5. Verify that the humidity in the room is within specifications for this printer and that paper
is being stored in unopened packages. Most reams of paper are sold in moisture-proof
wrapping to keep paper dry.
In high-humidity environments, paper at the top of the stack in the tray can absorb
moisture, and it might have a wavy or uneven appearance. If this happens, remove the top
5 to 10 sheets of paper from the stack.
In low-humidity environments, excess static electricity can cause sheets of paper to stick
together. If this happens, remove the paper from the tray, and flex the stack by holding it
at each end and bringing the ends up to form a U shape. Then, rotate the ends down to
reverse the U shape. Next, hold each side of the stack of paper, and repeat this process.
This process releases individual sheets without introducing static electricity. Straighten
the paper stack against a table before returning it to the tray.
