Handling paper
Even the best papers can be rendered useless by improper handling. Paper damage, caused by
poor handling, may not be apparent until feeding or image quality problems occur.
Protect your paper investment by following these paper handling tips:
• Never drop, throw, or strike cartons with a forklift.
• Handle individual reams gently and carefully.
• Never place a carton or ream of paper on its side or edge.
• When stacking cartons or reams, place them carefully on top of one another to avoid
crushing the edges.
• Store paper on surfaces that are flat and smooth to avoid damage to the bottom sheets.
• To avoid damaging paper, never stack cartons and pallets too high. Coated papers are
especially susceptible to damage due to the smooth surfaces and increased weight. Follow
the guidelines in the table below when stacking cartons and pallets.
