Load paper to the single-sheet slot (Tray 1)

Introduction

The following information describes how to load paper in Tray 1. This tray holds 1 sheet of paper, use it to print single-page documents, documents that require multiple paper types, or envelopes.
NOTE: To avoid paper jams:
Never add or remove paper from the tray during printing.
Use paper that is not wrinkled, folded, or damaged.
1. Move the paper width guides in the single-sheet
priority feed slot outward.
2. Place the top edge of the sheet at the opening, and
then adjust the side guides so that they lightly touch the sheet, but do not bend it.
16 Chapter 2 Paper trays ENWW
3. Insert the single sheet into the slot and hold it. The
printer will pull the sheet partially into the paper path. For information about how to orient the paper, see Tray 1 paper orientation on page 18.
NOTE: Depending on the size of the paper, you
might need to support the sheet with two hands until the sheet advances into the printer.
4. At the computer, begin the printing process from
the software application. Make sure that the driver is set to the correct paper type and size for the paper being printed from the single-sheet priority feed slot.
