The best type of paper to choose is standard 18 to 20 lb. (80-90g/
m²) bond paper designed for use in plain paper copiers and laser
type printers. Pre-printed stationery, such as letterhead paper
can also be used as long as the pre-printed parts can withstand
a combination of heat and pressure. Experience will determine
the suitability or otherwise of particular pre-printed stationery.
Avoid using paper that is damaged in any way, such as folded,
perforated, torn or stapled sheets, and avoid feeding the same
sheet twice to print on both sides. Also avoid using very glossy or
heavily embossed paper.
Store paper flat and sealed in its original wrapping until required
for use. Paper left out tends to absorb moisture from the air. This
makes it prone to curling and also less able to retain a permanent
image.
The paper tray can hold up to about 150 sheets of standard bond
paper. The manual feeder takes just one sheet at a time. Take
just enough paper from its wrapping, fan the stack to ensure all
sheets are separated from each other, then tap the stack flush
again before loading.
Load pre-printed stationery top edge first and face down into the
paper tray or face up into the manual feeder.
If plain paper seems to curl excessively during the print process,
try turning the stack over in the input tray. You may have been
printing on the wrong side.
