Test the paper first if you plan to use it in environments with humidity of less than 20% or greater than 80%. Also test paper that you plan to use at high humidity to ensure satisfactory feeding and handling, and test paper to be used at low humidity to determine if static buildup must be eliminated for proper paper stacking.
