Supported Paper and Media Paper That Can Damage Your Printer Your printer is designed to use a variety of media types for print jobs. However, some media can cause poor output quality, increased paper jams, or damage to your printer. Unacceptable media includes: ■ Rough or porous media, such as inkjet paper ■ Plastic media ■ Paper that has been folded or wrinkled ■ Paper that has been photocopied ■ Paper with staples ■ Carbonless paper ■ Envelopes with windows, metal clasps, or adhesives with release strips ■ Padded envelopes ■ Non-laser glossy paper ■ Transparencies other than the Xerox Digital Color Clear Transparencies ■ Label stock that has one or more labels removed from a sheet ■ Media that is less than 75 g/m2 (20 lb. Bond) or more than 255 g/m2 (90 lb. Cover) ■ Embossed, coated, or pre-printed paper with heat tolerances below 210° C (322° F) ■ Media that melts, offsets, or discolors at temperatures less than 210° C (322° F) for 0.2 seconds. See also: Printing Envelopes on page 3-36 Paper Storage Guidelines Providing good storage conditions for your paper and other media 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, which is emitted by the sun and fluorescent bulbs, is particularly damaging to paper items. The intensity and length of exposure to visible light on paper items should be reduced as much as possible. ■ Maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity. ■ Avoid attics, kitchens, garages, and basements for storing paper. Inside walls are drier than outside walls where moisture can collect. ■ Store paper flat. Paper should be stored 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. ■ Leave the media inside the bag until you are ready to use it; reinsert unused media in the bag and reseal it for protection. Some specialty media is packaged inside resealable plastic bags. Phaser® 7760 Color Laser Printer 3-4

Providing good storage conditions for your paper and other media 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, which is emitted by the sun
and fluorescent bulbs, is particularly damaging to paper items. The intensity and length of
exposure to visible light on paper items should be reduced as much as possible.

■
Avoid attics, kitchens, garages, and basements for storing paper. Inside walls are drier than
outside walls where moisture can collect.
■
Store paper flat. Paper should be stored 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.
