Guidelines for Paper and Special Materials

When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special
materials, 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 multi-part paper.

• Use only high-quality, copier grade paper for the best print

quality.

• Do not use paper that has been already printed on or that has

been fed through a photocopier.

• Do not use paper with irregularities, such as tabs or staples.

• Do not attempt to load any feeder during printing and never

overfill the feeder. This could cause a paper jam.

• Avoid paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or texture

that is too smooth or too rough.

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

photocopy paper. The pigments must withstand the printer’s
fusing temperature of 400°F (205°C) for 0.1 second without
deterioration. Do not use paper with a colored coating that was
added after the paper was produced.

• Preprinted forms must be printed with nonflammable, heat-

resistant ink that do not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous
emissions when subject to the printer’s approximately 400°F
(205°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 paper away from moisture, direct sunlight or other

conditions that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.
