Paper Specifications

Overview

Your machine accepts a variety of print materials, such as cut-sheet paper, including up to 100% recycled fiber content paper, envelopes, labels, transparencies, and custom-size paper. Properties, such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture content, are important factors affecting the machine’s performance and the output quality. Paper that does not meet the guidelines outlined in this user’s guide can cause the following problems:

•Poor print quality

•Increased paper jams

•Premature wear on the machine.

NOTES:

•Some paper may meet all of the guidelines in this guide and still not produce satisfactory results. This may be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and humidity levels or other variables over which Samsung has no control.

•Before purchasing large quantities of paper, insure the paper meets the requirements specified in this user’s guide.

CAUTION: Using paper that does not meet these specifications may cause problems, requiring repairs. These repairs are not covered by the Samsung warranty or service agreements.
