When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special
media, keep these guidelines in mind:

• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper

can cause paper jams and poor print quality.

• Use cut-sheet paper only. You cannot use multiply forms.

• Use only high-quality, copier grade paper.

• Do not use paper that has been printed on or that has

been fed through a photocopier.

• Do not use paper with irregularities, such as tabs or

staples.

• Do not attempt to overload the tray during printing.

• Avoid paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or

texture that is too smooth or rough.

• Colored paper should be of the same high quality as white

photocopy paper. The pigments must withstand the printer’s
fusing temperature of 400°F (205°C) for 0.1 second without
deterioration. Do not use paper with a colored coating that
was added after the paper was produced.

• Preprinted forms must be printed with nonflammable, heat-

resistant inks that do not melt, vaporize, or release
hazardous emissions when subject to the printer’s fusing
temperature.

• Store paper in its ream wrapper until ready for use. Place

cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor.

• Do not place heavy objects on top of the paper, whether it

is packaged or unpackaged.

• Keep paper away from moisture, direct sunlight or other

conditions that can cause wrinkle or curl.
