Paper roll
• If humidity is high, and the paper roll has expanded due to moisture, be sure
to cut off approximately 1000 mm (40"), before making copies.
• Use a paper roll that has a black core.
• When a paper roll of 90 g/m
2
(24 lb) or 110 g/m
2
(29.3 lb) paper is used and
there is little paper left on the roll, copies may be faint near the leading and/or
trailing edge, or an image may be doubled. To prevent this, set 3-5 mm (0.11"-
0.19") margins from the leading and trailing edges.
Cut paper
• Straighten curled or warped paper before loading.
• To prevent multiple-sheet fed simultaneously, fan the paper before loading it
in the tray.
• Do not load paper over the limit mark of the paper tray.
• Make sure the paper edges of the sheets are aligned to the front of the paper
tray.
• Load translucent paper lengthways when possible.
• If the output copies are badly curled, turn the paper loaded in the cut paper
trays upside down, or remove the copies during the copy run.
When copying translucent paper from the paper bypass
Smooth out any curls in the paper before loading it.
Load translucent paper lengthways when possible.
Hemmed paper
When using hemmed paper, wrinkles and other problems may occur on copies.
Use the following procedure when copying onto hemmed paper:
• Copy from the paper bypass.
• Make sure the paper is straight, and align the paper guides of the paper by-
pass to the paper size.
• Load only one sheet at a time.
• Remove each copy from the output tray and place it on a flat surface.
Note
❒
Due to the thickness of hemmed paper, copies may be faint, blurred, or wrin-
kled, and paper jams may occur. You may be able to prevent this by copying
on the rear surface of the paper or feeding the bottom of the paper in first.
