Guidelines for selecting and storing print media

When selecting or loading paper, or other print materials, keep these
guidelines in mind:
• Always use print media that conform with the specifications listed on

page 4.3.

• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause

paper jams and poor print quality.

• For the best print quality, use only high quality copier grade paper

specifically recommended for use in laser machines.

• Avoid using the following media types:

- Paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or a texture that is too

smooth or too rough

- Erasable bond paper
- Multi-paged paper
- Synthetic paper and thermally reactive paper
- Carbonless paper and Tracing paper.
Use of these types of paper could result in paper jams, chemical
smells, and damage to your machine.

• Store print media in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use it.

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.

• Store unused print media at temperatures between 15 °C and 30 °C.

The relative humidity should be between 10% and 70%.

• Store unused print media in a moisture-proof wrap, such as a plastic

container or bag, to prevent dust and moisture from contaminating
your paper.

• Load special media types one sheet at a time through the tray to avoid

paper jams.

• To prevent print media, such as transparencies and label sheets, from

sticking together, remove them as they print out.
