Handling Paper
General Guidelines
The machine is designed to print on standard copier paper (the type used in ordinary
dry copier machines), but it can also accept a variety of other types of paper within
the limits specified below.
Note : The manufacturer assumes no liability for problems that occur when paper not
satisfying these requirements is used.
Selection of the right paper is important. Using the wrong paper can result in paper
jams,curling,poorprint quality,and paper waste,and inextreme casescandamage
the machine. The guidelines given below will increase the productivity of your office
by ensuring efficient, trouble-free printing and reducing wear and tear on the
machine.
Paper Availability
Most types of paper are compatible with a variety of machines. Paper intended for
xerographic copiers can also be used with the machine.
There are three general grades of paper: economy, standard, and premium. The
most significant difference between gradesis the ease with which they pass through
the machine. This is affected by the smoothness, size, and moisture content of the
paper, and the way in which the paper is cut. The higher the grade of paper you use,
the less risk there will be of paper jams and other problems, and the higher the level
of quality your printed output will reflect.
Differences between paper from different suppliers can also affect the machine’s
performance. A high-quality printer cannot produce high-quality results when the
wrong paper is used. Low-priced paper is not economical in the long run if it causes
printing problems.
Paper in each grade is available in a range of basis weights (defined later). The
traditional standard weights are 60 to 105 g/m² (16 to 28 pounds).

Handling Paper
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. In particular, avoid using paper with a surface
coatingorother surfacetreatment.Papershould haveassmooth andevenasurface
as possible.
Composition
Do not use paper that has been coated or surface-treated and contains plastic or
carbon. The heat of fusing can cause such paper to give off harmful fumes.
Bond paper should contain at least 80 % pulp. Not more than 20% of the total paper
content should consist of cotton or other fibers.

Handling Paper
Paper Sizes
Cassettes andthe MP Tray are available for the paper sizes listed inthe table below.
The dimensional tolerances are ±0.7mm (±0.0276 inches) for the length and width.
The angle at the corners must be 90° ±0.2°.
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).
Paper that is too heavy or too light may cause feed errors or paper jams as well as
premature wear of the product. Uneven weight of paper, namely uneven paper
thickness may cause multiple-sheet feeding or print quality problems such as
blurring because of poor toner fusing.
The recommended basis weight is between 60 and 120 g/m² for the cassette and
between 45 and 220 g/m² for the MP tray.

Handling Paper
Paper Weight Equivalence Table
The paper weight is listed in pounds (lb) and metric grams per square meter (g/m²).
The shaded part indicates the standard weight.
Thickness
The paper used with the machine should be neither extremely thick nor extremely
thin. If you are having problems with paper jams, multiple feeds, and faint printing,
the paper you are using may be too thin. If you are having problems with paper jams
and blurred printing the paper may be too thick.
The correct thickness is 0.086 to 0.110mm (3.4 to 4.3 mils).
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.
Themoisture contentofthepapervarieswiththerelative humidityinthe room.When
the relative humidity is high and the paper absorbs moisture, the paper edges
expand, becoming wavy in appearance. When the relative humidity is low and the
paper loses moisture, the edges shrink and tighten, and print contrast may suffer.

2-7
Handling Paper
Wavy ortight edges can cause jams andalignment anomalies. The moisture content
of the paper should be 4 to 6 %.
To ensure correct moisture content, it is important to store the paper in a controlled
environment. Some tips on moisture control are:
• Store paper in a cool, dry location.
• Keep the paper in its wrapping as long as possible. Re-wrap paper that is not in
use.
• Store paper in its original carton. Place a pallet etc. under the carton to separate
it from the floor.
• After removing paper from storage, let it stand in the same room as the
machine for 48 hours before use.
• Avoid leaving paper where it is exposed to heat, sunlight, or damp.
Paper Grain
When paper is manufactured, it is cut into sheets with the grain running parallel to
the length (long grain) or parallel to the width (short grain). Short grain paper can
cause feeding problems in the machine. All paper used in the machine should be
long grain.
Other Paper Properties
Porosity: Indicates the density of paper fiber.
Stiffness: Limp paper may buckle in the machine, resulting in paper jams.
Curl: Most paper naturally tends to curl one way if left unpacked. When paper
passes through the fixing unit, it curls upward a little. To produce flat printouts, load
the paper so that the upward pressure from the machine can correct their curling.
Electrostatic discharge: During the printing process the paper is electrostatically
charged to attract the toner. The paper must be able to release this charge so that
printed sheets do not cling together in the Output Tray.
Whiteness:The contrastoftheprintedpage dependsonthewhitenessof thepaper.
Whiter paper provides a sharper, brighter appearance.
Quality control: Uneven sheet size, corners that are not square, ragged edges,
welded (uncut) sheets, and crushed edges and corners can cause the machine to
malfunction in various ways. A quality paper supplier should take considerable care
to ensure that these problems do not occur.
Packaging: Paper should be packed in a sturdy carton to protect it from damage
duringtransport.Qualitypaperobtainedfroma reputablesupplierisusuallycorrectly
packaged.

