Print Media Guidelines
Printer media includes paper, card stock, transparencies, labels, and envelopes. Your printer provides high
quality printing on a variety of print media. Selecting the appropriate print media for your printer helps you
avoid printing problems. To get the best possible print quality, use only high-quality, copier-grade paper.
When you choose print materials, consider the followings:
Desired outcome: The paper you choose should be appropriate for the project.
Size: You can use any size paper that fits easily within the paper adjusters of the paper tray.
Weight: Your printer supports paper weights as follows:
16~24 lbs (60~90 g/m
2
) bond for the paper tray
16~43 lbs (60~163 g/m
2
) bond for manual feed mode
Brightness: Some papers are whiter than others and produces sharper, more vibrant images.
Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the paper affects how crisp the printing looks on the paper.
