Guidelines to select the print media
Print media that does not meet the guidelines outlined in this user’s guide may cause the following problems:

uality
• Increased paper jams
• Premature wear
on the machine.
Properties, such as weight, composition, gr

performance and the output quality. When you choose print materials, consider the following:
• The type, size and weight of the pr
int media for your machine are described in print media specifications (See "Print
media specifications" on page 71).
• Desir

ropriate for your project.
• Brightness: Some pr
int media are whiter than others and produce sharper, more vibrant images.
• Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the pr
int media affects how crisp the printing looks on the paper.
• Some print media may meet all of the guidelines in this section and still not produce satisfactory results. This
may be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and humidity levels, or other variables over
which cannot be controlled.
• Before purchasing large quantities of print media, ensure that it meets the requirements specified in this user’s
guide.
Using print media that does not meet these specifications may cause problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are
not covered by the warranty or service agreements.
