Composition
Do not use paper that has been coated or surface-treated and contains plastic or
carbon. The heat of fusing can cause such paper to give off harmful fumes, and
may damage the drum.
Bond paper should contain at least 80% pulp. Not more than 20% of the total paper
content should consist of cotton or other fibers.

Paper Size

Cassettes and the MP (multi-purpose) tray can handle the paper sizes listed in Table

Smoothness
Although it is important to use paper with a smooth and even surface, do not use
paper which has been coated. Paper that is too smooth can cause multiple feeding
and paper jams.
Basis Weight
Basis weight is the weight of a one square meter sheet of paper. Paper that is too
light or too heavy can cause misfeeding, jams, and premature wear of the printer.
Uneven paper weight can cause multiple feeds, print defects, poor toner fusing,
blurring, and other print quality problems. The appropriate paper weight range for
normal paper is 60 to 90 g/m
