Recommended Paper Sizes and Types
This section describes recommended paper sizes and types.
• If you use damp or curled paper, a staple clogging or paper jam may occur.
• Do not use paper designed for inkjet printers, as these may stick to the fusing unit and cause a
misfeed.
• When you load OHP transparencies, check the front and back of the sheets, and place them
correctly, or a misfeed might occur.
• For details about and recommendations concerning thick paper, see p.144 "Thick Paper".
• For details about various details about and recommendations concerning envelopes, see p.145
"Envelopes".
