Brother HL-2240 Manuale Utente

Printing Methods 

The machine is designed to work well with most types of xerographic and bond paper. However, some paper 
variables may have an effect on print quality or handling reliability. Always test samples of paper before 
purchasing to ensure desirable performance. Store paper in its original packaging and keep it sealed. Keep 
the paper flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat.
Some important guidelines when selecting paper are:



DO NOT use inkjet paper because it may cause a paper jam or damage your machine.



Preprinted paper must use ink that can withstand the temperature of the machine’s fusing process 200 
degrees centigrade (392 degrees Fahrenheit).



If you use bond paper, paper having a rough surface or paper that is wrinkled or creased, the paper may 
exhibit degraded performance.

Some types of paper may not perform well or may cause damage to your machine.
DO NOT use paper:

• that is highly textured
• that is extremely smooth or shiny
• that is curled or warped

 

• that is coated or has a chemical finish
• that is damaged, creased or folded
• that exceeds the recommended weight specification in this guide
• with tabs and staples
• with letterheads using low temperature dyes or thermography
• that is multipart or carbonless
• that is designed for inkjet printing

If you use any of the types of paper listed above, they may damage your machine. This damage is not 
covered under any Brother warranty or service agreement.
