Types of paper to avoid 2
IMPORTANT
Some types of paper may not perform well
or may cause damage to your machine.
DO NOT use paper:
• that is highly textured
• that is extremely smooth or shiny
• that is curled or warped
1 0.08 in. (2mm) or greater curl may
cause jams to occur.
• that is coated or has a chemical finish
• that is damaged, creased or folded
• that exceeds the recommended weight
specification in this guide
• with tabs and staples
• with letterheads using low temperature
dyes or thermography
• that is multipart or carbonless
• that is designed for inkjet printing
If you use any of the types of paper listed
above, they may damage your machine.
This damage is not covered under any
Brother warranty or service agreement.
Envelopes 2
Most envelopes will be suitable for your
machine. However, some envelopes may
have feed and print-quality problems
because of the way they have been made. A
suitable envelope should have edges with
straight, well-creased folds and the leading
edge should not be thicker than two sheets of
paper. The envelope should lie flat and not be
of baggy or flimsy construction. You should
buy quality envelopes from a supplier who
understands that you will be using the
envelopes in a laser machine.
Envelopes can only be fed from the MP tray.
Do not print envelopes using duplex printing.
We recommend that you print a test envelope
to make sure the print results are what you
want before you print or purchase a large
quantity of envelopes.
Check the following:
 Envelopes should have a lengthwise
sealing flap.
 The sealing flaps should be folded crisply
and correctly (irregularly cut or folded
envelopes may cause paper jams).
 Envelopes should consist of two layers of
paper in the area circled in figure below.
1 Feeding direction
 Envelope joints that are sealed by the
manufacturer should be secure.
 We recommend that you do not print
within 0.6 in. (15 mm) of the edges of
envelopes.
