•
Do not mix print media sizes, weights, or types in the same source. This
may result in a paper jam.
•
Ensure that the paper is properly loaded in the MPF.
•
Flex paper back and forth, and then fan them. Straighten the edges of the
stack on a level surface.
Selecting Preprinted Media and Letterhead
When selecting preprinted media and letterhead paper for the printer:
•
Use grain long paper for best results.
•
Use only forms and letterhead printed using an offset lithographic or
engraved printing process.
•
Select paper that absorb ink, but do not bleed.
•
Avoid paper with rough or heavily textured surfaces.
•
Use paper printed with heat-resistant inks designed for use in xerographic
copiers. The ink must withstand temperatures of 225°C (437°F) without
melting or releasing hazardous emissions.
•
Use inks that are not affected by the resin in toner or the silicone in the
fuser. Inks that are oxidation-set or oil-based should meet these
requirements; latex inks might not. If you are in doubt, contact your paper
supplier.
Printing on Letterhead
Check with the manufacturer or vendor to determine whether the pre-printed
letterhead you have selected is acceptable for laser printers.
