  • Use paper that is made for plain-paper copying.
  • Use paper that is 75 to 90 g/m2 (20 to 24 lb).
  • Use neutral paper. Do not use acidic or alkaline paper.

  • Use paper with a moisture content of approximately 5%.
  • This printer can use recycled paper that meets the DIN 19309 specifications.

 

 

Do not use inkjet paper, iron-on transfer paper or perforated paper, because it will cause a paper jam or damage your machine.

 

If you use paper that is not recommended, a paper jam or misfeed may occur in the printer.
