| Colored paper |
| Colored paper should be of the same high quality as white |
| xerographic paper. Pigments used must be able to withstand the |
| printer’s fusing temperature of 190° C (374° F) for 0.1 second without |
| deterioration. Do not use paper with a colored coating that was added |
| after the paper was produced. |
| The printer creates colors by printing patterns of dots, overlaying and |
| varying their spacing to produce various colors. Varying the shade or |
| color of your paper will affect the shades of your printed colors. |

Note | Envelopes can only be printed from Tray 1. |
| recommends configuring Tray 1 as a cassette and setting the tray’s |
| media size to the specific envelope size. See “Loading envelopes into |
| Tray 1” on page 80. |
| Adhering to the following guidelines will help ensure proper printing of |
| |
| envelopes and help prevent printer jams: |
| ● Do not load more than 10 envelopes into Tray 1. |
| ● The weight rating of envelopes should not exceed |
| 90 g/m2 (24 lb bond). |
| ● Envelopes should be flat. |
| ● Do not use envelopes with windows or clasps. |
| ● Envelopes must not be wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged. |
| ● Envelopes with |
| can withstand the heat and pressures of the printer’s fusing |
| process. |
| ● Envelopes should be loaded with the flaps facing away from the |
| printer and toward the right side of the printer. |
