to load the paper tray
1Lower the paper tray, and if necessary, slide the paper-width guide to the
outermost position.
2Tap the stack on a flat surface to align the edges of the paper, and then
check the paper for the following:
–Make sure it is free of rips, dust, wrinkles, and curled or bent edges.
–Make sure all the paper in the stack is the same size and type, unless
you are working with photo paper.
3Insert paper into the paper tray print-side down until it stops. To avoid
bending the paper, make sure you do not push the paper in too far, or
push too hard. To avoid paper jams, be sure to push paper into the tray
just until it stops initially.
If you are using letterhead, insert the top of the page first.
Do not use too much paper. Check that the stack of paper contains several
sheets but is no higher than the top of the paper-width guide.

4Slide the paper-width guide in until it stops at the edge of the paper. Make
sure that the paper stack lies flat in the paper tray and fits under the tab of
the paper-width guide.
