Load the priority input tray (Tray 1)
NOTE: When you add new paper, make sure that you remove all of the paper from the input tray and
straighten the stack. Do not fan the paper. This reduces jams by preventing multiple sheets of paper from
feeding through the product at one time. Use paper that is not wrinkled, folded, or damaged.
1.Load the paper face-up with the top forward in
the input tray.
The orientation of the paper in the tray varies
depending on the type of print job. For additional
information, see
Table 2-1 Tray 1 paper
orientation on page 17.
2.Adjust the paper guides until they are snug
against the paper.
