Printer and Paper Storage Environment

Paper storage environmental conditions directly affect the feed operation.
Ideally, the printer and paper storage environment should be at or near room temperature, and
not too dry or humid. Remember that paper is hygroscopic; it absorbs and loses moisture
rapidly.
Heat works with humidity to damage paper. Heat causes the moisture in paper to evaporate,
while cold causes it to condense on the sheets. Heating systems and air conditioners remove
most of the humidity from a room. As paper is opened and used, it loses moisture, causing
streaks and smudging. Humid weather or water coolers can cause the humidity to increase in a
room. As paper is opened and used it absorbs any excess moisture, causing light print and
dropouts. Also, as paper loses and gains moisture it can become distorted. This can cause paper
jams.
Care should be taken not to purchase more paper than can be used in a short time (about 3
months). Paper stored for long periods may experience heat and moisture extremes, which can
cause damage. Planning is important to prevent damage to large supplies of paper.
