Paper and specialty media guide Additional information for printing on speciality medias may be found in the C ardstock and Label Guide available on Lexmark.com/publications . Paper guidelines Paper characteristics The following paper characteristics affect print quality and reliability.
Fiber content Most high-quality xerographic paper is made from 100% chemicall y treate d pulped wood. This content provides the paper with a high degree of stability resulting in fewe r paper feeding problems and better print quality. Pape r containing fibers such as cotton possesses characteristics that can negatively affect paper handling.
Storing paper Use these paper storage guidelines to help avoid jams and uneven print quality: • For best results, store paper where th e temperature is 21°C (70°F) and the relative humidity is 40%. Most label manufacturers recommend printing in a temperature range of 18 to 24°C (6 5 to 75°F) with relative humidity between 40 and 60%.
