Print Media Guidelines
Unacceptable Print Media
•
Chemically treated paper used to make copies without carbon paper, also known as
carbonless paper, carbonless copy paper (CCP), or no carbon required (NCR) paper.
•
Preprinted paper with chemicals that may contaminate the printer.
•
Preprinted paper that can be affected by the temperature in the fusing unit.
•
Preprinted paper that requires a registration (the precise print location on the page)
greater than ±0.09 inches, such as optical character recognition (OCR) forms.
In some cases, you can adjust registration with your software program to successfully
print on these forms.
•
Coated paper (erasable bond), synthetic paper, and thermal paper.
•
Rough-edged, rough or heavily textured surface paper, or curled paper.
•
Recycled paper containing more than 25 % post-consumer waste that does not meet
DIN 19 309.
•
Multiple-part forms or documents.
•
Print quality may deteriorate (blank spaces or blotches may appear in the text) when
printing on talc or acid paper.
Recommended Print Media
•
For the best print quality and feed reliability, use 75 g/m
2
(20 lb) xerographic paper.
•
Business paper designed for general business use also provides acceptable print
quality. Only use paper able to withstand high temperatures without discoloring,
bleeding, or releasing hazardous emissions. The laser printing process heats paper to
high temperatures. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to determine whether the
paper you have chosen is acceptable for laser printers.
Recommended Pre-Printed Media and Letterheads
•
Use grain long paper for best results.
•
Use only forms and letterheads printed using an offset lithographic or engraved
printing process.
•
Select paper that absorb ink, but does not bleed.
•
Avoid paper with rough or heavily textured surfaces.
•
Use paper printed with heat-resistant inks designed for use in xerographic copying
machines. The ink must withstand temperatures of 225 °C (437 °F) without melting or
releasing hazardous emissions.
•
Use inks that are not affected by the resin in the toner or the silicone in the fusing
unit. Inks that are oxidation-set or oil-based should meet these requirements; latex
inks might not. If you are in doubt, contact your paper supplier.
Recommended Pre-Punched Print Media
•
Paper should be punched at the paper manufacturer and not drilled into paper
already packaged in a ream. Drilled paper can cause jams when multiple sheets feed
through the printer.
•
Pre-punched paper can include more paper dust than standard paper. Your printer
may require more frequent cleaning and feed reliability may not be as good as
standard paper.
