Preprinted papers such as letterhead must be able to withstand temperatures of up to 180°C (356°F)
without melting or releasing hazardous emissions. Use inks that are not affected by the resin in toner
or the silicone in the fuser. Inks that are oxidation-set or oil-based should meet these requirements.
