Card stock construction

Smoothness: Card stock should have smoothness in the range
of 100 to 180 Sheffield.

Construction: Card stock should lie flat with less than 5 mm
(0.2 in) of curl. It should be short grain paper to improve feeding
and reduce wear on the printer.

Condition: Make sure card stock is not wrinkled, nicked, or
otherwise damaged.

Sizes: Use only card stock within the following size ranges:

• minimum: 76 by 127 mm (3 by 5 in)

• maximum: 216 by 356 mm (8.5 by 14 in)

Before loading card stock in tray 1, make sure it is regular in shape
and not damaged. Also, make sure the cards are not stuck together.

Card stock guidelines

If cards curl or jam, try printing from tray 1 and opening the rear
output bin.

Set margins at least 6 mm (0.24 in) away from the edges of the
paper.
