Samsung ML-6060S, ML-6060N manual Choosing Paper and Other Media

Choosing Paper and Other Media

You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper, envelopes, labels, transparencies, card stocks and so on. See “Paper Specifications” on page A.2. To get the best possible print quality, use only high-quality copier-grade paper.

When you choose print media, consider the followings:

•Desired outcome: The paper you choose should be appropriate for the project.

•Size: You can use any size paper that fits easily within the paper adjusters of the paper tray.

•Weight : Your printer supports paper weight as follows:

•16~28 lbs bond for Tray 1 or optional Tray 2

•16~53 lbs bond for Multi-Purpose Tray

•Brightness: Some papers are whiter than others and produce sharper, more vibrant images.

•Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the paper affects how crisp the printing looks on the paper.

•Opacity: Opacity refers to the degree to which printing on one side of the paper shows through the other side. Use paper high in opacity (or thicker paper) for two-sided (duplex) printing.

Always test a sample of paper before purchasing large quantities.

CAUTION: Using media that does not conform to the specification listed in the paper specification can cause problems that may require service. This service is not covered by the warranty or service agreements.
