Paper characteristics The following paper characteristics affect print quality and reliability. Consider these characteristics when evaluating new paper stock.
User's Guide Grain direction Grain refers to the alignment of the paper fibers in a sheet of paper. Grain is either grain long, running the length of the paper, or grain short, running the width of the paper. 2 For 60–90-g/m (16–24-lb) bond paper, grain long paper is recommended. Fiber content Most high-quality xerographic paper is made from 100% chemically treated pulped wood.
User's Guide • Do not use coated papers unless they are specifically designed for electrophotographic printing. Selecting preprinted forms and letterhead Use these guidelines when selecting preprinted forms and letterhead: 2 • Use grain long for 60 to 90 g/m (16 to 24 lb) weight paper. • Use only forms and letterhead printed using an offset lithographic or engraved printing process. • Avoid papers with rough or heavily textured surfaces.
User's Guide When printing on card stock: • Make sure the Paper Type is Card Stock. • Select the appropriate Paper Texture setting. • Be aware that preprinting, perforation, and creasing may significantly affect the print quality and cause jams or other paper handling problems. • Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure that the card stock can withstand temperatures up to 240°C (464°F) without releasing hazardous emissions.
