Choosing Print Media
Paper

like copier type paper or paper with a Sheffield rating of
100-250.
• Store paper in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use it.
Keep it away from moisture or other conditions that can
cause it to wrinkle or curl.
• Preprinted forms must not scorch, melt, offset, or release
hazardous emissions when heated to 200ºC (392ºF) for
0.1 second.
• Avoid printing on both sides of the paper or preprinted
documents that have been in a photocopier.
• Try paper before you buy it in quantity.
Transparencies/Adhesive Labels
• Use manual feed.
• Should be specifically made for laser printers or
photocopiers.
• Must be able to withstand 200ºC for 0.1 second.
• Labels should cover entire carrier sheet.
• Carrier sheet or adhesive must not be exposed to any part
of the printer.
Envelopes

• No windows or metal clasps.
• Paper no heavier than 105g/m².
• Smooth, even surface.
