Paper Storage Guidelines
Storing your paper and other media properly contributes to optimum print quality.
•
Store paper in dark, cool, relatively dry locations. Most paper is susceptible to damage from
ultraviolet and visible light. Ultraviolet light, from the sun and fluorescent bulbs, is particularly
damaging to paper.
•
Reduce the exposure of paper to strong lights for long periods of time.
•
Maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.
•
Avoid storing paper in attics, kitchens, garages, or basements. These spaces are more likely to collect
moisture.
•
Store paper flat, either on pallets, cartons, shelves, or in cabinets.
