Lexmark 4.3 in. Spacer — Elevate Access and Optimize Tray Ergonomics

The Lexmark 4.3 in. (11 cm) Spacer is a practical, purpose-built accessory designed to add meaningful height to your printer tray system. By extending the output area, this spacer makes it easier to reach and retrieve printed pages, reducing strain during long print runs and improving overall workflow efficiency in busy offices, clinics, and production environments. Engineered to work with Lexmark configurations that include additional trays, the Spacer helps you tailor your printing setup to your unique space and workload. Note that the spacer cannot be used with the 2,100-Sheet Tray, so planning your tray arrangement in advance ensures you maximize the benefits of this accessory without compatibility concerns. When you configure the spacer alongside multiple trays (1–4), the optional caster base may be required to provide mobility and stability wherever you place your printer station. This combination supports a cleaner, more organized output area while preserving the reliability and performance you expect from Lexmark.

• The 4.3-inch height increase is designed to improve access to printed pages, making it easier to handle large print jobs, multi-page reports, and high-volume outputs without bending or reaching awkwardly.
• Not compatible with the 2,100-Sheet Tray, so plan your tray lineup accordingly to avoid misfits and maximize your printer’s efficiency with the spacer in the supported configurations.
• The spacer is most effective when used with an optional caster base, which may be required when configured with the spacer or when adding up to four trays; casters enable smooth repositioning and flexible workspace layouts.
• Lightweight yet durable, the spacer integrates with Lexmark tray assemblies to provide stable height extension without compromising alignment, ensuring consistent paper handling and reliable output during long print runs.
• Designed for professional environments where ergonomic access and streamlined operation matter, the spacer complements Lexmark printers by expanding the practical workspace and reducing manual effort during print-to-stack processes.

Technical Details of Lexmark 4.3 in. (11 cm) Spacer

• Base options: Optional caster base may be required when configured with the spacer or additional trays (1–4); caster base is sold separately to support mobility and stability in varied setups.
• Product type: Spacer accessory for Lexmark printer systems — a targeted upgrade designed to align with Lexmark tray assemblies for a cohesive, reliable workflow.
• Inclusion details: Spacer component only; additional trays and caster bases are sold separately as part of a modular system to suit different print workloads and workspace layouts.

How to install Lexmark 4.3 in. Spacer

• Power down and unplug the printer before beginning installation to ensure safety and prevent any movement of internal components during assembly.
• Identify the tray stack where you want to add height and confirm compatibility with your Lexmark configuration, keeping the 2,100-Sheet Tray restriction in mind.
• Align the spacer with the connector points on the top tray and press gently until it seats firmly; ensure there is no binding and that the spacer sits flush with the surrounding trays.
• If you are configuring the spacer with additional trays (1–4) and require mobility, attach the optional caster base according to the product instructions, making sure the base is securely anchored and level.
• Reconnect power and perform a test print to verify alignment, stability, and smooth operation of the tray stack; observe for any misfeeds or wobble that could indicate an improper installation.

Frequently asked questions

• What does the Lexmark 4.3 in. Spacer do? It raises the height of the printer’s output area by 4.3 inches, enabling easier access to printed pages, quicker retrieval, and reduced reach strain during high-volume print jobs.
• Is the spacer compatible with all Lexmark trays? No. The spacer cannot be used with the 2,100-Sheet Tray, so ensure your tray configuration excludes that model when planning installation.
• Do I need a caster base? An optional caster base may be required when the spacer is used with additional trays (1–4) to maintain stability and provide mobile flexibility; bases are sold separately.
• Will using the spacer affect print quality? No. The spacer does not impact print quality; it simply modifies the height and accessibility of the output area while maintaining original tray alignment and print integrity.
• How should I care for the spacer? Wipe with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris; avoid harsh chemicals, and keep connector surfaces clean to preserve secure seating and reliable performance over time.
