Paper Storage Guidelines

Storing your paper and other media properly contributes to optimum print quality.

Store paper in dark, cool, relatively dry locations. Most paper is susceptible to damage from

ultraviolet and visible light. Ultraviolet light, from the sun and fluorescent bulbs, is particularly

damaging to paper.

Reduce the exposure of paper to strong lights for long periods of time.

Maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.

Avoid storing paper in attics, kitchens, garages, or basements. These spaces are more likely to collect

moisture.

Store paper flat, either on pallets, cartons, shelves, or in cabinets.

Avoid food or drinks in the area where paper is stored or handled.

Do not open sealed packages of paper until you are ready to load them into the printer. Leave

stored paper in the original packaging. The paper wrapper protects the paper from moisture loss or

gain.

Some special media is packaged inside resealable plastic bags. Store the media inside the bag until

you are ready to use it. Keep unused media in the bag and reseal it for protection.
