Handling Paper
• Hold the paper as closely as possible to its edges and try not to touch the print surface. Print
quality will deteriorate if the print surface is damaged or becomes dirty.
• Do not touch the print surface until the ink has dried.
• Some paper may curl and the print surface may smudge if you have used a large amount of ink
for printing. If this occurs, move the paper thickness lever to the right (see page 21). Paper that
tends to curl is not recommended for printing photographs or graphics. Use it for printing mainly
text.
• If the paper is curled, uncurl it before printing.
• Place the paper back into its packet when not using it, and store out of direct sunlight in a place
where the temperature and humidity are low.
