Paper Handling Print Media Guidelines Using the Multi-purpose Feeder Storing Print Media Using the High Capacity Feeder Identifying Print Media Sources and Specifications For Standard, Optional 500 Sheet Tray and HCF Setting Paper Size Selecting an Output Location Setting the Paper Type Loading Print Media in the Paper Tray Tray Behavior Print Media Guidelines Print media is paper, card stock, transparencies, labels, and envelopes.
Grain refers to the alignment of the paper fibers in a sheet of paper. Grain is either long grain, running the length of the paper, or short grain, running the width of the paper. For 60 to 90 g/m2 (16 to 24 lb bond) paper, long grain fibers are recommended. For papers heavier than 90 g/m2 (24 lb bond), short grain fibers are preferred. For the Multi-purpose Feeder, 60 to 90 g/m2 (16 to 24 lb bond) paper, long grain fibers are recommended.
l Do not use coated papers. l Remember to change the paper size setting when using a source that does not support auto size sensing. l Do not remove trays while a job is printing or Busy is displayed on the operator panel. l Ensure the paper is properly loaded in the source. l Before purchasing large quantities of paper, it is recommended that initially a small quantity be purchased, and tested in the printer to verify suitable results. l Flex paper back and forth.
Prepunched paper brands can differ in the number and placement of holes and in manufacturing techniques. Use the following guidelines to select and use prepunched paper: l Test paper from several manufacturers before ordering and using large quantities of prepunched paper. l Paper should be punched at the paper manufacturer and not drilled into paper already packaged in a ream. Drilled paper can cause jams when multiple sheets feed through the printer.
you have any doubts about the envelopes you are considering using, check with the envelope supplier. l Adjust the width guide to fit the width of the envelopes. l Load an envelope with the flap side down and with the stamp area on the top left side. The end of the envelope with the stamp area enters the Multipurpose Feeder first. See "Using the Multi-purpose Feeder" for instructions on loading an envelope.
Storing Print Media Use the following guidelines for proper print media storage. These help avoid print media feeding problems and uneven print quality: l For best results, store print media in an environment where the temperature is approximately 21° C (70° F) and the relative humidity is 40%. l Store cartons of print media on a pallet or shelf, rather than directly on the floor.
