Paper Recommendations
Note the following suggestions when handling or selecting paper used with this
printer.
Loading paper
Important
❒
Do not use paper that is meant for an ink-jet printer. This paper may stick to
the fusing unit and cause a paper misfeed.
❒
When printing on an OHP transparency that has a print side, load it with the
print side up. Not taking this precaution may cause the OHP transparency to
stick to the fusing unit and cause a misfeed.
• Use only the recommended paper types. Print quality cannot be guaranteed
if other paper types are used.
