax printing.
NOTE: You can use this feature in print and copy job.
MPF
MPF can be configured to behave in Tray Mode or in Bypass Mode by setting the Configure MPF menu in
the operator panel.
Bypass Mode
In this mode the printer pulls the paper from MPF first unless it is closed or empty. MPF gets the highest
priority and pulls whatever media present in the MPF.
NOTE: You can use this feature in print and copy job.
Tray Mode
In this mode the MPF is treated as another paper tray. Instead of treating MPF as first preference paper
source, printer pulls paper from the tray that matches the size and type. The first preference goes to the

What is an Overlay?
An overlay is text and/or images stored in the computer hard disk drive (HDD) as a special file format that
can be printed on any document. Overlays are often used to take the place of preprinted forms and
letterhead paper. Rather than using preprinted letterhead, you can create an overlay containing the exact
same information that is currently on your letterhead. To print a letter with your company's letterhead, you
do not need to load preprinted letterhead paper in the printer. You need only tell the printer to print the
letterhead overlay on your document.

Scanning Overview
Scanning with your machine lets you turn pictures and text into digital files that can be stored on your
computer. Then you can fax or email the files, upload them to your website, or use them to create projects
that you can print.
The scanning methods are scan to email, scan to computer (local and network), and scan to USB.
Dell ScanCenter
Use your Dell 2335dn MFP to convert pictures and text into editable images on your computer. After you
install the software from the DRIVERS AND UTILITIES CD , you can start scanning images using Dell
ScanCenter on your computer, or through the network using Dell Dell Scan Manager, which enables you to
scan a document on your printer as a JPEG, TIFF or PDF and save it to a network-connected computer. Or,
you can send the scanned image as an e-mail attachment directly from the printer.
NOTE: PaperPort is the scanning program provided with your printer.
The resolution setting to use when you scan an item using PaperPort depends on the item type and how you
plan to use the image or document after you scan it to your computer. For best results, use these
recommended settings.
Item Type
Documents
Documents of poor quality or that
contain small text
Resolution
300 dpi black-and-white or 200 dpi
grayscale or color
400 dpi black-and-white or 300 dpi
grayscale
Photographs and pictures
100-200 dpi color or 200 dpi grayscale
Images for an inkjet printer
150 dpi to 300 dpi
Images for a high-resolution printer
300 dpi to 600 dpi
Scanning above these recommended resolutions may exceed the capabilities of the application. If you
require a resolution above those recommended in the above table, you should reduce the size of the image
by previewing (or pre-scan) and cropping before scanning the image.
NOTE: You can use PaperPort's built-in OCR software to copy text from scanned documents so that
you can use and edit the text in any text editing, word processing, or spreadsheet program. The OCR
process requires textual images scanned at 150 to 600 dpi and 300 dpi or 600 dpi is recommended for
graphics.
NOTE: The first time you use PaperPort you must open PaperPort on your computer before you start
scanning in order for the scanned document to be stored in your computer.
NOTE: If you prefer to use another application, such as Adobe PhotoShop , you must assign the
application to the printer by selecting it from the list of available applications. Please refer to
"Scanning Using Dell Scan Manager" .
Dell ScanCenter is a PaperPort application that enables you to scan items and send them directly to
PaperPort or other programs on your computer without first running PaperPort. Dell ScanCenter runs as a
separate application from the Windows Start Menu and displays the Dell ScanCenter bar. For more
information about using Dell ScanCenter, refer to PaperPort's Help menu.
Icons on the Dell ScanCenter bar represent the programs that are limited to PaperPort and to Dell
ScanCenter. To scan and send an item to a program, click the program icon and then scan the item. Dell
ScanCenter automatically starts the selected program when the scan is complete.

Locally-shared Printer
You can connect the printer directly to a selected computer, which is called the "host computer" on the
network. The printer can then be shared by other users on the network through a Windows 2000, XP, Server
2003, Server 2008, Vista, 7 or Server 2008 R2 network printer connection.
Wired Network-connected Printer

Your printer has a built-in network interface. For details, see "Connecting the printer to the Network" .
Printing Across a Network

Whether the printer is locally connected or network-connected, you need to install the Dell 2335dn MFP
software on each computer that prints documents using the printer.
Setting Up the Locally Shared Printer

You can connect the printer directly to a selected computer, which is called the "host computer," on the
network. Your printer can be shared by other users on the network through a Windows 2000, XP, Server
2003, Server 2008, or Vista network printer connection.

