Storing Print Media
To avoid potential paper feeding problems and uneven print quality, there are several things you can do:
•
To achieve the best possible print quality, store print media in an environment where the temperature is
approximately 21 °C (70 °F) and the relative humidity is 40 %.
•
Store cartons of print media on a pallet or shelf, rather than directly on the floor.
•
If you store individual packages of print media out of the original carton, ensure that they rest on a flat surface so
the edges do not buckle or curl.
•
Do not place anything on top of the print media packages.
Storing Consumables
Store consumables in their original packaging until you need to use them. Do not store consumables in:
•
Temperatures greater than 40 °C (104 °F).
•
An environment with extreme changes in humidity or temperature.
•
Direct sunlight.
•
Dusty places.
•
A car for a long period of time.
•
An environment where corrosive gases are present.
•
A humid environment.
