    Solution

    To ensure optimum performance, use only paper that falls within the specifications in the following lists. Using inappropriate paper may result in deterioration in print quality or paper jams.
    IMPORTANT
    When continuously printing the paper of 279.4 mm wide (Letter size) or less, the safety function that prevents damages caused by heat may slow the print speed down in stages. (The print speed may drop to approx. 10 pages/min. in printing A5, B5, and B4 size plain paper.)