To check that the printer was successfully shared:

Make sure the printer object in the Printers folder shows it is shared. For example, in Windows 2000,
a hand is shown underneath the printer icon.
Browse My Network Places or Network Neighborhood . Find the host name of the server, and look
for the shared name you assigned to the printer.
Now that the printer is shared, you can install the printer on network clients using the point and print
method or the Peer-to-Peer method.
Install the Shared Printer on Client Computers
Point and Print

This method is the best use of system resources. The print server handles driver modifications and print job
processing. This lets network clients return to their programs much faster.
If you use the Point and Print method, a subset of driver information is copied from the print server to the
client computer. This is just enough information to send a print job to the printer.
1. Right-click the Start button and point to Explore .
2. Double-click My Network Places or Network Neighborhood .
3. Double-click the host name of the printer server computer.
4. Right-click the shared printer name, and then click Install or Connect .
Wait for the driver information to copy from the print server computer to the client computer, and for
a new printer object to be added to the Printers folder. The time this takes varies, based on network
traffic and other factors.
5. Close My Network Places or Network Neighborhood .
6. Print a test page to verify print installation.
When a test page prints successfully, printer installation is complete. See "To print a test page:" .
Peer-to-Peer
If you use the Peer-to-Peer method, the printer driver is fully installed on each client computer. Network
clients retain control of driver modifications. The client computer handles the print job processing.

the code, see "Available Fax Defaults Options" .
Receiving Faxes Using the DRPD Mode
"Distinctive Ring" is a telephone company service which enables a user to use a single telephone line to
answer several different telephone numbers. The particular number someone uses to call you on is identified
by different ringing patterns, available in combinations of long and short ringing sounds.
Using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection feature, your fax machine can "learn" the ring pattern you
designate to be answered by the FAX machine. This ringing pattern may be recognized and answered as a
FAX call, and all other ringing patterns will be forwarded to the extension telephone or answering machine
plugged into the extension telephone socket (
) on the back of your printer. You can easily suspend or
change Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection at any time.
Before using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection option, Distinctive Ring service must be installed on your
telephone line by the telephone company. To set up Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection, you may need
another telephone line at your location, dial your FAX number from another line.

8. Press Cancel (
When the DRPD feature is set up, the DRPD option is available in the Receive Mode menu. To receive faxes
in the DRPD mode, you need to set the menu to DRPD; see "Available Fax Defaults Options" .
NOTE: DRPD must be set up again if you re-assign your fax number, or connect the
printer to another telephone line.
NOTE: After DRPD has been set up, call your fax number again to verify that the
printer answers with a fax tone. Then call a different number assigned to that same
line to ensure the call is forwarded to the extension telephone or answering machine
plugged into the extension telephone socket (
) on the back of the printer.
Receiving Faxes in the Memory

Since your printer is a multi-tasking device, it can receive faxes while performing other tasks. If you receive
a fax while you are copying, printing, or run out of paper or toner , your printer stores incoming faxes in the
memory. As soon as you finish copying, printing, or resupply the consumables, the printer automatically
prints the fax.

Getting Started
The supplied DRIVERS AND UTILITIES CD provides you with Dell's MFP driver package for using your printer
with a Linux computer.
Dell's MFP driver package contains printer and scanner drivers, providing the ability to print documents and
scan images. The package also delivers powerful applications for configuring your printer and further
processing of the scanned documents.
After the driver is installed on your Linux system, the driver package enables you to monitor a number of
MFP devices via USB port. The acquired documents can then be edited, printed on the same local MFP or
network printers, sent by e-mail, uploaded to an FTP site, or transferred to an external OCR system.
The MFP driver package is supplied with a smart and flexible installation program. You do not need to search
for additional components that might be necessary for the MFP software: all required packages will be
carried onto your system and installed automatically; this is possible on a wide set of the most popular Linux
clones.

Using the Unified Driver Configurator

Unified Driver Configurator is a tool primarily intended for configuring MFP devices. Since an MFP device
combines the printer and scanner, the Unified Driver Configurator provides options logically grouped for
printer and scanner functions. There is also a special MFP port option responsible for the regulation of access
to an MFP printer and scanner via a single I/O channel.
After installing the MFP driver, the Unified Driver Configurator icon will automatically be created on your
desktop.
Opening the Unified Driver Configurator

1.
1. Double-click Unified Driver Configurator on the desktop.
You can also click the Startup Menu icon and select Dell MFP and then Unified Driver Configurator.
2. Press each button on the Modules pane to switch to the corresponding configuration window.
You can use the onscreen help by clicking Help.

