Stock specifications
The success of any print run depends on proper selection, care, 
and handling of the paper or other stock that is used. It is very 
important to select, store, condition, and load print media properly 
in order to keep your printer running at optimum efficiency.
The printer functions best and produces the best print quality 
when using stocks that have the correct: 
Size
Weight
Type
Color
