Use Quality Paper

SUMMARY: Quality paper may keep your printer from jamming or getting damaged.

Here is another seemingly common-sense tip, but one that many people don't heed.

Printers are delicate instruments. They can easily jam, and clearing a paper jam from your printer is no picnic. Most of the times, jams cause no permanent damage, but enough of them might put extra wear and tear on your printer. So, my advice is to always use quality paper when printing. It may cost a little more to buy a ream of quality inkjet paper than a "copy paper" alternative, but aren't your documents worth the extra few cents?

(No, quality paper won't guarantee against paper jams, but if you can lower the odds, why not?)
