It is recommended that a small sample (500 to 1000 sheets) of the special paper be
tested before production quantities are purchased. Testing small samples can give a
fairly good indication of what to expect in terms of print quality and toner adhesion;
however, only long term tests involving several thousand sheets can begin to provide
reliable data about characteristics like environmental changes, paper path reliability,
paper dust contamination, loose filler, etc. It is recommended that initial orders of
special supplies be limited to a 30-60 day supply until it has have proven to perform
well over a long period of time.
Preprinted Paper
It is very important to work closely with the paper supplier when designing and
ordering preprinted paper. To avoid problems with preprinted forms, observe the
following guidelines:
Forms must be printed with heat-resistant ink that will not melt, vaporize,
delaminate, or release hazardous emissions when subject to heat. Refer to “Paper
Fusing” on page C-5 for additional information.
Minimize the amount of ink used in printing. Avoid print designs that use large
quantities of ink. Perform screen printing if a large area needs to be printed.
