Storing paper

Use these paper storage guidelines to help avoid jams and uneven pr int quality:
•For best results, store paper where the temperature is 21 °C (70°F) and the relative humidity is 40%. Most label
manufacturers recommend printing in a temperature range of 18 to 24°C (65 to 75°F) with relativ e humidity between
40 and 60%.
•Store paper in cartons when possible, on a pallet or shelf, rather than on the floor.
•Store individual packages on a flat surface.
•Do not store anything on top of individual paper packages.
