SELECTING PRINT MEDIA

You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper, envelopes,

labels, and transparencies. Always use print media that meet the guidelines

for use with your machine.

Guidelines to select the print media

Print media that does not meet the guidelines outlined in this user’s guide

may cause the following problems:

Poor print quality

Increased paper jams

Premature wear on the machine.

Properties, such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture content, are

important factors that affect the machine’s performance and the output

quality. When you choose print materials, consider the following:

The type, size and weight of the print media for your machine are

described in print media specifications. (See "Print media specifications"

on page 126.)

Desired outcome: The print media you choose should be appropriate for

your project.

Brightness: Some print media are whiter than others and produce

sharper, more vibrant images.

Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the print media affects how

crisp the printing looks on the paper.

Some print media may meet all of the guidelines in this section and

still not produce satisfactory results. This may be the result of

improper handling, unacceptable temperature and humidity levels,

or other variables over which cannot be controled.

Before purchasing large quantities of print media, ensure that it

meets the requirements specified in this user’s guide.

Using print media that does not meet these specifications may cause

problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are not covered by the

warranty or service agreements.

The amount of paper put into the tray may differ according to media type

used. (See "Print media specifications" on page 126.)
