Appendix-4 ADVANCED OPERATION GUIDE
Paper Size
Cassettes and the MP Tray are available for the paper sizes listed in the
table below. The dimensional tolerances are ±0.7 mm (±0.0276 inches) for
the length and width. The angle at the corners must be 90° ±0.2°.
Smoothness
The paper should have a smooth, uncoated surface. Paper with a rough or
sandy surface can cause voids in the printed output. Paper that is too
smooth can cause multiple feeding and fogging problems. (Fogging is a
gray background effect.)
Basis Weight
Basis weight is the weight of a standard quantity of paper. In the traditional
system the standard quantity is a ream consisting of 500 sheets measuring
17 × 22 inches each. In the metric system the standard quantity is 1 square
meter.
Paper that is too light or too heavy can cause jams and premature wear of
the machine. Uneven paper weight can cause multiple feeds, print defects,
poor toner fusing, blurring, and other print quality problems. The correct
weight is 60 to 105 g/m² for the Cassettes, and 60 to 163 g/m² for the MP
Tray.
