Loading the Print Media

Keep the following in mind when selecting or loading media for your MultiPASS
C50:
2-44 Setting Up Your MultiPASS C50
You can stack plain paper, envelopes, and other media in the MultiPASS
C50's sheet feeder. The maximum size of the stack depends on the medium:
Medium
Plain paper
Envelopes
Transparencies
Back print film
To avoid paper jams and poor print quality, never try to print on damp, curled,
wrinkled, or torn paper.
Store paper and other media flat, and leave it in its wrapper until you are
ready to use it. Store unused paper from opened packs in the original packing
in a cool, dry location.
Store paper at 18 -24 C, 40%-60% relative humidity.
If you have trouble with sheets skewing, double-feeding, or jamming when
using coated paper, transparencies, or back print film in the sheet feeder, use
manual feeding instead. (These problems are more common at cooler
temperatures.)
Let the paper run out before you refill the sheet feeder. Avoid mixing "new"
paper with paper remaining in the sheet feeder.
Use cut-sheet paper only, not paper that comes on a roll (like fax paper).
When using graph paper, the lines may not match because the 4.23 mm line
spacing of the MultiPASS C50 is slightly less than that of graph paper.
If the print density of your page is very high, light paper stock may curl
slightly due to the large amount of ink. If you need to print dense graphics, try
printing on heavier stock.
Do not use paper that is thicker than specified for the MultiPASS C50.
Printing with a paper that is thick enough to come in contact with the print
head nozzles may damage the BJ cartridge. For complete paper specifications,
see "Printer" on page A-6.
