Print Media Guidelines
Print media is paper, labels, envelopes, and coated paper among others. Your printer provides high-quality printing on a variety of print media. Selecting the
appropriate print media for your printer helps avoid printing troubles. This section describes selecting print media, caring for print media, and loading the print
media in the tray 1.
Paper
2
2
For the best print quality in color, use 75 g/m (20 lb) xerographic, grain long paper. For the best print quality in black and white, use 90 g/m (24 lb)
xerographic, grain long paper. Before buying large quantities of any print media, Dell recommends trying a sample first.
When loading paper, identify the recommended print side on the paper package, and load the paper accordingly. See "Loading Print Media in Tray 1" and
Paper Characteristics
The following paper characteristics affect print quality and reliability. Dell recommends that you follow these guidelines when evaluating new paper stock.
Weight
2
The tray automatically feeds paper weights from 60 to 216 g/m (16 to 60 lb bond) grain long. The single sheet feeder automatically feeds paper weights from
2
2
60 to 216 g/m (16 to 80 lb bond) grain long. Paper lighter than 60 g/m (16 lb) may not feed properly, and could cause paper jams. For best performance,
2
use 75 g/m (20 lb bond) grain long paper.
Curl
Curl is the tendency of print media to curve at its edges. Excessive curl can cause paper feeding problems. Curl usually occurs after the paper passes through
the printer, where it is exposed to high temperatures. Storing paper unwrapped, even in the paper tray, can contribute to paper curling prior to printing and
cause feeding problems regardless of humidity. When printing on curled paper, straighten the paper and then insert it into the single sheet feeder.
Smoothness
The degree of paper smoothness directly affects print quality. If the paper is too rough, the toner does not fuse to the paper properly, resulting in poor print
quality. If the paper is too smooth, it can cause paper feeding problems. Smoothness between 150 and 250 Sheffield points produces the best print quality.
Moisture Content
The amount of moisture in the paper affects both print quality and the ability of the printer to feed the paper properly. Leave the paper in its original
packaging until you are ready to use it. This limits the exposure of the paper to moisture changes that can degrade its performance.
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
2
2
width of the paper. For 60 to 135 g/m (16 to 36 lb bond) paper, grain long fibers are recommended. For papers heavier than 135 g/m (36 lb bond), grain
short is preferred.
Fiber Content
Most high-quality xerographic paper is made from 100% chemically pulped wood. Paper containing fibers such as cotton possess characteristics that can result
in degraded paper handling.
Recommended Paper
2
To ensure the best print quality and feed reliability, use 75 g/m (20 lb) xerographic paper. Business papers designed for general business use also provide
acceptable print quality. Only use paper able to withstand high temperatures without discoloring, bleeding, or releasing hazardous emissions. The laser
printing process heats paper to high temperatures. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to determine whether the paper you have chosen is acceptable for
laser printers.
Always print several samples before buying large quantities of any type of print media. When choosing any print media, you should consider the weight, fiber
content, and color.
Unacceptable Paper
The following paper types are not recommended for use with the printer:
l
Chemically treated papers used to make copies without carbon paper, also known as carbonless papers, carbonless copy paper (CCP), or no carbon
required (NCR) paper
l
l
l
Preprinted papers with chemicals that may contaminate the printer
Preprinted papers that can be affected by the temperature in the printer fuser
Preprinted papers that require a registration (the precise print location on the page) greater than ±0.09 inches, such as optical character recognition
(OCR) forms
In some cases, you can adjust registration with your software program to successfully print on these forms.
l
l
l
l
l
Coated papers (erasable bond), synthetic papers, thermal papers
Rough-edged, rough or heavily textured surface papers, or curled papers
Recycled papers containing more than 25% post-consumer waste that do not meet DIN 19 309
Multiple-part forms or documents
Print quality may deteriorate (blank spaces or blotches may appear in the text) when printing on talc or acid paper.
Selecting Paper
Proper paper selection helps prevent jams and ensures trouble-free printing.
To help avoid jams or poor print quality:
l
l
l
l
l
l
l
Always use new, undamaged paper.
Before loading the paper, identify the recommended print side of the paper. This information is usually indicated on the paper package.
Do not use paper that you have cut or trimmed yourself.
Do not mix print media sizes, weights, or types in the same source. This may result in a paper jam.
Do not remove the tray while a job is printing.
Ensure that the paper is properly loaded in the tray.
Flex paper back and forth, and then fan them. Straighten the edges of the stack on a level surface.
Selecting Preprinted Forms and Letterhead
When selecting preprinted forms and letterhead paper for the printer:
l
l
l
l
l
Use grain long papers for best results.
Use only forms and letterhead printed using an offset lithographic or engraved printing process.
Select papers that absorb ink, but do not bleed.
Avoid papers with rough or heavily textured surfaces.
Use papers printed with heat-resistant inks designed for use in xerographic copiers. The ink must withstand temperatures of 225°C (437°F) without
melting or releasing hazardous emissions.
l
Use inks that are not affected by the resin in toner or the silicone in the fuser. Inks that are oxidation-set or oil-based should meet these requirements;
latex inks might not. If you are in doubt, contact your paper supplier.
Printing on Letterhead
Check with the manufacturer or vendor to determine whether the pre-printed letterhead you have selected is acceptable for laser printers.
Page orientation is important when printing on letterhead. Use the following table for help when loading letterhead in the print media sources.
Print media source

