Getting Started
Storing paper
Paper should always be stored properly. Improperly stored paper might result
in poor print quality, paper misfeeds or printer damage.

Recommendations are as follows:
• Avoid storing paper in humid areas.
• Avoid exposing paper to direct sunlight.
• Store on a flat surface.
• Keep open reams of paper in the package in which the paper came.
Types of paper and other media
Plain paper
• If you print on paper heavier than 90 g/m
bypass tray can hold paper up to 162 g/m
• If you load paper heavier than 155 g/m
the printer to Thick Paper mode using the operation panel. ⇒ P.47 "Using
the Operation Panel"
• If paper is curled or bent, correct it before loading.
OHP Transparencies
• Load only one OHP transparency at a time onto the bypass tray.
• When loading OHP transparencies onto the bypass tray, set the printer to
Thick Paper mode using the operation panel. ⇒ P.47 "Using the Operation
Panel"
• Be careful not to touch the print side of the OHP transparencies. Other-
wise, the print side gets dirty or damaged, and results in poor print quality.
• When printing on an OHP transparency that has a print side, load it facing
down onto the bypass tray.
Translucent paper
• Load only a piece of translucent paper at a time onto the bypass tray.
• When printing on translucent paper that has a print side, load it facing
down onto the bypass tray.
Adhesive labels
• Load only one adhesive label at a time onto the bypass tray.
• Use adhesive labels in which the whole side can be printed on.
• Avoid using adhesive labels having exposed glue.
• If the print side is coated, print quality might be reduced, as the toner
might not fuse well.
