Setting Up Your MultiPASS C50 Chapter 2
Loading the Print Media
Keep the following in mind when selecting or loading media for your
MultiPASS C50:
❏
You can stack plain paper, envelopes, and other media in the
MultiPASS C50’s sheet feeder. The maximum size of the stack
depends on the medium:
Medium Maximum stack size
Plain paper 100 sheets
(maximum 10 mm stack height)
Envelopes 10 envelopes
Transparencies 50 sheets
Back print film 10 sheets
❏
To avoid paper jams and poor print quality, never try to print on
damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper.
❏
Store paper and other media flat, and leave it in its wrapper until
you are ready to use it. Store unused paper from opened packs in
the original packing in a cool, dry location.
❏
Store paper at 18°–24°C, 40%–60% relative humidity.
❏
If you have trouble with sheets skewing, double-feeding, or
jamming when using coated paper, transparencies, or back print
film in the sheet feeder, use manual feeding instead. (These
problems are more common at cooler temperatures.)
❏
Let the paper run out before you refill the sheet feeder. Avoid
mixing “new” paper with paper remaining in the sheet feeder.
❏
Use cut-sheet paper only, not paper that comes on a roll (like fax
paper).
❏
When using graph paper, the lines may not match because the
4.23 mm line spacing of the MultiPASS C50 is slightly less than that
of graph paper.
❏
If the print density of your page is very high, light paper stock may
curl slightly due to the large amount of ink. If you need to print
dense graphics, try printing on heavier stock.
❏
Do not use paper that is thicker than specified for the MultiPASS
C50. Printing with a paper that is thick enough to come in contact
with the print head nozzles may damage the BJ cartridge. For
complete paper specifications, see “Printer” on page A-6.
