Handling Paper
Special Paper
The following types of special paper can be used:
Use paper that is sold specifically for use with copiers or printers (heat-
fusing type). When using transparencies, labels, thin paper, envelopes,
postcards, or thick paper, feed the paper from the
MP tray
. For details,
refer to
Paper Source (Selecting the paper feed source) on page 4-37
.
Since the composition and quality of special paper vary considerably,
special paper is more likely than white bond paper to give trouble during
printing. No liability will be assumed if moisture and so forth given off
during printing on special paper causes harm to the machine or operator.
Transparency
Transparencies must be able to withstand the heat of fusing during the
printing process. The recommended transparency product is 3M CG3700
(Letter, A4).
