Selecting Print Materials - Samsung SCX-4300 User Manual

Selecting print materials

You can print on a variety of print materials, such as plain
paper, envelopes, labels, and transparencies. Always use print
materials that meet the guidelines for use with your machine.
Paper that does not meet the guidelines outlined in this user's
guide may cause the following problems:
• Poor print quality
• Increased paper jams
• Premature wear on the machine.
Properties, such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture
content, are important factors that affect the machine's
performance and the output quality. When you choose print
materials, consider the following:
• Desired outcome: The paper you choose should be
appropriate for your project.
• Size: You can use any size paper that fits easily within the
paper adjusters of the paper input tray.
• Weight: Your machine supports paper weights as follows:
2
- 16 to 24 lb (60 to 90 g/m ) bond for the paper input tray
2
- 16 to 43 lb (60 to 165 g/m
• Brightness: Some papers are whiter than others and
produce sharper, more vibrant images.
• Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the paper affects
how crisp the printing looks on the paper.

paper meets the requirements specified in this user's guide.
