Special Paper - Kyocera FS-C5100DN Advanced Operation Manual

Handling Paper
Whiteness: The contrast of the printed page depends on the whiteness
of the paper. Whiter paper provides a sharper, brighter appearance.
Quality control: Uneven sheet size, corners that are not square, ragged
edges, welded (uncut) sheets, and crushed edges and corners can cause
the machine to malfunction in various ways. A quality paper supplier
should take considerable care to ensure that these problems do not
occur.
Packaging: Paper should be packed in a sturdy carton to protect it from
damage during transport. Quality paper obtained from a reputable
supplier is usually correctly packaged.
Note You might see the printer emitting steam in the area around
the top tray if you use damp paper, but it is safe to continue
printing.

Special Paper

The following types of special paper can be used:
Paper Type to be Used
Thin paper (60 to 64 g/m²)
Thick paper (90 to 220 g/m²)
Colored paper
Recycled paper
Overhead projector transparencies
Postcards
Envelopes
Label
Coated paper
Use paper that is sold specifically for use with copiers or printers (heat-
fusing type). When using transparencies, labels, thin paper, envelopes,
postcards, or thick paper, feed the paper from the MP tray. For details,
refer to Paper Source (Selecting the paper feed source) on page 2-39.
Since the composition and quality of special paper vary considerably,
special paper is more likely than white bond paper to give trouble during
printing. No liability will be assumed if moisture and so forth given off
during printing on special paper causes harm to the machine or operator.
Note Before purchasing any type of special paper, test a sample
on the machine and check that printing quality is satisfactory.
