■Transparent film
• Using "Fusing Web (Specialty Media)" is recommended.
• As to transparent films, make sure you use those of PET. If you use those of plastic, such as
PVC that can easily get deformed by heat, it might cause a print engine fault.
• Paper may get damages on its surface or imaged areas due to contact occurring while it
travels through the paper path. The longer the paper path, the more the damages. We
recommend that you use the Output Tray closest to the printer unit.
• Due to thermal dissolution of paper surface with ink applied, bleeding patterns or white
cloudy persistence of images may appear on the rear edge.
• Using light weight transparent film (100 μm) may cause corrugated output in the paper feed
direction due to deformation by heat. If you encounter such a problem, adjust the media
settings so that the fusing temperature is lowered.
• Transparent films easily get charged with static electricity and thus tend to adhere each
other. Therefore, make sure you:
- unpack the ream immediately prior to printing, and fan the sheets well.
- use 100 sheets at a maximum, when loading them into a Paper Tray.
- specify 10 sheets at a maximum, when delivering them into Output Tray.
■Vapor-deposited paper (metallic)
• Using "Fusing Web (Specialty Media)" is recommended.
• Store them in an environment in temperature of 16°C or more. Also, after use, make sure
you repack them in the original wrapper.
• Load only the required sheets of films into a Paper Tray to use, and do not leave them for a
long time.
• Paper may get damages on its surface or imaged areas due to contact occurring while it
travels through the paper path. The longer the paper path, the more the damages. We
recommend that you use the Output Tray closest to the printer unit. Applying a post
possessing such as PP or UV varnish will make scratches less noticeable.
• Due to thermal dissolution of paper surface with ink applied, bleeding patterns or white
cloudy persistence of images may appear on the rear edge.
• Thermal applied during ink fusing may result in a chemical change of the image receptor
layer of media, and thus may cause discoloration into rainbow-colored. If you encounter
such a problem, adjust the media settings so that the fusing temperature is lowered.
• Depending on the type of the image receptor layer of media, toners are not fused
sufficiently, and thus toner can easily scratch off prints. Such a falling off of inks can be
avoided by applying PP for on-demand.
• Some types of paper can easily get charged with static electricity. When using such a paper,
discharge may occur when you remove the stack from Paper Tray.
