Selecting the Right Paper
This section describes the guidelines for selecting paper.
Condition
Avoid using paper that is bent at the edges, curled, dirty, torn, embossed, or contaminated with lint,
clay, or paper shreds.
Use of paper in these conditions can lead to illegible printing and paper jams, and can shorten the
life of the machine. In particular, avoid using paper with a surface coating or other surface treatment.
Paper should have as smooth and even a surface as possible.
Composition
Do not use paper that has been coated or surface-treated and contains plastic or carbon. The heat
of fusing can cause such paper to give off harmful fumes.
Bond paper should contain at least 80% pulp. Not more than 20% of the total paper content should
consist of cotton or other fibers.
Paper Sizes
Cassettes and the MP tray are available for the paper sizes listed in the table below. The
dimensional tolerances are ±0.7mm for the length and width. The angle at the corners must be 90°
±0.2°.
Smoothness
The paper should have a smooth, uncoated surface. Paper with a rough or sandy surface can
cause voids in the printed output. Paper that is too smooth can cause multiple feeding and fogging
problems. (Fogging is a gray background effect.)
