Media guidelines
Paper characteristics
The following paper characteristics affect print quality and reliability. Consider these characteristics when
evaluating new paper stock.
• Weight—The printer can automatically feed paper weights from 60 to 176 g/m2 (16 to 47 lb bond) grain
long. Paper lighter than 75 g/m2 (20 lb) might not be stiff enough to feed properly, causing jams. For best
performance, use 80 g/m 2 (21 lb bond) grain long paper. For paper smaller than 182 x 257 mm (7.2 x 10.1
in.), we recommend 90 g/m 2 or heavier paper.
• Curl—Curl is the tendency for paper to curl at its edges. Excessive curl can cause paper feeding
problems. Curl can occur after the paper passes through the printer, where it is exposed to high
temperatures. Storing paper unwrapped in hot, humid, cold, or dry conditions, even in the trays, can
contribute to paper curling prior to printing and can cause feeding problems.
• Smoothness—Paper smoothness directly affects print quality. If paper is too rough, toner cannot fuse to it
properly. If paper is too smooth, it can cause paper feeding or print quality issues. Always use paper
between 100 and 300 Sheffield points; however, smoothness between 150 and 200 Sheffield points
produces the best print quality.
• Moisture content—The amount of moisture in paper affects both print quality and the ability of the printer
to feed the paper correctly. Leave paper in its original wrapper until it is time to use it. This limits the
exposure of paper to moisture changes that can degrade its performance. Condition paper before printing
by storing it in its original wrapper in the same environment as the printer for 24 to 48 hours before printing.
Extend the time several days if the storage or transportation environment is very different from the printer
environment. Thick paper may also require a longer conditioning period.
• Grain direction—Grain refers to the alignment of the paper fibers in a sheet of paper. Grain is either grain
long, running the length of the paper, or grain short, running the width of the paper. For 60 to 176 g/m 2 (16
to 47 lb bond) paper, use grain long fibers.
• Fiber content—Most high-quality xerographic paper is made from 100% chemically treated 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 possesses characteristics that can
negatively affect paper handling.
Unacceptable paper
The following paper types are not recommended for use with the printer:
Selecting paper
Using appropriate paper prevents jams and helps ensure trouble-free printing. To help avoid jams and poor print
quality:
Preprinted papers such as letterhead must be able to withstand temperatures up to 200°C (392°F) without
melting or releasing hazardous emissions.
Storing paper
Use these paper storage guidelines to help avoid jams and uneven print quality:
• For best results, store paper where the temperature is 21°C (70°F) and the relative humidity is 40%. Most
label manufacturers recommend printing in a temperature range of 18 to 24°C (65 to 75°F) with relative
humidity between 40 and 60%.
• Store paper in cartons when possible, on a pallet or shelf, rather than on the floor.
• Store individual packages on a flat surface.
• Do not store anything on top of individual paper packages.
Recycled paper, paper of lower weight (<60 g/m2 [16 lb bond]) and/or lower caliper (<3.8 mils [0.1 mm]), and
paper that is cut grain-short for portrait (or short-edge) fed printers may have lower bending resistance than is
required for reliable paper feeding. Before using these types of paper for laser (electrophotographic) printing,
consult your paper supplier. Remember that these are general guidelines only and that paper meeting these
guidelines may still cause paper feeding problems in any laser printer (for example, if the paper curls
excessively under normal printing conditions).

2. Diagnostics information
Start
CAUTION: Unplug power from the printer before connecting or disconnecting any cable,
assembly, or electronic card. This is a precaution for personal safety and to prevent damage to the
printer.
Use the service error code, user status message, user error message, symptom table, service checks, and
diagnostic aids in this chapter to determine the corrective action necessary to repair a malfunctioning printer.
They will lead you to solutions or service checks, including use of various tests.
Symptom tables
If your machine completes the “Power–On Self Test (POST) sequence” on page 2-1 without an error and you
have a symptom, then go to “Service error codes” on page 2-26. Locate your symptom, and take the
appropriate action.
If a service error code appears while you are working on the machine, then go to “Service error codes” on
page 2-26, and take the indicated action for that error.
Service error codes are indicated by a three-digit error code followed by a period and additional numbers in the
format XXX.YY. In most cases, five digits are shown.
• User status messages provide the user with information on the current status of the printer. Ready displays
on the first line of the display unless invoked, and then Power Saver displays. If a user status message is
displayed, then go to “Service error codes” on page 2-26.
• User attendance messages are indicated by a two- or three-digit error code that provides the user with
information that explains a problem with a print cartridge, paper jam, option, port, and so on. If a user error
message displays, then go to “User attendance messages” on page 2-13 and “Paper jam error codes
(200-series)” on page 2-20.

