Notes on paper storage and handling:

•When storing paper before and after opening, store in the recommended environment and keep it out of direct sunlight

•We recommend storing paper in the optional paper case. If you are not using the paper case, return the paper to its original packaging, and then place it in a separate packing box

•To prevent roll paper from unravelling, we recommend using the paper belt supplied to keep it in place

•After opening, remove any unused paper from the core unit, wind it up, and then store. If the paper is left installed in the printer for extended periods of time, the paper quality may decline

•Allow media to acclimatise to environmental conditions for about 24 hours before using it to ensure the media performs identically throughout the roll

•Dust within the printing system can cause issues in the long term operation of the printer. To reduce the amount of dust introduced into the system by the media, dust off the sides of the media roll with a soft cloth before loading into the machine

The following factors can negatively impact the stability of the final print:

•Softeners in sleeves and the like can cause the optical brighteners to yellow

•Prints should not be stored next to furniture that is dissipating chemicals i.e. formaldehyde

•Prints should not be stored close to copy machines because of ozone emissions

•The air flow in folders can have a negative impact; a cover sheet will solve this.
