Printing Methods

Handling and using special paper

The machine is designed to work well with most types of xerographic and bond paper. However, some paper

variables may have an effect on print quality or handling reliability. Always test samples of paper before

purchasing to ensure desirable performance. Store paper in its original packaging and keep it sealed. Keep

the paper flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat.

Some important guidelines when selecting paper are:



DO NOT use inkjet paper because it may cause a paper jam or damage your machine.



Preprinted paper must use ink that can withstand the temperature of the machine's fusing process

200 degrees centigrade (392 degrees Fahrenheit).



If you use bond paper, paper having a rough surface or paper that is wrinkled or creased, the paper may

exhibit degraded performance.



When you are using glossy paper, put only one sheet at a time in the MP tray to avoid a paper jam.