Fuser This problem is most likely due to a worn backup roll. It causes the printer to run hotter than
required for the media being printed. Excessive heat can cause media treeing problems,
poor stacking, or curl.
Print the menu sheet found under Utilities.
Look at the media settings. Some, such as card stock or rough texture, may require a
higher fuser temperature, which leads to more of these problems (except stacking) in plain
paper.
• Change settings using the printer driver.
• Use the local printer setup utility (included on the CD) to change the NVRAM
settings.
Try a different ream of paper. Moist media has a higher tendency to crease (treeing) and
curl.

Print Tests
This setting tests the printer’s ability to generate printed output from each of its installed input sources and to
test the printer’s current print quality.
Input sources
The purpose of the diagnostic Print Tests is to verify that the printer can print on media from each of the
installed input options. The contents of the Print Test Page varies depending on the media installed in the
selected input source.
Check each Test Page from each source to assist in print quality and paper feed problems.
The purpose of this diagnostic function is to allow printing of the print quality test pages with the toner cartridge
lockout function disabled. The print quality pages consist of four pages. Page one contains a mixture of
graphics and text. Page two is gray with two one-inch black squares located on the bottom right. Page three is
a solid black page, and page four is blank. If duplex is turned on, the pages are duplexed. The Print Quality
Test pages are printed in English and must always be printed on letter, legal, or A4 paper.
To run the Print Quality Test Pages, touch beside Printing Quality Test Pages from PRINT TESTS. The
message Printing Quality Test Pages is displayed.
Note: The print quality test pages can also be printed from the Configuration menu (CONFIG MENU),
however, a cartridge must be installed with a machine class ID matching the machine class ID stored in
NVRAM. Additional diagnostic information may be printed on the pages when printing from DIAGNOSTICS.
The following is included in the DIAGNOSTICS version of the print quality pages:
Hardware Tests
• Panel Test
• Button Test
• DRAM Test
• USB HS Test Mode
Panel Test
This test automatically toggles each pixel of the touchscreen through every contrast level beginning with the
darkest and on to the brightest. This test continues until you press Stop .
Button Test
The Button Test verifies the operation of the buttons on the operator panel. When you select Button Test, a
diagram of the operator panel appears on the panel. When you press a button on the operator panel, the
corresponding touchscreen key is emphasized. Touch Back to cancel the test.
DRAM Test
The purpose of this test is to check the validity of DRAM memory, both standard and optional. The test writes
patterns of data to DRAM to verify that each bit in memory can be set and read correctly.
The test continues until all standard and optional DRAM is tested. Once the maximum pass count or fail count
is reached, the test is stopped, the power indicator is turned on solid, and the final results display.
Serial 1 Wrap
This test is used to the serial port option card.. It only apears if the card is installed in the PCI slot.
Duplex Tests
Note: Before you set the duplex top margin, be sure to set the registration. See “Registration (printer)” on
page 3-18.
The paper you choose to print the page on should be either Letter or A4.
The single test stops automatically when a single duplex sheet is printed, and the continuous test continues
until you press Stop .
Duplex Feed 1
This test feeds a blank sheet of paper to the duplex paper stop position 1. This test can be run using any of the
supported paper sizes.
Duplex Feed 2
This test feeds a blank sheet of paper to the duplex paper stop position 2. This test can be run using any of the
supported paper sizes.

Serial Number
The serial number can only be viewed and cannot be changed.
Model Name
Configuration ID
The two configuration IDs are used to communicate information about certain areas of the printer that cannot
be determined using hardware sensors. The configuration IDs are originally set at the factory when the printer
is manufactured, however, the servicer may need to reset Configuration ID 1 or Configuration ID 2 whenever
you replace the system board. The IDs consist of eight hexadecimal characters, including 0 through 9 and A
through F.
Note: When the printer detects a Configuration ID that is not defined or invalid, the following occurs:
• The default standard model Configuration ID is used instead.
• Configuration ID is the only function available in DIAGNOSTICS.
• Unless the menu is in DIAGNOSTICS, Check Config ID displays.

