Handling Paper General Guidelines The machine is designed to print on standard copier paper (the type used in ordinary dry copier machines), but it can also accept a variety of other types of paper within the limits specified below. NOTE: The manufacturer assumes no liability for problems that occur when paper not satisfying these requirements is used. Selection of the right paper is important. Using the wrong paper can result in paper jams, curling, poor print quality, and paper waste, and

Handling Paper Selecting the Right Paper This section describes the guidelines for selecting paper. Condition Avoid using paper that is bent at the edges, curled, dirty, torn, embossed, or contaminated with lint, clay, or paper shreds. Use of paper in these conditions can lead to illegible printing and paper jams, and can shorten the life of the machine. In particular, avoid using paper with a surface coating or other surface treatment. Paper should have as smooth and even a surface as poss

If you are having problems with paper jams, multiple feeds, and faint printing, the paper you are using may be too thin. If you are having problems with paper jams and blurred printing the paper may be too thick. The correct thickness is 0.086 to 0.110mm (3.4 to 4.3 mils). Moisture C

Handling Paper grain paper can cause feeding problems in the machine. All paper used in the machine should be long grain. Other Paper Properties Porosity: Indicates the density of paper fiber. Stiffness: Limp paper may buckle in the machine, resulting in paper jams. Curl: Most paper naturally tends to curl one way if left unpacked. When paper passes through the fixing unit, it curls upward a little. To produce flat printouts, load the paper so that the upward pressure from the machine can c

Handling Paper Since the composition and quality of special paper vary considerably, special paper is more likely than white bond paper to give trouble during printing. No liability will be assumed if moisture and so forth given off during printing on special paper causes harm to the machine or operator. NOTE: Before purchasing any type of special paper, test a sample on the machine and check that printing quality is satisfactory. Transparency Transparencies must be able to withstand the he

Handling Paper Adhesive label paper must be entirely covered by its top sheet, with no spaces between the individual labels. Labels with spaces in between are liable to peel off, causing serious paper jam problems. Some label paper is manufactured with an extra margin of top sheet around the edge. Do not remove the extra top sheet from the carrier sheet until after printing is finished. Acceptable Unacceptable Top sheet Carrier sheet The table below lists the specifications for adhesive lab

Handling Paper Envelopes Envelopes should be fed in the face-up position, right edge first. Since the composition of an envelope is more complex than that of ordinary paper, it is not always possible to ensure consistent printing quality over the entire envelope surface. Normally, envelopes have a diagonal grain direction. See Paper Grain on page 1-6. This direction can easily cause wrinkles and creases when envelopes pass through the printer. Before purchasing envelopes, make a test

Handling Paper Preprinted Paper Preprinted paper should satisfy the same conditions as white bond paper, refer to Paper Specifications, on page 1-2.The preprinted ink must be able to withstand the heat of fusing during the printing process, and must not be affected by silicone oil. Do not use paper with any kind of surface treatment, such as the type of paper commonly used for calendars.

Handling Paper Paper Type The printer is capable of printing under the optimum setting for the type of paper being used. Setting the paper type for the paper source from the printer’s operator panel will cause the printer to automatically select the paper source and print in the mode best suited to that type of paper. A different paper type setting can be made for each paper source including the MP tray. Not only can preset paper types be selected, but it is also possible for you to defin
