Introduction
Printer Status Monitor Center is an application that shows the status of multi-
ple printing devices connected to the host through local ports (USB) or net-
work ports. Printer Status Monitor Center locates network printing devices by
using the Service Location Protocol (SLP), and only supports printing devices
responding to KONICA MINOLTA–specific SLP and PJL queries such as
magicolor 2430 DL and magicolor 5430 DL.
" If a KONICA MINOLTA product is not compatible with both SLP and
KONICA MINOLTA–specific PJL, Printer Status Monitor Center cannot
be used.

Envelopes
Print on the front (address) side only. Some parts of the envelope consist of
three layers of paper—the front, back, and flap. Anything printed in these lay-
ered regions may be lost or faded.
Use envelopes that are
Common office envelopes approved for laser printing with diagonal joints,
sharp folds and edges, and ordinary gummed flaps
" Because the envelopes pass through heated rollers, the gummed
area on the flaps may seal. Using envelopes with emulsion-based
glue avoids this problem.

Transparencies
" Do not fan transparencies before loading them. Resulting static elec-
tricity may cause printing errors.
" If you touch the face of the transparencies with your bare hands, print
quality may be affected.
" Keep the printer path clean. Transparencies are especially sensitive to
a dirty media path. If there are shadows on either the top or the bottom
of the sheets, see chapter 7, “Maintaining the Printer” .
" Remove transparencies as soon as possible from the output tray to
avoid static buildup.
You can print continuously with transparencies. However, this could affect the
media feed, depending on the media quality, static buildup, and printing envi-
ronment.
Format the information to be printed on the transparencies within your appli-
cation. Try printing your data on a sheet of plain paper first to check place-
ment.

How do I load media?
Take off the top and bottom sheets of a

" Do not fan transparencies.
Note
Although this printer was designed for printing on a wide range of
media types, it is not intended to print exclusively on a single media
type except plain paper. Continuous printing on media other than plain
paper (such as envelopes, labels, thick stock, or transparencies) may
adversely affect print quality or reduce engine life.
When refilling media, first remove any media remaining in the tray. Stack it
with the new media, even the edges, then reload it.
