5.5.1 Paper Handling
Observe the following requirements when handling paper:
•
Load paper cassettes to their proper capacity rather than adding small
amounts at a time. Loading small amounts of paper can cause jams
because of air pockets created between small stacks of paper.
•
When you unwrap a new package of paper, discard the top and bottom
sheets, as they tend to absorb the most humidity from the surrounding
environment.
•
Sudden temperature or humidity changes can cause paper curl, leading
to misfeeds and paper jams.
If you bring paper from a storage
location that differs greatly in temperature or humidity, leave the
paper (unopened) for a day to allow it to adjust to the printer room
environment.
•
Check to see that the paper is loaded with the correct side up. Some
packages of paper have an arrow on the label that points in the direction
of the top side of the paper. Load paper with this top side up.
If there is no arrow on the label, check the paper for curl. If an excessive
amount of curl is present, fan the paper in the opposite direction of the
curl to remove as much of the curl as possible.
•
Follow the instructions in Chapter 2 to properly load paper.
5.5.2 Paper Storage
Observe the following requirements when storing paper:
•
Always store unused paper in its original wrapping. The wrapping
protects the paper against humidity.
•
Do not store paper directly on the floor, as floors are generally humid.
•
Lay paper on a flat surface to prevent in-ream paper curl.