Handling Paper
Special Paper
The following types of special paper can be used:
Use paper that is sold specifically for use with copiers or printers (heatfusing type).
Whenusingtransparencies,labels, thinpaper, envelopes,postcards, orthick paper,
feed the paper from the MP Tray.
Since the composition and quality of special paper vary considerably, special paper
is more likely than white bond paper to give trouble during printing. No liability will be
assumed if moisture and so forth given off during printing on special paper causes
harm to the machine or operator.
Note : Before purchasing any type of special paper, test a sample on the machine and
check that printing quality is satisfactory.

Handling Paper
Transparency
Transparencies must be able to withstand the heat of fusing during the printing
process. The recommended transparency product is 3M PP2500 (Letter, A4).
Transparencies must be placed on the MP tray with the long edge towards the
printer.
When unloading transparencies (e.g., for clearing jams), hold them carefully by the
edges to avoid leaving fingerprints on them.
Labels
Labels must be fed from the MP Tray.
The basic rule for printing on adhesive labels is that the adhesive must never come
into contact with any part of the machine. Adhesive paper sticking to the drum or
rollers will damage the machine.
Label paper has a structure comprising of
threelayers,asshowninthe diagram.Thetop
sheet is printed on. The adhesive layer
consists of pressuresensitive adhesives. The
carrier sheet (also called the linear or backing
sheet) holds the labels until used. Due to the
complexity of its composition,
adhesivebacked label paper is particularly
likely to give printing problems.
Adhesive label paper must be entirely covered by its top sheet, with no spaces
between the individual labels. Labels with spaces in between are liable to peel off,
causing serious paper jam problems.

Handling Paper
Some label paper is manufactured with an extra margin of top sheet around the
edge. Do not remove the extra top sheet from the carrier sheet until after printing is
finished.
The table below lists the specifications for adhesive label paper.
Postcards
Fan the stack of postcards
and align the edges before
loading them in the MP tray.
Make sure the postcards you
are going to set are not
curled. Feeding curled
postcards may cause paper
jams.
Some postcards have rough edges on the back (those are created when the paper
is cut). In this case, put the postcards on a flat place and rub the edges with, for
example, a ruler to smooth them.

Handling Paper
Envelopes
Envelopes should be fed in the face-up
position, right edge first.
Sincethecompositionof anenvelopeis
more complex than that of ordinary
paper, it is not always possible to
ensure consistent printing quality over
the entire envelope surface.
Normally, envelopes have a diagonal
grain direction. See “Paper Grain”,
page 2-7. This direction can easily
cause wrinkles and creases when
envelopes pass through the printer. Before purchasing envelopes, make a test print
to check whether the printer accepts the envelope.
• Do not use envelopes that have an encapsulated liquid adhesive.
• Avoid a long printing session for envelopes only. Extended envelope printing
can cause premature printer wear.
• If jams occur, try setting a lesser number of envelopes on the MP tray.
• To avoid jams caused by curled envelopes, stack no more than 10 printed
envelopes on the output tray.
Thick Paper
Fanthe stackof paperand alignthe edgesbefore loadingtheminthe MPtray. 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 rubthe edges once or twice with,
for example, a ruler to smooth them.
Feeding rough edged paper may cause paper jams.
Note : If the paper jams even after you
smooth it out, load the paper in the
MP Tray with the leading edge
raised up a few millimeters as
shown in the illustration.

Handling Paper
Colored Paper
Colored paper should satisfy the same conditions as white bond paper, See “Paper
Specifications”, page 2-3. In addition, the pigments used in the paper must be able
to withstand the heat of fusing during the printing process (up to 200°C or 392°F).
Preprinted Paper
Preprinted paper should satisfy the same conditions as white bond paper, See
“Paper Specifications”, page 2-3. The preprinted ink must be able to withstand the
heat of fusing during the printing process, and must not be affected by silicone oil.
Do not use paper with any kind of surface treatment, such as the type of paper
commonly used for calendars.
Recycled paper
Select recycled paper that meets the same specifications as the white bond paper
except for whiteness, See “Paper Specifications”, page 2-3.
Note : Before purchasing recycled paper, test a sample on the machine and check that the
printing quality is satisfactory.

Handling Paper
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 operator panel will
cause the printer to automatically select the paper source and print in the mode best
suited to that type of paper.
A different paper type setting can be made for each paper source including the MP
tray. Not only can preset paper types be selected, but it is also possible for you to
define and select customized paper types. See “Creating Custom Paper Type”,
page 3-59. The following types of paper can be used.
