PK80 Series 80-Column User’s Manual
Paper
Use of paper that matches the following specifications ensures
optimum PK80 performance. Variation from these specifications, use
of aged paper, or use of paper exposed to elements such as dirt or
humidity may cause printing problems.
The printer works with 1–3 ply carbonless paper that is single-edge glued
and designed for sprocket feed. Standard paper size is 8.5 x 11” or 8.5 x
12” (241 x 305 mm international). Use 3-ply forms up to a maximum of
0.009 inch (0.23 mm) thick.
A soft, flexible, rubber type cement applied to one perforation strip only is
preferred. The resultant lamination should wrap around a 1-1/4 inch di-
ameter roll without curl or wrinkle.
