							Media Types 53
Media Types
Before purchasing a large quantity of special media, do a trial print with the 
same media and check the print quality.
Keep media on a flat, level surface in its original wrapper until it is time to 
load it. For a list of approved media, refer to printer.konicaminolta.com.
Plain Paper
Use plain paper that is
#Suitable for plain paper laser printers, such as standard or recycled office 
paper.
Note
Do not use the media types listed below. These could cause poor print 
quality, media misfeeds, or damage to the printer.
DO NOT use media that is
#Coated with a processed surface (such as carbon paper, digitally gloss- 
coated media, and colored paper that has been treated)
#Carbon backed
#Unapproved iron-on transfer media (such as heat-sensitive paper, 
heat-pressure paper, and heat-press transfer paper) 
#Cold-water-transfer paper
#Pressure sensitive
#Designed specifically for inkjet printers (such as superfine paper, glossy 
film, and postcards)
#Already been printed on by another printer, copier, or fax machine
#Dusty
#Wet (or damp) Capacity Tray 1
Up to 200 sheets, depending on the paper 
weight

!Keep media between 35% and 85% relative humidity. Toner does 
not adhere well to moist or wet paper.
#Layered 
#Adhesive
#Folded, creased, curled, embossed, warped, or wrinkled
#Perforated, three-hole punched, or torn 
#Too slick, too coarse, or too textured 
#Different in texture (roughness) on the front and back
#Too thin or too thick
#Stuck together with static electricity
#Composed of foil or gilt; too luminous
#Heat sensitive or cannot withstand the fusing temperature (180°C 
[356°F])
#Irregularly shaped (not rectangular or not cut at right angles)
#Attached with glue, tape, paper clips, staples, ribbons, hooks, or buttons
#Acidic 
#Any other media that is not approved
Thick Stock
Paper thicker than 90 g/m2 (24 lb bond) is referred to as thick stock. Test all 
thick stock to ensure acceptable performance and to ensure that the image 
does not shift. 
!43 lb bond is also referred to as 90 lb index stock. Capacity Tray 1

their thickness

DO NOT use thick stock that is
#Mixed with any other media in the trays (as this will cause printer misfeed-
ing)
Envelopes
Print on the front (address) side only. Some parts of the envelope consist of 
three layers of paper—the front, back, and flap. Anything printed in these lay-
ered regions may be lost or faded.
Use envelopes that are
#Common office envelopes approved for laser printing with diagonal joints, 
sharp folds and edges, and ordinary gummed flaps
!Because the envelopes pass through heated rollers, the gummed 
area on the flaps may seal. Using envelopes with emulsion-based 
glue avoids this problem.
#Approved for laser printing
#Dry 
DO NOT use envelopes that have
#Sticky flaps
#Tape seals, metal clasps, paper clips, fasteners, or peel-off strips for seal-
ing
#Transparent windows
#Too rough of a surface
#Material that will melt, vaporize, offset, discolor, or emit dangerous fumes
#Been presealed Capacity Tray 1  Up to 10 envelopes, depending on their 
thickness

Labels
A sheet of labels consists of a face sheet (the printing surface), adhesive, and 
a carrier sheet:
#The face sheet must follow the plain paper specification.
#The face sheet surface must cover the entire carrier sheet, and no adhe-
sive should come through on the surface.
You can print continuously with label sheets. However, this could affect the 
media feed, depending on the media quality and printing environment. If 
problems occur, stop the continuous printing and print one sheet at a time.
Try printing your data on a sheet of plain paper first to check placement. 
Check your application documentation for more information on printing labels.
Use label sheets that are
#Recommended for laser printers
DO NOT use label sheets that 
#Have labels that easily peel off or have parts of the label already removed
#Have backing sheets that have peeled away or have exposed adhesive
!Labels may stick to the fuser, causing them to peel off and media 
misfeeds to occur.
#Are precut or perforated Capacity Tray 1
  Up to 50 label sheets, depending on their 
thickness
