Handling Paper Special Paper Stiffness: Limp paper may buckle in the machine, resulting in paper jams. Curl: Most paper naturally tends to curl one way if left unpacked. When paper passes through the fixing unit, it curls upward a little. To produce flat printouts, load the paper so that the upward pressure from the machine can correct their curling. Electrostatic discharge: During the printing process the paper is electrostatically charged to attract the toner. The paper must be able to release this charge so that printed sheets do not cling together in the Output Tray. Whiteness: The contrast of the printed page depends on the whiteness of the paper. Whiter paper provides a sharper, brighter appearance. Quality control: Uneven sheet size, corners that are not square, ragged edges, welded (uncut) sheets, and crushed edges and corners can cause the machine to malfunction in various ways. A quality paper supplier should take considerable care to ensure that these problems do not occur. Packaging: Paper should be packed in a sturdy carton to protect it from damage during transport. Quality paper obtained from a reputable supplier is usually correctly packaged. The following types of special paper can be used: Paper type to be used Paper type to be selected Thin paper (60 to 64 g/m²) Vellum Thick paper (90 to 220 g/m²) Thick Colored paper Color Recycled paper Recycled Overhead projector transparencies Transparency Postcards Cardstock Envelopes Envelope Label Labels Use paper that is sold specifically for use with copiers or printers (heatfusing type). When using transparencies, labels, thin paper, envelopes, postcards, or thick paper, feed the paper from the MP Tray. Since the composition and quality of special paper vary considerably, special paper is more likely than white bond paper to give trouble during printing. No liability will be assumed if moisture and so forth given off during printing on special paper causes harm to the machine or operator. ADVANCED OPERATION GUIDE 1-7
