Guidelines for using paper<br />
For best results, make sure the paper is of good quality, and free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose<br />
particles, dust, wrinkles, voids, and curled or bent edges.<br />
If you are unsure what type of paper you are loading (such as bond or recycled), check the label on<br />
the package of paper.<br />

paper.<br />
NOTE Do not use letterhead paper that is printed with low-temperature inks, such as those<br />
used in some types of thermography. Do not use raised or embossed letterhead. The printer<br />
uses heat and pressure to fuse toner to the paper. Make sure that any colored paper or<br />
preprinted forms use inks that are compatible with this fusing temperature (200°C or 392°F for<br />
0.1 second).<br />
CAUTION<br />
Failure to follow these <strong>guide</strong>lines could cause jams or damage to the printer.<br />
