Is it possible to use ink jet printer paper and transparencies in the Color LaserWriter 12/600 and 12/660?
DISCUSSION Ink jet paper and transparencies have a special coating that absorbs ink and other moisture on contact to avoid bleeding of print when used in an ink jet device. AVOID using ink jet paper in the Color LaserWriter 12/600 and 12/660. These coatings can come off under the extreme heat of the fuser, damaging the fuser rollers and causing poor print quality on subsequent printouts. It can also cause the fuser rollers to dry out upon repeated use with large print jobs. Subsequently, pages will begin to stick and wrap around the fuser rollers, permanently damaging the fuser. Ink jet and non-Apple transparencies may also melt in the fuser area since they are not made to withstand the higher temperatures of the Color LaserWriter. Use only Apple-brand transparencies specifically designed for the Color Laserwriter. |
