Unsupported Types of Paper

Avoid using the following paper as they are not supported by this machine.

Paper meant for an ink-jet printer

Bent, folded, or creased paper

Curled or twisted paper

Torn paper

Wrinkled paper

Damp paper

Dirty or damaged paper

Paper that is dry enough to emit static electricity

Paper that has already been printed onto, except a preprinted letterhead.

Malfunctions are especially likely when using paper printed on by other than a laser printer (e.g. monochrome and color copiers, ink-jet printers, etc.)

Special paper, such as thermal paper, aluminum foil, carbon paper and conductive paper

Paper that is heavier or lighter than the specified limitations

Paper with windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossing

Adhesive label paper on which the adhesive under-layer or base paper is exposed

Paper with clips or staples

Do not use ink-jet printer paper because it may stick to the fusing unit and cause a paper jam.

Do not load OHP transparencies. Load translucent media only.

Do not use paper that has already been printed onto by other printers.

When loading paper, take care not to touch the surface of the paper.

Even supported types of paper may cause paper jams or malfunctions if the paper is not in good condition.
