A.
This appendix provides information and specifications for the media
you use with your Xerox DocuPrint 96, 4635, or 180 printer.
Instructions for ordering supplies are also provided.
Consumable supplies (those that are depleted during operation of
the system), such as paper, dry ink, developer, fuser agent, etc.,
must be ordered for your printer. It is important that an adequate
supply of these items be on hand for installation, and that your supply
be maintained afterwards.
The success of any print run is greatly dependent on the proper
selection, care, and handling of the stock used.
You need to select your paper carefully. If you do not use the proper
paper, you increase the probability of paper jams and misfeeds. The
stocks you use must meet the specifications set forth by Xerox for
operability in the printer. For additional information about paper
specifications, refer to Helpful Facts about Paper, delivered with your
printer.

xerographic grade. Xerox 4024 Dual Purpose Paper provides optimal
