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: thin paper, plain paper, thick paper, bond paper, recycled paper, glossy paper, labels or envelopes.

For best results, follow the instructions below:

 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.

 Before you buy a lot of paper, test a small

quantity to make sure the paper is suitable.

 Use paper made for plain paper copying.

Loading paper

IMPORTANT

 Use paper that is 70 to 90 g/m2.  Use long grain paper with a neutral Ph value, and a moisture content of approx. 5%.  This machine can use recycled paper that meets DIN 19309 specifications.

Handling and using special paper 2

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 392 degrees Fahrenheit (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.

 When you are using glossy paper, put only

one sheet at a time in the MP tray to avoid a paper jam.

Types of paper to avoid 2

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 curled or warped

1 A curl of 2 mm or greater may cause

jams to occur.

• 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, they may damage your machine. This damage may not be covered under any Brother warranty or service agreement.

Envelopes 2

Most envelopes designed for laser printers will be suitable for your machine. However, some envelopes may have feed and printquality problems because of the way they have been made. A suitable envelope should have edges with straight, well-creased folds. 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.

We recommend that you print a test envelope to make sure the print results are what you want.

Chapter 2

IMPORTANT

Types of envelopes to avoid 2

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 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 may not be covered under any Brother warranty or service agreement.

Labels 2

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.
