Paper handling and storage● It is recommended that you use paper as soon as possible after unwrapping. Paper remaining unusedshould be covered with the original wrapping paper and stored on a flat surface.● Keep the paper wrapped in its original package to protect the paper from moisture or dryness.● Do not store the paper in such a way that may cause it to curl or fold.● Do not store the paper vertically or do not stack too much paper.● Do not store the paper in direct sunlight, or in a place subject to high humidity, dryness, or drastic changesin temperature or humidity.When printing on paper that has absorbed moisture● Steam may emit from the paper output area, or water droplets may form around the paper output area.There is nothing unusual about any of these occurrences, which occur when the heat generated from fixingtoner on the paper causes moisture in the paper to evaporate (most likely to occur at low roomtemperatures).Storing the Paper Printed with the MachineWhen handling/storing the paper printed with the machine, take the following precautions.◼ How to Store the Printed Paper● Store on a flat surface.● Do not store together with articles made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) such as clear folders. Toner may melt, resultingin the paper's sticking to PVC articles.● Take care that the paper does not get folded or creased. Toner may peel off.● To store over a long period of time (two years or longer), store in binders or equivalent.● When the paper is stored over a long period of time, it may become discolored and thus the print may seem to haveundergone a change of color.● Do not store in a place where the temperature is high.◼ Precautions When Applying Adhesive● Always use insoluble adhesive.● Before applying adhesive, perform a test using a printout no longer required.● When putting adhesive-applied paper sheets one over another, make sure that the adhesive is completely dried out.LINKSRegistering a Custom Paper Size(P. 148)Basic Operations133
