Table 3-7. Drilled paper
Description Drilled paper has two or more holes along one edge so it can be placed in a
ring binder or spiral bound. A plastic reinforcement strip is placed on the
drilled edge of some papers to prevent tearing from the holes.
Selection tips • Most drilled papers with common hole patterns will run reliably. Common
hole patterns include, 3-hole standard, 7-hole, European din 4-hole,
Swedish 4-hole, Norwegian 6-hole.
• Some hole configurations, especially holes that are close to the edge of
the sheet, will cause frequent jams. Test a small quantity before making
a large purchase.
• Sheets should not stick together at the holes (hole welding caused by a
dull drill).
• Paper plugs should not be present in the holes.
CAUTION: Running drilled paper containing paper plugs can damage the
photoreceptor.
Storage tips Follow general guidelines in Chapter 2, Managing your paper supply.
Usage tips • Load drilled paper with the holes on the lead edge (left side) of the paper
tray. Paper handling will be best when holes are loaded at the trail edge.
NOTE: When feeding tab stock and drilled stock in the same job, the drilled
stock must be loaded with the holes on the leading edge, not the trail edge,
so that the stock orientation is the same as for the tab stock.
• Load reinforced paper with the plastic strip facing down.
