Handling Paper

Although this printer can print on any sheet within the limits stated

above, printing area and margin calculations are based on several
paper sizes as shown in the table below. Use the control panel to
change the supported paper size.

When the PCL emulation is used and if the physical paper size (tray

size or MFF paper size) is different from the logical paper size (value
specified by setup menu of paper size), a paper mismatch error
occurs.

General Tips

Observe the following tips when handling print media.

l

Do not use paper that is wrinkled or curled.

l

Do not use paper with staples or metal parts.

l

When printing both sides of sheets, we recommend you to use an

optional duplex unit. If your printer has no duplex unit, use the

manual feed slot and remove curls after first printing. Use paper in
60 to 90 g/m2 (16 to 24 pound) weight for the duplex unit and 6 0
to 105 g/m2 (16 to 28 pound) weight for the manual feed slot.
Paper thinner than this weight may be wrinkled thus causing
decrease in print quality.

l

Two-sided printing is not allowed for transparencies, envelopes,

and labels even if your printer has the duplex unit.
