Loading Paper in the Multi-purpose Tray
To temporarily use paper not loaded in the paper drawer, load it in the multi-purpose tray.
You can load paper correctly by aligning the paper guides on the multi-purpose tray with the paper.
When using envelopes or paper with logos, be careful of the orientation of the loaded paper and which side is face up.
1
Open the multi-purpose tray.
2
Slide the paper guides to the outside.
Set the width of the paper guides slightly wider than the width of the paper.
3
Fan the paper and align the edges.
Fan the paper thoroughly in both directions, and align the edges on a flat surface.
When you use transparencies or Coated paper, separate each sheet completely so that none of them are stuck together.
4
Load the paper with the print side face down.
Insert the paper until the edge of the paper is against the paper tray.
Make sure the loaded paper does not exceed the load limit line (
: paper other than Coated or Water-Resistant paper,
: Coated or Water-Resistant paper). If the loaded paper exceeds the load limit line, misfeeds or paper jams may occur.
When Loading Tab Paper
Load the Tab paper turned over in the reverse order with the tab facing away from the paper feed direction.
When Printing on the Back Side of Printed Paper (Manual 2-sided Printing)
Flatten the edge of the paper to remove any curls, and load the paper with the back (unprinted) side face down.
You can use only paper printed with this machine.
You cannot print on a side that has been previously printed on.
If a paper jam occurs, load one sheet at a time.
5
Perfectly align the paper guides with the length of the paper.
To improve the image quality, put the hand on the guide at the back and use both hands to position the paper guides.
Paper guides that are aligned and are too loose or too tight can cause misfeeds or a paper jam.
6
By default, when the machine detects paper loaded in the multi-purpose tray, the screen for setting the paper is displayed on the control panel. Set the paper size and type each time you load paper.
