Guidelines for Using Paper

For best results, use conventional 90 g/m2 (24 lb) paper. Make sure the paper is of good quality, and free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles, voids, and curled or bent edges.

If you are unsure of what type of paper you are loading (such as bond or recycled), check the label on the package of the paper.

The following problems with paper cause print quality deviations, jamming, or even damage to the printer.

Notes:

Do not use letterhead paper that is printed with low-temperature inks, such as those used in some types of thermography.

Do not use raised or embossed letterhead.

The printer uses heat and pressure to fuse toner to the paper. Make sure that any colored paper or preprinted forms use inks that are compatible with this fusing temperature (200 °C or 392 °F for 0.1 second).