MFP Ports Configuration

In this window, you can view the list of available MFP ports, check the status of each port and release a port
that is stalled in busy state when its owner is terminated for any reason.
Refresh: Renews the available ports list.

Release port: Releases the selected port.
Sharing Ports Between Printers and Scanners

Your printer may be connected to a host computer via the parallel port or USB port. Since the MFP device
contains more than one device (printer and scanner), it is necessary to organize proper access of "consumer"
applications to these devices via the single I/O port.
The Dell MFP driver package provides an appropriate port sharing mechanism that is used by Dell printer and
scanner drivers. The drivers address their devices via so-called MFP ports. The current status of any MFP port
can be viewed via the MFP Ports Configuration. The port sharing prevents you from accessing one functional
block of the MFP device, while another block is in use.
When you install a new MFP printer onto your system, it is strongly recommended you do this with the
assistance of an Unified Driver Configurator. In this case you will be asked to choose I/O port for the new
device. This choice will provide the most suitable configuration for MFP's functionality. For MFP scanners I/O
ports are being chosen by scanner drivers automatically, so proper settings are applied by default.
Configuring Printer Properties

Using the properties window provided by the Printers configuration, you can change the various properties
for your machine as a printer.
1. Open the Unified Driver Configurator.
If necessary, switch to Printers configuration.

2. Select your printer on the available printers list and click Properties.
3. The Printer Properties window opens.
The following five tabs display at the top of the window:

General: allows you to change the printer location and name. The name entered in this tab

Connection: allows you to view or select another port. If you change the printer port from USB
to parallel or vice versa while in use, you must re-configure the printer port in this tab.
Driver: allows you to view or select another printer driver. By clicking Options, you can set the
default device options.
Jobs: shows the list of print jobs. Click Cancel Job to cancel the selected job and select the
Show completed jobs check box to see previous jobs on the job list.
Classes: shows the class that your printer is in. Click Add to Class to add your printer to a
specific class or click Remove from Class to remove the printer from the selected class.
4. Click OK to apply the changes and close the Printer Properties Window.

To maintain the print quality, follow the cleaning procedures below, each time the toner cartridge is replaced
or if print quality problems occur.
NOTE: Do not touch the transfer roller located under the toner cartridge when cleaning inside the
printer. Oil from your fingers may cause print quality problems.
CAUTION: Cleaning solvents that contain alcohol or other strong substances may discolor
or crack the printer cabinet.
Cleaning the Exterior

Clean the printer cabinet with a soft, damp, lint-free cloth. Do not let water drip onto the printer or inside
the printer.
Cleaning the Interior

Paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate inside the printer and cause print quality problems, such as
smearing or toner specks. Clean inside the printer to prevent these problems.
1. Power the printer off and unplug the power cord. Allow a reasonable amount of time for the printer to
cool down.
2. Open the front cover and pull the toner cartridge straight out. Set it on a clean flat surface.
CAUTION: To prevent damage, do not expose the toner cartridge to light for more
than a few minutes.
CAUTION: Do not touch the green underside of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on
the cartridge to avoid touching this area.
3. With a dry and lint-free cloth, wipe away any dust and spilled toner from the toner cartridge area and
the toner cartridge cavity.
3.
CAUTION: Do not touch the transfer roller inside the printer. Oil from your fingers
may cause print quality problems.
4. Locate the long strip of glass Laser Scanning Unit (LSU) inside the top of the cartridge compartment,
and gently swab the glass to see if dirt turns the white cotton black.
4.
5. Reinsert the toner cartridge and close the front cover.

6. Plug in the power cord and power the printer on.
Cleaning the scanner

Keeping the scanner and DADF glass clean ensure the highest quality copies, scans, and sent faxes. Dell
recommends cleaning the scanner at the start of each day and during the day, as needed.
NOTE: If there are lines present on copied or faxed documents, check your scanner and DADF glass
for any particles.
1. Slightly dampen a soft lint-free cloth or paper towel with water.
2. Open the document cover.
3. Wipe the surface of the document glass and DADF glass until it is clean and dry.
3.

