Coated Papers

MAJESTIK 5760/5765 MATERIALS USAGE GUIDE
Hints, Tips & Testing Results
Xerox testing has shown the following:
•
When recommended materials are run as detailed above, with
the correct tray, mode, and orientation, feeding performance
and image quality is good, but will not equal 24 lb LX (90 gsm)
performance.
•
The Xerox 1-up (3R4473) and 8-up (3R4472) labels may
experience more jams due to their higher stiffness.
•
Toner saturation on electronic originals should be limited to a
total of 280% (70% for each Color). Higher toner saturations
can result in poorly fused prints.
•
In general, successful labels will have a low-weight face and
backing sheet, and should have a pattern-printed adhesive.
Overall weight should be less than 163 gsm. They should also
be run with the grain parallel to the leading edge.
•
If attempting to use a label that has not been recommended,
first try a small quantity to test its performance, then consult
your local Xerox representative for agreement on its use.
CAUTION: Dry gum labels (those that require moistening before
being applied) can cause severe machine contamination problems
and should not be used.
Material Description & Expectations
Coated papers have binders, adhesives and pigments applied to
their surfaces on one or both sides. As compared to the primary
24lb (90 gsm) papers, they provide improved image gloss but will
generally cause an increase in jams. Two-sided copying/printing of
coated papers is not recommended because of frequent jams and
likely image quality/gloss problems.
Recommended Materials
Xerox 32 lb Ultra Spec Series (120 gsm) 8.5 x 11" = 3R5093
Xerox 60 lb Ultra Spec Series (162 gsm) 8.5 x 11" = 3R5095
These Xerox Coated papers are specifically made for use in
copiers/printers. Because of wide variation in other coated
papers, it is impossible to predict how they will perform.
