problems:

Poor print quality
•
Increased paper jams

Premature wear on the printer.
Properties, such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture content,
are important factors that affect the printer’s performance and the output
quality. When you choose print materials, consider the following:
•
Desired outcome: The print media you choose should be appropriate
for your project.
•
Size: You can use any size media that fits easily within the paper
adjusters of the paper tray.