5. Close the document cover.
Maintaining the Toner Cartridge

Storing the Toner Cartridge
Store the toner cartridge in the original packaging until you are ready to install it.
Do not store the toner cartridge in:

Temperatures greater than 40 C (104 F)
An environment with extreme changes in humidity or temperature
Direct sunlight
Dusty places
A car for a long period of time
An environment where corrosive gases are present

An environment with salty air
Redistributing Toner
When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life, white streaks or light print occurs. The LCD displays the
warning message, Toner Low. Thoroughly shake the cartridge from side-to-side 5 or 6 times to distribute
the toner evenly inside the cartridge and temporarily improve print quality.
This is not intended to be a long term method of correction, but meant to assist your printing needs until you
obtain a new cartridge assembly.
2. Pull the toner cartridge out.
3.
3. Thoroughly shake the cartridge from side-to-side 5 or 6 times to distribute the toner evenly inside the
cartridge.
4. Holding the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert the cartridge into the opening in the
printer.
5. Tabs on the sides of the cartridge and corresponding grooves within the printer will guide the cartridge
into the correct position until it locks into place completely.
6. Close the front cover. Ensure that the cover is surely closed.
Replacing the Toner Cartridge

When the toner eventually runs out, only blank pages print when a print job or copy job are sent. The LCD
displays the warning message, Toner Almost Empty Replace Toner. In that case the incoming faxes are
only saved in the memory and not printed. At this stage, the toner cartridge needs to be replaced.
Order an extra toner cartridge so you will have it on hand when the current cartridge no longer prints
satisfactorily. See "Ordering Supplies" to order toner cartridges.
CAUTION: For best results, use Dell toner cartridge. Print quality and printer reliability are
not guaranteed if you do not use Dell supplies.
To replace the toner cartridge:
2. Pull the toner cartridge out.
3. Remove the new toner cartridge from its bag.

4. Remove the packing tape and thoroughly shake the cartridge from side-to-side to distribute the toner.
Save the box and the cover for shipping.

5. Holding the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert the cartridge into the opening in the
printer.
6. Tabs on the sides of the cartridge and corresponding grooves within the printer will guide the cartridge
into the correct position until it locks into place completely.
7. Close the front cover. Ensure that the cover is surely closed.
Cleaning the Drum

If there are streaks or spots on your print, the Organic Photo Conductor (OPC) drum of the toner cartridge
may require cleaning.

output tray.
Using damp paper

can cause vapor during
printing.
This is not a problem. Just keep

printing.
Printing Quality Problems

The inside of the printer may be dirty or improper paper loading may reduce the print quality. See the table
below to clear the problem.
Condition
Suggested solutions
Light or faded print
If a vertical white streak or faded area appears on the

page:
The toner supply is low. You may be able to
temporarily extend the toner cartridge life. See
"Redistributing Toner". If this does not improve the
print quality, install a new toner cartridge.
The paper may not meet paper specifications;
for example, the paper is too moist or too rough. See
"Paper Specifications".
A combination of faded or smeared defects may
indicate that the toner cartridge needs cleaning. See
"Cleaning the Interior".
The surface of the LSU part inside the printer
may be dirty. Clean the LSU (see "Cleaning the
Interior").
Toner specks
Dropouts
The paper may not meet specifications; for

example, the paper is too moist or too rough. See
The transfer roller may be dirty. Clean the
inside of your printer. See "Cleaning the Interior".
The paper path may need cleaning. See
"Cleaning the Drum".
If faded areas, generally rounded, occur randomly on

the page:
A single sheet of paper may be defective. Try

reprinting the job.
The moisture content of the paper is uneven or
the paper has moist spots on its surface. Try a
different brand of paper. See "Paper Specifications".
The paper lot is bad. The manufacturing process
can cause some areas to reject toner. Try a different
kind or brand of paper.
The toner cartridge may be defective. "Vertical
repetitive defects" on the next page.
If these steps do not correct the problems,
contact a service representative.
White Spots
White spots appears on the page:

