Paper Sizes
The following table lists the sizes of paper that can be used in the cassette or multi-bypass tray.
The dimensional tolerances are ±0.7 mm for both length and width of paper. The corner angles must
be 90 ° ±0.2 °.
Smoothness
Although paper should have smooth and even surfaces, do not use paper with surface coating.
Paper with too smooth surfaces may cause multiple-sheet feeding, resulting in paper jams.
Basis weight
Basis weight is the weight of paper expressed in grams per square meter (g/m²). Paper that is too
heavy or too light may cause feed errors or paper jams as well as premature wear of the product.
Uneven weight of paper, namely uneven paper thickness may cause multiple-sheet feeding or print
quality problems such as blurring because of poor toner fusing.
The recommended basis weight is between 60 and 105 g/m² (16 and 28 lb/ream) for the cassette
and between 45 and 160 g/m² (12 and 42 lb/ream) for the multi-bypass tray.
Thickness
Paper used by the printer should be neither too thick nor too thin. If multiple-sheet feed or frequent
paper jams occur, the paper may be too thin. Also if the paper is too thick, paper jams may occur.
The recommended thickness of a sheet for this printer is between 0.086 and 0.110 mm.
Moisture Content
Moisture content is expressed with the percentage of moisture relative to dryness. Moisture affects
paper feeding, electrostatic properties, and toner fusing onto the paper.
The moisture content of paper varies with the relative humidity in the room. If the room is too humid
and paper absorbs more moisture, the edges may swell and the paper may become wavy. If the
room is too dry and the paper loses moisture, the edges shrink and tighten, and the print contrast
may be degraded.
