Plain Paper; Transparencies; Labels - Canon LASER SHOT LBP-1210 User Manual

Plain Paper

Follow these guidelines when selecting paper:
❏ Paper that is too thick or too thin, or that has irregular shapes, cutouts,
or perforations should not be used.
❏ Never use paper that is wet, highly textured, rough, torn, wrinkled, or
damaged.
❏ Extremely smooth paper or paper with special coatings does not print
well.
❏ The laser printing process uses high temperatures to fuse toner to the
paper. Use paper that will not melt, vaporize, offset, discolor, or emit
dangerous fumes at about 190˚ C (374˚ F).
❏ Do not use thermal or carbon paper, or paper with glue, staples, clips,
or ribbons.
For colored paper, use colors that are not damaged by the heat of the
printer's fixing assembly (about 190˚ C or 374˚ F).

Transparencies

The acceptable size is A4. The transparencies must be able to withstand
the heat generated by the fixing assembly (about 190˚ C or 374˚ F)
without damage.

Labels

Labels are paper with pressure-sensitive adhesive. Acceptable size is A4.
Note the following conditions when choosing a label sheet:
❏ The label print face (top, or face sheet) must be made of ordinary,
matte-finish paper similar to copy paper.
❏ The paper backing must be able to withstand the heat generated by the
fixing assembly (about 190˚ C or 374˚ F). The backing must not be
made of easily removable coated paper.
