Binding cut sheets:
When using carbonless or carbon-backed paper, be sure forms are pasted at the top. Paste must be applied
evenly and must not cause wrinkles, creases, or discoloration.
Binding carbon-interleaved multipart paper (continuous forms only):
Process carbon-interleaved multipart paper as follows:
• Paste each carbon to the paper at the left and right margins at spots other than sprocket hole areas.
• Paste each carbon to the paper at the left and right margins including the sprocket hole areas while aligning
the carbon’s sprocket holes with those of the paper.
Perforations:
Poor or incomplete horizontal and vertical perforations cause paper jams. The tie-to-cut ratio for both types of
perforation must be 1 to 3.
