Paper Handling Precautions

Paper Handling
  • Read the instruction sheets supplied with the paper.

  • Fan and align the edges of the paper before loading.

  • If the paper is curled, flatten it or curl it slightly in the opposite direction before loading. Printing on curled paper may cause paper jams and smears on the printout.

  • If the flap is on the short edge, make sure you include the flap when setting the user-defined size.

  • If the envelopes are curled, flatten them or curl them slightly in the opposite direction before loading. Printing on curled envelopes may cause paper jams and smears on the printout.

  • Fan and align the edges of the envelopes before loading. When the stacked envelopes are puffed up with air, press them down to flatten them before loading.

Paper Storage

Notice the following when storing papers.

  • Seal the rest of papers in a plastic bag to avoid absorbing moisture.

  • Keep in a place with less humidity. Also, do not wet the paper.

  • Keep away from direct sunlight.

  • Do not stand papers, place it on a flat.

Note:

Although you store papers as mentioned above, the deterioration of print quality or paper jams may occur depending on the environment. Before using stored paper, try printing a small amount of paper and check for paper jams or smears on the printout.
