Document types

Precautions
•
Sub-standard paper can affect the quality of
printing.
•
Make sure the paper feeds smoothly, and that
it is not held too tightly nor has too much play.
•
The document/envelope must not be curled,
crumpled or torn, otherwise it may jam or
even not be inserted. Always use paper in
perfect condition and within the specifications
defined.
•
Printing on both sides of the paper may
increase the risk of misfeeds or paper jams
and may cause smudging.
•
If you remove the paper from or add paper to
the multiple document feeder, you MUST
repeat the entire paper loading operation.
•
When using user-defined/non-standard size
d o c u m e n t s , r e m e m b e r t o s ele ct the
appropriate paper type in your printer driver
(see the On-Line Documentation loaded
with your printer driver).
•
For all types of special media, always read the
instructions included with the media pack.
Remember that heavily printed pages tend to
curl and thus not stack correctly. They also tend
to stain the rear of the page stacked over them,
as they require longer to dry. Remove these
pages as soon as they are expelled from the
printer and leave them to dry singly before
handling them.
See "Printer Characteristics" for the formats and
dimensions of plain paper/special printing media
you can use in your printer.

q Envelopes
Envelopes can be inserted either in packs of up
to 25 in the multiple document feeder or one at a
time through the single document feeder.
You MUST use the intermediate right hand mar-
gin guide regardles of which feeder you use.
The envelopes must inserted with their short side
as the leading edge, the printing side face up and
the sealing flap underneath. Remember to select
a landscape font for printing (in Windows®
environment, you will require a TrueType font).
q Special printing media
For optimum printing quality, you should always
use printing media specifically indicated for ink jet
printers, see Supplies and Accessories for
recommended media types.
For all types of special media, always read the
instructions included with the media pack.
