Symptom Problem with Paper Solution Poor print quality or toner adhesion. Problems with feeding. Too moist, too rough, too smooth, or embossed; faulty paper lot. Try another kind of paper, between 100-250 Sheffield, 4-6% moisture content. Dropouts, jamming, curl. Stored improperly. Store paper flat in its moistureproof wrapping. Increased gray background shading. Too heavy. Use lighter paper. Excessive curl. Problems with feeding. Too moist, wrong grain direction or short-grain construction. Use long-grain paper. Print using the straightthrough ouput path. Jamming, damage to printer. Cutouts or perforations. Do not use paper with cutouts or perforations. Problems with feeding. Ragged edges. Use good quality paper. Note Do not use letterhead paper that is printed with low-temperature inks, such as those used in some types of thermography. Do not use raised letterhead. The printer uses heat and pressure to fuse toner to the paper. Make sure that any colored paper or preprinted forms use inks that are compatible with the printer temperature (392 °F or 200 °C for 0.1 second). EN Guidelines for using paper 91
