Paper and specialty media guide 43 Paper and specialty media guide Additional information for printing on specialty media may be found in the Card Stock and Label Guide available at http://support.lexmark.com. Paper guidelines Selecting the correct paper or specialty media reduces printing problems. For the best print quality, try a sample of the paper or specialty media before buying large quantities. Paper characteristics The following paper characteristics affect print quality and reliability.
Paper and specialty media guide 44 Grain direction Grain refers to the alignment of the paper fibers in a sheet of paper. Grain is either grain long, running the length of the paper, or grain short, running the width of the paper. For 60–90‑g/m2 (16–24‑lb) bond paper, grain long paper is recommended. Fiber content Most high‑quality xerographic paper is made from 100% chemically treated pulped wood.
Paper and specialty media guide 45 • Avoid papers with rough or heavily textured surfaces. Use papers printed with heat‑resistant inks designed for use in xerographic copiers. The ink must be able to withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F) without melting or releasing hazardous emissions. Use inks that are not affected by the resin in toner. Inks that are oxidation‑set or oil‑based generally meet these requirements; latex inks might not. When in doubt, contact the paper supplier.
Paper and specialty media guide 46 Lexmark does not endorse specific suppliers, although a converter’s product list for special applications is maintained. However, the following paper choice guidelines will help alleviate the environmental impact of printing: 1 Minimize paper consumption. 2 Be selective about the origin of wood fiber. Buy from suppliers who carry certifications such as the Forestry Stewardship Council (FSC) or the Program for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC).
Paper and specialty media guide 47 • Do not use preprinted card stock manufactured with chemicals that may contaminate the printer. Preprinting introduces semi‑liquid and volatile components into the printer. • Use grain short card stock when possible. Tips on using envelopes Print samples on the envelopes being considered for use before buying large quantities. • Use envelopes designed specifically for laser printers.
Paper and specialty media guide 48 • Do not use labels with exposed adhesive. • Do not print within 1 mm (0.04 inch) of the edge of the label, of the perforations, or between die‑cuts of the label. • Make sure the adhesive backing does not reach to the edge of the sheet. Zone coating of the adhesive should be at least 1 mm (0.04 inch) away from edges. Adhesive material contaminates the printer and could void the warranty. • If zone coating of the adhesive is not possible, then remove a 2‑mm (0.
