A-2 XEROX DOCUPRINT 96/4635/180 IPS INSTALLATION PLANNING GUIDE
Use paper within these parameters:
• Lightest: 16-pound or 65 gsm bond
• Heaviest: 110-pound or 200-gsm index.
Note: It is recommended that you use 24-pound paper with MICR
applications, or paper specified by your local banking regulatory
authority.
Characteristics The paper stock should have the following characteristics:
• Low moisture content (a paper-to-moisture ratio below 5.7
percent). Paper with higher moisture content may curl and jam.
• Smooth surface
• Moisture-resistant wrapping
• No defects (bent edges, uneven surfaces)
• Grain long (parallel with the long side of paper).
Paper is usually fed into the printer with the long side as the
leading edge (except 11 by 17-inch or A3 paper). When you
purchase paper, buy long-grain paper. Make sure the grain is
parallel with the long side (long-grain) for the most reliable
feeding and stacking.
Special stocks Following are some guidelines for choosing and using special
materials:
• Labels — Must be the type designed for high-speed printers
and must meet the specifications described in the section
above. Loading instructions are printed on all paper trays.
Use only the processor feeding trays (trays 1 and 2) for labels.
Load labels in the tray with the label side up.
You can direct printed labels to any output tray. Be sure the
printed labels are stacked face up in the output tray, to avoid ink
offsetting and jams due to delamination.
• Transparencies — Must be the type designed for high-speed
printers and must meet the specifications described in the
section above. Loading instructions are printed on all paper
trays.
Load transparencies with the opaque strip to the right. All
printed transparencies are delivered to the sample tray.
As long as they meet your printer’s paper specifications, you
can also use:
• Tinted paper — Available in a variety of colors, it has many
uses, including calling attention to certain printed material,
separating special sections, or dividing chapters of a report.
• Preprinted paper — May be letterhead, forms, or logos.
• Predrilled paper — Has a varying number of holes for use in
binders or binder rings. Before loading predrilled paper, fan it to
remove loose plugs that could cause paper jams. Load
predrilled paper in the printer with holes to the right.
