Tips by stock type
Recycled paper
Usage tips • Load preprinted letterhead stock with the letterhead facing up and
against the inboard (back) edge. The correct orientation is shown on the
paper loading label inside the feeder tray.
• If preprinted sheets are trimmed prior to being imaged on the Xerox
Nuvera, vacuum or brush the edges to remove debris in addition to
fanning the sheets.
• To avoid registration problems due to non-uniform sheet cut, use the
same sheet orientation (outboard and lead edge) on the Xerox Nuvera
that was used on the offset press.
• Preprinted sheets must be run uncollated. All sheets in a single paper
tray must contain the same preprinted image.
Table 3-17. Recycled paper
Description Recycled papers contain paper that was returned from consumers for
recycling. Most recycled papers are made from a combination of new pulp,
waste from the paper-making process and post-consumer waste paper,
which can contain adhesives and inks that are difficult to remove. Recycled
papers are less uniform in content and quality than papers made entirely
from virgin fibers.
Selection tips • Xerox recycled papers that are recommended for the Xerox Nuvera
press offer the best paper handling performance and image quality
available. They undergo extensive screening procedures to minimize
the amount of inks and plastic particles.
• If you want to use non-Xerox brands of recycled papers, test a small
quantity before making a large purchase.
Storage tips Follow general guidelines in Chapter 2, Managing your paper supply.
Usage tips Impurities in recycled paper may cause spots on the photoreceptor and
machine contamination.
