Premium papers, try to match them as closely as possible for the best printing results.
Premium Color Laser Paper 24 lb. Bond: A bright paper with a super smooth finish for brilliant color
reproduction. Use this for correspondence, proposals, charts, graphs, and illustrations.
Premium Color Laser Paper 60 lb. Cover:
A heavier stock that is ideal for report covers, mailers, greeting
cards and invitations.
Ultra Glossy Color Laser Paper: Has a double-sided glossy finish that is preferred for professional printing
and photographic art. Use this for data sheets, brochures, and client presentations.
Premium Transparency Color Laser Film: Use this for brilliant projected images.

Paper Handling Considerations
Transparency Film:
When you are printing on transparency film, only load the transparencies to the mark
indicated on the paper tray. Ensure that if the transparency has a white strip on one end that it is placed so that
the stripe is towards the front of the printer. If the strip is positioned towards the rear of the printer the sensor
will think it has paper instead of a transparency.
Envelopes:
The printer accepts Commercial 10 and DL envelope sizes. The leading edge of an envelope that
feeds into the printer must be straight. The fold must be firmly creased and be no thicker than two paper
thicknesses. As a rule, the larger the envelope is, the more difficult it is to feed properly. You should load
envelopes with the flap edge to the left. The address side must face up and the flap side must face down.
Adhesive Labels:
Only use adhesive labels that are recommended for use in laser printers.
Heavy Print Stock: Excessive use of heavy stocks may cause premature wear in addition to causing excessive
wear of print mechanisms.
Preprinted Forms: During the print operation, heat applied to preprinted forms can remove ink from the
form and leave residue (called offset) inside the printer. In addition to offset residue problems, ink residues
may generate harmful gases and emissions. Note the following considerations. Tell the commercial printer
who will be printing your forms that you will be using them in a laser printer. Forms should be printed with
heat-resistant inks that do not vaporize or generate harmful emissions at temperatures greater than 392°F
(200°C) for 0.1 second. Do not use paper printed with low-temperature inks, flammable inks, or inks that are
affected by the resin components found in toner.
Care must be taken to avoid changing the moisture content of paper being preprinted or using materials that
change the electrical or handling properties of the paper. Forms should be sealed in moisture-proof wrapping
after pre-printing to prevent moisture changes during storage.
