B.2.1.1 Special Considerations When Printing on Paper
Because of the way laser printers print and bond toner to the paper, you must
observe some special requirements with certain types of papers:
• Do not use preprinted papers that do not meet the specifications for heat
tolerance. The ink from some preprinted papers, such as those with a
company letterhead, can cause smearing and in some extreme cases could
damage the printer.
• Do not use colored papers in which the color is applied as a coating to the
surface.
• Do not use thermal papers.
• Do not use carbon papers.
• Do not use paper printed with thermographics letterheads.
