Preparing print media for use
After purchasing print media, you might have to prepare it for use. Print media needs some
time to stabilize in a new environment. To prepare print media, keep it in its protective
packaging and store it in the environment in which it will be used. For small quantities,
such as one or two reams, store the print media for one to two days. For larger quantities
or if the change in the environment is significant, a week or more might be needed.
If print media is not properly prepared, the edges in the ream can become wavy or the
sheets might curl soon after the package is opened.
Using paper
“Plain paper” is an inaccurate term. All papers are designed and manufactured for a
specific use. Papers that are designed for the electrophotographic process that laser
printer and copy machines use are usually called laser- or copier-grade papers.
High-quality laser and copier papers are usually made from 100 percent chemical wood
pulp and are characterized by a smooth surface, controlled electrical properties, heat
stability, and cleanliness. These characteristics ensure good image transfer, fusing without
excessive curl, and reliable printer operation.
Note Paper is being produced with higher filler levels, and the small particulate that is used for
the fillers (such as calcium carbonate, clay, or talc) must be properly bound or sealed in the
sheet during the paper-making process to prevent contamination of the printer. For more
information, see “Coated paper” on page 6.
Some print jobs require a paper that has a more prestigious look or feel. Letterhead
papers generally have a watermark and often use cotton fiber. These papers tend to have
a rougher surface, and their properties might not be controlled as well as those of
photocopier papers. Although your HP LaserJet printer will print black satisfactorily on
many of these bond papers, using this type of paper with an HP color LaserJet printer can
degrade color print quality. However, paper manufacturers are now making laser-grade
bond papers, which have properties that are optimized for laser printing.
