paper 2 The machine is designed to work well with most types of xerographic and bond paper. However, some paper variables may have an effect on print quality or handling reliability. Always test samples of paper before purchasing to ensure desirable performance. Store paper in its original packaging and keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat. Some important guidelines when selecting paper are: DO NOT use inkjet paper because it may cause a paper jam or damage your machine. Preprinted paper must use ink that can withstand the 200 C temperature of the machine’s fusing process. If you use bond paper, paper that has a rough surface, or paper that is wrinkled or creased, the paper may exhibit degraded performance. Types of paper to avoid 2 IMPORTANT Some types of paper may not perform well or may cause damage to your machine. DO NOT use paper: • that is highly textured • that is extremely smooth or shiny • that is curled or warped 1 A curl of 2 mm or greater may cause jams to occur. • that is coated or has a chemical finish • that is damaged, creased or folded • that exceeds the recommended weight specification in this guide • with tabs and staples • with letterheads using low temperature dyes or thermography • that is multipart or carbonless • that is designed for inkjet printing The types of paper listed above may damage your machine. This damage is not covered under any Brother warranty or service agreement. 1 1

most envelopes. However, some envelopes may have feed and print quality problems because of the way they have been made. Envelopes should have edges with straight, well-creased folds. Envelopes should lie flat and not be of baggy or flimsy construction. Use only quality envelopes from a supplier who understands that you will be using the envelopes in a laser machine. Envelopes can only be fed through the multi- purpose tray. We recommend that you print a test envelope to make sure the print results are what you want. Types of envelopes to avoid 2 IMPORTANT DO NOT use envelopes: • that are damaged, curled, wrinkled or an unusual shape • that are extremely shiny or textured • with clasps, staples, snaps or tie strings • with self-adhesive closures • that are of a baggy construction • that are not sharply creased • that are embossed (raised writing) • that were previously printed by a laser or LED machine • that are pre-printed on the inside • that cannot be arranged neatly when stacked • that are made of paper that weighs more than the paper weight specifications for the machine • with edges that are not straight or consistently square • with windows, holes, cut-outs or perforations • with glue on the surface as shown in the figure below • with double flaps as shown in the figure below • with sealing flaps that are not folded down when purchased • with each side folded as shown in the figure below If you use any of the types of envelopes listed above, they may damage your machine. This damage may not be covered under any Brother warranty or service agreement. Occasionally you may experience paper feed problems caused by the thickness, size and flap shape of the envelopes you are using.

designed for use with a laser machine. Labels should have an adhesive that is acrylic-based since this material is more stable at the high temperatures in the fuser unit. Adhesives should not come in contact with any part of the machine, because the label stock may stick to the drum unit or rollers and cause jams and print quality problems. No adhesive should be exposed between the labels. Labels should be arranged so that they cover the entire length and width of the sheet. Using labels with spaces may result in labels peeling off and causing serious jams or print problems. All labels used in this machine must be able to withstand a temperature of 200 C for a period of 0.1 seconds. Labels can only be fed through the multi- purpose tray. Types of labels to avoid 2 Do not use labels that are damaged, curled, wrinkled or an unusual shape. IMPORTANT • DO NOT feed part used label sheets. The exposed carrier sheet will damage your machine. • DO NOT reuse or insert labels that have previously been used or are missing a few labels on the sheet. • Label sheets should not exceed the paper weight specifications described in this User’s Guide. Labels exceeding this specification may not feed or print correctly and may cause damage to your machine.
