Paper Thickness
Paper thickness is given by the weight of the paper in either grams per square meter
(g/m

paper thickness for one-part paper or for each sheet of multipart paper. The total
thickness must not exceed 0.35 mm (0.014 inch).
The weight of carbonless or carbon-backed paper may vary, depending upon the pa-
per manufacturer. When using paper of borderline thickness, test the paper before
running a job.
