Loading Paper 2-9
Thick Paper
One thick paper can be loaded at a time. Some types of paper have
rough edges on the back (those are created when the paper is cut). In
this case, put the paper on a flat place and rub the edges once or twice
with, for example, a ruler to smooth them. Feeding rough edged paper
may cause paper jams.
Colored Paper
Colored paper should satisfy the same conditions as white bond paper.
Refer to Paper Specifications on page 2-2. In addition, the pigments
used in the paper must be able to withstand the heat of fusing during the
printing process (up to 200°C or 392°F).
Preprinted Paper
Preprinted paper should satisfy the same conditions as white bond
paper. Refer to Paper Specifications on page 2-2.The preprinted ink
must be able to withstand the heat of fusing during the printing process,
and must not be affected by silicone oil.
Do not use paper with any kind of surface treatment, such as the type of
paper commonly used for calendars.
Recycled paper
Select recycled paper that meets the same specifications as the white
bond paper except for whiteness. Refer to Paper Specifications on
page 2-2.
Note If the paper jams
even after you smooth it
out, load the paper in
the Manual Feed Tray
with the leading edge
raised up a few
millimeters as shown in
the illustration.
Note Before purchasing recycled paper, test a sample on the
machine and check that the printing quality is satisfactory.
