Choosing Paper and Other Media

You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper,
envelopes, labels, transparencies, card stocks and so on. See
"Paper Specifications" on
print quality, use only high-quality copier-grade paper.
When you choose print media, consider the following:
• Desired outcome: The paper you choose should be
appropriate for the project.
• Size: You can use any size paper that fits easily within the
paper adjusters of the paper tray.
• Weight : Your printer supports paper weight as follows:
• 16~28 lbs bond for Tray 1 or optional Tray 2
• 16~43 lbs bond for Multi-Purpose Tray
• Brightness: Some papers are whiter than others and
produce sharper, more vibrant images.
• Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the paper affects
how crisp the printing looks on the paper.
• Opacity: Opacity refers to the degree to which printing on
one side of the paper shows through the other side. Use
paper high in opacity (or thicker paper) for two-sided
(duplex) printing.
Always test a sample of paper before purchasing large
quantities.
CAUTION:
Using media that does not confirm to the specification
listed in the paper specification can cause problems that may
require service. This service is not covered by the warranty or
service agreements.
