Tips on Paper Handling
General Tips
Use high-quality paper. Do not use paper that is wrinkled or curled at the edges.
Do not use paper with staples or metal parts.
Do not use paper with unpredictable variations in thickness, such as paper with
partial multilayers, paper with embossed printing, or labels with the backing
sheet exposed.
Store paper in a clean, dry environment.
Multipart Forms
Avoid using carbon-interleaved single sheets if possible. Printing tends to be-
come misaligned on the bottom sheet.
Set the paper thickness lever to best accommodate the multipart form thickness.
To ensure smoother feeding of paper-stapled, multipart forms, raise the cut sheet
stand to support the forms.
Envelopes
When printing envelopes, use the cut sheet stand. Note the following:
Set the paper thickness lever to best accommodate the envelope thickness.
When loading envelopes, make sure that the envelope flaps face forward. Other-
wise, the envelopes may jam in the printer.
Labels
Be careful to check operating conditions when using labels. Labels are sensitive
to temperature and humidity.
Only use labels mounted on continuous forms backing sheets. Do not print labels
mounted on single sheet backing. Labels mounted on single sheet backing tend to
slip and printing becomes crooked.
Do not leave labels loaded in the printer. If labels curl around the platen, jamming
may occur when printing is resumed.
Set the paper thickness lever to best accommodate the label thickness.
