CHAPTER THREE
■ Brother coated (ink jet) paper is coated only on one side. When
loading paper in the paper cassette, make sure that the whiter side
(the coated side) is facing down.
■ The coated side of glossy paper is shiny. Do not touch the shiny side.
Load glossy paper in the paper cassette with the shiny side facing
down.
■ DO NOT touch the coated side of the paper or either side of
transparencies, because the media absorbs water and perspiration
easily, and this might cause decreased output quality.
■ For optimum output quality, be sure to use paper appropriate for your
resolution setting.
■ Store paper in the original bag, and keep it sealed. Keep the paper
flat and away from moisture and direct sunlight and heat.
■ Transparencies designed for laser printers/copiers may stain your
next document. Use only recommended transparencies for ink jet
printer.
