C2500 Media Types

Art,
It will do some but not on a regular basis. We had to replace a c4500 that was doing lots of thicker coated stocks with a Canon. I just sold a C811DN and I am certain the brochure on that product says "glossy". I also have the recomnended paper chart from Ricoh and will try to send tomorrow if I can find it.

Never thought I'd see the day we'd replace a Ricoh color machine with a Canon to get better media handling .

A good rule of thumb is to run no more than about 25% of the machine's recommended monthly volume on "special" paper (e.g. heavy-weight or coated).

N.B.-The paper recommendations in this file for the MP C3500/C4500 apply for the C811DN as well...

Good Point. The PSG is usually a really good reference for supported paper types...See attached. You will find the same information posted above on pg.22.
