Printer and paper overview > 21
suitable type is Excellent Gloss (A4, A3, and A3 outsize) for Oki
colour printers.
Envelopes should be free from twist, curl or other deformations.
They should also be of the rectangular flap type, with glue that
remains intact when subjected to hot roll pressure fusing used in
this type of printer. Window envelopes are not suitable.
Transparencies should be of the type designed for use in
copiers and laser printers. In particular, avoid office
transparencies designed for use by hand with marker pens.
These will melt in the fuser and cause damage.
Labels should also be of the type recommended for use in
copiers and laser printers, in which the base carrier page is
entirely covered by labels. Other types of label stock may
damage the printer due to the labels peeling off during the
printing process. Suitable types are:
> Avery White Laser Label types 7162, 7664, 7666 (A4), or
5161 (Letter)
> Kokuyo A693X series (A4) or A650 (B5)
NOTE
Always print a sample to check the output results are
satisfactory.
Printing on glossy paper may have unexpected results:
> Compared with plain paper, glossy paper may often be
printed with a thin toner film over it, or the images may
be printed lighter.
> In a high temperature and high humidity environment, a
thin toner film is likely to occur. Glossy paper is best used
in an environment below 25°C temperature and 60%
humidity.
> Image offsetting may occur particularly if you are
printing high density images or printing several copies.
> Due to its coating, glossy paper may “slip” when being
fed into the printer.
