Card stock construction

●

Smoothness:

Card stock should have smoothness in the range

of 100 to 180 Sheffield.

●

Construction:

Card stock should lie flat with less than 5 mm

(0.2 in) of curl. It should be short grain paper to improve feeding

and reduce wear on the printer.

●

Condition:

Make sure card stock is not wrinkled, nicked, or

otherwise damaged.

●

Sizes:

Use only card stock within the following size ranges:

• minimum: 76 by 127 mm (3 by 5 in)

• maximum: 216 by 356 mm (8.5 by 14 in)

Before loading card stock in tray 1, make sure it is regular in shape

and not damaged. Also, make sure the cards are not stuck together.

Card stock guidelines

●

If cards curl or jam, try printing from tray 1 and opening the rear

output bin.

Set margins at least 6 mm (0.24 in) away from the edges of the

paper.
