CAUTION

DO NOT use ink jet paper because it may cause a paper jam or damage your printer.

If you use paper that is not recommended, a paper jam or misfeed may occur in the printer.

Note

•Preprinted paper must use ink that can withstand the temperature of the printer's fusing process (200 degrees centigrade).

•If you use bond paper, paper having a rough surface or paper that is wrinkled or creased, the paper may exhibit degraded performance.

Especially when paper that satisties the conditions mentioned above is not available in your country, we recommend testing various papers before purchasing large quantities.
