Paper Storage Guidelines
Store paper in dark, cool, relatively dry locations. Most paper is susce\
ptible to damage from ultraviolet and 
visible light. Ultraviolet light, which is emitted by the sun and fluore\
scent bulbs, is particularly damaging to 
paper.
The intensity and length of exposure to visible light on paper should be\
 reduced as much as possible.
Maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.
Avoid storing paper in attics, kitchens, garages, or basements. These sp\
aces are more likely to collect 
moisture.
Store paper flat, either on pallets, cartons, shelves, or in cabinets.
Avoid having food or drinks in the area where paper is stored or handled\
.
Do not open sealed packages of paper until you are ready to load them in\
to the printer. Leave stored paper 
in the original packaging. The paper wrapper usually contains an inner l\
ining that protects the paper from 
moisture loss or gain.
Some specialty media is packaged inside resealable plastic bags. Store t\
he media inside the bag until you ar
e
ready to use it. Keep unused media in the bag and reseal it for protecti\
on.
Providing good storage conditions for your paper and other media contrib\
utes to optimum printquality.
