Card stock guidelines

Card stock is single ply, and has a large array of properties. The ori-
entation of paper fibers, moisture content, thickness, and texture
can all affect printing on card stock. See

page 23

for information on

the preferred weight for the grain direction of print materials.

When printing on card stock:

Be sure to select

Card

Stock

in the

PAPER

TYPE

menu in the

PAPER

MENU

(refer to the

Administrator’s Guide

for detailed

information about these settings).

Be aware that preprinting, perforation, and creasing can sig-
nificantly affect the print quality and cause paper handling or
jamming problems.

Avoid using card stock that may release hazardous emissions
when heated.
