Handling and using print
media

„ Store paper in its original packaging, and
keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and
away from moisture, direct sunlight and
heat.
„ Avoid touching the shiny (coated) side of
photo paper. Load photo paper with the
shiny side facing down.
„ Avoid touching either side of
transparencies because they absorb
water and perspiration easily, and this
may cause decreased output quality.
Transparencies designed for laser
printers/copiers may stain your next
document. Use only transparencies
recommended for inkjet printing.
„ You can only print on both sides of the
paper with PC printing. (See Printing for
Windows
®
in the Software User’s Guide
on the CD-ROM.)
