approximately 11 mm / 3/8" high)

- Paper Weight: 64 to 256 g/m2 / 18 lb Bond to 68 lb Bond
- Paper which has been rolled or curled must be straightened out prior to use, to
allow the paper to feed smoothly through the special feeder (allowable curl amount:
less than 10 mm / 3/8" for normal paper, less than 5 mm 1/5" for heavy paper).
There are some types of paper stock which may meet the above specifications, but
cannot be fed into the special feeder.
■
Do not load different size/type paper at the same time.
■
Feed coated paper one sheet at a time. Loading several sheets together may cause
paper jams.
■
Depending on the type of heavy paper you want to load, if you load multiple
sheets of heavy paper into the special feeder, a paper jam may occur. In this case,
load only one sheet of heavy paper at a time.
■
If you are making two-sided prints, the printed paper may crease depending on
the moisture absorption condition of the paper, and if you copy the two pages as
two one-sided documents.
■
When printing on special types of paper, such as heavy paper or transparencies,
be sure to correctly set the paper type, especially if you are using heavy paper. If
the type of paper is not set correctly, it could adversely affect the quality of the
image. Moreover, the fixing unit may become dirty and require a service repair,
or the paper could jam.
