CAUTION:
When you are choosing print media, be sure to follow the information given below to prevent
any paper jams, print quality problems or printer damage;


It is recommended to use long-grained paper for the best print quality. If short-grained
paper is being used, it might be the cause of paper jams.


Use neutral paper. Do not use acid paper to avoid any damage to the drum unit.


Avoid using coated paper such as vinyl coated paper.


Avoid using preprinted or highly textured paper.


It is recommended to use labels or transparencies which are designed for use in laser
printers.


Avoid feeding labels with the carrier sheet exposed, or the printer will be damaged.


Before loading paper with holes such as organizer sheets, be sure to fan the stack well.


Do not use organizer sheets that are stuck together. The glue that is used might caused
damaged to the printer.


When printing on the back of pre-printed paper, if the paper is curled, be sure to straighten
the paper as much as possible.


Different types of paper should not be loaded at the same time in the paper cassette to
avoid any paper jams or misfeeds.
