2. Handling Paper
• If printed sheets are curled, turn over the paper that is in the paper tray being used. By doing this,
the amount of curl may be reduced.
• The paper in the paper tray may change shape if the air conditioner is turned off for a long period,
such as at nighttime or on weekends. Check the condition of the paper in the paper tray before
using the machine. If the paper has curled or become wavy, reload it correctly or remove the
paper that has changed shape.
• Keep the temperature and humidity of the room in which the machine is located as constant as
possible.
• If the machine you are using has a function to compensate for curled paper, you can specify curl
compensation in the machine's settings. See the manuals supplied with the machine for details
about how to configure this setting.
How to Fan a Stack of Paper
Sheets of paper that stick together may cause multiple sheet feeding or paper jams. Fan the stack of
paper before loading it in the paper tray.
Hold the stack of paper in both hands, shuffle the sheets of paper. Otherwise, place the stack of
paper on a flat surface, place one hand on the side of the paper and shuffle the other side with
your other hand.
Refer to the above methods, and select the easiest method for the type and size of paper that you
are loading.
