Choosing acceptable paper

We recommend that you test paper (especially special sizes and
types of paper) on the MFC before purchasing large quantities.

■

Avoid feeding label sheets that are partly used or your MFC will
be damaged.

■

Avoid using coated paper, such as vinyl coated paper.

■

Avoid using preprinted or highly textured paper, or paper with an
embossed letterhead.

For optimum printing, use a recommended type of paper, especially
for plain paper and transparencies. For more information on paper
specifications, call your nearest authorized sales representative or
the place where you purchased your MFC.

■

Use label or transparencies that are designed for use in laser
printers.

■

For the best print quality, we recommend using long-grained
paper.

■

If you are using special paper and the paper has problems
feeding from the paper tray, try again using the manual feed tray
or multi-purpose tray.

■

You can use recycled paper in this MFC.

The output quality depends on the paper type and paper brand.
