Print Material Guidelines Selecting the appropriate print material (paper, transparencies, envelopes, labels, and card stock) for your printer helps you avoid printing problems. Note: For detailed information about print material characteristics, refer to the Card Stock & Label Guide on the CD that comes with your printer. The following sections contain guidelines for choosing the correct print material for your printer. Paper For the best print quality, use 75 g/m2 (20 lb) xerographic, grain long paper. Try a sample of any paper you are considering using with the printer before buying large quantities. When loading paper, note the recommended print side on the paper package, and load paper accordingly. See "Loading Print Material" on page 124 for detailed loading instructions. The following papers are not recommended for use with your printer: • Paper with a rough or heavily textured surface • Coated papers, such as erasable bond • Preprinted papers manufactured with chemicals that may contaminate the printer • Multiple-part forms • Synthetic papers • Thermal papers • Recycled paper having a weight less than 75 g/m2 (20 lb) Letterhead Preprinted papers such as letterhead must be able to withstand temperatures up to 200°C (392°F) without melting or releasing hazardous emissions. Use inks that are not affected by the resin in toner or the silicone in the fuser. Inks that are oxidation-set or oil-based should meet these requirements; latex inks might not. 118 Chapter 4: Using Print Materials
