Selecting Print Materials

When you choose print materials, consider the following:

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

•Weight: 16 ~ 24 lb (60 to 90 g/m2 bond) for the tray with multi-pages feeding, and 16 ~ 43 lb (60 to 165 g/m2 bond) for the manual tray and tray with single page feeding.

•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.

CAUTION: Using print materials that dose not conform to the specifications listed on page 10.2 may cause problems that may require service. This service is not covered by the warranty or service agreements.
