Paper and Other Media
When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special media please adhere to these
guidelines:
¾ Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause paper jams and
poor print quality.
¾ Use only high quality copier grade paper. Avoid paper with embossed lettering,
perforations, or texture that is too smooth or too rough.
¾ Store paper in its ream wrapper until ready to use. Place cartons on pallets or shelves, not
on the floor. Do not place heavy objects on top of the paper, whether it is packaged or
unpackaged. Keep it away from moisture, or other conditions that can cause it to wrinkle or
curl.
¾ During storage, moisture-proof wrap (any plastic container or bag) should be used to
prevent dust and moisture from contaminating your paper.
¾ Always use paper and other media that conform with the specifications detailed in
“General Specifications” on page 11-6.
¾ Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp, well creased folds:
- DO NOT use envelopes with clasps and snaps.
- DO NOT use envelopes with windows, coated lining, self-adhesive seals, or other
synthetic materials.
- DO NOT use damaged or poorly made envelopes.
¾ It is recommended that you feed special paper types one sheet at a time.
¾ Only use the special media recommended for use in laser printers.
¾ To prevent special media such as transparencies and label sheets from sticking together,
remove them from the exit tray as they are printed.
¾ Place transparencies on a flat surface after removing them from the machine.
¾ Do not leave the film in the paper tray for long periods of time. Dust and dirt may
accumulate on them resulting in spotty printing.
¾ To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle transparencies and coated paper
carefully.
¾ To avoid fading, do not expose the printed transparencies to prolonged sunlight.
¾ Store unused media at temperatures between 59 o F and 86 o F (15 o C to 30 o C). The relative
humidity should be between 10% and 70%.
¾ Do not load more than 10 sheets of special media into the Bypass Tray at a time.
¾ Verify that your labels’ adhesive material can tolerate fusing temperature of 200 o C (392 o F)
for 0.1 second.
