Paper Guidelines

When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special media,
keep these guidelines in mind:

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

cause paper jams and poor print quality.

• Use cut-sheet paper only. You cannot use multipart paper.

• Use only high quality, copier grade paper. Avoid paper with

embossed lettering, perforations, or texture that is too smooth or too
rough.

• Coloured paper should be of the same high quality as white

photocopy paper. The pigments must withstand the printer’s fusing
temperature of 400

o

F (205

o

C) for 0.1 second without deterioration.

Do not use paper with a colored coating that was added after the
paper was produced.

• Pre-printed forms must be printed with non-flammable, heat-

resistant inks that do not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous
emissions when subject to the printer’s approximately 400

o

F (205

o

C) fusing temperature for 0.1 second.

• Store paper in its ream wrapper until ready to use. 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.

• During storage, moisture-proof wrap (any plastic container or bag)

should be used to prevent dust and moisture from contaminating
your paper.

• You can use transparencies and labels designed for laser printers.

Transparencies used in the printer must be able to withstand 400

o

F

(205

o

C), the printer’s maximum temperature.

• Always use paper and other media that conforms with those listed

under ‘Specifications’ on page A-2.

• When you choose envelopes, use only well-constructed envelopes

with sharp, and well creased folds.
- DO NOT use envelopes with clasps and snaps.
- DO NOT use envelopes with windows, coated linings, self-stick

adhesives, or other synthetic materials.

- DO NOT use damaged or poorly made envelopes.
