About paper

Recommended paper

To get the best print quality, we suggest using 
the following paper. 

■

Use paper that is made for plain-paper 
copying.

■

Use paper that is 20 to 24 lb (75 to 
90 g/m

2

).

■

Use neutral paper. Do not use acidic or 
alkaline paper.

■

Use long-grain paper.

■

Use paper with a moisture content of 
approximately 5%.

Choosing acceptable paper

We recommend that you test paper 
(especially special sizes and types of paper) 
on the MFC before purchasing large 
quantities.

For optimum printing, use a recommended 
type of paper, especially for plain paper and 
transparencies. For more information on 
paper specifications, call your nearest 
authorized sales representative or the place 
where you purchased your MFC.

■

Use labels or transparencies that are 
designed for use in laser printers.

■

If you are using special paper and the 
MFC has problems feeding it from the 
paper tray, try again using the manual 
feed slot.

■

You can use recycled paper in this MFC.
