Thick stock
Paper thicker than 90 g/m2 (24 lb bond) is referred to as thick stock. Test all
thick stock to ensure acceptable performance and to ensure that the image
does not shift.
DO NOT use thick stock that is
Mixed with any other media in the trays (as this will cause misfeeds)
Envelopes
Print on the front (address) side only. Some parts of the envelope consist of
three layers of paper—the front, back, and flap. Anything printed in these lay-
ered regions may be lost or faded.
Use envelopes that are
Common office envelopes with diagonal joints, sharp folds and edges,
and ordinary gummed flaps
" Because the envelopes pass through heated rollers, the gummed
area on the flaps may seal. Using envelopes with emulsion-based
glue avoids this problem.
