PAPER
When printing on paper with pre-printed lines and tables, the 
print may not appear where expected within the lines and table 
frames due to paper feed effects or misaligned paper setting. 
Note the following points when using pre-printed paper.
> Carry out adequate test prints initially to ensure that 
there is no problem with the print quality.
> Make sure that there is no wet ink or ink that has not 
completely dried on the pre-printed sheets, to prevent 
pieces of paper from sticking to each other.
> Do not use pre-printed sheets with print margins at the 
maximum possible printable margin positions.
