  • Page 29 Selecting the Right Paper This section describes the guidelines for selecting paper. Condition Avoid using paper that is bent at the edges, curled, dirty, torn, embossed, or contaminated with lint, clay, or paper shreds. Use of paper in these conditions can lead to illegible printing and paper jams, and can shorten the life of the machine.

  • Page 30: Basis Weight

    Smoothness The paper should have a smooth, uncoated surface. Paper with a rough or sandy surface can cause voids in the printed output. Paper that is too smooth can cause multiple feeding and fogging problems. (Fogging is a gray background effect.) Basis Weight Basis weight is the weight of paper expressed in grams per square meter (g/m²).

  • Page 31: Moisture Content

    Moisture Content Moisture content is defined as the percent ratio of moisture to the dry mass of the paper. Moisture can affect the paper’s appearance, feed ability, curl, electrostatic properties, and toner fusing characteristics. The moisture content of the paper varies with the relative humidity in the room.

  • Page 32: Special Paper

    Packaging: Paper should be packed in a sturdy carton to protect it from damage during transport. Quality paper obtained from a reputable supplier is usually correctly packaged. Note You might see the printer emitting steam in the area around the top tray if you use damp paper, but it is safe to continue printing.
  • Page 33 Transparency Transparencies must be able to withstand the heat of fusing during the printing process. The recommended transparency product is 3M CG3700 (Letter, A4). The table below lists the specifications for transparency: Item Specification Tolerance of heat Must tolerate at least 190 °C (374 °F) Thickness 0.100 to 0.110 mm (3.9 to 4.3 mils) Material...

  • Page 36: Thick 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.
  • Page 37 Paper Type Indicators (Optional paper feeder PF-510) If you are going to load non standard paper in the optional paper feeder PF-510, cut out the blank section of the attached paper type indicator sheet, fold the remaining sheet in half and insert it into the cassette's display folder so that the paper type symbol is displayed.

  • Page 38: 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 from the printer’s operation panel will cause the printer to automatically select the paper source and print in the mode best suited to that type of paper.

  • Page 39: Loading Paper

    Loading Paper The following explains the procedure for loading paper in the cassette and the MP tray. Loading Paper into the Cassette Fan the media (paper/transparencies), then tap it on a level surface to avoid media jams or skewed printing. Pull the paper cassette all the way out of the printer.
