Chapter 6: Storing media
Storing media
Proper storage of media helps ensure trouble-free printing. For
best results:
• Store media in an environment where the temperature is
approximately 21°C (70°F) and the relative humidity is
40%.
• Store cartons of paper on a pallet or shelf, rather than
directly on the floor.
• If you store individual packages of paper out of the origi-
nal carton, make sure they rest on a flat surface so the
edges do not buckle or curl.
• Do not place anything on top of paper packages.
Avoiding
paper jams
If you follow the “Media guidelines” on page 98, you’re well on
your way to trouble-free printing. If you do experience a paper
jam, see page 168 for instructions on clearing the jam.
Here are a few reminders to avoid paper jams:
• Ensure paper guides in trays are properly positioned for
the size paper you have loaded.
• Load only standard-size paper in the trays.
• To load paper in a tray while a job is printing, press the
operator panel
Stop
button and wait for the printer motors
to idle. Remove tray from printer. Load paper and rein-
stall tray. Press
Go
to continue printing.
• Use only recommended media. See page 98 for more
information.
• Do not load wrinkled, creased, or damp paper.
• Flex and straighten paper before loading.
• Do not overload paper trays. Make sure paper stack does
not exceed maximum height indicator located inside the
paper tray. Do not exceed the maximum recommended
media amounts for media placed in the multipurpose
feeder.
• The multipurpose feeder does not have size sensing.
