Page 14: Print Media
Print Media Paper: General Information When you buy paper, keep in mind that page printers require a smooth finish paper. For most everyday applications, paper rated for copiers and laser printers should work well with your printer. Before buying any large quantity of a particular paper, always test a sample first. Caution! Print media (including ink on preprinted forms) must be able to withstand 392°F (200°C) for 0.1 second.
Page 15: Changing The Media Type In The Printer Driver
Changing the Media Type in the Printer Driver The printer is optimized for printing on 20-lb. (75 g/m ) paper. If you consistently use much lighter or heavier paper in Tray 1 (or Tray 2 if installed), or transparencies in the manual feed tray, you must change the Media setting to match what you are using.
Page 16: Paper/Print Media Feed Paths
Paper/Print Media Feed Paths Print media can be supplied to the printer in five ways: Ÿ From Tray 1, which takes up to 250 sheets of 20-lb. paper Ÿ From the Manual Feeder, which takes 1 sheet of 20-lb. paper or 1 envelope, as well as transparencies, label sheets or heavy paper Ÿ...
Page 17: Paper/Print Media Exit Paths
Paper/Print Media Exit Paths The printer has two exit paths: Ÿ Top Exit: The normal exit used for routine printing Ÿ Rear Exit: Used for special types of print media such as envelopes, labels, transparencies, etc.
Page 18: Top Exit
Top Exit The top exit is the one normally used for routine printing. Ÿ Printed pages feed face down into the bin on top of the printer. Ÿ The bin holds 150 sheets of 20 lb. paper. Ÿ Pages stack in the correct order. To use the top exit: 1.
Page 19: Rear Exit
Rear Exit Use rear exit when printing on heavy paper, envelopes, labels, and transparencies. Ÿ Printed pages feed face up into the rear tray. Ÿ The tray holds a maximum of 50 sheets of 20 lb. paper Ÿ Pages stack in reverse order. Ÿ...
Page 20: The Paper Tray Gauge
The Paper Tray Gauge The paper tray gauge indicates the amount of paper left in the tray. This eliminates having to open the tray to check how much paper remains.
Page 21: Paper Size Indicator
Paper Size Indicator The flashing marker (—) in the printer display window indicates the paper size installed in the paper tray. For example, in the picture above, legal (LGL) size paper is installed. This feature eliminates having to open the paper tray to see which paper size is loaded.
Page 22: Storing Paper
Storing Paper If paper is stored improperly, print quality could be affected. Ÿ Store paper in a dark, dry place such as a closet or a cabinet. Ÿ Don't open the package until you are ready to use it. Ÿ Always store paper lying flat, or it may curl. Ÿ...
Page 23: Selecting Paper: Basis Weight
Selecting Paper: Basis Weight Bond Paper Ÿ Automatic feed: use 16-lb. to 28-lb. bond—do not use automatic feed for bond paper over 28 lb. Ÿ Manual feed: use 16-lb. to 32-lb. bond. Cover stock Other types of paper measure weight differently. For example, 45-lb. cover stock is approximately equivalent to 32-lb.
Page 24: Selecting Paper: Brightness
Selecting Paper: Brightness Brightness is: Ÿ The amount of light reflected off of the page Ÿ Measured on a scale of 1 to 100 (copier paper has a brightness of about Many catalogs list brightness values for paper, but your eye is generally the best judge.
Page 25: Selecting Paper: Pulp/Rag Content
Selecting Paper: Pulp/Rag Content Ideally, paper should be made from 100% wood pulp. However, most papers have some cotton or rag content. Note: Paper with high cotton content, unless designed for laser printers, generally does not print well because the surface is too rough.
Page 26: Selecting Paper: Opacity
Selecting Paper: Opacity Opacity determines how much print shows through from one side of the paper to the other. This is more important for multi-page documents. Opaque paper generally lets very little light pass through it. Your eye is generally the best judge.
