CHAPTER 1 ABOUT THIS PRINTER 1-13 Special Paper Before using paper with holes, such as organizer sheets, you must fan the stack well to avoid paper jams and misfeeds. Do not use organizer sheets that are stuck together. The glue that is used might cause damage to the printer. Before using any paper, make sure that it is not curled. If it is, you should straighten the paper as much as possible. Feeding curled paper can cause paper jams and misfeeds.
