Chapter 5 Paper Selection
This chapter explains the following topics:
• General Guidelines
• Special Paper
• Paper Type
The printer is designed to print on high-quality copier bond paper
(the kind used in ordinary dry copier machines), but it can also
accept a variety of other types of paper within the limits specified
below.
The manufacturer assumes no liability for problems that occur
when paper not satisfying these requirements is used.
Selection of the right paper is important. Using the wrong paper
can result in paper jams, misfeeding, curling, poor print quality,
and paper waste, and in extreme cases can damage the printer.
The guidelines given below will increase the productivity of your
office by ensuring efficient, trouble-free printing and reducing
wear and tear on the printer.
Most types of paper are compatible with a variety of machines.
Paper intended for xerographic copiers can also be used with
the printer.
There are three general grades of paper: economy, standard,
and premium. The most significant difference between grades is
the ease with which they pass through the printer. This is affect-
ed by the smoothness, size, and moisture content of the paper,
and the way in which the paper is cut. The higher the grade of
paper you use, the less risk there will be of paper jams and other
problems, and the higher the level of quality your printed output
will reflect.
Differences between paper from different suppliers can also af-
fect the printer’s performance. A high-quality printer cannot pro-
duce high-quality results when the wrong paper is used. Low-
priced paper is not economical in the long run if it causes printing
problems.
Paper in each grade is available in a range of basis weights (de-
fined later). The traditional standard weights are 16, 20, and 28
pounds (60 to 105 g/m

).
The following table summarizes the basic paper specifications.
Details are given on the following pages.
Laser printing is a process involving laser light, electrostatic dis-
charge, toner, and heat. In addition, as the paper passes through
the printer it undergoes considerable sliding, bending, and twist-
ing motions. A high-quality printing paper matching the printer’s
requirements withstands all these stresses, enabling the printer
to turn out clean, crisp printed copies consistently.
Remember that all paper is not the same. Some of the factors to
consider when selecting paper for the printer are as follows:
Condition of the Paper
Avoid using paper that is bent at the edges, curled, dirty, torn,
embossed, or contaminated with lint, clay, or paper shreds.
Use of paper in these conditions can lead to illegible printing,
misfeeding, and paper jams, and can shorten the life of the print-
er. In particular, avoid using paper with a surface coating or other
surface treatment. The paper should have as smooth and even
a surface as possible.
