NOTE

IMPORTANT

NOTE

When you are using Legal size paper, press and hold the universal guide release button (1) as you slide out the front of the paper tray.

e Gently put the paper into the paper tray

printing surface face down and top edge in first. Check that the paper is flat in the tray.

d Fan the stack of paper well to avoid

paper jams and misfeeds.

Always make sure that the paper is not curled or wrinkled.

Be careful not to push the paper in too far; it may lift at the back of the tray and cause paper feed problems.

If you want to add paper before the tray is empty, remove the paper from the tray and combine it with the paper you are adding. Always fan the stack of paper well before loading it in the tray. If you add paper without fanning the stack, the machine may feed multiple pages.

IMPORTANT

Loading envelopes 2

About envelopes 2

 Use envelopes that weigh from 20 to 25 lb

(80 to 95 g/m

 Some envelopes require you to make

margin settings in the application you are using. Make sure you do a test print first before printing multiple envelopes.

DO NOT use the following types of envelopes, as they will not feed correctly:

• That are of a baggy construction.

• That have windows.

• That are embossed (have raised writing on them).

• That have clasps or staples.

Loading envelopes 2

a Before loading, press the corners and

sides of envelopes to make them as flat as possible.

• That are pre-printed on the inside.

Glue Double flaps

Occasionally you may experience paper feed problems caused by the thickness, size and flap shape of the envelopes you are using.

If envelopes are “double-feeding,” put one envelope in the paper tray at a time.

Loading paper

b Put envelopes in the paper tray with the

printing surface face down. If the envelope flaps are on the long edge, load the envelopes in the tray with the flap on the left, as shown in the illustration. Gently press and slide the paper width guides (1) and paper length guide (2) to fit the size of the envelopes.

If you have problems printing on envelopes with the flap on the short edge, try the following:

a Open the envelope flap. b Put the envelope into the paper tray with

the printing surface face down and the flap positioned as shown in the illustration.

c Select Reverse Print (Windows

The machine ejects paper with the printed surface face up onto the paper tray at the front of the machine. When you use transparencies or glossy paper, remove each sheet at once to prevent smudging or paper jams.

Chapter 2

Acceptable paper and other print media

The print quality can be affected by the type of paper you use in the machine.

To get the best print quality for the settings you have chosen, always set the Paper Type to match the type of paper you load.

You can use plain paper, inkjet paper (coated paper), glossy paper, transparencies and envelopes.

We recommend testing various paper types before buying large quantities.

For best results, use Brother paper.

 When you print on inkjet paper (coated

paper), transparencies and glossy paper, be sure to choose the correct print media in the printer driver’s Basic tab or the machine’s Paper Type setting.

(See Paper Type on page 15.)

 When you print on Brother Photo paper,

load one extra sheet of the same photo paper in the paper tray. An extra sheet has been included in the paper package for this purpose.

 When using transparencies or photo

paper, remove each sheet at once to prevent smudging or paper jams.

 Avoid touching the printed surface of the

paper immediately after printing; the surface may not be completely dry and may stain your fingers.

Recommended print media 2

To get the best print quality, we suggest using the Brother paper in the table.

We recommend using 3M Transparency Film when you print on transparencies.

Brother paper

Paper Type Item

Premium Plus Glossy Photo

 Letter BP71GLTR

 4"  6" BP71GP20

Handling and using print media 2

 Store paper in its original packaging and

keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat.

 Avoid touching the shiny (coated) side of

the photo paper. Load photo paper with the shiny side facing down.

 Avoid touching either side of the

transparency paper because it absorbs water and perspiration easily, and this may cause decreased output quality. Transparencies designed for laser printers/copiers may stain your next document. Use only transparencies recommended for inkjet printing.

IMPORTANT

DO NOT use the following kinds of paper:

• Damaged, curled, wrinkled, or irregularly shaped

1 0.08 in. (2 mm) or greater curl may

cause jams to occur.

• Extremely shiny or highly textured

• Paper that cannot be arranged uniformly when stacked
