2-6 Loading Pap er The moisture content of the paper varies with the relative humidity in the room. When the relative humidity is high and the paper absorbs moisture, the paper edges exp and, becoming wavy in appearance. When the relative humidity is low and the paper loses moisture, the edges shrink and tighten, and print contrast may suffer .
Loading Paper 2-7 Special Paper The following types of special paper can be used: • Thin paper (60 to 64 g/m²) • Thick paper (90 to 220 g/m²) • Colored paper • Recycled paper • Overhead pr.
