Note for recording paper:
L We recommend that you test paper (especially
special sizes and types of paper) on the unit before
purchasing large quantities.
L Do not use the following types of paper:
– Paper with cotton and/or fiber content that is over
20 %, such as letterhead paper or paper used for
resumes
– Extremely smooth or shiny paper, or paper that is
highly textured
– Coated, damaged or wrinkled paper
– Paper with foreign objects attached, such as tabs
or staples
– Paper that has dust, lint or oil stains
– Paper that will melt, vaporize, discolor, scorch or
emit dangerous fumes near 200 °C (392 °F),
such as vellum paper. These materials may
transfer onto the fusing roller and cause damage.
– Moist paper
– Inkjet paper
L Some paper is designed to be printed on only one
side. Try printing on the other side of the paper if you
are not happy with the print quality, or if misfeeding
occurs.
L For proper paper feeding and best print quality, we
recommend using long-grained paper.
L Do not use paper of different types or thicknesses at
the same time. This may cause paper jams.
L Avoid double-sided printing.
L Do not use paper printed from this unit for double-
sided printing with other copiers or printers. This may
cause paper jams.
L To avoid curling, do not open paper packs until you
are ready to use the paper. Store unused paper in
the original packaging, in a cool and dry location.
L For customers who live in high humidity areas:
Please be sure to store paper in an air-conditioned
room at all times. If you print using moist paper, it
may cause paper jam.
1 Before inserting a stack of paper, fan the paper to
prevent paper jams.
2 Pull the tension plate forward (1).
3 Remove the paper tray cover (2).