The paper is too rough and a lot of dirt from a
paper falls to the inner devices within the machine, so
the transfer roller may be dirty. Clean the inside of
your machine. Contact a service representative.
The paper path may need cleaning. Contact a
service representative.
Vertical lines
Gray background
If black vertical streaks appear on the page, the

drum inside the toner cartridge has probably been
scratched. Install a new toner cartridge. See
"Replacing the Toner Cartridge".
If white vertical streaks appear on the page, the
surface of the LSU part inside the printer may be
dirty. Clean the LSU (see "Cleaning the Interior").
If the amount of background shading becomes

unacceptable:
Change to lighter weight pages. See "Paper
Specifications".
Check the printer's environment; very dry (low
humidity) or high humidity (higher than 80% RH)
conditions can increase the amount of background
shading.
Remove the old toner cartridge and install a
new one. See "Replacing the Toner Cartridge".
Toner smear
Clean the inside of the printer. See "Cleaning

the Interior".
Check the paper type and quality. See "Paper
Specifications".
Remove the toner cartridge and install a new
one. See "Replacing the Toner Cartridge".
Vertical repetitive
defects
If marks repeatedly appear on the printed side of the

page at even intervals:
The toner cartridge may be damaged. If a
repetitive mark occurs on the page, print a cleaning
sheet several times to clean the cartridge; see
"Cleaning the Drum". After the printout, if you still
have the same problems, install a new toner
cartridge. See "Replacing the Toner Cartridge".
Parts of the printer may have toner on them. If
the defects occur on the back of the page, the
problem will likely correct itself after a few more
pages.
The fusing assembly may be damaged. Contact
a service representative.
Background scatter
Background scatter results from bits of toner

distributed on the printed page.
The paper may be too damp. Try printing with a
different batch of paper. Do not open packages of
paper until necessary so that the paper does not
absorb too much moisture.
If background scatter occurs on an envelope,
change the printing layout to avoid printing over
areas that have overlapping seams on the reverse
side. Printing on seams can cause problems.
If background scatter covers the entire surface
area of a printed page, adjust the print resolution
through your software application or the printer
properties.
Misformed characters
If characters are improperly formed and

produce hollow images, the paper stock may be too
slick. Try a different paper. See "Paper
Specifications".
If characters are improperly formed and
produce a wavy effect, the scanner unit may need
service. For service, contact a service representative.
Page skew
Ensure that the paper is loaded properly.

type of transparency. Because of the composition of
the transparency, some character voids are normal.
You may be printing on the wrong surface of
the paper. Turn over the stack of paper in the paper
tray.
The paper may not meet paper specifications.
Horizontal stripes
If horizontally aligned black streaks or smears

appear:

Check if the printer driver is installed in your system.

Open MFP configurator and switch to the Printers tab in
Printers configuration window to look at the list of available
printers. Ensure that your printer is displayed on the list. If
not, please, invoke Add new printer wizard to set up your
device.
Check if the printer is started. Open Printers
configuration and select your printer on the printers list.
Look at the description in the Selected printer pane. If its
status contains "(stopped)" string, please, press the Start
button. After that normal operation of the printer should be
restored. The "stopped" status might be activated when
some problems in printing occurred. For instance, this
could be an attempt to print document when MFP port is
claimed by a scanning application.
Check if the MFP port is not busy. Since functional
components of MFP (printer and scanner) share the same
I/O interface (MFP port), the situation of simultaneous
access of different "consumer" application to the same MFP
port is possible. To avoid possible conflicts, only one of
them at a time is allowed to gain control over the device.
The other "consumer" will encounter "device busy"
response. You should open MFP ports configuration and
select the port assigned to your printer. In the Selected
port pane you can see if the port is occupied by some other
application. If this is the case, you should wait for
completion of the current job or should press Release port
button, if you are sure that the present owner is not
functioning properly.
Check if your application has special print option
such as "-oraw". If "-oraw" is specified in the command line
parameter then remove it to print properly. For Gimp frontend, select "print"
"Setup printer" and edit command
line parameter in the command item.

To identify the source of the problem, you should
open MFP ports configuration and select the port assigned
to your scanner. MFP port's symbol /dev/mfp0 corresponds
to LP:0 designation displayed in the scanners' options,
/dev/mfp1 relates to LP:1 and so on. USB ports start at
/dev/mfp4, so scanner on USB:0 relates to /dev/mfp4
respectively and so forth sequentially. In the Selected port
pane you can see if the port is occupied by some other
application. If this is the case, you should wait for
completion of the current job or should press Release port
button, if you are sure that the present port's owner is not
functioning properly.

