Handling Paper
General Guidelines
The machine is designed to print on standard copier paper (the type used
in ordinary dry copier machines), 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 printer 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 32 pounds).
