Paper properties that affect paper handling

The following paper properties affect how well the production system runs. You can maximize the productivity of your printer by choosing high quality papers and managing the moisture content.

Moisture content

Paper must be manufactured with the proper moisture content for printing.

Proper moisture level can be maintained by purchasing paper in moisture-proof packaging and leaving it in its original packaging until you are ready to use it.

For more information, refer to the Ordering guidelines for paper and Electrical properties and paper handling sections of this guide.

Grain

During the paper making process, most of the paper fibers align parallel to each other. When sheets are cut, they are either grain- long (fibers are parallel to the longer dimension of the sheet) or grain-short (fibers are parallel to the shorter dimension of the sheet).

Grain is an important consideration when sheets will be folded. Xerox recommends using paper that will allow you to fold with the grain. Folding printed sheets against the grain will cause paper and paper coating to crack and reveal more of the paper color at the fold.

The grain direction may be specified on the paper packaging.

•Some manufacturers add the words “long” or “short” to the label to indicate paper grain.

•LG and SG are common abbreviations for long grain and short grain.

–In Europe, A3SG indicates A3 size paper with short grain.

–A4LG indicates A4 size paper with long grain.

•Most manufacturers in North America underline the paper dimension that corresponds to the grain.

•It is also common in North America to write the grain dimension as the second of the two dimensions (dimension x grain dimension).

Grain direction is also important when using lightweight and heavyweight papers. Load lightweight papers into paper trays with the grain parallel to the front (outboard) edge of the tray to increase stiffness. Load heavyweight papers with the grain parallel
