o prevent paper jams and other errors and ensure beautiful printing, you must take precautions when handling and
storing paper.
To maintain the quality of printed paper, pay attention when storing and gluing paper.
◼ Handling and Storing Paper
Before printing, check whether the paper to use is suitable. Do not use the following types of paper, as they can
cause paper jams or printing errors:
● Wrinkled, creased, curled, torn, or damp paper
*1
● Thin straw paper, very thin paper, coarse paper, glossy paper
● Paper with glue or other adhesive sticking out or label paper whose back side can be easily peeled off
● Paper printed by a thermal transfer printer, back side of paper printed by a thermal transfer printer
*1
Printing on damp paper may cause steam to be emitted fr
om the output area or water droplets to adhere to the
output part, but this does not indicate a malfunction. This is because the water contained in the paper evaporates due to
the heat generated when the toner xes to the paper. This is more likely to occur when the room temperature is low.
Acclimating the Paper to the Usage Environment
Before using the paper in the machine, be sure to fully acclimate the paper to the environment where the
machine is located. Immediately using paper stored in a location with a different temperature or humidity
can cause paper jams or printing errors.
Storing Paper Before Use
● It is recommended that you use paper as soon as possible after opening the package. Any remaining
paper should be wrapped in the original package and stored on a at surface.
● To protect the paper from moisture or dryness, keep the paper wrapped in its package until use.
● Do not store the paper so that it curls or folds.
● Do not store the paper vertically, and do not stack too much paper.
● Do not store the paper in direct sunlight, or in a place with high humidity, dryness, or a drastically different
temperature or humidity compared to the usage environment.
◼ Storing and Gluing Printed Paper
Storing Paper
● Store the paper on a at surface.
● Do not store the paper together with items made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) such as a clear folder. The
toner may melt, causing the paper to stick to the PVC material.
● Do not store the paper folded or creased. Toner may peel off.
● Do not store the paper in a place with high temperature.
● When storing the paper for a long period of time (two years or longer), store in a binder or similar item.
● Storing the paper for a long period of time can cause a discoloration of the paper, resulting in a
discoloration of printed images.
Precautions When Gluing Printed Paper
● Always use insoluble adhesives.
● Before applying adhesive, perform a test using an unneeded printout.
● Allow glued paper to fully dry before stacking.
