USAGE GUIDELINES

Preprinted Papers

16
Material Description & Expectations
This category encompasses a wide variety of materials. Offset
printed Letterhead papers and Xerographic Prints, within the
recommended paper weight range, will feed reliably in the 5760/
5765. Copies produced on laser, ink jet, or dot matrix printers,
carbonless paper, raised/engraved copies, and preprinted forms,
using various inks (with and without MICR), have not been tested
and should be considered in the not recommended category.
Recommended Materials
Offset printed Letterhead and Xerographic Prints from 16 lb
bond (60 gsm) to 90 lb index (163 gsm).

Steps for Success
1 Ensure paper is within the 5760/5765's paper weight range.
2 For best feeding performance, run all preprinted sheets from the
Paper Tray Bypass. If paper is heavier than 28 lb bond (105
gsm), run it in the Heavy Paper Mode.
3 Allow preprinted sheets to dry completely before loading them
into the copier/printer.
4 The preprinted ink should have a low conductivity and will have to
withstand the high fuser temperature of the 5760/5765 (155° C/
310° F).
5 Keep the preprinted sheets free from curl. Ensure that sheets are
flat or have a slight lead edge downcurl when loaded into the
bypass paper tray.
6 To minimize jams, store preprinted sheets carefully. Avoid
damaging the edges or corners of the paper and protect
preprinted sheets from humid conditions that will lead to image
quality problems.
Hints, Tips & Testing Results
Xerox testing has shown the following:
Some inks from preprinted materials may cause deletions,
offsetting or contamination. Select a surface-drying , laser-
compatible ink designed for reproduction on color copier/
printers. An example is TuffText by Vanson. Your offset printer
representative may be able to specify an ink with similar
characteristics.
Two-sided copying/printing onto preprinted materials is not
recommended. In many cases, deletions will occur if you
