Handling Paper 2-7
Packaging: Paper should be packed in a sturdy carton to protect it from
damage during transport. Quality paper obtained from a reputable
supplier is usually correctly packaged.
Special Paper
The following types of special paper can be used:
Use paper that is sold specifically for use with copiers or printers (heat-
fusing type). When using transparencies, labels, thin paper, envelopes,
postcards, or thick paper, feed the paper from the MP tray. For details,
refer to Paper Source (Selecting the paper feed source) on page 6-34.
Since the composition and quality of special paper vary considerably,
special paper is more likely than white bond paper to give trouble during
printing. No liability will be assumed if moisture and so forth given off
during printing on special paper causes harm to the machine or operator.
Note You might see the printer emitting steam in the area around
the top tray if you use damp paper, but it is safe to continue
printing.
