Acceptable paper and other print media

Print quality may vary according to the type of paper you are using.

You can use the following types of print media: plain paper, bond paper, recycled paper, transparencies, labels or envelopes.

For best results, follow the instructions below:

Use paper made for plain paper copying.

Use paper that is 75 to 90 g/m2.

Use labels and transparencies which are designed for use in laser machines.

Do not put different types of paper in the paper tray at the same time because it may cause paper jams or misfeeds.

For correct printing, you must choose the same paper size from your software application as the paper in the tray.

Avoid touching the printed surface of the paper immediately after printing.

When you use transparencies remove each sheet immediately to prevent smudging or paper jams.

Use long grain paper with a neutral Ph value, and a moisture content of approx. 5%.

Handling and using special paper

The machine is designed to work well with most types of xerographic and bond paper. However, some paper variables may have an effect on print quality or handling reliability. Always test samples of paper before purchasing to ensure desirable performance. Store paper in its original packaging and keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat.

Some important guidelines when selecting paper are:

Do not use inkjet paper because it may cause a paper jam or damage your machine.

Preprinted paper must use ink that can withstand the temperature of the machine’s fusing process (200 degrees centigrade).

If you use bond paper, paper having a rough surface or paper that is wrinkled or creased, the paper may exhibit degraded performance.

12

Types of paper to avoid

CAUTION

Some types of paper may not perform well or may cause damage to your machine.

DO NOT use paper:

that is highly textured

that is extremely smooth or shiny

that is curled or warped

1

1

1 2 mm

that is coated or has a chemical finish

that is damaged, creased or folded

that exceeds the recommended weight specification in this guide

with tabs and staples

with letterheads using low temperature dyes or thermography

that is multipart or carbonless

that is designed for inkjet printing

If you use any of the types of paper listed above, they may damage your machine. This damage is not covered under any Brother warranty or service agreement.

Loading paper and documents

Envelopes

Most envelopes will be suitable for your machine. However, some envelopes may have feed and print-quality problems

because of the way they have been made. A 2 suitable envelope should have edges with straight, well-creased folds and the leading

edge should not be thicker than two sheets of paper. The envelope should lie flat and not be of baggy or flimsy construction. You should buy quality envelopes from a supplier who understands that you will be using the envelopes in a laser machine.

Envelopes can be fed from manual feed slot one at a time. We recommend that you print a test envelope to make sure the print results are what you want before you print or purchase a large quantity of envelopes.

Check the following:

Envelopes should have a lengthwise sealing flap.

The sealing flaps should be folded crisply and correctly (irregularly cut or folded envelopes may cause paper jams).

Envelopes should consist of two layers of paper in the area circled in figure below.

1

1

1 Feeding direction

We recommend that you do not print within 15 mm of the edges of envelopes.

Envelope joints that are sealed by the manufacturer should be secure.

13

Chapter 2

Types of envelopes to avoid

CAUTION

DO NOT use envelopes:

that are damaged, curled, wrinkled or an unusual shape

that are extremely shiny or textured

with clasps, staples, snaps or tie strings

with self-adhesive closures

that are of a baggy construction

that are not sharply creased

that are embossed (have raised writing on them)

that were previously printed by a laser machine

that are pre-printed on the inside

that cannot be arranged neatly when stacked

that are made of paper that weighs more than the paper weight specifications for the machine

with edges that are not straight or consistently square

with windows, holes, cut-outs or perforations

with glue on surface as shown in figure below

with double flaps as shown in figure below

with sealing flaps that have not been folded at purchase

with sealing flaps as shown in figure below

with each side folded as shown in figure below

If you use any of the types of envelopes listed above, they may damage your machine. This damage is not covered under any Brother warranty or service agreement.

Occasionally you may experience paper feed problems caused by the thickness, size and flap shape of the envelopes you are using.

14

Labels

The machine will print on most types of labels designed for use with a laser machine. Labels should have an adhesive that is acrylic-based since this material is more stable at the high temperatures in the fuser unit. Adhesives should not come in contact with any part of the machine, because the label stock may stick to the drum unit or rollers and cause jams and print quality problems. No adhesive should be exposed between the labels. Labels should be arranged so that they cover the entire length and width of the sheet. Using labels with spaces may result in labels peeling off and causing serious jams or print problems.

All labels used in this machine must be able to withstand a temperature of 392 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees centigrade) for a period of 0.1 seconds.

Label sheets should not exceed the paper weight specifications described in this User’s Guide. Labels exceeding this specification may not feed or print correctly and may cause damage to your machine.

Labels can be fed from the manual feed slot only.

Types of labels to avoid

Do not use labels that are damaged, curled, wrinkled or an unusual shape.

CAUTION

DO NOT feed part used label sheets. The exposed carrier sheet will damage your machine.
