Paper Storage
REGAL 5790 MATERIALS USAGE GUIDE
Paper is normally shipped in fiberboard cartons. The number of
reams in a carton depends on the size of the paper. If a large
quantity of paper has been ordered, the cartons are stacked on
wooden pallets.
Mishandled cartons (for example, dropped, thrown, or struck with a
fork lift), may result in damaged paper, some of which may not be
immediately obvious. The use of damaged paper increases the
frequency of paper jams and other feeding problems.
Do not store the cartons directly on the floor; this increases the
possibility of moisture absorption. Store the cartons on pallets,
shelves, or in cabinets in an area protected from extremes of
temperature and humidity.
Do not open the sealed reams of paper until the paper is to be
loaded into the copier/printer. Leave the paper in the original ream
wrapper, and leave the reams in the shipping carton. The ream
wrapper contains an inner lining which protects the paper from
moisture. Removing the ream wrapper eliminates the protective
barrier, exposing the paper to moisture fluctuations which can result
in excessive curl and other undesirable effects.
Paper from an unopened ream will provide excellent performance.
When paper from an opened ream will not be used for a period of
time, such as overnight, the ream wrapper should be resealed with
tape. For best results, loose paper should be stored in a resealable
plastic bag, or in paper trays 1, 2, or 3 in the machine.
Do not store paper in the Paper Tray Bypass. Load only enough
paper in the Paper Tray Bypass for the job being run.
If using paper from a ream that has been left open, take the sheets
from the center of the ream.