Since both Linux Printer Package and MFP driver

make a symbolic link to "lpr" printing command, which is
commonly used on Unix clones, it is not recommended to
use both package on the same machine.
Can't scan via Gimp

Front-end.
Check if Gimp Front-end has "Xsane:Device dialog."

plug-in for Gimp on the your computer. You can find Xsane
plug-in package for Gimp on Linux distribution CD or Gimp
home page. For the detail information, refer to the Help for
Linux distribution CD or Gimp Front-end application.
If you wish to use other kind of scan application,
refer to the Help for application.
I encounter error
"Unable to open MFP port
device file!" when printing
a document.
Avoid changing print job parameters (via SLPR utility, for

example) while a print job is in progress. Known versions of
CUPS server break the print job whenever print options are
changed and then try to restart the job from the beginning.
Since Linux MFP driver locks MFP port while printing, the abrupt
termination of the driver keeps the port locked and therefore
unavailable for subsequent print jobs. If this situation occurred,
try to release the MFP port.

Overview
Your printer accepts a variety of print materials, such as cut-sheet paper (including up to 100 percent
recycled fiber content paper), envelopes, labels, transparencies and custom-size paper. Properties, such as
weight, composition, grain and moisture content, are important factors affecting the printer's performance
and the output quality. Paper that does not meet the guidelines outlined in this User's Guide can cause the
following problems:
Poor print quality
Increased paper jams
Premature wear on the printer
NOTE: Some paper may meet all of the guidelines in this guide and still not produce satisfactory
results. This may be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and humidity levels,
or other variables over which Dell has no control.
NOTE: Before purchasing large quantities of paper, insure the paper meets the requirements specified
in this User's Guide.
CAUTION: Using paper that does not meet these specifications may cause problems,
requiring repairs. These repairs are not covered by the Dell warranty or service
agreements.

The printer supports a wide range of media sizes.

Capacity may vary depending on print materials's weight and thickness, and environmental
conditions.
NOTE: You may experience jams when using print materials with a length of less than 127 mm (5
inches). For optimum performance, ensure that you are storing and handling the paper correctly.
Please refer to "Printer and Paper Storage Environment".
NOTE: You can use A4, Letter, Folio, Oficio, Legal-sized paper for duplex printing.
Guidelines for Using Paper

For the best result, use conventional 75 g/m2 (20 lb) paper. Ensure that the paper is of good quality, and
free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles, voids, and curled or bent edges.
If you are unsure of what type of paper you are loading, such as bond or recycled paper, check the label on
the package.

Ragged edges
Use good quality

paper.
NOTE: Do not use letterhead paper printed with low-temperature inks, such as those used in some
types of thermography.
NOTE: Do not use raised or embossed letterhead.
NOTE: The printer uses heat and pressure to fuse toner to the paper. Insure that any colored paper or
preprinted forms use inks that are compatible with this fusing temperature (180 C or 356 F for 0.1
second).

Printer and Paper Storage Environment

Paper storage environmental conditions directly affect the feed operation.
Ideally, the printer and paper storage environment should be at or near room temperature, and not too dry
or humid. Remember that paper is hygroscopic; it absorbs and loses moisture rapidly.
Heat works with humidity to damage paper. Heat causes the moisture in paper to evaporate, while cold
causes it to condense on the sheets. Heating systems and air conditioners remove most of the humidity from
a room. As paper is opened and used, it loses moisture, causing streaks and smudging. Humid weather or
water coolers can cause the humidity to increase in a room. As paper is opened and used it absorbs any
excess moisture, causing light print and dropouts. Also, as paper loses and gains moisture it can become
distorted. This can cause paper jams.
Care should be taken not to purchase more paper than can be used in a short time (about 3 months). Paper
stored for long periods may experience heat and moisture extremes, which can cause damage. Planning is
important to prevent damage to large supplies of paper.
Unopened paper in sealed reams can remain stable for several months before use. Opened packages of
paper have more potential for environment damage, especially if they are not wrapped with a moisture-proof
barrier.
The paper storage environment should be properly maintained to ensure optimum performance. The
required condition is 20 C to 24 C (68 F to 75 F), with a relative humidity of 4 percent to 55percent. The
following guidelines should be considered when evaluating the paper's storage environment:
Paper should be stored at or near room temperature.
The air should not be too dry or too humid.
The best way to store an opened ream of paper is to rewrap it tightly in its moisture-proof wrapping. If
the printer environment is subject to extremes, unwrap only the amount of paper to be used during the
day's operation to prevent unwanted moisture changes.
