Printing on Preprinted Paper
1 Load letterhead paper into the input
tray you want to use with the design
face up, top edge toward the printer.
3 When you print on the preprinted
paper, configure the paper source,
type and size in the software
application. For details, see page 5.4.
Preprinted paper is a form with some type of printing on it before it is sent through the
printer, such as a letterhead sheet having a preprinted logo or text located at the top of
the page.
Guidelines
• Letterheads must be printed with heat-resistant ink that will not melt, vaporize, or
release hazardous emissions when subjected to the printer fusing temperature of
400°F (205°C) for 0.1 second.
• Ink on letterhead must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect any
printer rollers.
• Forms and letterheads should be sealed in a moisture-proof wrapping to prevent
changes during storage.
• Before you load preprinted paper, such as forms and letterheads, verify that the ink
on the paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come off preprinted
paper.
