DEClaser 1100 Series Printers
Specifications
This appendix gives general specifications for the media and operation of the
DEClaser 1100 series printers.
B.1 Print Media
The types of print media described in this section are paper, labels,
transparencies, and envelopes. For additional information about print
media, consult the Digital Laser Printers Guide to Paper and Other Media,
available from DECdirect.
B.1.1 Paper Handling and Storage
Even if the customer is using paper that meets all specifications, improper
handling and storage can alter paper quality and printer performance. Paper
jams, misfeeding, and image defects are directly traceable to the mishandling
and improper storage of paper.
Paper Handling
Be aware of the following considerations when handling paper:
• Load the cassette to its proper capacity rather than adding small amounts
at a time.
• When you unwrap a new package of paper, discard the top and bottom
sheets, as they tend to absorb more humidity from the surrounding
environment.
• Load the paper with the top side up in the cassette. On most paper
packages, an arrow indicates the top side of the paper.
