Media guidelines
With the Lexmark C510 print technology, paper designed for use
with xerographic copiers should provide satisfactory print quality and
feed reliability. Other media types may be suitable. We recommend
that users test any particular brand for suitability to their
applications. Refer to the printer User's Reference for additional
media specifications.
Paper
• Rough, highly textured, limp, or pre-curled papers will result in
lower print quality and more frequent paper feed failures.
•
Colored papers must be able to withstand 338°F (170°C) fusing
temperature.
•
Preprinted forms and letterheads should be selected using
guidelines in the printer User's Reference. The chemical
process used in preprinting may render some papers unsuitable
for use with the printer.
•
Unsuitable papers include punched, embossed, water-marked,
perforated media, any kind of inkjet paper or plastic-coated
paper.
• Recycled paper less than 75 g/m
2
(20 lb) may cause
unacceptable results.
The laser printing process heats paper to high temperatures of
170°C (338°F). Use only paper able to withstand these
temperatures without discoloring, bleeding, or releasing hazardous
emissions. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to determine
whether the paper you have chosen is acceptable for laser printers.
Envelopes
Should be fed with short edge first, flap down and to the right.
