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
printer.

Prepunched paper can include more paper dust than standard paper. Your 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 printer before buying large
quantities:

Use transparencies designed specifically for laser printers. Transparencies must be able to
withstand temperatures of 180° C (356° F) without melting, discoloring, offsetting or
releasing hazardous emissions.

Avoid getting fingerprints on the transparencies, as this can cause poor print quality.

Before loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent the sheets from sticking together.

Load one transparency at a time into the MPF.
