<Loading originals and print media>

When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other print materials, 
keep these guidelines in mind:
• Always use print media that conform with the specifications listed on 

page 5.3.

• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause 

paper jams and poor print quality.

• For the best print quality, use only high quality copier grade paper 

specifically recommended for use in laser printers. 

• Avoid using the following media types:

- Paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or a texture that is too 

smooth or too rough

- Erasable bond paper
- Multi-paged paper
- Synthetic paper and thermally reactive paper
- Carbonless paper and Tracing paper. 

Use of these types of paper could result in paper jams, chemical smells, 
and damage to your machine.
• Store print media in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use it. 

Place cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor. Do not place 
heavy objects on top of the paper, whether it is packaged or 
unpackaged. Keep it away from moisture or other conditions that can 
cause it to wrinkle or curl.

• Store unused print media at temperatures between 15

o 

C and 30

o 

C 

(59

o 

F to 86

o 

F). The relative humidity should be between 10% and 

70%.

• Store unused print media in a moisture-proof wrap, such as a plastic 

container or bag, to prevent dust and moisture from contaminating 
your paper.

• Load special media types one sheet at a time through the manual 

feeder to avoid paper jams.

• To prevent print media, such as transparencies and label sheets, from 

sticking together, remove them as they print out.

Envelopes

• Successful printing on envelopes depends upon 

the quality of the envelopes. When selecting 
envelopes, consider the following factors:
- Weight: The weight of the envelope paper 

should not exceed 90 g/m

2

 (24 lb) or jamming 

may occur.

- Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes 

should lie flat with less than 6 mm 
(0.25 inches) curl, and should not contain air.

- Condition: Envelopes should not be wrinkled, 

nicked, or otherwise damaged.

- Temperature: You should use envelopes that 

are compatible with the heat and pressure of 
the machine during operation.

• Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp 

and well creased folds.

• Do not use stamped envelopes.
• Do not use envelopes with clasps, snaps, 

windows, coated lining, self-adhesive seals, or 
other synthetic materials.

• Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes.
• Be sure the seam at both ends of the envelope 

extends all the way to the corner of the 
envelope.

• Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with 

more than one flap that folds over to seal must 
use adhesives compatible with the machine’s 
fusing temperature of 180° C (356° F) for 
0.1 second. The extra flaps and strips might 
cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams, and may 
even damage the fuser.

• For the best print quality, position margins no 

closer than 15 mm (0.6 inches) from the edges 
of the envelope.

• Avoid printing over the area where the 

envelope’s seams meet.
