Card stock guidelines
Card stock is single ply, and has a large array of properties. The ori-
entation of paper fibers, moisture content, thickness, and texture
can all affect printing on card stock. See page 23 for information on
the preferred weight for the grain direction of print materials.
When printing on card stock:
• Be sure to select Card Stock in the PA PE R TYPE menu in the
PA PER MENU (refer to the Administrator’s Guide for detailed
information about these settings).
• Be aware that preprinting, perforation, and creasing can sig-
nificantly affect the print quality and cause paper handling or
jamming problems.
• Avoid using card stock that may release hazardous emissions
when heated.
