Paper, envelope types, transparencies and adhesive labels
We recommend the following guidelines when selecting paper and envelopes for use in this printer:
>All paper and envelopes should be stored flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat sources.
>Use envelopes designed for use in laser type printers.
>The use of heavily laid or textured paper will seriously impact on the life of the image drum and give poor print quality. Print quality can be improved by changing the media setting to ‘Ultra Heavy’. However, this will reduce the output speed and prevent the use of the duplex option.
>Don’t use very smooth, shiny or glossy paper.
>Don’t use heavily embossed headed paper, very rough paper or paper that has a large grain difference between the two sides.
>Don’t use paper with perforations,
>Don’t use envelopes with windows or metal clasps.
>Don’t use envelopes with self sealing flaps.
>Don’t use damp, damaged or curled paper and envelopes.
>Don’t use carbon paper, NCR paper, photosensitive paper, pressure sensitive paper or thermal transfer paper.
>Media must be designed for use in colour laser printers and photocopiers.
>Must be able to withstand 200°C for 0.1 sec.
>Labels should cover entire carrier sheet.
>Carrier sheet or adhesive must not be exposed to any part of the printer.
