COLOR MATERIALS USAGE GUIDE
If the wrapper on a ream of paper is not marked with an arrow
showing the wire side of the paper, the side of the paper facing
the seam of the package is the wire side. Or, you can
determine the curl side by holding a one-half inch stack of
paper by one of the short edges.
Let the paper hang with the long edge parallel to your body.
Either the lower edge or the two side edges will curl slightly
toward the center. Observe which way the edge or edges curl.
This is the curl side.
Paper handling and copy curl performance vary with room
temperature, humidity, paper quality, and the image area on
the copies. All of these variables interact, and, in some
situations, you must experiment to determine which paper
loading method provides the best performance.
Paper feeding hints
If persistent paper feeding problems occur, one of the
following hints may help:
–
Turn over the paper in the tray and make the copies again.
If feeding performance is improved, continue to load the
paper in this manner.
– Open a fresh ream of paper. Load the fresh paper and run
the job again. If the paper jams stop, discard the paper that
was causing the jams.
– Occasionally, the top sheets of a newly opened ream will
curl in the opposite direction to that of the remaining sheets
in the ream, indicating that the paper is adjusting to the
humidity level in the room. To obtain consistent curl for all
sheets in the ream, allow the opened ream to remain in the
room until all the sheets have acclimated to the
environmental conditions.
– Change the paper feed orientation. For example, if feeding
long-edge first (LEF), try feeding short-edge first (SEF).
