For heavyweight paper or cardstock open the rear output cover to collect the 
printed output. This will give the paper a nearly straight path through the 
machine, avoiding paper jams and damage to the paper.

The process used to fuse (fix) the printed image to the paper involves a mixture of pressure 
and heat. Too much heat will cause lightweight paper to crease or curl and corrugations in 
transparencies. Too little heat will cause the image not to fuse fully into heavyweight paper.
