Paper
For highest image quality, follow these paper storage instructions:
Store opened paper at temperatures below 77_F (25_C). Avoid exposure to temperatures higher than 100_F (38_C).
Relative humidity level for storing and using paper should be between 40% and 60%. Relative humidity lower than 20% or higher than 76% should be avoided even for short periods of time. Print paper can tolerate a relative humidity between 20% and 40% and between 60% and 76% for up to a few hours without causing the paper to curl.
High relative humidity tends to cause paper to curl toward the image side of the paper. Low relative humidity tends to cause paper to curl away from the image side of the paper. Low relative humidity also tends to increase static attraction of dust and dirt.
Keep the bottom stiffener board in place when handling stacks of paper to avoid fingerprints on the printing surface.
Avoid storing loose stacks of paper out of its wrapper.
Do not use wet or damaged stock.
Keep the lid on the paper tray and the paper tray inserted in the printer to protect the paper from exposure to light and dust or dirt.
