About Paper
Paper is physically and chemically complex. For a paper to perform 
properly in a 5760/5765, its properties must be within specified 
limits.   Some of these limits can be determined, but others cannot 
be obtained easily. Therefore, you must rely on the paper supplier to 
deliver paper, or other material, that meets the specifications 
outlined in this guide and the Xerox 5760/5765 Digital Color Copier/
Printer Operator Manual.
It is important that you understand the relationship between the 
properties of materials used in the copier/printer and reliable 
performance of the copier/printer. Using materials that do not meet 
the specified requirements may result in increased paper jams, poor 
print quality, excessive service calls, and even damage to the 
copier/printer.
The quality and condition of the paper being used for copying will 
affect the performance of the 5760/5765 and the quality of the 
output copy.
Excellent performance will be obtained by using Xerox Image Series 
LX 24 lb paper (8.5 x 11 inch= 3R3874 or 11 x 17 inch= 3R3877). 
This paper has high brightness, a smooth surface, and a very 
uniform paper fiber distribution (formation). 
Many papers designed for use in laser printers have some or all of 
these recommended properties.
Poor formation, or a rough surface, significantly degrades copy 
quality. High brightness of the paper influences the appearance of 
the colors on the copy.
