Paper Guidelines When selecting or loading paper, please remember the following: ❍ Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause paper jams and poor print quality. ❍ Use cut-sheet paper only. You cannot use multipart paper. ❍ When using graph paper, the lines may not match because the 1/6-inch line spacing of the printer is slightly less than that of graph paper. ❍ If the print density of your page is very high, light paper stock may curl slightly due to the large amount of ink. If you need to print dense graphics, try printing on heavier stock. You can also try lowering the brightness setting on the Color dialog. ❍ Do not use thicker paper than meets the specifications for this printer. Printing with a paper that is thick enough to come in contact with the print head nozzles may damage the BJ cartridge.

The printer driver tells the computer what kind of a printer you are using. The printer driver also controls the various settings, such as print quality and paper type.

Paper Guidelines
When selecting or loading paper, please remember the following:
Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can
cause paper jams and poor print quality.
Use cut-sheet paper only.You cannot use multipart paper.
When using graph paper, the lines may not match because the
1/6-inch line spacing of the printer is slightly less than that of
graph paper.
If the print density of your page is very high, light paper stock may
curl slightly due to the large amount of ink. If you need to print
dense graphics, try printing on heavier stock. You can also try
lowering the brightness setting on the Color dialog.
Do not use thicker paper than meets the specifications for this
printer. Printing with a paper that is thick enough to come in
contact with the print head nozzles may damage the BJ cartridge.
Understanding the Printer Driver
Before you can use any type of printer with your computer, you must
install a printer driver. The printer driver tells the computer what kind
of a printer you are using. The printer driver also controls the various
settings, such as print quality and paper type. You define these settings
within the printer driver, and the printer driver then communicates the
settings to both the computer and the printer.
You must install the MultiPASS Printer Driver before you can use the
MultiPASS as a printer for your computer. If you followed the
instructions in your
Quick Start Guide
, you have already installed the
necessary software. If not, see your
Quick Start Guide
for details on how
to install this software.
