PAPER FEED, SIZE AND MEDIA SETTING
The process used to fuse (fix) the printed image to the paper involves
a mixture of pressure and heat. Too much heat will cause lightweight
paper to crease or curl and corrugations in transparencies. Too little
heat will cause the image not to fuse fully into heavyweight paper.
