Choosing Paper and Print Media You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper, envelopes, labels, transparencies, card stocks, and so on. See "Print Media Specifications" on page A.3. To get the best possible print quality, use only high-quality copier-grade paper. When you choose print media, consider the following: • Desired outcome: The print media you choose should be appropriate for the project. • Size: You can use any print media that fits easily within the guides of the tray. • Weight: Your printer supports paper weights as follows: • 16-24 lb bond for the automatic input tray • 16-43 lb bond for the manual input tray • Brightness: Some papers are whiter than others and produce sharper, more vibrant images. • Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the paper affects how crisp the printing looks. Always test a sample of paper before purchasing large quantities. Warning! Using print media that does not conform to the specifications listed in the paper specifications can cause problems that may require service.
