CAUTION:
When you are choosing print media, be sure to follow the information given below to prevent
any paper jams, print quality problems or printer damage;
•
It is recommended to use long-grained paper for the best print quality. If short-grained
paper is being used, it might be the cause of paper jams.
•
Use neutral paper. Do not use acid paper to avoid any damage to the drum unit.
•
Avoid using coated paper such as vinyl coated paper.
•
Avoid using preprinted or highly textured paper.
•
It is recommended to use labels or transparencies which are designed for use in laser
printers.
•
Avoid feeding labels with the carrier sheet exposed, or the printer will be damaged.
•
Before loading paper with holes such as organizer sheets, be sure to fan the stack well.
•
Do not use organizer sheets that are stuck together. The glue that is used might caused
damaged to the printer.
•
When printing on the back of pre-printed paper, if the paper is curled, be sure to straighten
the paper as much as possible.
•
Different types of paper should not be loaded at the same time in the paper cassette to
avoid any paper jams or misfeeds.
