Paper and specialty media guidelines 62

Preprinted papers such as letterhead must be able to withstand temperatures up to 190°C (374°F) without melting or releasing hazardous emissions.

Storing paper

Use these paper storage guidelines to help avoid jams and uneven print 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 relative 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.

The following tables provide information on standard and optional paper input sources and the types of paper they support.
