Appendix A: Selecting Print Media
Selecting Paper and Media
Your SuperScript 870 printer supports a wide
variety of print media.
Choosing quality paper is your best bet for
avoiding many of the output problems common
to heat-intensive printing. It is the most effective
measure you can take to achieve consistently
good results from your printer.
Although we do not endorse particular
manufacturers, this chapter mentions products
that have consistently demonstrated high
quality. This chapter shows you how to
recognize quality media products and gives
detailed specifications for print materials.
Recommended handling and storage guidelines
are also given.
Note:
Because we cannot control the
quality or manufacturing of your selected
media, we cannot warrant the use or
results of any specific media with the
SuperScript 870 printer.
You must judge the quality and performance of
any paper. We strongly recommend that you test
any paper for compatibility with your Super-
Script 870 printer before you make a large
purchase.
Note the following media guidelines.
Check that the media meets all specifications
noted in this chapter.
Order a small quantity to test with your
printer and your work environment. Some
paper vendors offer print quality guarantees
to ensure that the output meets a predeter-
mined standard when used with laser
printers. If you do not like the paper, you may
be able to return it for another type — but test
that one, too.
Tell the supplies buyer, the prospective seller,
and commercial letterhead printer that you are
using this media in a laser printer.
