Important!
Do not use the following types of paper, as they can cause jams or misfeeds:
• Extremely thin paper (less than 13-lb bond, or 46 g/m
• Extremely thick or heavy paper (greater than 110-lb index, or 210 g/m
• Wrinkled, curled, folded, or torn paper
• Chemically treated or coated paper (such as thermal or carbon paper)

Guides for Trouble-Free Use

To prevent paper jams and misfeeds, follow the directions below:
• When using standard or light-weight paper, set the Paper Feed Pressure
Adjustment Lever and the Paper Stopper Cushion Knob to "NORMAL", and open
all four Paper Arrangers. p.20, 23-24
• When using thick paper (such as card stock), set the Paper Feed Pressure
Adjustment Lever and the Paper Stopper Cushion Knob to "CARD", and open the
two inner Paper Arrangers. p.20, 23-24
• When using slippery paper, set the Paper Feed Pressure Adjustment Lever to
"CARD". p.20
• Slide the Feed Tray Paper Guides, Receiving Tray Paper Guides, and Paper Stop
to fit the paper size. p.20-24
• Use flat printing paper that is free of folds. If curled paper is unavoidable, place the
printing paper so that the curl faces down.
• Paper may stick to the cylinder (drum) surface if the top margin is too narrow on the
original or if the upper portion of the original uses a large amount of ink. To solve
this problem, lower the print position to provide a wider top margin or reverse the
top and bottom of the original. Then restart printing from the beginning. p.69

Storing Environment

Store printing paper in a level, dry area. Storing the paper in an excessively humid
area could cause paper jams as well as poor print quality.
After unpacking printing paper, keep the remaining paper wrapped and store it in a
moisture-proof box. It is highly recommended to put silica gel in the paper storage box.
