PAPER
The printer 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. Some important guidelines when selecting paper are:
1.
Supplier should be informed that the paper or envelopes will be used in a
laser printer.
2.
Preprinted paper must use inks that can withstand the temperature of the
printer’s fusing process. (200 degrees centigrade)
3.
If you have selected a cotton bond paper, paper having a rough surface,
such as cockle or laid finished paper or paper that is wrinkled or
puckered, the paper may exhibit degraded performance.
Note
The manufacturer does not warrant the use of any particular paper. The
operator is responsible for the quality of paper used with the printer.
