Understanding paper and specialty media guidelines

Understanding paper and specialty media
guidelines

Print media

is paper, card stock, transparencies, labels, and envelopes. The MFP provides high-quality printing on a variety

of print media. You must consider a number of things concerning print media before you print. This chapter provides
information to help you make print media selections.

For more details about the types of paper and specialty media the MFP supports, see the

Card Stock & Label Guide

available on our Lexmark Web site at

www.lexmark.com

We recommend that you try a limited sample of any paper or specialty media you are considering using with the MFP
before purchasing large quantities.
