Use of media
125
Storing and handling media
Temperature & Humidity
Changes in humidity cause paper media to expand or
contract due to the amount of moisture in the air. Media stored in one
environment and then moved to another may cause problems when printing
because the media did not have time to adjust to the new environment.
Take the following precautions to avoid problems:
■
store the media near the printer if possible
■
take media out of the packaging and allow it to adjust to the same
environment as the printer for a minimum of two days
■
air conditioning or humidity control is highly recommended if you have a
high humidity level
■
use film media if dimensional stability is very important
Heat & Light
All media are sensitive to extreme heat and ultraviolet light and
therefore should not be exposed to strong sunlight. Store away from light in a
dark room or cupboard.
Dirt & Fingerprints
The print quality of media, and especially film media, is
degraded by perspiration, fingerprints and dirt. If necessary, wear cotton gloves
to manipulate the rolls or sheets.
