containing impurities

•Impurities– Impurities in the paper-making process can leave tiny specks in some paper stocks which may result in undesirable marks or spots on the image of your copy or print. (This is especially true with many recycled papers since some impurities may not be removed in the recycling process.)

Hint: The specks in recycled papers may interfere with some images and fine type in documents. Although Xerox is a supporter of recycled papers, we recommend non-recycled papers when copying or printing documents containing high resolution photographs or fine type.
