USAGE GUIDELINES FOR XEROX COLOR COPIERS AND PRINTERS

Coated Papers

Contact your Xerox representative or visit the Xerox website for the current list of recommended materials for your copier/printer.

Description and expectations

Coated papers have binders, adhesives, and pigments applied to their surfaces on one or both sides. As compared to the benchmark

Color Xpressions 24 lb (90 g/m2) paper, coated papers provide improved image gloss but will generally cause an increase in jams.

Two-sided copying or printing of coated papers may not be recommended for your copier/printer because of more frequent jams and likely image quality/offsetting problems. Contact your Xerox representative for the current list of recommended materials for your copier/printer.

Coated papers must be run with the curl side of the paper up and the grain direction perpendicular to the lead edge.

CAUTION: Running coated papers with the grain direction parallel to the lead edge, or with the curl side down can cause pressure roll wrap jams requiring a service call.

CAUTION: Refer to the user guide for your copier/printer for the maximum coated paper weight that can be run. Failure to adhere to recommended weights may result in damage to the machine that will require a service call.
