Paper Specifications
Overview
Your machine accepts a variety of print materials, such as cut-sheet paper, including
up to 100 % recycled fiber content paper, envelopes, labels, transparencies and
custom-size paper. Properties, such as weight, composition, grain and moisture
content, are important factors affecting the machine’s performance and the output
quality. Paper that does not meet the guidelines outlined in this operating instructions
can cause the following problems:
• Poor print quality
• Increased paper jams
• Premature wear on the machine.
NOTES
:
• Some paper may meet all of the guidelines in this guide and still not produce
satisfactory results. This may be the result of improper handling, unacceptable
temperature and humidity levels or other variables over which the manufacturer has
no control.
• Before purchasing large quantities of paper, insure the paper meets the requirements
specified in this operating instructions.
