  • Page 34: Selecting The Right Paper

    Loading Paper Selecting the Right Paper This section describes the guidelines for selecting paper. Condition Avoid using paper that is bent at the edges, curled, dirty, torn, embossed, or contaminated with lint, clay, or paper shreds. Use of paper in these conditions can lead to illegible printing and paper jams, and can shorten the life of the machine. In particular, avoid using paper with a surface coating or other surface treatment.
  • Page 35: Basis Weight

    Loading Paper Basis weight Basis weight is the weight of paper expressed in grams per square meter (g/m²). Paper that is too heavy or too light may cause feed errors or paper jams as well as premature wear of the product. Uneven weight of paper, namely uneven paper thickness may cause multiple-sheet feeding or print quality problems such as blurring because of poor toner fusing.
  • Page 36: Special Paper

    Loading Paper Curl: Most paper naturally tends to curl one way if left unpacked. When paper passes through the fixing unit, it curls upward a little. To produce flat printouts, load the paper so that the upward pressure from the machine can correct their curling.
  • Page 37 Loading Paper Label paper has a structure comprising of three layers, as shown in the diagram. The top sheet is printed on. The adhesive layer consists of pressure-sensitive adhesives. The carrier sheet (also called the linear or Top sheet (white backing sheet) holds the labels until used.
  • Page 38 Loading Paper Thick Paper If an excessive amount of thick paper is loaded in the cassette, it may not be fed. In that case, reduce the number of sheets to be loaded. Fan the stack of paper and align the edges before loading them in the paper source.
  • Page 39: Paper Type

    Not only can preset paper types be selected, but it is also possible for you to define and select customized paper types. Paper type can be changed using the printer driver and KYOCERA Client Tool. The following types of paper can be used.
  • Page 40: Preparing The Paper

    Loading Paper Preparing the Paper After removing paper from the packaging, fan through the sheets to separate them prior to loading.
