General Guidelines for Selecting or Loading Print Media
Attempting  to  print  on damp,  curled,  wrinkled,  or torn paper can  cause paper jams  and  poor  print  quality.
Use  only  high-quality,  copier-grade paper for the best print  quality.
Avoid  paper with embossed lettering, perforations,  or a  texture that  is too  smooth or rough. Paper  jams  may occur.
Store paper in its  packaging  until you are ready  to  use it.  Place  cartons on pallets or shelves,  not on the floor.
Do not place  heavy  objects  on top of the media,  whether  or not it  is packaged.
Keep  paper away  from  moisture  or other conditions  that  can  cause it  to  wrinkle  or curl.
Store unused paper at temperatures  ranging between  15°C  and  30°C  (59°F  and  86°F). The  relative  humidity should be
between  10%  and  70%.
During  storage, you should use moisture -proof  wrap, such as a  plastic container  or bag, to  prevent  dust  and  moisture
from  contaminating the paper.
Avoiding Jams and Misfeeds
You  can  avoid  most jams  and  misfeeds by following these guidelines:
Use  paper that  follows the printers media guidelines. For  more  information, see  Loading  Paper.
Make sure  that  the paper is properly  loaded in the input tray.
Do not overload the input tray.
Do not remove paper from  the input tray  while  printing.
Flex, fan, and  straighten  the paper before loading.
Do not use creased, damp,  or curled paper.
Orient  the paper according to  the instructions for the printer.

							It is recommended that  you clear  the entire  paper path  when  a  paper jam  occurs.
