4 Using Print Materials This chapter will help you understand the types of paper you can use with your printer and how to properly load paper in the different paper trays for the best print quality. This chapter includes: • Choosing Paper and Other Materials • Loading Paper • Printing on Special Print Materials Choosing Paper and Other Materials You can print on a variety of print materials, such as plain paper, envelopes, labels, card stock, and so on. See "Printing on Special Print Materials" on page 4.4. To get the best possible print quality, use only high-quality, copier-grade paper. When you choose print materials, consider the following: • Desired outcome: The paper you choose should be appropriate for the project. • Size: You can use any size paper that fits easily within the paper adjusters of the paper tray. • Weight: Your printer supports paper weights as follows: -20~24lbs (75~90g/m2) bond for Tray1 or optional Tray2 -20~43lbs (75~163g/m2) bond for the Multi-purpose 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 on the paper. CAUTION: Using a material that does not conform to the specifications listed on page 10.3 can cause problems that may require service. This service will not be covered by the warranty or service agreements.

Guidelines for Paper and Special Materials When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special materials, keep these guidelines in mind: • 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 multi-part paper. • Use only high-quality, copier grade paper for the best print quality. • Do not use paper with irregularities, such as tabs or staples. • Do not attempt to load any tray while printing, and never overfill the tray. This could cause a paper jam. • Avoid paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or a texture that is too smooth or too rough. • Colored paper should be of the same high quality as white photocopy paper. The pigments must be able to withstand the printer's fusing temperature of 180°C (356°F) for 0.1 seconds without deteriorating. Do not use paper with a colored coating that was added after the paper was produced. • Preprinted forms must be printed with nonflammable, heatresistant ink that does not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when subjected to the printer's fusing temperature. • Store paper in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use it. Place cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor. • Do not place heavy objects on top of the paper, whether it is packaged or unpackaged. • Keep paper away from moisture, direct sunlight, or other conditions that can cause it to wrinkle or curl. 4.1 Using Print Materials
