Choosing Print Media

Paper

For best results, use paper that is smooth and of high quality, like copier type paper or paper with a Sheffield rating of 100-250.

Store paper in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use it. Keep it away from moisture or other conditions that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.

Preprinted forms must not scorch, melt, offset, or release hazardous emissions when heated to 200ºC (392ºF) for

0.1second.

Avoid printing on both sides of the paper or preprinted documents that have been in a photocopier.

Try paper before you buy it in quantity.
