Handling and using print
media 2
 Store paper in its original packaging, and
keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and
away from moisture, direct sunlight and
heat.
 Avoid touching the shiny (coated) side of
photo paper. Load photo paper with the
shiny side facing down.
 Avoid touching either side of
transparencies because they absorb
water and perspiration easily, and this
may cause decreased output quality.
Transparencies designed for laser
printers/copiers may stain your next
document. Use only transparencies
recommended for inkjet printing.
 You can only print on both sides of the
paper with PC printing. (See Printing for
Windows
®
in the Software User's Guide
on the CD-ROM).

• Damaged, curled, wrinkled, or

Paper capacity of the paper tray 2
Up to 50 sheets of 80 g/m
