This section describes the guidelines for selecting paper.
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. Paper should have
as smooth and even a surface as possible.
Do not use paper that has been coated or surface-treated and contains
plastic or carbon. The heat of fusing can cause such paper to give off
harmful fumes.
Bond paper should contain at least 80 % pulp. Not more than 20 % of the
total paper content should consist of cotton or other fibers.
Cassettes and the MP Tray are available for the paper sizes listed in the
table below. The dimensional tolerances are ±0.7mm (±0.0276 inches) for
the length and width. The angle at the corners must be 90° ±0.2°.
