Plain Paper; Envelopes - Canon FAX-L360 User Manual

Plain Paper

Follow these guidelines when selecting paper:
❏ The laser printing process uses high temperatures to fuse toner to the paper.
Use paper that will not melt, vaporize, discolour, or emit dangerous fumes at
temperatures near 170ºC. For example, do not use vellum paper in a laser
printer. Make sure any letterhead or coloured paper you use can withstand high
temperatures.
❏ Make sure the paper is free of dust, lint, and oil stains.
❏ Highly textured, extremely smooth or shiny paper does not print well.
❏ Damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause paper jams or poor print
quality.
For paper sizes other than A4, letter, and legal, be sure to use face-up delivery.
See page 4-10 for details.
Note

Envelopes

Standard envelopes with diagonal seams and flaps should print nicely.
Envelopes must meet the requirements listed for plain paper, as well as the
following:
❏ Envelopes must not contain clasps, fasteners, windows, or peel-off adhesive
strips for sealing.
❏ Envelopes must be empty. Do not put anything in the envelope prior to
printing.
❏ Envelopes must be flat and straight. Be sure to flatten out any curls or wrinkles
before printing.
When feeding envelopes, be sure to use face-up delivery. See page 4-10 for details.
