Paper Selection Guidelines
The print quality and feeding reliability you get with your printer can vary depending on the paper source you use and the type and size of the print material. Using sizes other than those listed in the separate Supplies/Options Guide, or using paper not recommended for your printer can result in paper jams and print quality problems.
When choosing paper for your printer, consider the weight, fiber content, and color of the paper. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to determine whether the paper you’ve chosen is acceptable for inkjet printers.
To avoid paper jams or poor print quality:
•Always use new, undamaged paper.
•Do not use paper that you have cut or trimmed yourself.
•Do not mix paper sizes, weights, or types in the same paper source. Mixing print materials results in paper jams.
Always print samples on the paper you are considering before buying large quantities.
