Selecting Print Media
Correct Paper Storage
It is important to store paper correctly prior to placing it in the printer, since improper storage
can cause frequent paper jams and poor print quality. Use the following guidelines when storing
paper for use in the printer:
■ Store reams of paper on a flat surface, and always store them stacked horizontally.
■ Store reams of paper in an area away from both direct sunlight and high humidity
■ Open sealed reams only when you are ready to load the paper into the paper tray, and
always close and seal partial reams of paper.
■ Do not stack partial reams of paper
Print Media Weight, Type, and Size
