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 a 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 which 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 only accepts print on one side.
Try using 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
thickness at the same time. This may cause a
paper jam.
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 a paper jam.
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.
