General Guidelines

The machine is designed to print on standard copier paper, but it can also accept a variety of other types of paper within

the limits specified below.

Selection of the right paper is important. Using the wrong paper can result in paper jams, curling, poor print quality, and

paper waste, and in extreme cases can damage the machine. The guidelines given below will increase the productivity of

your office by ensuring efficient, trouble-free printing and reducing wear and tear on the machine.

Paper Availability

Most types of paper are compatible with a variety of machines. Paper intended for xerographic copiers can also be used

with the machine.

There are three general grades of paper: economy, standard, and premium. The most significant difference between

grades is the ease with which they pass through the machine. This is affected by the smoothness, size, and moisture

content of the paper, and the way in which the paper is cut. The higher the grade of paper you use, the less risk there will

be of paper jams and other problems, and the higher the level of quality your printed output will reflect.

Differences between paper from different suppliers can also affect the machine's performance. A high-quality machine

cannot produce high-quality results when the wrong paper is used. Low-priced paper is not economical in the long run if it

causes printing problems.

Paper in each grade is available in a range of basis weights (defined later). The traditional standard weights are 60 to

120 g/m² (16 to 31.9b).
