Plain paper

This paper is normally used for copying and printing. Unlike inkjet plain paper or glossy paper, it is uncoated.

Inkjet plain paper

This extra-white plain paper makes the printed colours appear more vivid. Since it does not have an ink- absorbent coating, you can write on it and use it for photocopying, just like regular plain paper.

Glossy paper

This machine prints best on reduced-reflection glossy photo paper.

Paper for dye inks is not recommended because the machine's pigmented inks may not take properly to it or may smear or rub off. Glossy photo paper can be used in this machine provided it is compatible with pigmented inks.

Transparency film for equipment such as overhead projectors is designed for the pigmented inks used by the machine. Film for plain paper copiers cannot be used because it does not absorb ink. Film for dye inks is not recommended because the machine's pigmented inks may not take properly to it or may smear or rub off. Transparency film can be used in this machine provided it is compatible with pigmented inks. Envelopes
