2.2 Selecting the Right Paper

2.2

Selecting the Right Paper

To get clean, crisp printouts from laser printers all the time, select high-quality printer paper
that meets the printer’s requirements. Laser printers use laser beams, electrostatic discharge,
toner, and heat, all of which affect the paper. Furthermore, paper slide, bends, and twists as
it passes through laser printers during printing. Therefore, printer paper must be able to
withstand such great stress.

This section describes the major considerations for selecting the right printing paper.

2.2.1

Guidelines

Paper conditions

Do not use paper with folded edges, curls, warps, smudges, tears, or embossing. Also do
not use paper containing lint, clay, or paper debris. Using such paper may cause illegible
printing, misfeeds, paper jams, etc., and shorten the product life of the printer. Never use
paper with surface coating or other surface treatment. The paper surface should be as
smooth and even as possible.

Paper composition

Do not use paper with surface-coating or containing plastic or carbon. The heat of fusing
causes such paper to emit toxic fumes.

Bond paper should have at least an 80 % pulp content. The percentage of cotton and other
fibers should not exceed 20 %.

Paper sizes

Table 2-3

lists the standard paper sizes and dimensions. Note that certain paper sizes are

available only for MP tray feeding (as remarked) and face-up tray delivering. For details on
using MP tray, see

The dimensional tolerances for these paper sizes are

±

0.7 mm (
