Choosing Paper Standard office paper - You can use the printer's paper cassette to automatically feed most types of 16 to 24 lb. (60 g/m2to 90 g/m2) paper. This typically includes such paper as copier paper, memo sheets, cotton bond, and letterhead. If you feed paper manually or load it one sheet at a time through the paper cassette, you can use 16 to 42 lb. (60 g/m2 to 157 g/m2) paper. For best results, use paper made especially for laser printers. Paper made for plain-paper copiers is also a good choice. If you want to use less expensive paper, test it before regular use. Paper should be of good quality and relatively smooth. Also keep in mind that if the paper is textured or too rough, the printed output may not be as clear. Some letterheads use inks or dyes that may smear or come off when subjected to the high temperatures of the fuser. Try a few sheets before you print on letterhead or other special paper. Special paper-You can use colored paper as long as it meets the weight limits given above for standard office paper. Do not, however, use coated paper (paper to which a colored coating has been added). Labels - Use only labels designed for laser printers or plain-paper copiers in your printer. When printing labels, your best choice is to use the optional face-up output tray; this keeps the labels from curling or coming off the backing sheet. To prevent the adhesive from coming into contact with the printer parts, always use labels that completely cover the backing sheet so that there are no gaps between the individual labels. You should also test the label sheet for leaking adhesive by pressing a sheet of paper on top of a sheet of labels. If the paper sticks at all, do not use the labels. Paper Handling 4-3
