Unsupported Types of Paper
Avoid using the following paper as they are not supported by this machine.
● Paper meant for an ink-jet printer
● Bent, folded, or creased paper
● Curled or twisted paper
● Torn paper
● Wrinkled paper
● Damp paper
● Paper that is dry enough to emit static electricity
● Paper that has already been printed onto, except a preprinted letterhead.
Malfunctions are especially likely when using paper printed on by other than a laser printer (e.g.
monochrome and color copiers, ink-jet printers, etc.)
● Special paper, such as thermal paper, aluminum foil, carbon paper and conductive paper
● Paper that is heavier or lighter than the specified limitations
● Paper with windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossing
● Adhesive label paper on which the adhesive underlayer or base paper is exposed
● Paper with clips or staples
● Do not use ink-jet printer paper because it may stick to the fusing unit and cause a paper jam.
● Do not load OHP transparencies. Load translucent media only.
● Do not use paper that has already been printed onto by other printers.
● Even supported types of paper may cause paper jams or malfunctions if the paper is not in good condition.
