2 Paper Handling This chapter explains paper specifications for this printer.
General Guidelines The machine is designed to print on standard copier paper, but it can also accept a variety of other types of paper within the limits specified below. Note The manufacturer assumes no liability for problems that occur when paper not satisfying these requirements is used. Selection of the right paper is important. Using the wrong paper can result in paper jams, curling, poor print quality, and paper waste, and in extreme cases can damage the machine.
Minimum and Maximum Paper Sizes The minimum and maximum paper sizes are as follows. For the paper smaller than JIS B6, postcards, and envelopes, the MP tray must be used.
Selecting the Right Paper This section describes the guidelines for selecting paper. Condition Avoid using paper that is bent at the edges, curled, dirty, torn, embossed, or contaminated with lint, clay, or paper shreds. Use of paper in these conditions can lead to illegible printing and paper jams, and can shorten the life of the machine. In particular, avoid using paper with a surface coating or other surface treatment. Paper should have as smooth and even a surface as possible.
Basis Weight Basis weight is the weight of paper expressed in grams per square meter (g/m²). Paper that is too heavy or too light may cause feed errors or paper jams as well as premature wear of the product. Uneven weight of paper, namely uneven paper thickness may cause multiple-sheet feeding or print quality problems such as blurring because of poor toner fusing. The recommended basis weight is between 60 and 120g/m² (16 to 31.
The moisture content of the paper varies with the relative humidity in the room. When the relative humidity is high and the paper absorbs moisture, the paper edges expand, becoming wavy in appearance. When the relative humidity is low and the paper loses moisture, the edges shrink and tighten, and print contrast may suffer. Wavy or tight edges can cause jams and alignment anomalies. The moisture content of the paper should be 4 to 6%.
Special Paper The following types of special paper can be used: Paper type to be used Paper type to be selected Thin paper (60 to 64 g/m²) Vellum Thick paper (90 to 220 g/m²) Thick Colored paper Color Recycled paper Recycled Overhead projector transparencies Transparency Cardstock Cardstock Envelopes Envelope Label Labels Use paper that is sold specifically for use with copiers or printers (heatfusing type).
The basic rule for printing on adhesive labels is that the adhesive must never come into contact with any part of the machine. Adhesive paper sticking to the drum or rollers will damage the machine. Label paper has a structure comprising of three layers, as shown in the diagram. The top Top sheet (white sheet is printed on. The bond paper) adhesive layer consists of Adhesive pressure-sensitive adhesives. Carrier sheet The carrier sheet (also called the linear or backing sheet) holds the labels until used.
Some postcards have rough edges on the back (those are created when the paper is cut). In this case, put the postcards on a flat place and rub the edges with, for example, a ruler to smooth them. Envelopes Up to 5 envelopes can be loaded at a time. Envelopes should be fed in the face-up position, right edge first. Since the composition of an envelope is more complex than that of ordinary paper, it is not always possible to ensure consistent printing quality over the entire envelope surface.
Recycled Paper Select recycled paper that meets the same specifications as the white bond paper except for whiteness. Refer to Paper Specifications on page 2-2. Note Before purchasing recycled paper, test a sample on the machine and check that the printing quality is satisfactory.
Paper Type The printer is capable of printing under the optimum setting for the type of paper being used. Setting the paper type for the paper source from the printer’s operation panel will cause the printer to automatically select the paper source and print in the mode best suited to that type of paper. A different paper type setting can be made for each paper source including the MP tray.
2-12 Paper Handling
3 Loading Paper This chapter explains how to load paper into the cassette or MP tray.
Preparing the Paper After removing paper from the packaging, fan through the sheets to separate them prior to loading. If using paper that has been folded or is curled, straighten it prior to loading. Failure to do so may result in a paper jam. IMPORTANT Ensure paper is not stapled and clips are removed. Loading Paper into Cassette 250 sheets of 11 × 8 1/2" or A4 paper (80 g/m²) may be loaded into the Cassette. 1 Pull the cassette completely out of the printer.
3 Adjust the paper length guide to the paper size required. If you are going to use paper that is longer than A4, pull out the extension paper cassette by pushing the release lever one by one and adjust it to the desired paper size. 4 Load the paper in the cassette. Ensure the side to be printed is facing down and the paper is not folded, curled, or damaged. Note Do not load paper above the triangle mark located on the width guide.
5 Insert the paper cassette into the slot in the printer. Push it straight in as far as it will go. There is a paper gauge on the left side of the front of the paper cassette to indicate the remaining paper supply. When paper is exhausted, the pointer will go down to the level of (empty). 6 3-4 Specify the paper size and type for the cassette using control panel. For more information, refer to Advanced Operation Guide.
Loading Paper into MP (Multi-Purpose) Tray The FS-1350DN can load up to 50 sheets of 11 × 8 1/2" or A4 paper (80 g/m²) into the MP tray. 1 2 Pull the MP tray towards you until it stops. Adjust the position of the paper guides on the MP tray. Standard paper sizes are marked on the MP tray. For standard paper sizes, slide the paper guides to the corresponding mark. 3 Pull out the subtray. 4 Align the paper with the paper guides and insert as far as it will go.
Note If the paper is considerably curled in one direction, for example, if the paper is already printed on one side, try to roll the paper in the opposite direction to counteract the curl. Printed sheets will then come out flat. Correct Incorrect When loading envelope, place with the envelope flap closed and keep the printing side face-up. Insert envelope against the guide with the flap on the front or left side until they stop.
