Card Stock
Many types of card stock may printed from Tray 1, including Rolodex
cards, index cards (3 x 5 in.), and postcards. Some card stock performs
better than others because its construction is better suited to feeding
through a laser printer.
Card Stock Construction
Weight: The weight of the card stock should not exceed 43 lb
(163 g/m
2
) or jamming may result.
36–43 lb paper must be smoother than lighter stock 100-180
(Sheffield).
16–36 lb paper can have a broader range of smoothness 100-250
(Sheffield).
Construction: Card stock should lie flat with less than 0.2 inches
(5 mm) curl.
Manufacture: Make sure card stock is not wrinkled, nicked, or
otherwise damaged.
Sizes: Use only card stock within the following sizes in Tray 1:
Minimum: 3 x 5 inches (76 x 127 mm)
Maximum: 5.8 x 7.9 inches (148 x 200 mm)
Note Before loading card stock in Tray 1, make sure it is regular in shape and
undamaged. Also, make sure the cards are not stuck together.
Card Stock Guidelines
Always insert card stock lengthwise (vertically) into Tray 1. If you want
to print in landscape mode, make this selection through your software.
Inserting paper horizontally may cause a paper jam.
Use the rear output tray to reduce excessive curl.
Do not print on card stock smaller than 3 inches wide (76.2 mm) or
5 inches tall (127 mm).
Set margins at least 0.14 inch (6.4 mm) away from the edges of the
media.
