Phaser 300X Color Printer
Weight and thickness
The following table presents guidelines you should follow when selecting
the grade, weight, and thickness of paper to use with the printer. The paper
must have enough thickness or stiffness to feed through the printer properly.
Manual feed accepts a wider range of grades and weights than the paper
trays.
Avoid papers that are extra stiff or extremely thin. Papers that are extremely
thin may not feed properly. Also, do not use papers that have a basis weight
higher than 220 g/m
2
(equivalent to 80-pound Cover) or papers that are
thicker than 0.254 mm (0.01 in.).
