Acceptable paper and
other print media 2
Print quality may vary according to the type of
paper you are using.
You can use the following types of print
media: plain paper, bond paper, recycled
paper, transparencies, labels or envelopes.
For best results, follow the instructions below:
Use paper made for plain paper copying.
Use paper that is 20 to 24 lb (75 to
90 g/m
2
).
Use labels and transparencies which are
designed for use in laser machines.
DO NOT put different types of paper in the
paper tray at the same time because it
may cause paper jams or misfeeds.
For proper printing, you must choose the
same paper size from your software
application as the paper in the tray.
Avoid touching the printed surface of the
paper immediately after printing.
When you use transparencies remove
each sheet immediately to prevent
smudging or paper jams.
Use long grain paper with a neutral Ph
value, and a moisture content of approx.
5%.

the following paper.
Type and size of paper 2
The machine loads paper from the installed

table in Paper capacity of the paper trays
on page 15. The standard paper tray can
hold up to 250 sheets of Letter/A4, legal or

be loaded up to the maximum paper mark on
the sliding paper width guide.

size of 3 to 8.66 in. (76.2 to 220 mm) wide
