COPY PAPER

Notes For Copy Paper

Load paper with the copy side down in the paper tray, and with the copy side up in the bypass feed table. If copies are curled, try turning the copy paper over in the tray or table. If there is no improvement, change to copy paper with less curl. Correct curls in copy paper before loading. Fan copy paper to get air between the sheets before loading. OHP transparencies, translucent paper, and adhesive labels should be set in the bypass feed table. OHP transparencies, translucent paper, and adhesive labels should be fanned to get air between the sheets before loading. Do not touch copy paper if your fingers are wet or oily; finger prints may appear on the copy. When making two-sided copies, do not load paper in the paper tray for copying the reverse side. Use the bypass feed table. COPY PAPER AND TONER

Paper Storage
Paper should always be stored properly. Improperly stored paper might result in poor image reproduction, creased copies, and paper misfeeds. Generally, avoid curling and absorption of moisture.

Avoid storing paper in humid areas. Under high temperature and high humidity, or low temperature and low humidity conditions, store paper in a vinyl bag. Do not store paper where it will be exposed to heat. Store on a flat surface. Use older stock first. Do not lay heavy objects on paper. Keep open reams of paper in the package, and store as you would unopened paper.
