In addition to the Min/Max size requirements, it is very important to use paper having a thickness between .003" to
.0047" (.076 mm. to .119 mm.). Using paper that is thicker than this may cause printing inconsistencies, and /or
paper jams. Refer to ―Validation Form Requirements‖ on page 16 for a complete listing of specifications regarding
