RECOMMENDATIONS
Your MFP will handle a variety of print media, including a range of paper weights and sizes.
This section provides general advice on choice of media, and explains how to use each type.
The best performance will be obtained when using standard 75~90g/m² paper designed
for use in copiers and laser printers.
Use of heavily embossed or very rough textured paper is not recommended.
Pre-printed stationery can be used, but the ink must not offset when exposed to the high
fuser temperatures used in the printing process.

ASSETTE

TRAYS

If you have identical paper stock loaded in another tray (2nd tray if you have one, or multi
purpose tray) you have the printer automatically switch to the other tray when the current
tray runs out of paper. When printing from Windows applications, this function is enabled
in the driver settings. When printing from other systems, this function is enabled in the
Print Menu. (See “Auto Tray Switch:” on page 149.)
CAUTION!
Envelopes should be free from twist, curl or other deformations.
They should also be of the rectangular flap type, with glue that
remains intact when subjected to hot roll pressure fusing used in
this type of printer. Window envelopes are not suitable.
CAUTION!
Labels should also be of the type recommended for use in copiers
and laser printers, in which the base carrier page is entirely
covered by labels. Other types of label stock may damage the
printer due to the labels peeling off during the printing process.
