Preprinted papers such as letterhead must be able to withstand temperatures up to 175°C
(347°F) without melting or releasing hazardous emissions. Use inks that are not affected by
the resin in toner or the silicone in the fuser. Inks that are oxidation-set or oil-based should
meet these requirements. Latex inks may melt.
