CAUTION

Be sure to take the paper cassette out of the printer before loading paper. If paper is loaded while the paper cassette is partially pulled out, the paper cassette may drop or the printer may become damaged resulting in personal injury.

IMPORTANT

•

The paper cassette cannot be pulled out horizontally. If you try to pull it out forcefully, this may result in damage to the paper cassette.

•

Hold the paper cassette with both hands securely because the cassette is heavy.

•

Place the removed paper cassette on a ﬂat and stable surface.

When changing the size of the paper to be loaded, adjust the length of the paper cassette and change the positions of the paper guides.

● When loading paper in Cassette 1, adjust the length of the paper cassette according to the paper to be loaded.

When loading paper at sizes of A4, B5, A5, Letter, and Executive, shorten the paper cassette. When loading paper at sizes of A3, B4, A4R, Ledger (11 x 17), Legal, and LetterR, extend the paper cassette. To adjust the length of the paper cassette, align the lock release lever with " " to release the lock, slide the paper cassette by holding the rear portion of the paper cassette, and then align the lock release lever with " " to lock the cassette.

● While holding the lock release lever of the side paper guides, slide

the guides to the size mark for the paper to be loaded.

Cassette 1 Cassette 2

CAUTION

When loading paper, take care not to cut your hands with the edges of the paper.

IMPORTANT

•

Be sure to check if the paper guide is at the position of the size of the loaded paper. If the paper guide is set at a wrong position, this may result in misfeeds.

•

If you use paper that has been poorly cut, multiple sheets of paper may be fed at once. In this case, fan the paper thoroughly, and then align the edges of the stack on a hard, ﬂat surface.

NOTE

To print letterhead paper or paper printed with a logo, load the paper in the proper orientation according to the following instructions: (: Feeding direction)
