Paper and specialty media guide 69 Weight The printer trays and multipurpose feeder can automatically feed paper weights between 60–176 g/m2 (16–47‑lb) grain long paper. The 2100‑sheet tray can automatically feed paper weights up to 60–135 g/m2 (16–36‑lb) grain long paper. Paper lighter than 60 g/m2 (16 lb) might not be stiff enough to feed properly, and may cause jams. Note: Two‑sided printing is supported for 60–176 g/m2 (16–47‑lb) paper. Curl Curl is the tendency for paper to curl at its edges.
Paper and specialty media guide 70 • Do not mix paper sizes, types, or weights in the same tray; mixing results in jams. • Do not use coated papers unless they are specifically designed for electrophotographic printing. Selecting preprinted forms and letterhead • • • • Use grain long for 60–90‑g/m2 (16–24‑lb) paper. Use only forms and letterhead printed using an offset lithographic or engraved printing process. Avoid paper with rough or heavily textured surfaces.
