Appendix Special Paper Other Paper Specifications Porosity: The density of the paper fibers. Stiffness: Paper must be stiff enough or it may buckle in the machine, causing jams. Curl: Most paper naturally tends to curl in one direction after the package is opened. When paper passes through the fixing unit, it curls upward slightly. To deliver flat printouts, load the paper so that the curl faces towards the bottom of the paper tray. Static electricity: During the printing process, paper is electrostatically charged so that the toner adheres. Choose paper that can be discharged quickly so that copies do not cling together. Whiteness: The printed page contrast varies depending on the whiteness of the paper. Use whiter paper for sharper, brighter copies. Quality: Machine problems may occur if sheet sizes are not uniform or if corners are not square, edges are rough, sheets are uncut, or edges or corners are crushed. In order to prevent these problems, be especially careful when cutting paper yourself. Packaging: Choose paper that is properly packaged and stacked in boxes. Ideally, the packaging itself should have been treated with a coating to inhibit moisture. Specially treated paper: Use of the following paper types is not recommended, even if they conform to basic specifications. Before using these kinds of paper, purchase a small amount first for testing purposes. • Glossy paper • Watermarked paper • Paper with an uneven surface • Perforated paper This section describes printing onto special paper and print media. The following paper and media can be used. • Overhead transparencies • Preprinted paper • Bond paper • Recycled paper • Thin paper (from 60 g/m2 to 64 g/m2 or less) • Letterhead • Colored paper • Prepunched paper • Envelopes • Postcards • Thick paper (from 106 g/m2 to 220 g/m2 or less) • Label paper • Coated paper • Rough paper • High Quality paper Choose products for these kinds of paper and media that are specifically designed for use in copiers or page printers (such as laser printers).
