Paper and envelope types
The manufacturer of this printer recommends the fol-
lowing guidelines when selecting paper and envelopes
for use in your printer:
• Paper and envelopes should be stored flat and
away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat
sources.

laser type paper with a Sheffield (smoothness)
rating of 250 or less. If in doubt, please ask your
paper supplier.

printers.

through the printer twice.

clasps.
• Do not use envelopes with self sealing flaps.
• Avoid using damaged or curled envelopes.
