DS PECIFICATIONS D.9Paper SpecificationsPaper Output CapacityPaper Storage EnvironmentPaper storage environmental conditions directly affect the feed operation.Ideally, the machine and paper storage environment should be at or near roomtemperature, and not too dry or humid. Remember that paper is hygroscopic; itabsorbs and loses moisture rapidly.Heat works with humidity to damage paper. Heat causes the moisture in paper toevaporate, while cold causes it to condense on the sheets. Heating systems and airconditioners remove most of the humidity from a room. As paper is opened and used,it loses moisture, causing streaks and smudging. Humid weather or water coolers cancause the humidity to increase in a room. As paper is opened and used it absorbs anyexcess moisture, causing light print and dropouts. Also, as paper loses and gainsmoisture it can become distorted. This can cause paper jams.Care should be taken not to purchase more paper than can be used in a short time(about 3 months). Paper stored for long periods may experience heat and moistureCategory SpecificationsAcid content 5.5 pH or lowerCaliper 0.094 ~ 0.18 mm (3.0 ~ 7.0 mils)Curl in ream Flat within 5 mm (0.02 in.)Cut edge conditions Cut with sharp blades with no visible fray.Fusing compatibilityMust not scorch, melt, offset or release hazardousemissions when heated to 200 °C (392 °F) for 0.1second.Grain Long grainMoisture content 4 % ~ 6 % by weightSmoothness 100 ~ 400 SheffieldOutput Location CapacityFace-down output tray 150 sheets of 75 g/m 2 bond (20 lb) paperFace-up output slot 1 sheet of 75 g/m2 bond (20 lb) paper