Letterhead enters the printer first
Selecting Pre-Punched Paper
Pre-punched paper brands can differ in the number and placement of holes and in manufacturing techniques. However, it may not be possible to print on the
paper to depending on the placement of holes on the paper.
To select and use pre-punched paper:
l
Test paper from several manufacturers before ordering and using large quantities of pre-punched paper.
l
l
l
Paper should be punched at the paper manufacturer and not drilled into paper already packaged in a ream. Drilled paper can cause jams when multiple
sheets feed through the printer. This may result in a paper jam.
Pre-punched paper can include more paper dust than standard paper. Your printer may require more frequent cleaning and feed reliability may not be as
good as standard paper.
Weight guidelines for pre-punched paper are the same as non-punched paper.
Envelopes
Depending on the choice of envelopes, it is possible to expect variable levels of light wrinkling. Before buying large quantities of any print media, Dell
recommends trying a sample first. See "Loading Print Media in Tray 1" or "Loading the Single Sheet Feeder" for instructions on loading an envelope.
When printing on envelopes:

Use only high-quality envelopes that are designed for use in laser printers.
Set the print media source to the single sheet feeder or Tray 1. Set the paper type to Envelope, and select the correct size of envelope from the printer
driver.
2
2
l
For best performance, use envelopes made from 75 g/m (20 lb bond) paper. You can use up to 105 g/m (28 lb bond) weight for the envelope feeder
2
as long as the cotton content is 25% or less. Envelopes with 100% cotton content must not exceed 90 g/m (24 lb bond) weight.
l
l
Use only new, undamaged envelopes.
Use envelopes that can withstand temperatures of 205°C (401°F) without sealing, excessive curling, wrinkling, or releasing hazardous emissions. If you
have any doubts about the envelopes you are considering, check with the envelope supplier.
l
l
Adjust the guide to fit the width of the envelopes.
To load envelope in the single sheet feeder, insert the envelopes with the flaps closed and the short-edge of the envelopes facing into the printer. The
print side must be facing down.
l
l
l
l
See "Loading Print Media in Tray 1" or "Loading the Single Sheet Feeder" for instructions on loading an envelope.
Use one envelope size during a print job.
Ensure the humidity is low because high humidity (more than 60%) and the high printing temperatures may seal the envelopes.
For best performance, do not use envelopes that:
¡
¡
¡
¡
¡
¡
¡
¡
¡
Have excessive curl or twist
Are stuck together or damaged in any way
Contain windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, embossing
Use metal clasps, string ties, or metal folding bars
Have an interlocking design
Have postage stamps attached
Have any exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed or closed position
Have nicked edges or bent corners
Have rough, cockle, or laid finishes
Labels
Your printer can print on many labels designed for use with laser printers. Dell recommends feeding Labels from Tray 1. Label adhesives, face sheet (printable
stock), and topcoats must be able to withstand temperatures of 205°C (401°F) and pressure of 25 pounds per square inch (psi). Before buying large
quantities of any print media, Dell recommends trying a sample first.
When printing on labels:
l
l
l
l
l
Set the paper type to Label from the printer driver.
Do not load labels together with paper in the same tray. This may result in a jam.
Do not use label sheets with a slick backing material.
Do not print within 1 mm (0.04 inches) of the die cut.
Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a jam. Partial sheets also contaminate your printer and your
cartridge with adhesive, and could void your printer and cartridge warranties.
l
l
l
Use labels that can withstand temperatures of 205°C (401°F) without sealing, excessive curling, wrinkling, or releasing hazardous emissions.
Do not print within 1 mm (0.04 inches) of the edge of the label, of the perforations, or between die-cuts of the label.
Do not use label sheets that have adhesive to the edge of the sheet. Dell recommends zone coating of the adhesive at least 1 mm (0.04 inches) away
from edges. Adhesive material contaminates your printer and could void your warranty.
l
If zone coating of the adhesive is not possible, a 3 mm (0.125 inches) strip should be removed on the leading and driver edge, and a non-oozing
adhesive should be used.
l
l
l
Remove a 3 mm (0.125 inches) strip from the leading edge to prevent labels from peeling inside the printer.
Portrait orientation is preferred, especially when printing bar codes.
Do not use labels that have exposed adhesive.
Storing Print Media
For proper print media storage, the following guidelines help avoid media feeding problems and uneven print quality.
l
l
l
l
For best results, store print media in an environment where the temperature is approximately 21°C (70°F) and the relative humidity is 40%.
Store cartons of print media on a pallet or shelf, rather than directly on the floor.
If you store individual packages of print media out of the original carton, ensure that they rest on a flat surface so that the edges do not buckle or curl.
Do not place anything on top of the print media packages.

peer method. However, if you use one of the Microsoft methods, you will not have all the features, such as the status monitor and other printer utilities, that
are installed with the Drivers and Utilities CD.
To share a locally-attached printer on the network, you need to share the printer, and then install the shared printer on network clients:

2. Right-click this printer icon and select Properties.
3. From the Sharing tab, check the Share this printer (Share as for Windows 2000) check box, and then type a name in the Share name (Share as for
Windows 2000) text box.
4. Click Additional Drivers and select the operating systems of all network clients printing to this printer.
5. Click OK.
If you are missing files, you will be prompted to insert the server operating system CD.

l
l
Ensure that the printer object in the Printers and Faxes (Printers for Windows 2000) folder is shared. For example, in Windows 2000, a hand is
shown underneath the printer icon.
Browse My Network Places. Find the host name of the server and look for the shared name you assigned to the printer.
Now that the printer is shared, you can install the printer on network clients using the point and print method or the peer-to-peer method.
Point and Print
This method is usually the best use of system resources. The server handles driver modifications and print job processing. This lets network clients return to
their programs much faster.
If you use the point and print method, a subset of driver information is copied from the server to the client computer. This is just enough information to send a
print job to the printer.
