Your printer is designed to be used with a variety of paper types. For more information about 
supported papers, go to

Other media types can cause poor print quality, increased paper jams, or damage to your 
printer. 

Following are examples of unacceptable paper:

Rough or porous media

Paper that has been photocopied

Paper with cutouts or perforations

Paper with staples inserted

damage the printer.
