Selecting, Testing, and Ordering Paper Forms
To get the maximum print quality and reliability from your 3130, IBM recommends
that you rely on the
Advanced Function Printer Cut-Sheet Paper Reference
, your
paper forms supplier, and your marketing representative to help you choose the
best forms and special-purpose materials for your applications.
Storing Paper and Supplies
Store paper and supplies that you intend to use soon near the printer, both for
convenience and to condition the paper.
Otherwise, store paper and supplies
In their original wrappers, away from heat or dampness
On a flat surface, such as a shelf, but not on the floor
In a closable cabinet for protection and monitoring.
Store forms and special-purpose materials in an area where the temperature and
humidity are similar to the environment where you will use them. Avoid areas with
extreme heat or humidity. Extended exposure to extremes can permanently
damage the materials. Storing forms in an area where relative humidity is above
65% may result in reduced print quality.
To condition IBM 3130 supplies, store them in the same environment as the printer
for at least 24 hours before you use them. At other times, supplies may be stored
in an environment that does not exceed the following requirements:
Temperature −10° to 40°C (14° to 104°F)
Relative Humidity 5% to 80%
