Paper
Note:
Use recycled paper, labels, envelopes, postcards, overlapping
forms, and continuous forms with labels only under normal
temperature and humidity conditions as follows:
Temperature 59° to 77°F (15° to 25°C)
Humidity 20% to 60% RH
For continuous multi-part forms:
❏ The form sheets of continuous multi-part forms should be
securely joined together along the left and right edges by
crimping or spot-gluing. For the best printing quality, use
multi-part forms joined with spot-gluing.
❏ When using crimped multi-part forms, note the following:
❏ Crimping should be pressed in from the original sheet
side and go completely through all copy sheets.
❏ Crimping should be double-sided; using single-sided
crimping may cause the printer to jam.
❏ Never use continuous multi-part forms that are joined with
metal staples or bar-gluing.
❏ The thickness of the folding part when extended should be
the same as or less than the total thickness.
❏ The binding area should be flat and should have no creases.
❏ The sprocket holes of all sheets in the form should be
aligned properly.
❏ The binding position should be outside the printable area.
