MEDIA RECOMMENDATIONS
We recommend the following guidelines when selecting media for
use in this printer:
Paper
• For recommended papers see your Handy Reference Guide.
• Paper should be stored flat and away from moisture, direct
sunlight and heat sources.
• Don’t use damp, damaged or curled paper.
• The use of heavily laid or textured paper will seriously affect
the life of the image drum and give poor print quality.
• Print quality can be improved by changing the media
setting to ‘Ultra Heavy.’ However, this will reduce the output
speed and prevent the use of the duplex option.
• Don’t use very smooth, shiny or glossy paper.
• Don’t use heavily embossed headed paper, very rough
paper or paper that has a large grain difference between
the two sides.
• Don’t use paper with perforations, cut-outs or ragged
edges.
• Don’t use carbon paper, NCR paper, photosensitive paper,
pressure sensitive paper or thermal transfer paper.
• Don’t use recycled paper.
CAUTION
Print media must be able to withstand 446°F (230°C) for 0.2
second.