Note: If you make changes, touch Submit to make the change effective.
EP Defaults
This setting is used to restore each printer setting listed in EP SETUP to its factory default value. Sometimes
this is used to help correct print quality problems.
To restore EP Defaults:
The fuser temperature can be adjusted to: Normal, Lower, Lowest. The default is Normal.
Warm Up Time
You can change the amount of time the printer warms up before allowing pages to print by changing this
setting from 0 to 5. The factory sets the warm up at 0 or no warm up time. This time period lets the backup roll
heat up and helps reduce curl in some environments.
Transfer
The transfer can be adjusted to Low, Medium, or High. The default setting is Medium.
Print Contrast
The print contrast setting controls the developer voltage offset.
The print contrast can be adjusted to Low, Medium, or High. The default setting is Medium.
Charge Roll
The charge roll can be adjusted to Low, Medium, or High. The default setting is Medium.
Gap Adjust
The setting adjusts the minimum gap between sheets. Increasing this value may reduce curl of some printed
media and eliminate some output bin stacking problems. However, increasing this value also results in slower
overall performance, measured in pages per minute. The range of values is 0 to 255, and the default value is 0.
Reports
EVENT LOG
Display Log
The event log provides a history of printer errors. It contains the 12 most recent errors that have occurred on
the printer. The most recent error displays in position 1, and the oldest error displays in position 12 (if 12 errors
have occurred). If an error occurs after the log is full, the oldest error is discarded. Identical errors in
consecutive positions in the log are entered, so there may be repetitions. All 2xx and 9xx error messages are
stored in the event log.
Print Log
Additional diagnostic information is available when you print the event log from Diagnostics Menu rather than
Configuration Menu.
The printed event log can be faxed to Lexmark or your next level of support for verification or diagnosis.
Clear Log
Use Clear Log to remove the current information in the Event Log. This affects both the viewed log and the
printed log information.

Exit Diagnostics
Selecting EXIT DIAGNOSTICS exits the Diagnostics menu, and Resetting the Printer displays. The printer
performs a POR, and the printer returns to normal mode.
7. Print the Quick Test page again and check that the darkest line in the center graph is equal to zero. If it is,
then check to see if the left, top, and bottom margins are detected. If it is not, then repeat step 5.
Note: The alignment of the left margin positions the black plane to the right or left. The alignment of the right
margin does not alter the margins and should only be used to adjust the printhead.
Note: Skew is caused by a sheet being fed through the printer while misaligned. The entire image is rotated
relative to the sheet edges. However, a mechanically misaligned printhead causes the horizontal lines to appear
skewed, while the vertical lines remain parallel to the vertical edges. There are no adjustments for skew. Check
the pick roll (paper pick assembly) for wear, the paper path for obstructions, the fuser for proper setting, and the
tray paper guides for fit to the media.
1. Enter the Diagnostics Menu. See “Entering Diagnostics menu” on page 3-17.
2. Select PRINT TESTS.
3. Select Tray 1.
4. Select Single.
5. Fold the printed test page on the left side so that a few millimeters of grid lines wrap around the outside of
the fold. See photo below.
6. Fold a second vertical fold near the center so that the left side top edge aligns with the right side top edge.
7. If the grid lines of the right flap align below the corresponding lines on the left flap, then adjust the printhead
clockwise relative to the printer, and recheck. (See the left side of the figure below.) If the grid lines of the
left flap align below the corresponding lines of the right side, then adjust the printhead counterclockwise.
(See the right side of the figure below.)
8. After obtaining a properly adjusted image on the paper, tighten all three screws.
Note: The printhead must be aligned electronically. See “Printhead assembly electronic adjustment” on
page 3-38.

