Card stock • Preprinting, perforation, and creasing can significantly affect the print quality and cause media handling or jamming problems. • Avoid using card stock that may release hazardous emissions when heated. • Do not use preprinted card stock manufactured with chemicals that may contaminate the printer. Preprinting introduces semi-liquid and volatile components into the printer. • Use card stock with a maximum weight of 163 g/m2 and a minimum size of 76 x 127 mm (3 x 5 in.). Tips on storing print media and supplies Storing paper Use the following guidelines to avoid paper feeding problems and uneven print quality. • Store paper in an environment where the temperature is approximately 21°C (70°F) and the relative humidity is 40%. • Store cartons of paper on a pallet or shelf rather than directly on the floor. • If you store individual packages of paper out of the original carton, make sure they rest on a flat surface so the edges do not buckle, curl, or become damaged. • Do not place anything on top of paper packages. Storing supplies Choose a cool, clean storage area for your printer supplies. Store supplies right side up in their original packaging until you are ready to use them. Do not expose supplies to: • Direct sunlight • Temperatures above 35°C (95°F) • High humidity (above 80%) • Salty air • Corrosive gases • Heavy dust Print media tasks and tips 18
