Print media
Transparencies
* Labels and transparencies may be sent to the standard output bin; however, they may
print more successfully when sent to the rear output bin.
Storing print media
Use the following guidelines for proper print media storage. These help avoid paper feeding problems
and uneven print quality:
•
For best results, 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, make sure 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.
Print media guidelines
Selecting the appropriate print media (paper, transparencies, envelopes, paper labels, and card
stock) for your MFP helps you avoid printing problems.
The following sections contain guidelines for choosing the correct print media.
Paper
For the best print quality, use 75 g/m
paper you are considering using with the MFP before buying large quantities.
When loading paper, note the recommended print side on the paper package, and load paper
accordingly. See the following topics for detailed loading instructions:
•
Loading the standard tray or the optional 250-sheet tray
•
Loading the optional 500-sheet tray
•
Using and loading the multipurpose feeder
The following papers are not recommended for use with your MFP:
