Selecting Prepunched Paper
Prepunched paper brands can differ in the number and placement of holes and in manufacturing techniques.
Use the following guidelines to select and use prepunched paper:
Test paper from several manufacturers before ordering and using large quantities of prepunched paper.
Paper should be punched at the paper manufacturer and not drilled into paper already packaged in a ream. Drilled paper can cause
jams when multiple sheets feed through the printer.
Prepunched paper could include more paper dust than standard paper. Your printer may require more frequent cleaning, and feed
reliability may not be as good as that of standard paper.
Transparencies
Try samples of any transparencies you are considering using with the printer before buying large quantities:
Use transparencies designed specifically for laser printers. Transparencies must be able to withstand temperatures up to 195° C (383°
F) without melting, discoloring, offsetting or releasing hazardous emissions.
Avoid getting fingerprints on the transparencies, which could result in poor print quality.
Before loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together.
Transparencies are supported in Multi-purpose Feeder only.
