Paper recommendations
Your printer will handle a variety of print media, including a range of
paper weights and sizes, including envelopes. 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 20~ 24
lb. (75~90 g/m²) paper designed for use in copiers and laser printers.
Suitable types are:
•Hammermill® Laser Printer Radiant White, 24 lb. US
Bond (90 g/m²)
•Xerox® 4024, 20 lb. US Bond (75 g/m²)
•Oki® 52206101 Bright White Proofing Paper, 32 lb. US
Bond (120 g/m2)
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.
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.
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. Suitable types are:
• Avery 5161 White Laser Label (Letter size)
• Avery 7162, 7664, 7666 White Laser Labels (size A4).
