Splicing Paper of the Same Width
When the loaded paper runs out during a print job, you can splice paper of the same or
different width. This section describes the procedure for splicing paper of the same width and
weight. Follow the precautions as illustrated below.
1. Place the upstream (Printer 1) paper on top of the downstream (Printer 2) paper.
2. In parallel with the paper direction, put pieces of splicing tape at three positions (center
and both edges).
3. Place a strip of splicing tape all across the paper width.
a. Xerox recommended splicing tape is Permacel P781-19mm-55mm.
b. It is acceptable to use a few short pieces of splicing tape joined together.
c. Paper weight should be 64 gsm or above.
