and postcards.
Choosing Special Paper
Although special paper that meets the following requirements can be used with the copier, copy
quality will vary considerably due to differences in the construction and quality of special paper.
Thus, special paper is more likely than regular paper to cause copying problems. Before purchasing
special paper in volume, try testing a sample to ensure the copy quality is satisfactory. General
precautions when copying onto special paper are given below. Note that we are not responsible for
any harm to the user or damage to the copier caused by moisture or specifications of special paper.
Transparencies
Transparencies must be able to withstand the heat of copying. We recommend the following types.
3M PP2500 (available in Letter and A4 sizes)
Transparencies must meet the following conditions.
Criteria
Heat resistance
Thickness
Material
Dimensional accuracy
Squareness of corners
To avoid problems, use the MP tray for transparencies and load transparencies with the long side
facing the copier.
If transparencies jam frequently, try pulling the leading edge of sheets gently as they are ejected.
