AR-C150/160/250 Colour Copier Recommended Paper
Most colour copier Manufacturers recommend that one of the super-calendared
brands of paper is used on their machines, of which there are four main
manufacturers, Neusiedler, Tullis Russell, ENSO & Aussedat Rey.
Sharp UK has gone to considerable lengths to test all four super-calendared brands
of paper and found that all of these products are compatible with the Sharp AR-C

required).
For the best results (maximum reliability and performance), Neusiedler Colour Copy
paper should be used for both copying and printing where a superior finish is
required.
