Thick Paper Orientation and Recommended Status
When using thick paper of 106–220 g/m2 (28 lb. Bond–80 lb. Cover), keep in mind the paper orientation or storage environment to prevent misfeeds and loss of image quality.
Paper Storage
Temperature: 20–25°C (68–77°F)
Humidity: 30–65%.
Do not use together paper that has been stored in different environments.
Minimum Number of Sheets
20 sheets or more (paper trays of the machine/optional paper feed unit used)
After loading paper, position the side fences flush against the paper stack.
When printing on thick, smooth paper, be sure to fan the paper thoroughly before loading. If you do not fan thick paper, jams and misfeeds can occur. If paper continues to become jammed or feed in together even after they are fanned, load them one by one from the bypass tray.
Select [Thick Paper 1] or [Thick Paper 2] as the paper thickness for the settings shown below.
