Handling and Storing Media
Handling Media
Do not use media that has been folded, creased, or heavily curled. It may result in
paper jams.
Storing Media
The optimum environment for storing media is a place where the humidity is 40 to 45%.
Keep the following points in mind when storing media.

wrapping and store it in a comparatively dry place. Vellum especially should be put
into a plastic or moisture-proof bag.

accordingly.
