Print Media Guidelines
Storing Print Media
For proper print media storage, the following guidelines help avoid media feeding problems and uneven print
quality.
• For best results, store print media in an environment where the temperature is approximately 21°C (70°F) and the
relative humidity is 40%.
• Store cartons of print media on a pallet or shelf, rather than directly on the floor.
• If you store individual packages of print media out of the original carton, ensure that they rest on a flat surface so
that the edges do not buckle or curl.
• Do not place anything on top of the print media packages.
