Non-Recommended Paper Types

Important

  • Do not use the following types of paper:

    • Ink-jet printer paper

    • GelJet special paper

    • Bent, folded, or creased paper

    • Curled or twisted paper

    • Wet paper

    • Paper that is dry enough to emit static electricity

    • Paper that has already been printed onto, except a preprinted letterhead paper.

      Malfunctions are especially likely when using paper printed on by other than a laser printer (e.g.monochrome and color copiers, ink-jet printers, etc.)

    • Surface-processed paper (excluding specified paper)

    • Special paper, such as thermal paper and carbon paper

    • Paper whose weight is heavier or lighter than the limitation

    • Perforated paper

    • Adhesive label paper on which glue or base paper is exposed

    • Paper with clips or staples

    • Dirty or damaged paper

Note

  • Even if paper is adequate for the printer, poorly stored paper can cause paper misfeeds, print quality degradation, or malfunctions.
