Paper Handling
For best results, store your paper supply in its original wrapper.
Your printout can be marred by moisture absorbed in the paper.
Do not store paper in a humid or damp environment.
Below are some recommendations for selecting paper and other
print media for the printer.
Labels
Use only labels designed for laser printers or plain-paper copiers.
Use the MP Tray to print on these materials.
To prevent the adhesive from coming into contact with printer
parts, always use labels that completely cover the backing sheet
so that no gaps occur between the individual labels.
You should test the label sheet for leaking adhesive by pressing a
sheet of paper on top of a sheet of labels. If the paper sticks to the
label sheet when you lift it off, do not use the labels.
Envelopes
Load envelopes in the MP Tray with the flap edge first and the
print surface facing up. The printing quality on envelopes may be
irregular because different parts of an envelope have different
thicknesses. If the printing is too light, adjust the print density by
density adjust volume.
Note:
Because thickness and surface characteristics are especially important
for envelopes, test a sample for print quality and proper feeding before
you buy a large number of envelopes.
Colored paper
You can use colored paper as long as it meets the weight limits
shown in the paper specifications. Do not, however, use coated
paper (paper to which a clear or colored coating has been added).
