CHAPTER Print Media Requirements2-1 2Paper Handling This chapter describes the media you can use with this machine, how to load them, and where the documents come out. Print Media Requirements Storing Paper The quality of paper may deteriorate if it is stored improperly even when the paper meets the normal specifications. Deteriorated paper may cause misfeeds, paper jams, or deterioration in print quality. Observe the following guidelines for storing and handling paper: IMPORTANT •Store paper away from moisture since paper quality deteriorates in a moist environment. •Paper wrappers are moisture-proof. Keep paper in the wrapper until it is ready to be used. Store all unused paper in a wrapper. •Store paper on a flat surface to prevent it from creasing or curling. •Do not store paper on the floor where water and moisture can accumulate. •Avoid physical damage to stored paper. •Do not store a paper stack vertically or leaning on another object. •Avoid direct sunlight and moisture when storing paper. •If the paper storage room and work area differ significantly in temperature or humidity, keep the paper in the work area for at least one day prior to printing so that it can adapt to the new environment. When paper is moved to a location that differs significantly in temperature or humidity, it may curl or get creased. (:0*ç
Print Media Requirements2-2 Paper Handling 2 Storing Color Print Paper When handling or storing color printouts printed by this machine, be careful of the following points: IMPORTANT •Avoid storing color prints with PVC materials such as clear folders. Toner may come off and stick to the PVC material. •Use insoluble adhesive when gluing color prints. Toner may melt when insoluble adhesive is used. Before using the adhesive, test it with paper that is no longer required. •Confirm that the color prints are completely dry before placing one over another. Prints may stick if they are placed together half-dried. •Store color prints on a flat surface to avoid creasing or curling. Toner may peel off when they are folded or creased. •Avoid storing color prints at high temperatures. Otherwise toner may melt and blot. •Put color prints in a binder when storing them for a long period of time (more than two years). Color prints may discolor when they are stored for a long period of time. ■Unacceptable Paper Do not copy on the following types of copy stock. Doing so may result in paper jams. •Severely curled or wrinkled paper •Transparencies designed for full-color copiers or printers •Paper which has already been copied using a digital full-color copier (Do not copy on the reverse side.) •Paper which has been printed on using a thermal transfer printer (Do not copy on the reverse side.) IMPORTANT Never attempt to make copies on full-color transparencies. Doing so may result in machine malfunction. ■Acceptable Paper * Only for the multi-purpose tray.
