Tips for Successful Printing
Tips on Storing Print Media
Store your print media properly. For more information, see "Storing Print Media" on page 187.
Avoiding Paper Jams
NOTE:
It is recommended that you try a limited sample of any print media you are considering using with the printer before
purchasing large quantities.
By selecting appropriate print media and loading it properly, you can avoid paper jams. See the following instructions
on loading print media:
• "Loading Print Media in the Multipurpose Feeder (MPF)" on page 151
• "Loading Print Media in the Priority Sheet Inserter (PSI) (Dell C1760nw Color Printer only)" on page 159
• "Avoiding Jams" on page 201
If you experience a jam, see "Jam" on page 223 for instructions.
Sending a Job to Print
To support all of the printer features, use the printer driver. When you choose
from an application, a window
representing the printer driver opens. Select the appropriate settings for the specific job you are sending to print.
Print settings selected from the driver have precedence over the default menu settings selected from the operator
panel or
Tool Box
.
You may need to click
Preferences
from the initial
box to see all of the available system settings you can
change. If you are not familiar with a feature in the printer driver window, open the online Help for more
information.
