Guidelines for Special Paper and other
Media
Be sure to read any instructions that come with your special paper. These
instructions provide important information regarding how to achieve the
highest print quality with these papers.
It is recommended that you feed special paper types one sheet at a time.
For transparencies and glossy photo paper, follow these guidelines:
Let the printed sheets dry completely before storing them.
When a printed sheet has dried completely, cover the printed side with a
sheet of plain (not coated) paper before storing it; this is recommended
even if you place the sheets in a clear file or plastic holder.
Do not leave the film in the paper tray for long periods of time. Dust
and dirt may accumulate on the film resulting in spotty printing.
To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle transparency film and
coated paper carefully.
To avoid fading, do not expose the printed film to prolonged sunlight.
Store unused media flat. Do not remove papers from their protective
packaging until you are ready to use them.
Store unused media at temperatures between 59 and 86 degrees
Fahrenheit (15 to 30 degrees Centigrade). The relative humidity should
be between 10% and 70%.
If the print density of your page is very high, light paper stock may curl
slightly due to the large amount of ink. If you need to print dense
graphics, try printing on heavier stock.
Do not use thicker paper than meets the specifications for this machine.
Printing with a paper that is thick enough to come in contact with the
print head nozzles may damage the cartridge.
