Storing Media; Supported Paper Sizes, Types, And Weights; Supported Paper Sizes - Lexmark C530 User Manual

•
Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure the card stock can withstand temperatures up to 180°C (356°
F) without releasing hazardous emissions.
•
Do not use preprinted card stock manufactured with chemicals that may contaminate the printer. Preprinting
introduces semi-liquid and volatile components into the printer.
•
Use grain long card stock when possible.

Storing media

Use these media storage guidelines to help avoid jams and uneven print quality:
•
For best results, store media where the temperature is 21°C (70°F) and the relative humidity is 40%.
•
Store media in cartons when possible, on a pallet or shelf, rather than on the floor.
•
Store individual packages of media on a flat surface.
•
Do not store anything on top of individual media packages.
