Types of paper to avoid
•
Extremely smooth or shiny paper or paper that is highly textured
•
Letterhead imprinted with low temperature or thermography. These
materials may transfer onto the fusing roller and cause damage.
Any pre-printed paper should use inks compatible with 200°C (392°F) for
0.1 second.
•
Damaged or wrinkled paper, or paper with irregularities such as tabs,
staples, etc.
•
Multipart forms or carbonless paper
•
Paper with a 25% or more cotton and/or fiber content
•
Ink jet paper (It may transfer onto the fuser roller and cause damage.)
■
Two-sided printing (Duplex printing)
Two-sided printing is possible by using the multi-purpose tray. However,
you should not expect the same print quality and reliability that you get with
one-sided printing. We strongly recommend that you follow the guidelines
below.
•
Do not load more than 50 sheets in the multi-purpose tray.
•
Before loading paper in the multi-purpose tray, adjust it so that the edges
of the media are lightly touching the media guides of the multi-purpose
tray.
•
Use heavier paper, at least 95 to 165
g

2
(28 to 44 lbs. Bond) for reliable
feed. Do not load a thin sheet of paper in the multi-purpose tray. It may
cause a paper jam.
•
It is strongly suggested to use color laser bond paper.
•
Use multi-purpose tray for second side printing.
•
Avoid printing photograph or graphic in solid color to prevent paper
jamming. It may cause a damage to the printer.
•
Before printing on the first side, set the unprintable area [at least 15 mm
(0.59") in length] on the top of paper. (See below.)
