Recommended print media
To get the best print quality, we suggest using Brother paper. (See the table below.)
If Brother paper is not available in your country, we recommend testing various papers before
purchasing large quantities.
We recommend using "3M Transparency Film" when you print on transparencies.

Handling and using print media
• Store paper in its original packaging and keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from
moisture, direct sunlight and heat.
• Avoid touching the shiny (coated) side of the photo paper.
• Avoid touching either side of the transparency paper because they absorb water and
perspiration easily, and this may cause decreased output quality. Transparencies
designed for laser printers/copiers may stain your next document. Use only transparencies
recommended for inkjet printing.
