  • Page 48: General Guidelines

    General Guidelines General Guidelines The printer is designed to print on high-quality copier bond paper (the kind used in ordinary dry copier machines), but it can also accept a variety of other types of paper within the limits specified below. The manufacturer assumes no liability for problems that occur when paper not satisfying these requirements is used.

  • Page 49: Selecting The Right Paper

    Selecting the Right Paper Selecting the Right Paper Laser printing is a process involving laser light, electrostatic discharge, toner, and heat. In addition, as the paper passes through the printer it undergoes considerable sliding, bending, and twisting motions. A high- quality printing paper matching the printer’s requirements withstands all these stresses, enabling the printer to turn out clean, crisp printed copies consistently.

  • Page 50: Paper Size

    Selecting the Right Paper Paper Size Cassettes and an MP tray are available for the paper sizes listed in Table 4-2. The dimensional tolerances are ±0.7 mm (±0.0276 inches) for the length and width. The angle at the corners must be 90° ±0.2°. Multi-Purpose tray Size Cassette or multi-purpose tray...

  • Page 51: Moisture Content

    Selecting the Right Paper Thickness (Caliper) Thick paper is referred to as high-caliper paper and thin paper as low- caliper paper. The paper used with the printer should be neither extremely thick nor extremely thin. If you are having problems with paper jams, multiple feeds, and faint printing, the paper you are using may be too thin.
  • Page 52 Selecting the Right Paper Other Paper Properties Porosity: Refers to the density of the paper structure; that is, to how openly or compactly the fibers are bonded. Stiffness: Limp paper can buckle inside the printer, while paper that is too stiff may bind.

    Special Paper Special Paper The following types of special paper can be used: • Transparency (overhead projection film) • Adhesive-backed label paper • Envelopes • Colored paper • Preprinted paper • Recycled paper Use paper that is sold specifically for use with copiers (heat-fusing type). Transparency, label paper, and envelopes should not be placed in the paper cassette;...

  • Page 54: Adhesive-Backed Labels

    Special Paper 4.3.2 Adhesive-Backed Labels The basic rule for printing on adhesive labels is that the adhesive must never come into contact with any part of the printer. Adhesive paper sticking to the drum or rollers will damage the printer. Label paper must be manually fed.
  • Page 55 Special Paper Postcards Fan the stack of postcards and align the edges before loading them in the MP tray. Make sure the postcards you are going to set are not curled. Feeding curled postcards may cause paper jams. Some postcards have rough edges on the back (those are created when the paper is cut).

  • Page 56: Thick Paper

    Special Paper Thick Paper Fan the stack of paper and align the edges before loading them in the MP tray. Some types of paper have rough edges on the back (those are created when the paper is cut). In this case, put the paper on a flat place and rub the edges once or twice with, for example, a ruler to smooth them in the same way as described in Postcards...

  • Page 57: Paper Type

    Paper Type Paper Type The printer is capable of printing under the optimum setting for the type of paper being used. Setting the paper type for the paper source by using the KM-NET for Clients utility will cause the printer to automatically select the paper source and print in the mode best suited to that type of paper.
