For more information about the recommended media, contact your local Océ
representative.
Problems that occur due to use of media other than those recommended are not
guaranteed.
When using recommended media, the setting values for the printing quality are set
for each media type.
When printing on media other than those specified, information regarding proper
settings for the media type and settings for the product should be found on the
instructions for the media. If not contact the media supplier.
Use recommended media in an appropriate environment. Following are the
appropriate temperature and humidity ranges for printing.
Do not use creased, damaged, torn, curled, or wrapped media.
The size of the recommended sheets can change at a fixed ratio according to the
temperature changes of the working environment. Before using sheet media, place
the sheet in the working environment for at least 30 minutes, so it can match to the
temperature of the working area.
Printing before the media could accommodate to the printing environment may
cause media jams due to slippage or creases. This also adversely affects the print
quality.
Media has a printable side and a non-printable side. If you print on a non printable
side, blurring or slight touching may occur.
Do not touch the printable side of media. Moisture or oil from hands affects the
print quality.
Do not leave the printer for a long time with media loaded. The media may curl
resulting in misalignment, media jams, or decreased printing quality. In particular,
avoid this in winter, dry seasons, or during final printing.
Do not lose the box or rapping bag for storing media.
