Paper Selection | Samsung SCX-1150F manual

Paper Selection

One of the most important things you can do to assure the best possible printing performance of your product is to select the correct paper. Your product produces letter quality print on most plain bond paper, including cotton bond and photocopying paper; it does not require special ink jet paper. However, the print quality varies with different paper types. Be sure to test a type of paper before you purchase a large quantity.

Your printer supports the following types of paper. Select the right paper for the job you intend to use it for.

•Plain Paper

The product supports paper sizes of letter, legal, and A4 in portrait orientation. You can use regular copier paper, cotton bond papers, and typical letterhead. Always use paper without curls, folds, staples, or damaged edges.

•Coated paper

Paper developed for high quality printing with minimal or no smearing or running when in contact with water or damp surfaces.

•Glossy/Photo Paper

A high gloss, thicker paper that produces the look and feel of a photograph. Use this paper to produce photo-realistic prints from your printer.

•Transparency

Your transparencies should be products designed for use in Ink Jet products, with excellent contrast, sharpness, and colour quality. The transparency is placed in the product with the image side up.

•Iron-on Transfer

Use inkjet T-shirt transfers to create and personalize T-shirts, sweatshirts, aprons, tablecloths, napkins, tote bags, and anything else your imagination allows! Use on any cotton or cotton/poly blend fabric. Your image is printed in mirror image so when you iron it onto the T-shirt, the image is viewed correctly.

•Greeting Card Stock

You can create greeting cards, business cards, invitations, announcements, and more.
