Notes on Handling Print Media

When storing the print media, put the print media back in its original packaging and avoid locations that are exposed to direct sunlight or that are subject to high temperatures or humidity. To avoid curling or wrinkling the paper, store it in a level place.

With the following media, remove each printed sheet from the paper output tray as it is ejected, and do not touch the print side until the ink is dry. Guidelines on how long ink takes to dry on each media are as follows.

Artist Canvas

About 15 minutes

Back Print Film

About 15 minutes

Glossy Photo Cards

About 2 minutes

Glossy Photo Paper

About 2 minutes

High Gloss Film

About 2 minutes

Magnet Sheets

About 30 minutes

Transparencies

When large amounts of ink are being used, certain types of media may curl during printing. If this occurs, move the paper thickness lever to the right. Such types of media are most suited for printing of text, and should not be used for printing documents that consist mainly of graphics or photographs.
