Paper Types and Sizes

This printer can print on a variety of common office papers in
addition to standard photocopier bond. Bond paper can range in
basic weight from 60 to 105 g/m
tray and from 60 to 199 g/m
function feeder (MFF). Smooth paper produces the best print
quality, but textured papers usually provide satisfactory results.
The following descriptions also apply to an optional paper tray.
Caution:
When you use thick paper, follow these guidelines:
• When you are using thick paper, thick envelopes, or special paper
and find improper adhering of toner to the paper, turn the thick
paper mode on using the control panel. This mode is invalid for
transparencies and labels.
• When you cannot be satisfied with the results of the thick paper
mode or want to print on thin paper, use the extension mode of
paper thickness.
• Turn the mode off or reset it to 0 when you print on regular paper.
Printing regular paper with this mode on or set to a value other
than 0 may cause a decrease in print quality or reliability of the
printer.
• With some kinds of paper, curling may happen. In this case, put
the paper face down.
• When printing thick paper of 199 g/m
quality may be poor even in thick paper mode, depending on paper
types. We recommend you to make trial printing before using thick
paper. If the print quality is not improved in thick paper mode,
change paper types.
