Notes on storing and handling paper

Storing unused paper

Store unused paper at a temperature below 30°C (86°F) in a dry location that is not exposed to direct sunlight.

Do not store unused paper near volatile liquids or allow the paper to contact any organic volatile liquid, cellophane tape, or any compound of vinyl chloride.

Loading paper

Handle the paper carefully when loading to avoid touching the printing surface with your fingers. Perspiration or oil from you hands could cause pictures to blur.

After removing the label from the leading edge of the paper, pull the paper out 15~20 cm (about 6~8 in.) before printing. Label adhesive remaining on the paper could spoil a picture.

Storing printouts

To prevent printouts from fading or changing color, store them in a cool, dry location where the temperature is not higher than 30°C (86°F).

Store printouts in a polypropylene pouch or between sheets of paper that contain no plastic.

Do not store printouts where they will be exposed to direct sunlight or high humidity.

Do not store printouts near volatile liquids or allow the prints to contact any organic volatile liquid, cellophane tape, or any compound of vinyl chloride.

To prevent fading, do not stack printouts on or under a diazo copy sheet.

To mount printouts on another sheet of paper, use double-sides tape or a water base adhesive.

Do not incinerate waste printer paper.
