Handling and using special
paper
The machine is designed to work well with
most types of xerographic and bond paper.
However, some paper variables may have an
effect on print quality or handling reliability.
Always test samples of paper before
purchasing to ensure desirable performance.
Store paper in its original packaging and keep
it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from
moisture, direct sunlight and heat.
Some important guidelines when selecting
paper are:
Your supplier should be informed that the
paper or envelopes will be used in a colour
laser machine.
Preprinted paper must use inks that can
withstand the temperature of the
machine's fusing process (200 degrees
centigrade for a period of 0.1 seconds).
If you have selected a cotton bond paper,
paper having a rough surface, such as
cockle or laid finished paper or paper that
is wrinkled or puckered, the paper may
exhibit degraded performance.
