Getting Started

About Paper

Thermal paper is available in a variety of sizes. Refer to Chapter 3, Supplies, for more information about image sizes, storage recommendations, and catalog numbers.

The paper looks and feels like photographic paper, but it is not light sensitive. The back of this paper is printed with a logo to make it easy to tell which side to put facedown in the tray.

Handling

When handling paper, follow these guidelines:

Hold paper by the edges to avoid fingerprints, which reduce print quality.

Handle the package of paper with the cardboard stiffener sheets in place.

Loading

The paper tray adjusts to the size of the paper you want to load. Be sure not to force paper that is too long or wide into the tray. Follow the instructions below to adjust the tray to the proper size and to load the paper.

NOTE: Although other Kodak paper trays may fit your printer, you should only use trays designed for the 8657 Printer. Using other trays may cause paper jams, especially when printing images that

do not take up the maximum image area of the receiver that is loaded in the tray.

Contact your printer dealer if you need a tray in a size other than the one supplied with the printer. (Refer to Chapter 3, Supplies, for catalog numbers.)
