Printing See also: Loading Paper on page 51 Paper Jams on page 141 Paper That Can Damage Your Printer Your printer is designed to use various paper types. However, some paper can cause poor output quality, increase paper jams, or damage your printer. Unacceptable media includes: • Rough or porous media • Transparencies • Paper that has been folded or wrinkled • Paper with staples • Envelopes with windows or metal clasps • Padded envelopes • Non-laser glossy or coated paper • Perforated media • Carbon backed media or paper • Pressure sensitive media or paper • Paper designed for use in inkjet printers Paper Storage Guidelines Providing good storage conditions for your paper contributes to optimum print quality. • Store paper in dark, cool, relatively dry locations. Most paper items are susceptible to damage from ultraviolet (UV) and visible light. UV radiation emitted by the sun and fluorescent bulbs is particularly damaging to paper items. Reduce the intensity and length of exposure to visible light on paper items as much as possible. • Maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity. • Avoid moisture, excessive humidity, and heat above 32°C (90°F). • Avoid attics, kitchens, garages, and basements for storing paper. Inside walls are drier than outside walls where moisture can collect. • Store paper flat on pallets, cartons, shelves, or in cabinets. • Avoid having food or drinks in the area where paper is stored or handled. • Do not open sealed packages of paper until you are ready to load them into the printer. Leave paper in the original packaging. For most commercial cut-size grades, the ream wrapper contains an inner lining that protects the paper from moisture loss or gain.
