IMPORTANT

|
When loading paper into the multi-purpose tray, align the paper stack neatly between the slide guides. If the paper is not loaded correctly, a paper jam may occur.
If you are printing on heavyweight paper or envelopes using the multi-purpose tray, remove the paper or envelopes, curl their feeding edges upward approximately 3 mm, and then reload the paper or envelopes. Curling the feeding edges enables the rollers to grip the paper or envelopes as they are fed into the multi-purpose tray.

If problems, such as poor print quality or paper jams, occur, try turning the paper stack over and reload it.
