Choosing Print Materials

Preprinted forms and letterhead

Use the following guidelines when selecting preprinted forms and
letterhead paper for the printer:

Use grain long papers for best results.

Use only forms and letterhead printed using an offset litho-
graphic or engraved printing process.

Choose papers that absorb ink, but do not bleed.

Avoid papers with rough or heavily textured surfaces.

Use papers printed with heat-resistant inks designed for use
in xerographic copiers. The ink must withstand temperatures
of 212

C (414

o

F) without melting or releasing hazardous

emissions. Use inks that are not affected by the resin in the
toner or the silicone in the fuser. Inks that are oxidation-set or
oil-based should meet these requirements. Latex inks might
not meet these requirements. If you are in doubt, contact your
paper supplier.
