- Before you buy a lot of paper, test a small quantity to make sure that the paper is suitable.
- Use paper made for plain paper copying.
- Use paper that is 20 to 24 lb (75 to 90 g/m2).
- Use long grain paper with a neutral Ph value, and a moisture content of approx 5%.
- Use labels which are designed for use in laser printers.
- Avoid touching the printed surface of the paper immediately after printing.
- DO NOT load envelopes, labels or thick paper (more than 28 lb or 105 g/m2) into the paper tray or optional lower tray. It may cause paper jams.
