Acceptable paper and
other print media
Print quality may vary according to the type of
paper you are using.
You can use the following types of print
media: thin paper, plain paper, thick paper,
bond paper, recycled paper, labels or
envelopes.
For best results, follow the instructions below:
 DO NOT put different types of paper in the
paper tray at the same time because it
may cause paper jams or misfeeds.
 For proper printing, you must choose the
same paper size from your software
application as the paper in the tray.
 Avoid touching the printed surface of the
paper immediately after printing.
 Before you buy a lot of paper, test a small
quantity to make sure the paper is
suitable.
