Selecting Prepunched Paper

Prepunched paper brands can differ in the number and placement of holes and in manufacturing techniques.

Use the following guidelines to select and use prepunched paper:

Test paper from several manufacturers before ordering and using large quantities of pre-punched
paper.

Paper should be punched at the paper manufacturer and not drilled into paper already packaged in a
ream. Drilled paper can cause jams when multiple sheets feed through the multi-function printer.

Prepunched paper can include more paper dust than standard paper. Your multi-function printer may
require more frequent cleaning and feed reliability may not be as good as that of standard paper.

Transparencies

Try a sample of any transparencies you are considering using with the multi-function printer before buying
large quantities:

Use transparencies designed specifically for laser printers. Transparencies must be able to withstand
temperatures of 205° C (401° F) without melting, discoloring, offsetting or releasing hazardous
emissions.
