Paper Recommendations
Loading Paper
❒ Do not use ink-jet printer paper because it may stick to the fusing unit and
cause a paper misfeed.
❒ When printing on OHP transparencies that have a print side, load them with
the print side over on the bypass tray. Not taking this precaution may cause
them to stick to the fusing unit and cause misfeeds.
❒ Set the paper as described below
• Tray 1, Tray 2: Print side facing up
• Bypass Tray: Print side facing down
• Paper Feed Unit (Option): Print side facing down
❒ Print quality cannot be guaranteed if paper other than the ones recommended
is used. For more information about recommended paper, contact your sales
or service representative.
❒ Do not use paper that has already been printed onto by other printers.
Storing Paper
• Paper should always be stored properly. Improperly stored paper might result
in poor print quality, paper misfeeds, or printer damage. Recommendations
are as follows:
• Avoid storing paper in humid areas.
• Avoid exposing paper to direct sunlight.
• Store on a flat surface.
• Keep paper in the package in which the paper came.

Additional cautions • Check the print side is facing up.
• Check there is no air in the envelopes before loading.
• For better print quality, we recommend the right, left, top, and
bottom print margins to be at least 15 mm (0.6”) each.
• Load only one size and type of envelope at a time.
• When loading envelopes, be sure to unfold the flaps and position them opposite to the paper feed direction.
• Before loading envelopes, flatten their leading edges (the edge
going into the printer) by running a pencil or ruler across them.
• Some kinds of envelope might cause misfeeds, wrinkles or
print poorly.
• Print quality on envelopes may be uneven if parts of an envelope have differing thicknesses. Print one or two envelopes to
check print quality.
Paper not supported by this printer
Avoid using the following paper as they are not supported by this printer.
• Paper meant for an ink-jet printer
• Bent, folded, or creased paper
• Curled or twisted paper
• Torn paper
• Wrinkled paper
• Damp paper
• Paper that is dry enough to emit static electricity
• Paper that has already been printed onto, except a preprinted letterhead.
Malfunctions are especially likely when using paper printed on by other than
a laser printer (e.g. monochrome and color copiers, ink-jet printers, etc.)
