Metallic Paper and Synthetic Paper may have Problems such as Curling, Stacking Error, Paper Jam, and Sheets being bent at the Corners
The difference in the thermal contraction between the front and back of the paper is larger with synthetic paper and metallic paper compared to plain paper. Furthermore, they require high fusing temperatures, and are prone to curl due to the large temperature difference between the fused and pressurized sides. As a result, the following problems may occur when delivering the paper.
Paper curling
Not stacked properly
Paper jams
Folded edges

Solution:

You need to register the paper as custom paper in advance.
Load the sheets the other way up.

Print 20 or more sheets. Is the condition of the image acceptable?
Yes | Go to the next step. |
No | Contact your service representative. |
Is the toner fusibility within the permissible range?

The required level of fusibility is as follows.
The printed image does not come off.
The toner does not come off even if it is lightly rubbed by a nail.
The toner does not come off even if the image is wiped with an optical cloth.
Yes | Go to the next step. |
No | No further improvement is likely. |
Has the paper output improved?
Yes | Finished! |
