Appendix 6-3
Choosing the Appropriate Paper
This section describes guidelines for choosing paper.
Condition
Avoid using paper with bent corners or that is curled, dirty, or torn. Do
not use paper that has a rough surface or paper fiber lint, or that is
especially delicate. Use of paper in any of these conditions will not only
deliver poor copies but may also cause jams and shorten the useful life
of the machine. Choose paper with a smooth and even surface;
however, avoid coated paper or paper with a treated surface as it may
damage the drum or fusing unit.
Ingredient
Do not use paper such as paper that has been coated or surface-treated
or paper that contains plastic or carbon. These types of paper may
produce harmful fumes from the heat of copying and may damage the
drum.
Be sure to use plain paper that contains at least 80 % pulp, i.e., not more
than 20 % of the total paper content consists of cotton or other fibers.