Paper jams
Avoiding jams
Most paper jams can be avoided by correctly loading paper and specialty media in the printer.
• Do not mix print media sizes, weights, or types in the same print media source.
• Push all trays in firmly after loading them.
Note: Make sure the media stack is below the maximum media fill indicators on the 250-sheet tray before
pushing the tray into the printer.
• Make sure paper guides are positioned before loading the paper or specialty media.
• Do not remove trays while a job is printing.
• Before loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together.
• Do not use envelopes that:
– Have excessive curl
– Are stuck together
– Are damaged in any way
– Contain windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossments
– Have metal clasps, string ties, or metal folding bars
– Have postage stamps attached
– Have any exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed position
• Use only recommended media. Refer to the Card Stock & Label Guide available on the Lexmark Web site
at www.lexmark.com for more information about which media provides optimum results for the current
printing environment.
The following illustration shows the areas of the MFP where jams occur. When paper jams occur, follw the
instructions in this section.

CAUTION: Hot surface. The inside of the printer may be hot. To reduce the risk of injury from a hot component,
allow the surface to cool before touching it.
3. If the paper is not visible, open the front door and remove the photoconductor kit and toner cartridge.
4. Remove the jam.
Touch Status/Supplies to identify the location of the jam. If the paper is exiting the MFP into the exit bin, pull the
paper out and touch Coninue.
CAUTION: Hot surface. The inside of the printer may be hot. To reduce the risk of injury from a hot component,
allow the surface to cool before touching it.
2. Locate the duplex release lever and pull it down to release the paper.
This jam error indicates single or multiple jams in the duplex are of the MFP. Perform the steps in the following
jam removal procedures:
2. Touch Continue.
7. Touch Continue.
If the media is visible from the front of the MFP, gently pull the media out of the multipurpose feeder.
If the media is not visible, perform the following steps to clear the jam:
1. Open the front door, and remove the photoconductor kit and toner cartridge.
2. Lift the flap at the front of the MFP, and remove any jams.
1. Lift the flatbed cover, and remove the jammed media from the ADF.
2. Touch Continue.
4. Repair information
• Keep the ESD-sensitive part in its original shipping container (a special “ESD bag”) until the
part is ready to be installed into the printer.
• Make the least-possible body movements to prevent an increase of static electricity from
clothing fibers, carpets, and furniture.
• Put the ESD wrist strap on your wrist. Connect the wrist band to the system ground point. This
discharges any static electricity in your body to the printer.
• Hold the ESD-sensitive part by its edge connector shroud (cover); do not touch its pins. If a
pluggable module is being removed, then use the correct tool.
• Do not place the ESD-sensitive part on the MFP cover or on a metal table; if the ESD-
sensitive part needs to be put down for any reason, then first put it into its special bag.
• Machine covers and metal tables are electrical grounds. They increase the risk of damage,
because they make a discharge path from your body through the ESD-sensitive part. (Large
metal objects can be discharge paths without being grounded.)
• Prevent ESD-sensitive parts from being accidentally touched by other personnel. Install
machine covers when the machine is not being worked on, and do not put unprotected ESD-
sensitive parts on a table.
• If possible, keep all ESD-sensitive parts in a grounded metal cabinet (case).
• Be extra careful in working with ESD-sensitive parts when cold-weather heating is used,
because low humidity increases static electricity.
Removal procedures
• Remove the toner cartridge and media tray before removing other printer parts. The toner cartridge should
be protected from light while out of the printer.
• We recommend disconnecting all external cables from the printer to prevent damage during service.
• Unless otherwise stated, reinstall the parts in reverse order of removal.
• When reinstalling a part held with several screws, start all screws before final tightening.
• Remove the paper tray and print cartridge before proceeding with a removal.

below may not match.
6. Preventive maintenance
This chapter describes procedures for printer preventive maintenance. Follow these recommendations to help
prevent problems and maintain optimum performance.
If any unsafe conditions exist, then find out how serious the hazard could be and if you can continue before you
correct the hazard.
• Damaged, missing, or altered parts, especially in the area of the On/Off switch and the power supply
• Damaged, missing, or altered covers, especially in the area of the top cover and the power supply cover
• Possible safety exposure from any non-Lexmark attachments
Lubrication specifications
FRUs are typically lubricated as needed from the factory. If not, then lubricate only when parts are replaced or
as needed, not on a scheduled basis. Use of lubricants other than those specified can cause premature failure.
Some unauthorized lubricants may chemically attack parts. Use P/N 99A0394 (Nyogel 744) to lubricate
appropriate areas. Lubricate gears that were lubricated in the original part.
