Selecting Paper
For best results, use paper made especially for laser printers. Paper
made for plain-paper copiers is also a good choice.
If you want to use less expensive paper, test it thoroughly before
regular use. Paper should be of good quality, relatively smooth, and
readily available. Also, keep in mind that if the paper is textured or
too rough, your printed output may not be as clear.
Special paper - You can use colored or three-hole punched paper
as long as it meets the weight limits given above for standard office
paper. However, do not use coated paper.
Labels - Use only labels designed for laser printers or plain-paper
copiers in your printer. When printing labels, you should use the
faceup output tray; this keeps the labels from curling or coming off
their backing sheet. (Face-up printing is described in the section on
paper delivery choices.)
To prevent the adhesive from coming into contact with printer
parts, use only labels that completely cover the backing sheet so that
there are no gaps.
You should also test the label sheet for leaking adhesive by pressing
an ordinary sheet of paper on top of a sheet of labels. If the paper
sticks at all, the labels should not be used.
Other materials - You can use overhead projector transparencies
and adhesive drafting film if they are made for use with plain-paper
copiers or laser printers. These materials should be ejected face-up
into the face-up paper tray.
